A lot has changed in these last few months with added baby and all! So lets start with her.
Miss Haylo Sofia was born on June 4 at 4:20pm she was HUGE! 9lbs and 10.5oz and 21inches long. She was so big that when she cam out her face was all bruised and her eyes had bloodshot rings in them for about a month. She was big but oh so beautiful!After coming home from the hospital I was a little overwhelmed with all that was changing for Petyl. She is still my baby but now is the big sister and that was hard...but after a few days it was only really hard for me. Petyl is an amazing big sister. She tries to hold haylo hug haylo and even tried to nurse her once. Yes all these "sweet" things are very nice but very scary! LOL but really Petyl is getting much better. And it is so cool to see how much they love each other already. If haylo makes one peep petyl is right there or yelling for me to come help sister. And even if petyl is squishing haylo to death haylo just smiles and laughs at her big sis!
The rest of the summer was really awesome. The girls and I went to Utah with the Rowlans for 2 weeks and I got to meet more of the family and have constant help with the girls. Petyl embraced her wild banshee and ran around the field all day and night, Fed horses every day, lit fire works, rode a quad, and enjoyed time with Forrest the dog. It was great!
After we got home things got CRAZY!
Trustan took on another full load this semester with classes 5 days a week after a full load of work. He has been exhausted but hopefully this is the last semester like this for a while.
I started back in my Teen Mom's Becoming Group and also with a friend started a Neighborhood Group(Bible Study) for the girls. It has been so amazing! I also was invited to a womens bible study and it is like changing my life! The women are so awesome and teaching me so much. I love the free childcare and so does Petyl. I cant wait for it to start back up in January. I also started back at my Neighborhood Group and really feel like a part of the family now :)
Halloween was so fun! Petyl dressed up as horse(she really wanted to be this white and pink horse!). She got lots of Candy and had fun watching spooky movies and seeing all the scary houses! We went back to Tolmacoff Farms and picked out a pretty plump pumpkin! Petyl got to ride the train by herself and feed all the stinky farm animals. OH p.s. I DID get an awesome gift of Halloween having my bestie Amanda Schoech come home to stay!
Thanksgiving(my favorite holiday) was super great this year. My mom hosted and cooked for Trustans family and even his Aunt Sandy and their family. It was really nice to have everyone together and even Trustan said that my "scheme" was actually good! So hopefully this means one year I will be allowed to have Thanksgiving with everyone at our house ;)
OH and Carissa Got married so we went and celebrated their special day!
So yea that is pretty much what you have missed these past few months. All the December festivities have begun and I will post another blog with all the fun details.
