Tenny

I love these pictures. I can't believe that she is getting so big. It is going by way to fast!

Best Weekend Ever!

Last weekend was mine and Jared's Anniversary. We had some things already going on last weekend so we celebrated it this weekend. Jared planned it and made all the reservations and he did amazing!

First we went to my friends Spa in Salt Lake (Xscape) for massages. SOOOOOOOO Relaxing!Then we went to lunch at a little Deli that a friend had recommended that was really fun and different. After that we went and checked in at the Grand America Hotel. Then we went shopping at the Gateway. It was cold but really fun. We went to dinner and then to Wiseguys comedy club. We slept in and then went to the brunch at Grand America. Which is totally amazing! Such yummy good food. Then before we came home we walked through the courtyard because it is so pretty. Of course I forgot my camera so the only 2 pictures I have are from my cell phone. Oh well at least I remembered to take some at all.

Thanks so much Jared! It was a great weekend and so much fun. I am so lucky to have such an amazing husband.

I love these pictures of Tenley and Payton.

3 Months

I can not believe that my baby is 3 months old. It has gone by so fast. I just want her to stay little and she is growing so fast. She is my biggest kid.

In the last 3 months we have just been crazy busy. New Baby, Boys basketball, Jared's basketball, I went back to work, back to teaching, had a kidney stone for the very first time in my life (hope to never have one again), kids had strep, baby blessing, Jax had a birthday, Happy 11th buddy!!! Valentines Day (which my husband did so good on...I got to go get an amazing facial and re-connect with one of my best friends from high school), Had the kids dentist appointment from HEdouble. Apparently two boys have major issues with teeth and Payton has 2 cavities, Baby had a major blowout while we were there. Next Monday they will be pulling out 6 of Jax's teeth all at once and fixing Payton's cavities. It will probably not be a very fun day. And just so I have something to look forward to Ike is missing like 8 permanent teeth. So when he looses the baby teeth there is no tooth that will grow in. I think i am going to have to get a third job just to pay the dentist. Ha Ha! And finally in the next week I have my mom's bday, Payton's bday, and my wedding anniversary. I think I need a vacation!

I have some adorable pictures from the baby blessing and will try to get them on here soon.

Basketball

Once again I signed Jared up to coach both of the boys basketball teams. SO FUN!

Finally

After a super long month...Tenley Grace Harward is finally here. She was born on Friday Nov 26th. She weighed 5lbs 14 oz. It was my hardest pregnancy and my easiest labor. It was only about 2 hours total. I pushed 3 times. (about 5 minutes) It was awesome. The only downside to it was that it was so fast that I got my epidural right before so it had not really kicked in. I had thought about trying to do it natural so I guess I got my wish and I would never think of doing it natural again. Thank goodness for drugs.

We are so happy that she is here and is a part of our family. After such a big gap between kids I am totally enjoying this little sweetie. She is so so so fun!

More time...hopefully

Things are going good at my house. I am still the same. I am now 36 weeks.
I am hoping to make it another couple of weeks. Here is why...

First: At the end I start to get a little nervous of what is to come. I am so ready to not be pregnant but I am going to have a huge adjustment having a baby around again.

Second: My husband still has football. Lone Peak is doing so good. They play this Thursday up at the U of U stadium and if they win that game then they will play in the State Championship Game the week after. It is so so exciting and would be so fun if they make it to the Championship game. But it is keeping him busy and with all these tests and going to the hospital Jared has not been able to go with me at all. It would just be easier if I had the baby after the season is over. As long as they don't start me on a Thurs or Friday we should be ok though.

Third: I want my baby to get as big as she can. I always have little ones. Any weight that she can gain is good.

and finally Fourth: I would love to make it past Thanksgiving. We go to Jared's mom's house this year and there are always a million little kids. It would be hard to go with a newborn. I would probably be a nervous wreck the whole time.

So I am still pregnant and still trying to take is easy but it is getting really old. I have to remember that it is all worth it in the end.

Oh and Payton is in a fashion show on Wednesday night up in Salt Lake and she is so excited. I would be sad if I could not go with her. I will post pictures after. SOOOOOOO Cute!
