Ive been tagged

I've been tagged by my cousin in law, Amy McAllister (the original). Apparently what this means is now I have to post 6 facts/habits about myself and then tag others to do the same.

1. I have been bungy jumping 8 times. At one point in my life I was a dare devil. I use to beg my dad if he would take me skydiving, but I was too young. He thought that bungy jumping would be a fair compromise. When we were on vacation in Salt Lake one year there was this place called the Gallaria. You could pay for the hour of bungy jumping. My sister Tawni and I were the only ones there. I went about two times for every time that she went. It was a blast. Needless to say I wouldnt do it again, especially now that I have kids.

2. I HATE the word Moist. That is all that needs to be said about that.

3. I'm not really into music. I will listen to music, but I dont know it very well. Dont ever ask me who sings a song, cause I probably wont know. I have only been to one concert in my life, and it was 311 and I left within 30 min. of it starting.

4.I once ate an entire box of brownies by myself....opps.

5.When I was little I had a lot of seizures. They never found out why I was having them, but the last one that I had was when I was in 7th grade.

6. I use to play the flute...I thought it would be the COOL thing to do...needless to say it didnt help my nerdy reputation in Junior High.

Becky, Nicole and Nikki B... Tag your it.

Bathtime

Emma and Marcus took their frist bath together last night. It was kind of funny. Emma now knows what teasing means and she kept trying to splash him in the face. When I would tell her not to do that, she would say "Mom, Im just teasing". Marcus took it like a trooper and didnt cry one bit. Here are some pictures of the two together.

Signs of Winter

I love this time of year. Dont get me wrong, I dont love the snow or cold weather so much, but I do love basketball. Sometimes I forget how great basketball is...two hours, not four...intense fans (not as intense as Amy talked about at Ohio State)...the smell of popcorn and hot dogs...but yet you dont have to deal with the sunscreen one week and the winter coats the next or the cranky kids who have been away from home too long. BYU basketball games just seem so much more doable to me than football games, not that I dont love the football games, I just love the convinience of basketball. We enjoyed our first basketball games in the past couple of weeks. Here are some pictures of Emma enjoying the fun.

During the last basketball game that we were at Emma went down to give the players fives when they were going off of the court and Lee Cummard gave Emma his sweat(wrist) band. She was pretty excited.

Emmas Pictures

We got Emmas Pictures taken yesterday. I thought that she did a great job. It turende out really well. Take a look and let me know what you think. I cannot believe how big she is getting. The other day she was talking to Eric and he was telling her where something was. She replied by saying "I think it is on the table, actually." I dont know where she discovered the word Actually, but it is really funny when she says it.

Emma's Baby Pic

This is a pic of Emma when she was 6 weeks.

This is Marcus at the hospital.

A couple of you were interested to see if Marcus looks like Emma did when she was a baby...here are the pics....

I think he is starting to look more like she did as his features are becoming more defined.

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween Everyone. We just got home from the big sugar fest. We decided to take Emma Trick or Treating to a couple of friends house before dinner (bad Idea). Then we went to get Pizza for dinner and then went to our Wards Trunk or Treat. She got so much candy. I only let her have 5 pieces and then we put the candy away for the night. Hopefully I can keep her from devouring all of her candy before the end of tomorrow. Here are some pictures of her princess escapade.

Halloween Party #2

Eric, Marcus and I went to my friend Becky's Halloween Party on tonight. We had a lot of fun. Can you guess Eric and I's Costume. I will give you a hint... It is a TV couple. Well, we were Peg and Al Bundy from Married with Children. It was a lot of fun and we enjoyed the good food, good company and fun conversations. Here are some pictures from the party.

Halloween Party

Here are some pictures from Al and Ashleighs Halloween Party in Oct. It was a blast. The kids had a lot of fun too.

Mom Visits to help with Baby

Here are some pictures of when my mom came to visit to help with the new baby. I started to go into a panic the first day that Eric went back to work after we had baby number two. I didnt know how I was going to shower, or get any cleaning done.
Luckily my mom came out for a week to help me handle the load. We also had a lot of fun. All is well and we are handling the new family.

Props to all the Mama's

Well, It feels like just yesterday that I was in the hospital. Marcus is already growing up. His features are starting to form and we are starting to see more and more of his personality. He is a delight to have in our home and we are enjoying every minute.
We had a scare this week, but all is well now. On Wednesday I had been having headaches for 3 days (which I never get) and they started to shoot down my neck and my neck got very stiff. Anyways, Wednesday night we went into the Insta Care and and when the checked me out they sent me right to the Emergency room. When we got there they did a spinal tap to make sure that I didnt have Meningitis. Needless to say I didnt and they sent me home (still in pain). The next day my father-in-law called and told me to call my OB Doctor so I did and they decided that I had Mastitis. I have to say it is the most painful sickness that I have ever had. I am now on day 2 of the Antibiotics and they seem to bee helping a lot, but I think I still have a ways to go until recovery. Lynn and Jodie have taken Emma for the weekend so that I could relax and get feeling better. Props to all of you who have had Mastitis before....it is miserable and you are all so strong.
