Changes...

Well It's fathers day and Chad is gone again....sad... But we celebrated it yesterday he got to have his favorite dinner which is mashed potatoes, gravy, chicken, peas, and rice. He said he enjoyed himself we watch a movie and just hung around the house enjoying one anothers company... Atazia lost her first tooth she was so excited...IT's the bottom tooth...

And now for the good news.... Chad was offered a job in North Dakota, on the ND/MT border close to Williston ND, for a water tanker company called ITL Tanklines he would be hauling water to the oil rigs... He has decided to take it He starts July 4th. So yes that means that we will be moving to ND or MT. We are thinking either Billings MT or Bismarck ND because there is a temple and wards. It will be a bit of a drive for him to come home but the good thing is that he only works two weeks a month and is off two weeks a month so we will see him much much more and that will give him more time to finish his schooling... We are excited but a bit nervous too.... We will be moving the last week in July or first of August.. When ever Chad can find us a place up there... It's strange how life can change so quickly...life is good take care until next time.

Cast

As happy as can be... she has a cast on (finally)! Thursday was her appointment and this is how she wanted her cast purple and red...

Emergency!

Well we had a stressful day yesterday....

Atazia decided to help me get some pictures down from a cubby hole by the stairs by getting up on a stool when she turned she lost her balance and fell.. THIS is what happened....

She was freaking out when she saw her arm (So was I although I tried to hold it together and I was very glad I hadn't ate yet or I would have lost everything) It happened about 9:15am and After frantically looking for shoes and jackets and a diaper bag we got in the car and Drove to the Montpelier hospital we got there at 9:25am! They got us right in although it took two hours before the doctor got there to set her arm.. They had to sedate her before they did it... So traumatic she was screaming for her daddy the whole time and I was fighting back tears at the same time wishing the same thing. After all said and done it was a clean break I sighed with relief... (no surgery needed) We left the hospital at noon and I took the kids out to lunch to thank them for being so good and Atazia so brave. Came home and tried to relax.

Today she is doing much better she's not in as much pain.... We are keeping the pain at bay with BF&C and Lobilia it's working just as well as Ibuprofen.

Here's some more sad news... We are moving .... Yes again for the 12th time... because of unforseen circumstances things are not working out as we had plan so we're looking for somewhere else although I think we'll still stay in Idaho there is a good feeling here better than we've gotten anywhere else we've ever lived... Thanks for all your prayers for atazia have a great day and I'll keep you posted...

Easter Sunday!!

Well it was Easter yesterday and we had the added joy of having Chad home (even though it was only for a few hours) Here are all three of my wonderful Kids in their homemade (Yes I made them except for Qwades shirt!) Easter Sunday clothes...

I made Qwade's Vest and Pants last week... The vest was easy but the pants.... well... lets just say it'll be a while before I attempt that again...smile~

Qwade Felt left out when I made the girls their clothes so He asked if I'd make him some too.. I did it was really hard but I did it!!!

The Easter bunny visited us and brought Qwade an Automatic Nerf Gun! and a CD player with head sets and a couple pieces of candy!

Here is my Princess (although it would sure be nice if she'd ever just let me do her hair all cute and girly without a huge fight...sigh...maybe one day) This is the best smile from her I could get out of literally 30 pictures... oh well...

The Easter bunny knew just what she wanted... Princess everything earrings, necklace, tea set, wand etc!!

Here is my cutie pie... She was the first one to find her basket and she loved it.. She got a bumble bee dress up stuff and necklace, dress up shoes, earrings etc...

She was as happy as could be, she's just so darn cute.....

Here's my little bumble bee.....

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend...

Help!

Ok to all those who sew! I am looking for a fun and stylish diaper bag pattern that has lots of room for all of my kids stuff like change of clothes, sippy cups, wipes, and a place to put coloring books etc.. My old diaper bag broke so I am thinking of making one to "help with my new found sewing skills" I've been looking at the stores and they all are so cheaply made and can easily rip with the vinyl covering the outer as well as inner linings of the bag! Any ideas would help.. Thanks!

P.S. Can someone explain what interfacing is.. I'm not getting the jest of it!
