Life as we know it....

Lyla- Woke up with a pinkish eye today. I took it easy with her and ran to the Sage Health and grabbed some eyedrops and colloidal silver and have been putting both of them in her eye all day. She didn't have any other symptoms besides just a little pink in the white part of her eye. By the time I put her down her eye looked pretty normal so I am hoping she will wake up normal.
Evelyn- I have really been checking her and Lyla's heads daily for lice. Since it has been going around Evelyn's school. And washing their heads with tea tree oil mixed in with their shampoo. Crossing my fingers that really works too.
Trent- Is giddy about his Mustang possibly getting painted soon. But that is what we have heard a long time ago. I hope it really can happen soon for him. He is always doing projects in the garage. I like that he likes to stay busy. He just lowered our RZR roof and it looks awesome!! I love that man.
Tara- Infertility..how do people try to conceive for years?  I am so close to just giving up, and being happy with my two. Maybe that is what it will come down too. It is especially hard this month again. I would have a one year old, my due date was Feb. 5th. So that day will also be hard for me. Life really gets tough as you get older. I have grown so much from this trial and have been able to see how blessed I really am in life. And how hard others trials are as well.

Sunday we had so much fun with the Askeroth cousins. Mayley got blessed and Jacob spoke in church and we had lots of fun. Evelyn is so sad she lives far from her cousins.

Blogging Slacker...

Once upon a time I used to be good at blogging...the end. ha ha. 

Here is the scoop with us lately:
1) Trent and I have spend the last few night drawing up our dream home. Oh it is so fantastic and stressful and fun. After searching through hundreds of house plans we found one we both love. We are going to modify somewhat but I am so giddy. 
It is a Craftsman two story home with white trim and it is gorgeous!! We hope to start building in the next year or so. Hard to know exactly but we finally have a start. Wahoo!! So dang excited:) 
2) Lyla has spent this last week talking about her Superman, Ninja Turtle moms who let her do what ever she wants to. If I say she can't do/have something at the moment she says but my Superman mommy says I can. Oh she is good...really good. 
3) I have been taking my Femera fertility meds this month. And every time I take them my stupid back goes out. And I felt like my uterus was going to explode that is normal too I guess. I feel at peace this month and have full trust in heavenly father. I know for a fact he will take care of me. Even if I am not getting the result I want out of this trial. I know all will be ok. 
4) Evelyn quit ballet this past month. Her cousin Abby stopped and she came out and told me she just doesn't like it. I was really bummed and asked her multiple times if that is really what she wanted to do. No, mom I don't want to go anymore. Ok then. She is doing so great in school and is on her 9th section of sight words. I am so proud of her hard work and her excitement for life. 
5) Today we went on a very long Rzr ride with the girls and the MOB crew. Left at 11:30 am and got back around 3!! Fun but oh so long. Then we headed to Trent's parents for a bbq. It was a really tiresome day. But fun. The girls are sleeping in Evelyn's bed tonight. So much fun. Love it. lol 
6) Our baby chickens are thriving and happy out in our yard. They flock around my feet every day when I feed them. I am keen to them since I have raised them since they hatched. So I like them more than my other chickens. But man can they poop. I am very picky with how often I clean in there. lol
7) I am really enjoying my new young women calling. I love my Beehives and the women I get to work with. It is all fantastic. 
8) Trent is still waiting for his Mustang to be painted, poor guy he has waited so long. I don't know if he will every have it. It is going to be so awesome!!

A Post I forgot about.....

1) No Pilates class for me this week. I hurt my back teaching my class when I had back pain already. Big mistake. My dad says I now have a inflamed facet capsule. That could take a few more weeks to heal. Fabuloso...not really. Uhh I have never been more frustrated. I can't clean my house pick up my girls, hold them, or bend normally. Meanwhile I feel the pain and have kind of been in a crappy mood. My body is turning to mush and I am gaining weight awesome. Hope I can get better soon and get back to my life as a Pilates teacher.

2) Our neighbors have been doing awesome at church. I am really happy they are taking the discussions at our house and we can answer questions they may have at church or about the things we do. We are so lucky to have such great neighbors. We will never move away from this place. I also love our location and how green it is down my street. A photographers paradise!! It is about to change we are getting new neighbors. The Bailey's are moving to Hurricane, UT. I don't think they have anyone wanting to buy or rent it yet. Interesting. .. . 
3) We went on a double date with our other awesome neighbors Jenn & Garritt Schouten. We went and ate at that amazing Italian place that is new in Mesquite. We were going to go see Wolverine but we missed the starting time. Then we went and checked at the theaters and no other movie was starting for at least an hour. So we just went to get ice cream at Dairy Queen. It was a blast and we laughed so much. 
4) We have had some cooler days this week. So we went on a RZR ride yesterday, we saw a desert turtle and the girls were smitten with it. It was lucky we didn't run it over, right on our trail. One of our favorite spots to go is where the old Simplot was and play in the white sand. We all love it.
