ONLY 2 MORE WEEKS!

YAY...only two more weeks until we go to North Carolina to see my dad, and 3 more weeks til we go to PA to see my mom and pap! We can't wait! Chris' last day of work at the airport is on Friday...I am sooooo happy too cause i'm tired of getting up so early to make breakfast. Call me lazy if you want, but I dont call it that. I'm sure you wouldn't want to have to stay up late everynight so that Cocoa (my ferret) can have his medicine on time, and then get up at 1:30am to give him his OTHER antibiotic, and then 4:30am to get Chris ready for work, and then stay up til 6am feeding cocoa and giving him medicine! I can't wait til it's over! Vacation couldn't come any slower!
We're excited to see you dad! And Pap...keep getting better. We need you being healthy when we see you so that you can play with Landon :)
We love you all!

Happy Early Easter at our house!

















































































































































We decided to have Easter Early in our house this year because We are going on Vacation to see Landon's Grandpa Zaccheus and Grandma Creek for two weeks after Easter. We figure we'll have a ton of Eggs to eat after the holiday so...why not have Easter Early so that we can eat the eggs and not waste them. Check out Landon's first time coloring Eggs! Sorry we have so many pics. It was his first time doing it, so I HAD to take tons of pics! After Chris went to work, we even had an Easter Egg hunt. He thought it was so funny!

Landon doin boy stuff!














































So I realized today that its been awhile since I've posted any recent pics of Landon. I will do that. I gave Landon a hair cut lst week, and man, I took a lot off. I cut it with a #4 attachment with sheers on the sides. I thought it looked cute, and i was impressed with my ability! Check out our pics :) Also, there is a picture of Landon eating in his high chair, and if you look to the right of his forhead, you can see a big goose egg. This happened a few weeks ago, but I wanted to show you all how big his goose egg got, and if you look closely, you can even see a little bit of a bloody nose that dried on his nose. I felt bad but when he fell down and got the bump on his head, he also had a little bloody nose. It went away quickly, but...poor kid, he took a tumble. I told him, "That's what happens when I tell you to come here, and you run away from me."
Also, there are pictures of Landon trying to play in the water fountain at church.

Getting ready!

Chris and I are really excited about going on our Vacation to North Carolin and to PA. Chris has never been to North Carolina, so I think it'll be a really cool trip for him. I'm excited to see my dad, and I think we'll have a really good time. I am hoping that Landon does alright with the transition of the time difference. I would hate for him to be onry the whole time cause he wont sleep enough. Usually, kids dont do the best when they're out of their comfort zone, and I'm hoping I dont have to deal with that. I hope it's nice out too when we go and visit. We have about 3 weeks until we head out! PEACE!

So Chris bought me the Twilight movie and I've watched it 6 times already. It's one of my favorite movies now. I'm watching it for the 7th time now. :) hahaha It's so funny cause i'm not sick of it yet.
Also, I noticed the other day that our ferret has blood in his stool, and so yesterday Chris and I took him to the vet, and they tested him for paristites, but he didnt have any..and also, they looked at other things, but they concluded that he has an ear infection, and a little bit of an upset GI tract probably because we changed his food recently. They said that it's good though that we took him in to the vet cause the cause of Cocoa being sick could have been worse. Anytime there is blood in their stool, its not good. They said that he could have an ulcer that eventually would kill him. The doctor asked me if he was grinding his teeth, and he wasn't however, today he started doing that. We origionally took cocoa to the vet because we noticed that he lost his appetite. So, we've been force feeding him with a syringe and he's been taking water on his own. But like i said, today when I was feeding him, I noticed he started grinding his teeth. Isn't it funny that Cocoa is on two antibiotics, and also a probiotic. The probiotic is suppoeably supposed to help his GI tract get better by adding good bacteria to it. Anyways, I think all is well...i just wanted to let everyone know that he's doing better. I swear, it's like I am taking care of 2 kids at the moment. :) What stinks is that we can't take Cocoa to my dads house with us on the airplane because I guess the airlines only allow cats and dogs. Weird huh? We're going to ask our bishop if he could keep an eye on Cocoa for us while we're gone. We dont think he'll mind. His family adopts pets for people..or something like that. So..anyways, I hope everything is alright with whoever is reading my blog. Make some comments Dang it!!!

Long day ...but it's a good one!

Hi, today has been such a long day! Chris has been working, and I babysat, and Landon hasn't slept for one minute today. I still think his sleep patern is off from when he was sick, and since we went to Utah. I hate when it gets thrown off. He'll just get soo fussy and he wont sleep. He hasn't been so bad yet today being fussy or anything. He's actually just sittin in his crib talkin to himself. It's really cute!
The long part of my day was when I went to babysit. The kids were really good...i just feel like i'm a maid at times cause she wants us to clean the house...and the kids dont help. It's annoying, and you can put the kids in time out ALL DAY, and they not learn. They are the 4 kids who are under the age of 4. I swear, they are always hungry too! I'm forever cookin or making food or cleanin up something they spill. It's quite frustering!
Overall though, today hasn't been too bad. I'm getting ready to make dinner! Wish me luck that it'll taste good. Shoot...i'm a good cook!

We got to see Corey

Man, today I found out that Landon's medical bill will be covered completely in full, and we dont have to worry about it. Of course I will continue to check with the Ambulance company and Vail hospital until the bill is paid in full, but we are so very grateful...because it's saving us about $3000. Cool huh?
Also, Corey seems to be doing alright at the moment. We got to see him Friday night and Saturday, and it was soo cool seeing him. Brian, Lauren, Evan, Ann, Chris, me, Braden and Corey had a fun day on Saturday playing basketball! They're good too! But of course, our team (Corey, Me, Evan, and Ann) whipped them in the game :) hehe naa, it was a close game!
Thanks Denise for keeping an eye on Landon while we went shopping for Landon. We know you love it, and it gives us a break from him for a minute, so anytime you wanna take him..you are welcome to! We love you guys a ton, and were very happy we could see you!
Thanks for everything!

Hey, so today Chris and i found out that our brother...who is serving his mission in Greece will be coming home tomorrow night to Salt Lake. I guess he's been having medical problems, and the mission president and doctor in Greece said that he will be sent home, and released Honorably!
It's good new that he's being sent home so that he can get better medically but, i'm sure he'll miss his mission. Denise told us that he might get sent back out later if he gets better quickly but...who knows!

Staus!

So I wanted to give everyone the status on Landon. Today he has done great. He actually ate some food...well, a tuna sandwich...but later on this evening, he threw it up! So, maybe he wasn't ready afterall for that yet. I've been keeping him on fluids and he's active but he's really pale. If you were looking at him, you could see it too, his lips are kinda grey lookin, and the tops of his ears look the same color. They had him on oxygen at the hospital because his oxygen level (sats) were low...and I can tell that he still doesn't feel good. He keep coughing, but overall, he's getting better. I'm trying to continue to be optimistic about it cause if i wasn't, I'd be driving myself crazy worryin about him. Actually...I AM optimistic but I'm STILL driving myself crazy worrying about him. Maybe it's just me being a parent. I dont think i'll be able to sleep well until I KNOW for a fact that he's overcome this whole ordeal. He is getting better though. I still can't believe that all happened to him. He's a little trooper! :)

Scarey DAY!

So today was the scarest day ever for me and my family! I went babysitting at 9:30 this morning, and Landon was alright. We got him out of bed and he was acting normal. Well....to make a long story short, he's had a fevor for a few days...but it spiked today and he had a Fevoral Seizure. It was the scarest thing ever. I watched him lose consciousness and turn blue, and I'm telling you, I wouldn't wish that on anyone. I really thought he was dying. No joke...and I called 911. The ambulance came to the house where I was babysitting and took us to the hospital. The father of the little boy I was babysitting was downstairs working so he just watched his own kid while we went to the Hospital. But, Man, it was the scarest day of my life cause I thought I was losing my child. I can't explain the horror I had in my head and in my heart when he quit breathing. His eyes rolled back in his head, and he bit down really hard, and was unconscious for about a minute. I know that it's not long...but it seems like eternity when its happening. And even after he came to..., he was loopy and he looked cross-eyed. I thought he had brain damage...but he doesnt. I guess that's what people look like when they're coming out of a seizure. Trust me, it's not a site that you ever want to have to see! I've never been so scared in my whole life.
Right now, Landon is asleep in his room, and he's safe and okay! But...we have to keep a close watch on him for the next 48 hours and we have a drs apt tomorrow to check on him again. If you would like, please keep him in your prayers. We would appreciate it. Thanks!

My sick little man
















So right now Landon is laying down because he's still sick. He's been so lethargic for the past few days. I had an appointment at the clinic today and they checked his iron level, and they said that he is Anemic. Sad huh? I have to start feeding him some more high Iron foods like red meat, and peanut butter, and beans. Riiiiiight, like he's going to eat any beans. haha. He's not really a picky eater, but he's never really wanted to eat Beans! They checked his iron level by pricking his finger. I felt sooo bad because he's already sick...and now they have to prick his little finger. He was soooo tired today, and he's been sleeping a lot for the past few days. He only wants me! And its totally the sweetest ever! He wants me to hold him and everytime I sit him down if he's awake, he just cries. He never really cries either so it's so sad! I love him, and I dont care, I'll hold him every second of the day if it makes him feel better. I hate seein my baby sick!
Check out the picture of him just sitting on the couch. Yesterday morning he woke up when Chris went to work at 5:00am, and he just sat on the couch drinkin his juice. It was so cute! You can tell he's sick though. I've been giving him dinner but since he's sick, he hasn't really had an appetite.
