Thanksgiving,...Black Friday....long post

Well for thanksgiving we got up did the usual morning routine put the kids down for naps and than Jason had to run to check a job. Madison came down and hung out which was good cause she got Rylee out for me since am not spouse to be lifting my kids for 6-8 weeks but thats all ready been broken a couple of times its just so hard. Yes I've had a lot of help and for the most part had someone here everyday Thank you a ton to my mother in law Darla! and my parents who have helped, oh and of course thanks to my ward ladies who brought meals oh yeah and my grandma Hartsfield who made me my favorite ice cream. Its been very nice with the help and made it easier but its still hard not to take care or pick up your kids. Any ways than when Jaosn got home and Bridger woke up from his nap we got everyone ready and headed to my grandparrents Hartsfield's house for thanksgiving, it was YUMMY thanks grandma and mom for doing the hole diner. It was nice cause it was me and my fam, my bro and his fam, my mom and mad, grandpa and grandma and my Aunt and her kids. It was a great thanksgiving. And a really great diner, all though Bridger refused to eat anything but the rolls and so i had to make him a sandwhich. After diner we hung out for a bit and than we needed to leave before pie cause Jason wanted to try to make it to his mom's to see his dad before he left to go hunting so we took off and went to see Jason's family. We missed Rick by 20 mins.! Sorry Rick we would have loved to see you. Well we stayed there for a hr or so and had yummy bannana cream pie, watched of course the friends thanksgiving episodes and played a game. Than left there and went home, the kids were so tired but for some reason when we got home they were wild and crazy and so Jason chased them around the house for a bit to get the energy out and than put them to bed. After that Lauren called me and my dad was up at there house looking at the ads and trying to convince Lauren and me in to going to toys r us at midnight with him, we were all ready planning to do the 5 am shopping at target and maybe go to walmart but than Lauren's check got post dated so she wasn't going to go so I wasn't going to go but than at Jason's mom house I decided to go since Jessie and Shelly were going but I was just going to go to Target at 5am with them. Any ways so Jason was playing his game by the time I got off the phone so I decided I would go up there and talk to them. When I got to Lauren's my mom came a droped Mad off because Mad wanted to go for some reason, I warned her it would be cold and a long night but she wanted to go, than my dad came back over and we looked through the ads again, after a hr of dad trying to convince us to go for him and me saying I wouldn't go for him but if he really wanted we would go with him. We all decided to just pull a all nighter and go to toys r us at midnight, than target at 5. So we got to toys r us at 10 to 11pm. We got in line and sent dad for hot chocolate, when he got back he actually saw people he knew in the front of the line so he went up with them, while we stayed in our spot. So when the line started to go people were pushing a little behind us so Lauren and the lady the in front of that we made friends with decided to put Mad in her shopping cart and when the line was moving more the cart got stuck for a min, so a bunch of people went around us. Lauren told one of the lady's to move back to her spot and she started yelling at us and telling us she could go around us if our cart got stuck so at that point I was pissed and started yelling back at her telling her she needed to get back to her spot and that it was really rude to go in front of us and that the only reason we got stuck is cause we put my little sis in the cart so she was safe and she was yelling again well thats your problem am like are you kiding me your a rude person and you need to move back to your spot she than goes I've been here in line for a 1hr and half behind you and I go yeah BEHIND US!! So move your but back, her little friend starts yelling I need medication and need to take my pills. So this little asain girl so funny she was behind them from their originall spot starts yelling butters, losers, cops and all kinds of stuff she was yelling way loud it was funny! So than they go thanks for calling us a loser nice christmas spirit and were like it wasn't us it was the lady behind you who is pissed you butted us. So they moved back to their spot, it was seriously so funny!!! But am sure they all so moved cause their were lots of employee's and police montoring making sure no one butted and pushed! So either way they probably would have moved specially were so many of us saw them cut in front of us, the cops and employees may even would have sent them to the back of the line for it. Oh well. Oh and after they moved the one lady got in my face and was like I hope you have a merry christmas so I said back to her merry christmas yourself, mine will be great since you moved back to your spot and now I can get my kids their presents! Oh it was fun and crazy!! When we got in to toys r us it was so hard to move and at one point Lauren and Mad went a diffrent way and so I just went and got in line so we had a spot for check out. We got everything on our lists. The line to check out was the worst though, at first we were moving fast but than when we got down by the baby section they decided to make it wrap through that section and people started butting and cheating the line. So my dad took me and the cart to go check for any other lines cause at one point two lines were going but their was nothing. Than after probably seriously a hr or so Lauren calls and says she still hasn't moved since we left to go see if we could find a faster way and I could see the people that were right behind me in the line coming up close to the front of the check out line so am like how haven't you moved Lauren if their coming up to me and she said a bunch of people left the line. Am like that's nice they got in some how or butted some how. So when they came up on me I was like what happened how'd you get a head of my sis in law, see I had made friends with them and helped them find a woody doll when they were all gone, she sadi the lady behind them was really nice, after a min I go would you mind if I get in with you guys she's like nope that's fine you just have to let the ladys who let us in go a head of you am like that's fine with me. So we got in THANK goodness or we would have never made it out of tuys r us tell 5am! I do feel bad for butting but than again we got butted so much especially in the check out line. Cause they were so nice I helped them push their boxes of stuff to the register, they were really nice and when they left they even found me and said have a merry christmas am like you too, oh and I tipped them off that target was doing price matches. After we got out of toys r us it was 3am so we stoped at a gas sation got more hot chocolate and some for Jessie, Shelly and Kent cause they were all in line at target. We got down to them at target and hung out in line we also went over what each of us needed and who would go where so we could get all we needed, Kent and Jessie went to the DVD section, Lauren and Shelly and Mad went to the toy section and on the way to that section they grabbed a presnet I needed for Jason and a portable DVD player for Shelly while I got the shopping carts for them, my dad went for his TV and than was to come help with toys, Dorothy and her mom and Erica got to target and got in line with us Dorothy needed to get a hard drive which they had a presnet my dad needed for Barbie right their so I asked Dor to garb it if she could. It was carzy! When the line started to go everyone was pushing and running that a cop was yelling slow down and he stoped us which split Lauren, Mad, Dor , Dor's mom and Erica from us they got stopped, Shelly, my dad, Jess, Kent and me got to go. I stoped to wait for them and than he let them go and we got through the doors and everyone took off running like crazy I just walked over to the carts grabbed two and walked to were Shelly, Mad and Lauren were grabbing a bunch of stuff and luckly I guess Lauren found a shopping cart for her. Than we all ran to the toys Shelly went for a bunch of stuff, I grabbed the bat caves we needed, Lauren went for something else and than we all went for the transformers and than we got the two barbie sets Shelly and Lauren needed, it was seriously crazy! after that we meet in the middle of asile were no sales were to make sure each got what they needed and to meet Jess who grabbed the TV seasons and DVD's we needed. Than my dad left to get in line and I went to meet him while Lauren went to grab slippers for AJ. We were in the front of the line, oh yeah so Dor didn't get her hard drive cause most people went there or something and she had the last one of the present my dad needed but someone grabbed it from her. Crazy people!! As were about to check out me and Lauren noticed the batcave we grabbed didn't have the villians they spouse to have for the sale so she ran back to get the ones with the villians and luckly she garbbed the last two! LUCKY!! Than as am about to pay Dor was a couple people behind us and she yells I found the present your dad needed, I guess someone set it down right in front of her, I hurry and grab it and have the lady ring it in to my stuff. YEAH we got all we needed again. We decided since we had time to go to Walmart so we went there and again still got everything on our lists there. At target I didn't get any of my price match stuff only my target list stuff oh except for one gift. But I got all the stuff i was going to price match at walmart. I got a couple of things for Jason and Bridger's woody since I guess the woody wasn't on sale at toys r us tell 5am so i just got it at walmart and priced matched it. It was awesome oh and dad scored again and got the huge item he needed! That we thought for sure would be gone. Dor, her mom and Erica meet up with us again at walmart. It was fun. Oh and Mad did great tell Wlamrt by Walmart she was so tired she crashed in the shopping cart. Than we all went home. I finally slept when Jason got home from checking a job that day at about 2pm. It was a long night fun and crazy! But well worth it, I saved like $100 or more and my dad saved $400 at toys r us and who knows at target and walmart I'd probably say at least $500 or more but who knows. Oh I was so mad I forgot my camera or I cold have pics of it all and specially my dad car and mine, we took two cars and my dads expidetion was seriously jammed full his drivers seat was smashed all the way to the front, my car was all the way full with me, Lauren and Mad and all the stuff. It was funny. Good thing dad decided we should take two cars we were just going to go in his car. Smart thinking. Well thats it for now, it was a great thanksgiving and black friday, a little bumped I didn't go to the mall though but oh well, next yr I want be as bad cause my shoulder will be healed. Next yr I'll be more on my game to get stuff and grab. Am so excited for christmas, I seriously can't wait to see Bridger's face when he gets stuff that he wants. We've gone to toys r us like 3 times and he plays with the stuff he wants but never leaves with it or plays with it at home so he'll be excited and I just can't wait for his face to light up and him to go crazy! Its going to be great. Its all I care about, Bridger, Ry and Jason being spoiled, I could care less about me. Oh before I end this extremly long post I just wanted to say what am thankful for, am thankful for my amazing husband and kids, my family, my good friends and just life in general. Am so lucky to have such a amazing family, its all I've ever wanted to have a husband to love and pamper, great kids. Its the best thing in the world. If that's all I ever have is Jason and our kids am good. I could careless where we live or what we have as long as I've got them. Thank you Jason for everything you do, you are my rock my everything. I love you!!! FOREVER!!!

My surgery...any updates, oh and a catch up from right before my surgery

Alright so on the 10th we left the house and got up to primary just me and Jason at 6am for my surgery. I was extremely scared to death this time, I guess I kind of cracked and am sick of surgery's and needles. I remember when my mom took me home after being the hospital for like 2 weeks after having Rylee I was all like yeah am so done with hospitals and needles and am not coming back for anything for yrs. And than 9 months later here we are again. So they put a IV in my right hand It hurt pretty bad this time, guess my veins weren't ready for more poking. I was actually so scared and crying that I told the guy who was in charge of my anesthesia that I wanted him to put me out and wheel me down to the operating room instead of me walk down there, see when your a child they gas you a little well enough to basically put you to sleep in the patient room and than they wheel you down but when your older they have you walk down with your family to the operating room and say good bye outside the room than you walk in and get on the operating table for them its scray and horrible and I couldn't handle it this time. So he was nice enough that they got me bed that wheels and I gave my loves to my dad and Jason and than he put stuff in my IV and I can't remember a thing after that. I woke up and remember I think my dad saying Jason's on his way back from work. But I seriously can't remember much from that day I remember seeing Jason, my mom, my dad and my grandpa and grandma Hartsfield but don't remember anything else or what was said. Oh my mom did stay the night with me though so Jason could go home and be with the kids. Weds. was just another crumby non rememable day, I remember my mom left when Jason got there and I was spouse to go home that day but I was in a lot of pain and couldn't keep any food or medicine down and peeing a ton. It was pretty freaking miserable. Luckly they finally decided to release me around like 5 or something, the car ride home was horrible cause I was in pain plus a headache plus neck pain. It was just bad, we hit a ton of traffic too. We got home and I went straight to bed, Rick, Darla, and Jess were at our house bring the kids home and also one of ladies in our ward brought us yummy magelby's it was good. About the only thing I got to stay down all day. That night is pretty much a blur too. Thurs, fri, sat same stuff pain, headache, neck pain but so glad to be home. sunday i started doing better still ache and can't move arm but better. Jason was hear tell monday and than Darla has been here mon and today, am so thankful for all the help. I am not aloud to pick up my kids for well anything more than 5lbs for 6 to 8 weeks. But am thinking depending on how am doing I might be okay in like 5 weeks or so. Will see. Its hard not being able to be a mom and do things your self, I HATE it. Am basically one handed and anything you can't do with just one hand well I have to have someone do it for me than its hard and trust me you have no idea how many things you can't do with out both hands. Thanks to my amazing husband who has been there for me like crazy, Thanks Jason I know its been a little stressfull and hard on you but your amazing and I love you. He has even been washing my hair for me. Thanks babe!! To kind of tell you about my surgery, they first went in and viewed my heart to check everything out, than removed my old lead and than out in a stint and last out a new lead and they decided to go a head and do a new pacemaker too. Oh but she decided not to put the pacer back in the muscle but to put it on top I guess she said this will make it easier to get to and less recovery next times since next times the muscle want be cut and have to heal. But it makes the pacer stick out a bit, I don't really like it it feels weird and is why I can't really sit up right now cause its heavy on the skin. Hard to explain. So I have my shoulder scarw cut thats healing, a tiny hole on my right side of my neck, a hole on my right thigh and two holes on my left thigh. I actually have a pic am going to post of the two holes cause its funny cause they look like and I call them my vampire bites yes am gay LOL, plus where the two holes its all black and blue bad! Its been a week and ita still really bruised bad and theres a big bump. Any way here some pics of all that. K a little update last night Jason stood Rylee up all by her self and let go and she stood for like 5 seconds all by herself, we've done it a couple of times and everytime she stands really good for a little while. oh and than am posting some pics from right before my surgery me and the kids went to my aunts house for tacos they were really good, thanks Jen!! Oh and my cousin Drew did a little guitar concert for us. Oh yeah and I forgot sunday Jason made a huge fort for him and the kids in our living room sunday.

Rylee 9 month stats

Rylee is 9 months and on Tuesday I took her in for her 9 month apt. she is 14lbs and 27" she is very under for weight and 25% for height but you do need to remember she technically should only be 7 months if she was born on her due date she would probably be still under a little or in 25% for all of it but thats okay am use to that my kids are smaller. Any ways everyone is doing great Rylee is eating a ton which shocks me that she so small but oh well. She has her two bottom teeth and is maybe on the verge of crawling or walking, am thinking she might end up being a baby who walks before she crawls and I'll need to go back and teach her to crawl. Bridger is great same old crazy boy, learing and do new things everyday. Its so much fun and I love it. Jason is doing amazing he's just work like a mad man, well like all ways, he's the hardest worker I have ever meet in my life!!! Am really thankful for how hard he works to provide for us, especially to make it so I can be a stay at home mom, Thank you Jason a ton for that, it means the world to me!!!! Lets see what else he's doing amazing in school Acing like every test! He's so smart! Now me am good just preparing to go in on tuesday for surgery, am really not looking forward to it for serveral reasons, one I can't stand to leave my kids and am so worried about them and how am not going to be able to pick them up and stuff for like 2 or 3 weeks or more. Its going to be hard, am trying to get all the picking up and cuddling in I can right now. Another reason am not looking forward to the surgery is am scared, I mean its one thing when its just you and you don't have kids if something happens to you but if something happens urrr its hard and don't want think about those things but you think about it alot more when you have kids trust me its a hole new thing I've been dealing and going through surgerys and I've all ways been scared and if something happened it would be sad and am sure poeple would have a hard time and stuff but its a huge hole other thing with kids I have to be home for them!!! Any way so thats what going on everyone is great and am just getting the hole house cleaned and ready and making sure everything is ready for me to be out for a while. Alright thats it for now.

Halloween and a change

Alright so Bridger was Frankenstein for Halloween and Rylee was Tinkerbell. It was a good Halloween, we originally planned to just go see everyone and than come home and have the rest night as a family and after the kids go to bed watch scary movies but than Friday night Jason had to work late so I had Lauren and the kids over to make and decorate cupcakes and cookies. Which than when Jason got home I had turned Halloween night in to having all our family down for some soup and soup bread bowls. Each yr I've wanted to make a ton or food and treats and tell all our family and friends that they welcome to come hang out and eat at our house but I've never done it yet for several different reasons each yr but than this yr me and Lauren made all these treats that I sure wasn't eating all of it and I was all ready making soup, bread bowls for me and Jason that night and mommy dogs for Bridger and than I found out my grandpa and grandma Hartsfield weren't going to be home during the day so I asked if they come by here to see the kids in their costumes and if they were doing that than I might as well have soup and bread bowls for them and than they were going to Austin and Lauren's so I thought Austin and Lauren might as well come here so they didn't have to make two stops, which than of course i can't leave out mom and Madison. So than am like well I'll just get 18 bread bowls and invite dad and Barbie when they stop by to eat and also want to invite Jason's family than. So it turned in to a huge thing but way worth it and fun, I want to make it a tradition each year but next year I'll invite all our family and friends to just stop by and eat and hang out. So any ways so in the afternoon yesterday we went to get the soup bowls and than to visit my grandpa and grandma Anderson who are now in a nursing place cause their both doing not so good, it was way good to see them!! After that we went to see Jason's grandma which was really nice to see her we don't go see her enough, that's something were going to start doing. After visiting her we went to Rick and Darla's for yummy BBQ sandwich things, they are really good which is funny cause I use to hate BBQ pork stuff. Than home and to the kitchen I went, I made my Oreo cookies, poppy seed muffins, 3 soups cream of broccoli, corn chowder and a chili. Lauren made her home made yummy cornbread muffins. They were all good. The corn chowder took longer than planned to make next time I need to use my big pot and not the crock pot and I need to do less potatoes and cook the potatoes and carrots in the morning. Oh well it was still great. First it was just grandpa and grandma Harstfield, mom, mad, Austin, Lauren and kids. Oh and me, Lauren and Austin took Bridger and their kids to knock like two doors in my neighborhood. I know we slacked but Austin and Lauren wanted to get going to their neighborhood to knock some doors and Bridger didn't really care that much for it. After they all left next a few neighbors stopped by. Than Rick and Darla came down and while visiting with them dad and Barbie popped in to eat and show us their costumes. Than it was kids to bed and me and Jason watching a scary movie by 8. It was a great and perfect holiday!!! Here's the pics of the kids, family and the food. Oh and today were off to my Uncle Andrew's and Aunt Jen's house for Harsfield tacos YUMMY!!!! Am so excited we haven't all gotten together in a long time my hole mom's side will be there it will be fun! Oh yeah I put on this blog changes Bridger has been moved now to a booster seat at the table and Rylee is in his high chair, his a pic of them this morning eating breakfast we all love it, Bridger feels like a big kid specially cause he gets to eat like mommy and daddy now up to the table and with his plates and stuff on the table and Rylee is in the high chair they love it. She such a chunk monkey too its funny she made Jason feed her part of his waffle and her banana oatmeal. Any ways its so fun and it way neat to see how Bridger just loves changes specially when you can tell that it makes him feel like a big boy. Its fun.

Not a hole lot

Not a lot has been going on, first Saturday was my father in laws birthday, So HAPPY BIRTHDAY to him, we hope he had a great day. Jason's family had diner, cake and ice cream for him sunday but because Bridger and Jason had been sick we couldn't go and than that morning Rylee came down with it and it just seem to get worse that night. I was very sad we couldn't go. Well lets see so yeah I guess basically nothing new just sick husband and kids. Oh Rylee does have her two bottom teeth finally!! I'll try to get a pick as they come up further, right now they're just broken through so barley poping up to see. But still two teeth finally! Well thats about it we have a lot coming up and to look forward to so I'll try to stay un top of the posting and hopefully the kids are better fast casue sat is Halloween and I really want to go trick or treat our family and friends! plus they have really cute costumes so I really don't want them to go to waste! So please kids get better and don't let mommy get sick. Also sunday my Aunt Jen is having all of us over for the Hartsfield tacos YUMMY!!! So hopefully the kids are better.

My witch

Okay so I decorated my witch letters more and I changed the W to purple because it was just to much orange and plain. Here it is. All so am thinking I might start selling these decorated letter sets if anyone is interested they would be pretty cheap, well cheaper than the lady who me and Lauren were buying them from she was charging like $50-$100 for them. So after my surgery will see I'll post what I have to sale if am going to do that. Sorry the pic is not the best cause its on my table with a bunch of other stuff and black rose pedals.

My little turkey and his movies

So Bridger is obsessed with watching movies and he has memorized where his favorite movies are on our movie shelf in alphabetical order. Its so funny cause he seriously has to watch one a day, so he also calls the movies moo, he goes moo moo mom. Its funny. So he'll go over to the movies shelf grab the movie run over to the DVD player and stand there saying moo tell you come over than he hands it to you and you put the movie in and than of course he wants the case back to look at it. He's so funny, okay but the point of me bloging this is Monday i was in the laundry room doing laundry and I didn't hear the TV sound on anymore so I just assumed he turned the TV off cause he knows how to do that but I wanted to check any way so I poke my head around to the living room to see what is going on and the TV is still on but no sound so am thinking did he turn down the sound or what so I walk out and Bridger has turned on the DVD player and has the disk Jason left in it on the floor and he's starting to try to open his movie Shark Tale's case to get it out and put the movie in, am sitting there laughing cause my kid is way to smart, i guess he's been paying real close attention to how to turn the DVD player on and get the movies out of cases. good thing he has no idea you have to change the TV to a different channel or he'd probably be putting movies in all day long. It was really funny and I had to call Jason imediatly to tell him what his son tried to do, he's such a little monkey! Of course I finished turning his movie on for him.
