My Guys

Cooling Off in the Pool Originally uploaded by kyleroth.
I haven’t posted a picture of the two most important people in my life in awhile, so here’s one of them cooling off in the backyard today.

1-2-3 "I Really Hope This Works"…

Kade has been less than the model child the past few months. His screaming temper tantrums are definitely not for the faint of heart and have resulted in a number of embarassing situations that have left Kyle and I looking like the novice parents that we are. I finally took the advice of a mom [...]

My "little" Liv

Mama at 35 weeks Originally uploaded by kyleroth.
Kyle took this today which puts me at 35 weeks 1 day pregnant. In my opinion there isn’t much room left to grow, but I’m sure that Liv’s opinion differs from mine and she’ll find a way to stretch the belly even more. I put my hand on [...]

Stick a Fork in Me… I’m Done

I have undiagnosed OCD and it rears it’s ugly head during my weekly cleaning regimen. I dust, vacuum, and clean the bathroom almost daily but once a week (usually Thursday but because Mom visited yesterday, I did it today) I do a full-out cleaning of the house, which involves an obsessive ritual that I won’t [...]

Thankful Thursday

I am thankful that our prayers are being heard and that my MIL did remarkably well during her bone marrow transplant Tuesday. Although these past two days have been harder on her, she is staying positive and continuing to fight. My SIL, Jessie, made a video for her mom that puts [...]

Yesterday morning Kade was eating breakfast in the living room while I was reading the paper and watching the Today show. He kept saying something over and over and I realized it was “Dr. Phil, Dr. Phil” so I looked at the T.V. and sure enough there was a Dr. Phil commercial on. I cannot [...]

Celebrate

Last night we went up to the Clinic to see Kyle’s mom and congratulate her on the successful transplant (thanks everyone for all your prayers, thoughts and support). Kids aren’t allowed on the floor, but there is a family room at the end of the hall before you enter the restricted transplant unit so Cindy [...]

Brand New Day

Today is a turning point in my MIL’s long 3 month journey with leukemia. Today is the day of her bone marrow transplant and her “rebirth”day. When we sent her pictures of Liv’s nursery she told me that butterflies symbolize new life. Well, today she is a beautiful butterfly who is shedding the coccoon of [...]

Better Late than Never…

It’s Thursday and time for giving thanks. I’m a little late in the game today (ok, a lot late) but it’s been a full day so my apologies.
I’m thankful that I only have 5 weeks left to go in this pregnancy because she has already dropped and I feel like I’m walking around with [...]
