AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am to a breaking point right now and I just want to rant, then ask for help!! Andy has not slept LITERALLY this whole week. She usually goes to bed at 7, wakes up at 7, takes a nap during the day...

Well--she has been going to bed at 8:30 or 9, waking up at 4 or 5 and NOT TAKING A NAP! Last night I almost lost it....We were at my friend Dave's play ( I will write about that in another post) and it wasn't over until after 9. She fell asleep after running and screaming right at the end. She woke up at 3 this morning, ready for the day and refused to take a nap.

I am so exhuasted, tired and onry , I feel I have nothing left in me. I was so tired today that I just sat and let Andy tear apart the house while I sobbed in the corner.

It is not because she does not wear herself out during the day...It is not because she goes to bed early. In fact, the later that I put her to bed it seems like the earlier she wakes up.

As I sat delirious today ( yes, I am going to bed right after this) I looked at her and Thanked heaven for my beautiful babe. She has been very clingy lately and I know those does are far too soon over. I love her so much. She really is a miracle and I would love to have 50 more miracles if it is possible.

So, any advice on how to keep sane and how to help her to sleep? Oh, she is also not sick so that is not the prob. Any suggestions?

Cleaning up???

Andy loves her Dadda so much. That is her favorite part of the day, laying and playing with dad.

She just loves chillin on her momma

I hardly ever put her in pig tails...She won't sit long enough for me to do it. So, I had to take pics while I could get the chance

What a silliness

Andy likes to spill her little puffs on the floor...The great gal is learning how to clean everything up as well....It is a slow process but you can't fault the gal..

THe worst night...with a bit of inspiration...

Andy's room has been funny with her heat lately. So, last night I felt I really needed to go check out the temp of her room. I walk in the room only to hear her gasping for air!!! It was like she wasn't breathing at all...

I look down at her and she is covered in throw up!! I scream out to Steve to come and help me (what a Hero). We immediately give Andy a bath...

Steve takes her downstairs, while I start a shower myself as alot got on me...Then Steve come running up and puts her in the shower with me. Needless to say, Andy had one more bath on top of that.

We decided to have a sleepover in the front room and lay down with towels and blankets. Well, Andy went for 6 hours straight, stopping to take a nap, then getting up, rolling over and throwing up.

I did at least three loads of laundry last night. TO sum up---I am so tired, I don't know why I am even writing...just cause. I am so glad that Steve was on his week off. I would have lost it without him. HE gave her a blessing and we just held her all night. I am so grateful I was inspired to go check on Andy---I don't think we would have heard her.



I am so grateful my husband has the priesthood and was inspired to give her a blessing. I would not have been able to do it without him by my side.Say a prayer for our little Angel.

Who to trust???

Well, This post has nothing to do with what is going on in the world or our lives right now for that matter. I am upset. Somehow, JIBJAB got on my blog and posted a porno type scene on my blog. I am beyound upset about it and I apologize to any of you that may have come across it. They didn't invade, I don't want people freaking out...I wanted to post a JIBJAB on my site and somehow the wrong one posted and I didn't know about it until about a day after the fact.

Sorry again.....I will be monitoring the situation a lot closer now....I beleive I took care of the situation so NO WORRIES!

Elections 2008

I saw this a while ago and thought it was HILARIOUS!!! My choice was Mitt Romney, and he is not in the race at all...So--I really don't care at this point. Well, I do, but I am not going to rant about it...It just makes me annoyed. Enjoy the cartoon and everyone VOTE!!! Use your rights to VOTE VOTE VOTE tomorrow!! If you don't know where your precint is---go to this site vote .


I love election time, even when I fear ALL of our prospects. There is just something about standing in line to cast your vote and sitting by the TV all day with your own blank USA Map coloring it red or blue....GO AMERICA!!

Halloween 2008 in all it's glory

This Halloween I wasn't too inventive. We had Andy's cheerleader outfit, I wanted to get more use of it, and I wanted to match her. So, here you go. BYU cheerleader and the crazy fan. Note that I do have on BYU earings, socks, shoes and whatnot. I like to go more into it, but this was all I couldl muster this year.

Two Cheerleaders having a blast together.

Flirting with the QB. Really flirting with the QB. Oh my.........................

Just chillin' with her cousin.

I thought her cousin Josh and her were so dang cute together. Very typical behavior of cheerleader and football man.

With cousin Koda.





We went to Daddy's work to visit him there. She was a huge hit.



I have decided that Halloween is so much more fun with a little one. We went and saw some Aunt's, uncle's, cousin's and grandparents. Overall, I was exhausted. Considering you don't trick or treat as an adult, I think it was a success since I get her candy.

In light of the elections

I saw this on my friends blog and I thought it was too good not to post. So, for some Halloween fun that only cocmes around every four years---here you go....

HSM3!! LOVE IT!!

Can you guess???

We have a new game we like to play at our house....Now that little Andrea Bev is little Miss Mischievious, she likes to get into everything, throw everything around, not eat her food and just loves watching her mom clean behind her ( right after she already cleaned it).


The game is called----"CAN YOU GUESS WHICH ROOM ANDY HAS BEEN IN?" . I bet you will only need one try....Now, in her defense...we did JUST move and there are still plenty of boxes to go through...So Can you guess???



I have actually been amazed at how clean everything has kept. The key is to just clean it when she goes to bed at night. I am so grateful to the relief society for helping with the boxes, the elder's quorum for helping move them and to my husband for doing everything!!! There is still alot to do, but at least we can live in it now and find everything we need.

WE LOVE OUR NEW PLACE AND OUR FUN NEW GAME!!
