So, since the last time I posted all kinds of things have happened. Jeff started school here at the UofU and has been working his bum off there and working in Heber 2x's a week still. Busy busy. I appreciate all he does so I can stay home and take these picts of our little one.
The most exciting thing that happened last month though is that my best friend Diana had her twin baby girls which they were lovingly calling baby"A" and baby "B" until they decided to name them Anna and Becca. I was very honored to say the least!
My Dad was here in Salt Lake last week to get the hole (ASD) in his heart closed up by Dr. Sorensen who also closed mine and Katie's . For those of you who didn't know. We found out while I was pregnant with Mae that the numbness I was experiencing randomly over the last 6 years along with the blurry vision and hard time getting words out occasionally, wasn't due to the diagnosed "migraines" I was having, but instead a hole in my heart. To make a long story short its fixed now and so is my sister's and my Dad's. These holes in the heart are more common than people might think (10-20% of the population have them) and can cause strokes. Anybody reading this who has any similar symptoms to mine should seriously check out the Sorensen website.
A few weeks ago Mae and I took a trip to the zoo with the Haacke family. We had lots of fun and Mae made friends with a tiny little monkey. They had a bit of a staring contest. Soo fun! I carried her around in my sling the whole time and she fell asleep, but the trip wore her out and she slept pretty well that night ( relative to how she normally does). We had a lot of fun.
3 weeks ago my sister Katie and I canned peaches for the first time ever. Well, Katie did most of it and I was taking care of my little one. Thanks Kate. Katie's dog Maya was trying to love on Mae while we were there.. cute. A week after that Katie and I continued on our domestic pursuit and went raspberry picking and made jam!! Yummy. Jeff is excited about it too. Becca Haacke and her kids joined us too. Ethan, her 4 year old probably had the most tasty experience out of us all. He found some good berries and it was obvious by the stains on his face. :) Mae had a good time with Aunt Katie and got a good nap in too.
