Springs Creek Trail

We love to enjoy the Mountains of Colorado. Before we had Kyla we spent much of our Saturdays in the mountains with our Jeep. We sold the Jeep before Kyla was born. We have missed four wheeling so much that we have bought a LandCruiser. We just have not been able to modify it as we would like for our adventures.


Last Saturday we went with some friends on Springs Creek Trail. They both have modified LandCruisers, which ours will look like someday. Unfortunately since our Cruiser is stock we took Zane’s truck, which did surprisingly well.

Unexpected Family Reunion

Well, we just got back from Manti, Utah! Zane’s Aunt Idell passed away last week and we attended her Funeral on Wednesday in Manti. Idell is Zane’s biological Grandmother and he has so many wonderful memories of her and the times they shared together, especially Arrowhead hunting. We love and will miss her greatly and await the day that we can be reunited.

Zane’s family is spread out and it is not very often that we are all able to get together. It was so great to be able to see everyone and Kyla met many of her cousins! We hope that the next time we get together it will be sooner and under different circumstances.
We Love You All!!

Playing Frisbee Golf!!

We love to play frisbee golf. The other day we went to a course close to the house, it’s only a 9 hole course. Kyla enjoys walking with us and trying to throw a frisbee at each tee! She waits till we have all gone and then says, “Kyla’s turn”.

Throwing Rocks

We went to visit Grandma the other day. It was such a nice day out, not too hot! We went to Fox Run Park to walk around the ponds and let Kyla throw rocks, well mostly let Kyla throw rocks. Kyla loves throwing rocks in the water! Mommy forgot to put sunscreen on Kyla, but luckily her little sunburn went away the next day! Whew, thought we were going to be miserable for several days.

Torta Fritas with Abuelita!!

I just downloaded pictures from my camera and forgot about these. These were taken almost a month ago. What a treat to spend time with the Abuelos!

Kyla enjoyed having the Abuelos over. She had a lot of fun helping Abuelita make Torta Fritas. She was so cute trying to roll out the dough!

Well, it’s been awhile since I have posted. I haven’t been feeling the best lately (which is not a bad thing), so I haven’t been breaking out the camera as often.

Here is the reason I have not felt my best!!

We are expecting another Baby Eagar! I am due at the end of January. The ultrasound below was taken at my first Doctor’s visit in June. It is always so reassuring to see the little bean. You can barely see it, but the little white line on the bean is the heartbeat! I had another appointment today, and the heartrate was 160 bpm! Kyla thought it was fun to listen to the heartbeat, however, she was a bit nervous when we were walking back to the exam room. I had to reassure her that we were there for me and not for her!

Now to wait and see what the sex is!! Somedays Kyla says its a “baby sister” and other days she says its a “baby broder”.

Wash My Hands, MOMMY!!!

Earlier today I was in the kitchen washing dishes. I hear Kyla come in and say, “Wash Hands, Mommy”. I look down at her and she is standing there with yogurt all over her hands, arms, face, hair, and clothes. I told her to stand still and I went to look at what her little hands had created. She was eating, (more playing then eating), yogurt on her table. I hurried and grabbed the camera and took some pictures.

You have to love Children’s creativity!

Home from the Hospital

Well Kyla spent the past weekend in the Hospital with pneumonia. She had her 2 year check up on Thursday the 7th and she was coughing and wheezing a bit. We went home and gave her nebulizer treatments and she seemed to do better. However, through the night she got worse. By Friday morning we took her to the ER and they hooked her up to Oxygen and gave her more nebulizer treatments. They did a chest x-ray and some blood tests. The ER Dr. told us she had pneumonia (bacterial).

We then waited for a room and Kyla was admitted to the Hospital. They tried to give her IV’s for the antibiotics, but they kept blowing out. She ended up having to have shots. Made me feel terrible.
We went home on Sunday with Oxygen. Since we had to cancel her birthday party we had a small get together on Sunday evening for cake and ice cream.

Thank You for all the visits in the Hospital. Kyla definitely enjoyed them.
