Another fun weekend.

This is how my day started. I got to hang out with these great kids. Jessica is SO great with Story, which was extra good because my tooth was hurting and I had to take pain pills all day.

Jer joined us after school and could not wait for Story to wake up. Luckily for him that didn't take too long because my house is too bright for her to sleep in.

However, after all the kids were gone and my husband came home, my cheek really started to swell. It looked really bad and hurt, so I decided to call the dentist. It was around 8:00 but he told me to meet him in his office and to make sure I brought my husband. He said it didn't look too bad, but I didn't believe him. He said it needed a drain. So they gave me some gas and I started giggling a lot and Kyle decided it'd be funny to say (in front of the dentist) that gas always make me laugh at home. I was so embarrassed. But anyway, after some numbing and some procedures I tried to not listen to he was done. Kyle was the dental hygienist for the evening. He was in charge of suction, which may be the reason I puked in the parking lot in front of both Kyle and the dentist. I puked again at home and finally fell asleep. But this morning half of my face seriously looks like Louie Anderson, but I guess at least it doesn't hurt as much.

But I'm not allowing Kyle to tell my any of the details about what happened, so you'll have to hear all that later. The few details I did hear I can't think about or I get all queasy like.

Valentine's Weekend

Kyle had this great idea to go to Four Corners this weekend, but the snow on Saturday was kind of a bummer. We started driving but we ended up turning around. The highlight of trip was visiting Smokey the Bear.
Kyle decided to change the Fire Danger from Low to Extreme!

After he did that (and changed it back) our car got stuck and someone had to stop and help push us out. Kind of embarrassing...but it was actually really fun to drive with Kyle all day.

Monkeys

See the resemblance?

And this is the cleric I made for Kyle's brother.

Creepy Cute

This is my latest work. These are from the book Kyle gave me for Christmas that I'm holding up on my Christmas post. It is an amazon woman and a corporate zombie. I'm also working on a cleric for Kevin (Kyle's brother).

Utah Lake Trip

Kyle and I went to Utah Lake last Sunday on a drive. We walked out onto the lake and pretended it was scary...but really it was quite solid and quite shallow. But it was still really fun. Even when our butts were quite wet from sitting on the ice for a picture. Kyle's was much more wet than mine because I was setting up the camera. Kyle totally speed skated...

And we were so daring on the ice cracks...

Public Service Announcement

If you haven't heard or have heard only a little here are the facts.

I had a miscarriage. A blighted ovum.

What I understand is that means within a week or two after we got pregnant the baby stopped developing and got reabsorbed into my body. My body, however, didn't catch on and kept thinking I was pregnant until about Monday night when I started bleeding. We went to the hospital Tuesday and the ultrasound found no heartbeat and no baby, just a sac and a placenta I believe. So that should all come out within 10 days and if it doesn't the doctor will start with pills to help it come out and then surgery if needed (a D & C).

That's really all we know and this is the easiest way of letting everyone else know.

And it's done!
