Long time no blog!

Hello!

It has been forever since I've written anything. I'm just going to make it short and simple. Life has been crazy! We rented out our home, to move down to Provo. Victor is going to school and working full time. Hailey is now in kindergarten...which blows my mind how big she is! She is very bright, loving, and beautiful girl! Haden is now in his first year of preschool, and he is totally loving it! He is always talking about his teachers Mrs Midge, and Miss Jill. I am now pregnant with our 3rd child, and couldn't be happier! I have been ready to have another, and now the time is here. I am 14 weeks and 4 days today! I have not gotten very sick, just nauseous at night which is weird?! My belly is now popping out, which I am excited about, but it is kind of the awkward stage where people wonder if you are a little pudgy, or pregnant. LOL I am happy with life right now, and loving my family!!!

Mexico Part II

From Movies

It's so amazing to me how people live down in Mexico. I feel so blest to have the things that I do...it seriously made me look at everything so differently. Middle class people do not have carpet, a car, and they have more than one family living in one home. They work so hard to have just a tiny bit of money to feed their families. My eyes have opened up to the real world!

We stopped in victors old neighborhood that he grew up in. It is very torn down with grafitti everywhere! I could not believe it! This white building was his grandparents home, where his mother took care of them in their last days, so they lived with them. We visited a lady next door who has lived their almost her whole life! She is 107 years old! It was crazy?!

We got to stop at the temple on our last day. It was beautiful! It was weird that we had to show our temple recommends just to be on temple grounds, but it's understandable that people could vandalize.

Victor and I are going to start sending clothes down there to help people out cause their clothes are like double or tripple the price down there! I love my life, and am so grateful for EVERYTHING I have, I wouldn't change a thing in the world!

Mexico Trip

From Movies

Our trip to Guadalajara, Mexico was so much fun! First we went straight to Victors moms house, that is her back yard that we are in at first. We went to the walmart and there was a nacho libre cart that I just HAD to take a picture of. I non stop thought of that movie cause they sounded just like the one in the movie! Also the kids didn't have their carseats cause they don't require them out there so the kids took turns sitting in the front seat with whoever was up there. They LOVED it! We walked to the park with Jose and his dog Chuckie...who is VERY spoiled! Jose was putting the kids on the slide, and his dog got so jealous that he wanted to go down the slide...so he did! Rediculous huh?
One day we took a trip to Mancenillo where we went to the beach. That is the picture of our hotel that was really cheap! We paid $100 for two rooms that had two beds for one night...and not to mention...on the beach! We had an awesome time, the water was so warm...perfect! Later on we went to a sea food resteraunt that was on the beach. Victors brother and Haden got a long so well...they were best pals the whole time! He taught him some funny faces that Haden loves to do. Then all of a sudden this guys rides up on his horse asking if we wanted to go horse back riding...$10 for a half an hour...I told Victor to do it! He took Hailey first, and she LOVED it! Haden on the other hand was VERY jealous and watched them about the whole time! We split up the time between them both, then his uncle Jose took him for his turn. We left the next day back to Guadalajara.
Another night Victors mom, Claudia (his brothers girlfriend), and I went to play Bingo...they call it lottery with the women next door. They were hesitant towards me cause they thought that I was some stuck up white girl who was better than them, but after getting to know me they were suprised to find that I was the total opposite! We had a ton of fun! Victors mom was getting so mad cause she didn't win ONE game...and Claudia seemed to win almost every single one!

We also went to many markets...which was one of my favorite things to do there! There are so many cool things that you see! I loved our trip, and want to go back as soon as we can!

Sickos!

Well, where do I begin...about 4 weeks ago we went to Mexico to visit Victors family. The night before we left, I was rushing to get everything done with packing...when all of a sudden the stomach flu decides to rush up on me!! I was praying that it would go away by the time we got on the plane, because that would not have been pleasant for the people sitting next to the bathroom! Well, my prayer was answered! I felt better, and was ready for the long day of travel...I still felt crumby! Well, our trip was so much fun! I cannot wait to go back!

When we got back from out trip, something horrible happened! We were sick!! I must have eated or drank something that was not sanitary...and we were REALLY careful!! Everytime I would eat something, it went right through me within about 5-10 min I was running to the bathroom! Well with all of this happening I had a doctors appointment to hear the babys heartbeat...the appointment turned out that they could not find a heartbeat, so they sent me to the hospital for an ultrasound. They wanted to see for sure what was going on. I at that point knew that the baby was gone. I have been through it before, and if they don't find it in the office, they are not going to find it on the ultrasound. As I am laying there getting the ultra sound done, it is just pure silence! I could see the baby not moving...and the nurse kept putting the pointer on it, but it was just flatlining. They said the baby looked about 7 weeks old and I was nine weeks along. I knew it...and so did Victor. We were both so disappointed. I was so looking forward to this new being!

Well, the day after I found myself very depressed and sick(mostly from the bacteria that I caught in mex). Victor came home and immediately called the doctor telling him that I was very sick...the doctor said to come in right away. Once I got there he hooked me up to an iv, telling me that I was VERY dehydrated! After about an hour and a half on it, I got to go home...feeling much better...and with a perscription to get rid of the stupid sickness!! He also told me the risks of the perscription he wanted to give me to get the miscarriage going. He told me that I would be in a lot of pain, but I was ready for it. I do not like the thought of a dead being inside of me.

I took the medicine, and got it going. It was so hard to deal with...thank goodness I have good friends and family to turn to! Then, since my blood type is RH- I have to get a shot when I am pregnant, or if I have a miscarriage. This shot hurts like heck! Really stings! I was so relieved once the whole process was over. I am sad, but happy for it to be over with!

Once I think things are going back to normal, we got hit up with the flu! My little Hailey has been sick since last Friday! We ended up taking her in on monday night because she was not getting better and was starting to say that her ears were hurting...poor thing has two ear infections and a horrible cough! We are recouperating, and hoping to see better days!
