ECLIPSE = AHH-MAZING

Eclipse came out last week...My aunt flew in from California and we took Jaxson to see the midnight showing. It was FABULOUS! We made our own COUTURE shirts and painted Jaxson's face. He loved it. I think his shirt by far was the best. I told him that chicks will dig that he plays sports and has a sensitive side! :)

Paw Print!

Rivalry...Team Edward and Team Jacob!

BASEBALL ROCKS!

Thanks for some amazing tickets!!!

For Jaxson's Birthday we got him a trip to see the Red Sox play...I can't punish him for not being a Yankees Fan I guess! :) We went to two games against the Rockies. It was so much fun. The games were some of the best ones I have seen in a long time. I love baseball and being there is so surreal. Jaxson loved it. We went early and watched batting practice. He tried to get autographs but they wouldn't give any. Our friends Chad and Joslin went too and got us some pretty stellar tickets. We had so much fun and who knew Denver was a blast? Great shopping, killer pubs, and the Coors Stadium is pretty neat!

He made me wear Boston gear...don't get excited!

He had Pedroia's number painted on his face!

Game 1...again sporting the Red Sox gear for my son! :)

Coors Field

RED SOX...SAY WHAT?

I booked a trip for Jaxson and I (for his BDAY) to go watch the Boston Red Sox play the Colorado Rockies in June. We are going to see two games just he and I and he is SOOOO EXCITED! He loves the Red Sox! I love any professional sports games even if it is my teams biggest rivalry! GO YANKEES! Our family has become a bit obsessed with the whole going to professional games...I told Bart last night that I would live in an apartment if that meant we could go every weekend some where cool to see a game! I shouldn't say any professional game...just Football, Baseball, Basketball, and Indoor Football! I could live without golf, soccer, poker, bowling, etc...hahaha!

FAMILY PICS!!!

Found a great photographer up North...I act like Layton is 500 miles away! :) Thanks Chelsea! I am really going to try and be better about blogging since It took me like 40 hours to catch up on scrap booking...uploading my blog into a book is way easier!

WHO HAS A 10 YEAR OLD?

Jaxson Tuttle Age 10

He is #54 hitting the adult on the field :)

Ten years ago today, I remember having been on bed rest for two months with Toxemia, had gone in three times that week to labor and delivery with pains, and was puking in the toilet when my mom walked in and found me and said "that's it, we are going back in". I also was living with my parents at the time since Troy worked and I couldn't move. We went back in just before midnight on the 30th and they said that I had gone into HELP syndrome and the only way to cure it was to get the baby out. I was 33 and some change weeks and new this probably wasn't good. They started me on pitocin and MAG which if anyone has ever had MAG it sucks...they give it to you to make sure you don't have a stroke while delivering since my blood pressure the last time they took it was like 182/105. 14 hours later I inherited my mom’s great birthing genes and hadn't even dilated to a 1 so on the operating room we went. Just after 1PM they brought our beautiful baby boy into this world weighing in at 4 lbs. He wasn't crying but was semi alert. In and out of consciousness I could hear whispering and didn't really know what was going on. When I was all stitched up and back in the room, it was just my dad, my brother and Wayne and I heard him talking to my brother saying it wasn't good. Well, a day later and I finally am coherent enough to understand what the nurses are telling me and I still haven't held my little boy. With him being so early he was in the NICU, having a hard time breathing so he was on oxygen, he also couldn't maintain his own body heat so he was in an incubator, he couldn't breathe and eat at the same time so he had a tube down his throat, and he had Jondus so the incubator had lights in it. They told me he would be in the NICU for a while and that I could go in and see him once I was able to get up and moving around. So I think it was almost 24 + hrs before I saw him. When I did see him I knew this kid would be a fighter... and he was! After three and half weeks Jaxson was able to come home with us but his fight wasn't over yet.

DOOGAN GOT HITCHED...

Yes, the day that no one ever thought would come, did...my brother got married! Their wedding was on September 12th, 2009. If your thinking, I never got an invite, don't worry...Jim thought a text would suffice for most people. LOL! Seriously!

It was a lot of fun and the bride and groom looked great! My boys had a great time running around like mad men the whole time. Jaxson had to be drug off the dance floor at the end of the night. It was great to see old friends, new friends and family!

CONGRATS!

IT HAS BEEN A WHILE...

Yeah I know I suck at blogging lately...there is just too many things to try to keep up with now...facebook, myspace, blogger, email and texting which I have been informed I suck at! With that said, the last few months were super busy for me. I finally graduated from the University of Utah! HOORAY! The Boys are great and loving the weather. We just built Max a sandbox which I am sure Bart will love! ;) Jaxson finished up indoor football and is totally pumped that he lost three LBS during the season because he is sure it turned into muscle in his arms! I came out of retirement on coaching (LOL) and I am now coaching Cheer at Ogden High School. A lot less time than Drill Team that is for sure but still gives me my dance fix!

My parents got me extensions for my graduation present...I love them. I think I can now go like four days without washing my hair!!! LOL!


Bart sent me to Portland to see Anne for graduation...it was super fun! I love it there and wish I could move there. This is the only picture I will post of it because Anne made me promise I would exploit her online.

Me and da boys at graduation!

My super rents!

Thanks for the support chicas!
