Jeremy's fractured foot!

Tuesday night July 15th Jeremy was playing B-Ball with some friends and he fractured his foot.  It is fractured on the top inside of his foot.  I should have taken pictures of the swollen foot so you could get the whole effect.  It was really big.  When all the swelling goes down then he has to get a cast on it.  So he'll be on crutches for 6 weeks.  I told him I'd be more than happy to drive him to work.  Needless to say, his basketball playing career is over!  

Brayden and the DTP shot!

This  is a few pictures of Brayden's arm.

It is very swollen from the reaction to the DTP shot.

It's pretty sad! He woke up feeling okay this morning.

Birthday Pictures!

This is a pic of what I got for my birthday.  I forgot to put the cookbook in there that Rachel gave me.  So mom and dad gave me the shirt and the Book of Mormon book, Teresa gave me the wallet ( I love it)  Madelyn made me the pink card- one of the things she put on the card was "p.s. you are so stylish"!  Isn't she so cute!  The makeup bag is from myself, I love it because I can see all my makeup and I don't have to dig around for what I need, and it has a place for brushes. It is so cute.  The outside is white with pink dots.  Melanie gave me a singing card, and a cute friendship magnet.  The card with the big "30" is from mom.  Isn't she sweet. When you move the card the 30 gets bigger and then smaller!  Thanks, mom! So that's it!  

My 30th Birthday!

So today is my 30th birthday.  Pretty uneventfull!  Which is good and bad.  This morning I woke up and I had to drag myself out of bed, which I don't normally have to do because the highlight of my day is going to the gym and that all has to happen early in the morning so its normally pretty easy getting out of bed. Well the kids and I made it to the gym (a little late) which I really hate!   I like getting to places with time to spare!  Then life doesn't feel so rushed.  Anyway, after the gym, we all went home and ate lunch.  Then we just lounged around.  I was able to talk to mom, Teresa, and my friend Melanie from Utah, but now she lives in Washington.  Melanie and I talked for probably 2 hours! We haven't talked for awhile, so we needed to catch up.  Yesterday, my friend Rachel called me and we talked for a long time also.  Thank you everyone for trying to make my birthday a good one, but it just isn't the same when you can't have all of your family and friends with you to share the special day.  If we all lived closer it would have been a wonderful day!  But it was just okay.   When it became clear that Jeremy wouldn't be home for dinner, I decided that we would go eat dinner.  So we went to Red Robin.  I had our waitress take our picture.  Before I decided to go to dinner, Brayden was complaining that his arm hurt.  The day before, he had a polio shot, and a DTP shot.  He had been complaining more than I thought was normal, so I looked at his arm!  Oh my gosh-  His entire upper arm where the shots had been given, was swollen and red!  When I touched it- his skin was so taut.  Hard.  So I called a nurse.  We needed to take him in.  So we went to dinner then went to see the doctor.  Well turns out he had a reaction to the DTP.  He's had 3 of those shots in the past. Never had a reaction. So I guess a reaction can happen anytime.  We can give him ibuprofen, and wait for the swelling to go down.  The doctor said it will take a couple of days.  I feel so bad for him.  His arm and shoulder is double the normal size.  Well I've posted some pics of this day.  Enjoy!
