JETTA CAME HOME!!

Jetta Jade came home on her due date May 5th. It was the happiest day of my life. Ever since it has been a hapy little fairy tale come true.

The hosptial held her prisoner

Jetta had to stay in the NICU for an entire month. These are all pics of us waiting for her to get to come home. Jetta had anemic problems, keeping her body temperature warm, eating (we had to feed hr through a tube, and then blood in her diapers. Of course they could not let her go home until she wasbetter. Having a child in the hospital works a number on your heart strings. It was the most excruciating thing I have ever had to go through.

BORN APRIL5

These are JETTA JADE's first days in the NICU

I look Huge

I defiantly look like I am in my 3rd trimester. Being 8 months along I should. But people still say I don't show very much for as far along as I am. I just think their jealous cuz they don't look as good as I do when they were this far along. Besides I am sick of people telling me that.

Another update on the baby. The specialist said that the baby has a cyst above her bladder. The Dr.'s are hoping it will go away as fast as it came. But they don't act as if it is life threatening or anything scary so I am not worried about it. She is doing great other wise. Still too small, but like I said b4 i am OK pushing out a small baby.

Paincation to McCall

Casey and I wanted one last getaway b4 we had the baby so we went to the McCall winter festival. It was cold and the ice sculptures were kinda lame. Plus I froze as we waited for the fireworks. We went to a tacky place to eat called Lardo's Never go there. The meat was not cooked all the way. So I complained a lot. Needless to say neither one of us had too much fun. But we actually do have a couple pictures that looks like we might actually be enjoying ourselves. We went snowshoeing the next day. Of course being pregnant I got tired and had to stop a lot to rest. It took forever to get out of the forest. But that was our vacation that was not too fun. Why people like to go out stinkin fresh air I will never understand. How is sitting on a cold potty freezing your behind off fun? Or walking in the snow till you get blisters on your feet enjoyable?

I'm finally showing! barely

I am going into 21 weeks and I am just now starting to show. I know some of you are disappointed that I don't look like I have a basketball under my shirt, but what do you want me to do about it????? DON'T HATE ME BECUASE I'M BEAUTIFUL! I am sure I will get bigger faster than I would like.

Christmas in our 1st house

We are excited to celebrate the holidays in our new home. I will be enjoying them very much. Especially now that I am done with my Christmas shopping! It will be a highly enjoyable stress free Christmas. I am asking Santa for a camcorder this year so we can capture lots of moments in our baby girl's life. As you can see I am still not showing too much if you look underneath Casey's hand you can see a tiny itty bity pooch. I am O.K. with that, it just means less belly I will need to loose after our daughter comes. Yay me for not having too loose too much weight!(So far) Also I don't have many maternity clothes. But to sum it all up things are doing wonderfully for the Christmas season.

Merry Christmas!

Her Blessing dress

Guess what was on sale for $10! Amazing huh. I was thrilled to find one so cheap. I love how it was made to add petals at the bottom of the tulle. I had too much fun playing around with it. It is so fun getting ready for a little girl! Casey is afraid that I am going to spend too much money on stuff for the baby. But I tell him if we didn't find out the gender of the baby I would not be going out buying her things already. I originally didn't not want to find out what her sex is but Casey wanted did. Guess who won.

Ribbons & Curls I'm getting my GIRL!

The one on the top she is bent over in half doing gymnastics. The one on the right she is showing her identity to the world. Then the one that looks like a scary skull she is yawning! You can see 3 of her little fingers, it looks like she is going to cover her mouth. How lady like already. Than the last one of the typical profile view. See she is already super cute!

Snow in Boise????

Weird huh. We got bout 2 inches last night. Yes it is pretty. Hopefully it wont all be gone by tonight cuz that is how it works around here. I do kinda miss having lots of snow to play in and snowman to build like when i was a kid-o. But if u look at the porch fence u can see how much we actually got. Casey did not even take his mustang 2 work cuz it is horrible on the roads. Anyways this is the adventure this week folks.
