Minus a Couple Chompers

On Thursday I had my top wisdom teeth out. I had my bottom ones out when I was 18 so I thought I was out of the woods. Dad took me and was dead convinced it would take longer than it did. From when we walked in to when we got back in the truck was only 40 minutes. Gotta love general anesthesia! I loved waking up and having it over and done with. Dad was so sweet and stopped and got me some things I needed and my prescriptions. How cute is this little guy?!? He brought it out and said it was for me to hug.

Mom came over after work and stayed with me that night as you're not supposed to be alone for 12 hours after going under. She babysat Roo at my house on Friday and we both got to fawn over her. It wasn't too bad as it was only the 2 of us as normally we are fighting over her.

I healed amazingly with only a sore jaw as of now. If anyone is in need of good oral surgeon then call David Smoot. He is the best!

Mom and Dad are so good to their spinster daughter!

Grandma in the Mountains

Grandma Nelson was here for Christmas this year. She usually comes up and it wouldn't be Christmas without Grandma. Christmas Eve Grandma got Sydney and that was it....she was in heaven. The other great-grand kids were vying for her attention as well. Brooke was so worried about Grandma in the Mountains and where she was and what she was doing. It's always fun having Grandma around!

A Warm Christmas

I made Sydney a blanket (my first ever quilt) and Brooke wanted one too. I asked her what she wanted for Christmas and she said her 'special blanket'. Mom had Brooke and Cody one afternoon before Thanksgiving and they met me at Joann's to pick out fabric. I had promised Brooke a shopping trip so she could pick out the fabric herself. She picked the stars.....something I would have never picked!



While we were shopping Cody asked for a blanket as well. He wanted a soft hockey blanket. He picked the flannel for the top and I later got the fleece for the back. Fleece is a bugger to quilt on!



I think they turned out pretty cute. I did them both pretty basic as they are growing so quickly and I didn't want anything that they would grow out of too fast.

I Hate Feet!

Mom and I went to Kamas on Sunday on our way home from Fairview to see Sydney. We couldn't believe it when we first saw Susie. She was in pre pregnancy jeans! We took them to lunch at the diner in Oakley and mmmm it was yummy. Cute place with the best homemade potato chips.

Mom and I fought over Sydney the whole time we were there. I hadn't seen her as much and Mom is going up today and tomorrow so I took my time with her. I tried changing a diaper but got freaked out over her hip. I didn't want to be the one to pop it out. Then the girl peed on me....now we have officially bonded.

When I was changing her diaper I did the most unexpected thing, I kissed her feet! As much as I hate feet and I was kissing them. Boy she must have a hold on me!
