Ryker and mom coloring eggs...

We started our night of coloring eggs by baking some bunny sugar cookies.Ryker had fun helping me place them on the cookie sheet.... then we started on coloring our eggs. Ryker was a lot of help if you know what I mean.... he wanted to put the eggs in all by his self we just had to keep telling him he had to do it softly so it wouldn't SPLASH all over !!! he did a good job.. He also had fun coloring on the eggs before they got colored. We put his name on a couple of the eggs and he thought that was cool to see his name on a egg....

I love Easter for all the yummy candy !! Happy Easter everyone !!!!

On Friday Ryker and I went to to Kangaroo Zoo with some friends.. Then after wards we went to Taco Amigo for lunch. In Taco Amigo there were some fire fighters there eating lunch. They later asked if the boys wanted to go look at the FIRE TRUCK !! of course they wanted to ... the firemen were so cute with them they let them look inside the truck and hold the hose and the one guy even put his big hat on Rykers head and Ryker said "it's to heavy" it was cute they loved it!!! before we left the one guy pulled out his wallet and gave them all a fire fighter sticker they were all sorts of excited.....Thanks Meagan for inviting us we had a good time .Let's get together again soon.....

Ryker "This one has a "R" on it" .... Mom " then it's yours put it in your bag"

Getting hotter and hotter......

My Mom wanted to do a egg hunt for the kids before Paige and Isaac went home on Sunday. It's so fun seeing Ryker running around trying to find the eggs with his initial "R" on it, he's getting to big.

{ Twilight night at Wal-mart }

Waiting so patiently by the secret door !!!

Yes I was one of the crazy people at the Riverton Wal-mart to get the Twilight movie that came out Friday night @ midnight..We got lucky and got told by a Wal-mart worker what doors to go wait by..As soon as those doors opened we grabbed our movie and headed for the front of the store. We were 4th in line at one of the registers but had to wait till midnight to actually be able to buy it... it was fun to see all the crazy people... But I guess I was one of them LOL !!!! No but there were some really strange people there all dressed up like vampires with cat eye and red contacts also there was a kid that thought he actually looked like EDWARD !! Not even close:) Thanks girls it was fun..

Talon just chilling all by himself... to cute !!

Friday Rykers cousins from St.George were in town and wanted to came play.So I went and got Costco pizza(the kids favorite) and went to the park. My friend Jana met us at the park by her house. The kids had a lot of fun together. Jana and I kept getting bugged at the other kids at the park and the mothers that don't watch them !! such a pet peeve !! people watch your kids don't let them throw sand at other kids and heaven forbid putting sand on the slides!!! hah sorry had to vent because it drove us nuts....

Hard times.....

My First doctor apt with Maternal -fetal medicine I was 8 weeks along they did a ultrasound and said that they measured me being 6 weeks 2 days! I was confused knowing when my last cycle was... She worried me when she said that it either looks like a really early pregnancy or I could possibly be miscarrying!! I was so worried and they told me not to worry that the sack was nice and round and that I could just not be as far along as I thought ... So they told me to come back in 2 weeks and they would check me again..

10 weeks:

I went back on Tuesday March 10th and I told my husband he was coming with me this time because I didn't want to hear and more bad news along.. By this time the sack had started to co lapse it no longer looked nice and round it was more a oval shape and they should have been able to see something and hear something at this point.....sadly they never found a heart beat and I could tell they were trying to prepare me for what they were going to tell me...

My doctor just looked at me and said I don't think this pregnancy is going to be successful and I think your going to miscarry.. I was so devastated and just layed there thinking this wasn't happening to me ... After she left the room I got off the bed and walked over to Chace and just cry ed in his chest, with tears in his eyes he told me sorry and that there was nothing we can do and that he loved me..

2 days later Thursday March 12th I saw my OB doctor.. He looked over the ultrasound and notes that maternal-fetal medicine sent over.. He was sad that this was happening . He gave me some medicine that I took at home that night to get the miscarriage process going . Ned less to say Chace and I didn't get any sleep that night ... Thanks to Chaces mom she came and got Ryker when he woke up so Chace and I could get some rest...

We are so sad that this has happened but we are dealing with it day by day. I know heavenly father doesn't give you anything more then what you cant handle. I really believe we grow and become stronger through our experiences we face. I have faith that I will be blessed with another beautiful child some day.. We are so thankful for what we do have and that is Ryker we love him so much and glad he is apart of our family....

**Thanks to my family,friends.neighbors and ward members that showed us so much love and concern through this hard time..We love you !!!
