Grandma Kristi




My mom, Kristi, came to visit and help with Connelly. It has been heaven sent. She has helped me so much. Two nights in a row she helped with the baby by taking him all night and doing the feedings. It was so nice to actually sleep a full 7ish hours. She also has helped clean, cook, babysit while I worked on my homework. I have a test this Monday so she is going to tend him Sunday night for me too. It will be nice to be able to study and rest before the test. If you don't know, I'll tell you.... I hate this Statistics class. I just did 2 hours of homework and didn't get all 7 questions done. They are the longest and hardest equations. I can't wait until this class is over. I complain more than I work on my homework probably but I HATE IT.


Nate and I are going on our first date postpartum today too. We are going to go to a movie and dinner while Grandma Krisit tends baby Connelly. I'm hoping to get outside today too and get in some good sunshine. I am still pretty sore. I am so surprised how bad of a recovery I'm having. I really expected to be out and doing walking/running within a few weeks. Here it is three weeks and I still hurt. I am bummed about that.


I had a dream the other night that I woke up and Connelly was 20 pounds and so big and grown up. He is starting to smile more and look more directly at you. It is fun.

Sun Valley, Idaho 2021

We stayed at a cute log cabin by the path that goes from Sun Valley to Hailey. There was a huge open field where we were able to throw the ball and play with the dogs in the snow. We ate lunches out and cooked the other meals in the cabin.  Connelly got  the French dip, Nate got the Pastrami, Kate got Macaroni salad and I got the Acai bowl! This was our fourth year going to SunValley.  We love to shop at the  thrift store, Gold Mine.  We found a lamp, board games, Sorrel snow boots for kate, beanies, and Corral plates for the kitchen!! GOLD MINE! Connelly went to Bald Mountain for the first time.  He was able to ski just as fast if not as fast as me.  The ski runs there are so long.  I never took the kids because they are  so long and I thought they wouldn't last two runs.  Connelly and I did 5 runs!!  It was so fun.  Then we got the souvenir pins for Dolla...

Connelly 3 years old

I haven't blogged or done a cute updated pix of Connelly since his March birthday when he turned three. He is so fun. I have no energy because I'm pregnant but he has a ton of it. He loves to ride his bike and play with his friends from sun up to sun down. He believes he is pregnant too and he has a "baby Kate" in his belly like I do. We are looking forward to Oct. 13th as much as ever in this horrid heat. I hate being pregnant in the summer. I love summer, I love being in a bathing suit, and this summer isn't what I love because I don't look good in a bathing suit and I hate the heat.

Random thoughts

So this post is a combination of what I've been thinking the past little bit: First, this morning, I didn't do anything with myself because I was going to wear a hat to class, Anatomy 2320, and so I just picked my zits and got Connelly to go to my mother in laws, and left. Yes left without the freaking hat. I didn't comb my hair, didn't put make up on, and left the house red, picked on ugly zit face. What was I thinking. oh well, it isn't like I even talk to anyone in class or having an affair with my teacher so no biggy. Second, I took a test in my anatomy class Monday, and I thought for sure we would get our tests back today. WE DIDN"T. so I have to anticipate my score another 6 days. HHHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...... Connelly must be getting more teeth. He is Onery. He will be cute however about 10 minutes before he goes to be. He is really ticklish and giggly late at night. So then it makes it hard to want to put him in bed because he i...
