First Appt. with the Doctor!




Who knew Doctor appointments would be so great! Doctor Heath is wonderful. Probably the best one I have ever met...and I have seen my fair share of Doctor's. He retired from the Navy and just recently moved to Cedar City. Which I am so happy about. I was able to hear the heart beat, and see a picture of our baby. We did an ultrasound and found out that we now have just one baby. I know, some people were hoping for more than one...except for me...I really just want one at a time. I couldn't stop crying when I saw our baby. It was kind of surreal. The Doctor confirmed that we are about 10 weeks, and he said that everthing looks great. The placenta is in the wrong place right now, but he said it should move the more time goes by. So, yes I am definitely Pregnant. And now that I have seen our baby, I am even more excited about this, whole being pregnant thing. In just four weeks I will be back in the Doctor's office. And just ten more weeks and we will be able to tell if we are having a boy or girl. How exciting. I used to dread doctor's appointments, and now I am really excited about them.



I am now in awe of how life is created and what a miracle life really is.



XOXOXO- Erin

I love that you are going to be a mother ( I mean, technically, you already are right? ) My little sisters are so grown up...now if only I could get through my stinkin' issues and stop crying every day. hehe I should have a crazy day tomorrow...I'll let you know how it goes!

You and Nathan will make wonderful parents! That is a great picture the doctor was able to get. It looks like you may have a very photogenic baby on your hands.:-)

No Excuses

June's Cooking Show! June always wants to cook and has been begging me to film her cooking. I had a million excuses, but I decided that June didn't care that she was in her jammies. She didn't care that the kitchen had bad lighting. She didn't even care what she made. She just wanted to have her mom film a video of her cooking in the kitchen (like she loves to do with me). So, with my IPhone in hand and all those excuses that I created I threw them out the window and decided to STEP UP and be the mom she wants and needs. We made the first video in 2017 and she loved it so much. We got busy and made more excuses. June didn't give up though. She wanted to do another video. So, on a school night I wanted to make banana bread and decided that we are already making it, so I might as well let June make it and film it. June loves to cook and watching her video's. I love her so much and I want her to do the things that she loves to do, so, I will continue to not ma...

2 Years Old, Really?!

So, our little girl Cheryl Love turned 2 on January 5th! We actually have a 2 year old. Wow. It was so much fun. Cheryl loves monkey's and her new favorite movie is Jungle Book (if I let her she would watch it all day), so we decided to do a monkey themed birthday party. We had vines hanging from the ceiling and I even made a monkey cake. We had Bonnie my cousin and her daughters, Shaylee and Brooke and my cousin Adriann and her daughter Ivy and of course me, Nathan, CHERYL, and June. Plenty of people and poor Nathan the only boy. Oh well whats ya gonna do, huh? We had so much fun. We ate Jimmy Johns sandwiches(sorry Joi), and frozen banana Popsicles dipped in yogurt and they were really good. It is one of Cheryl's favorite snacks and healthy too. We played pin the banana on the monkey, without the blindfold. And of course ate cake and opened presents. Thanks to all who gave to Cheryl. Cheryl now has a big girl bed that she adores and loves to be in. Whew, I was so worried that...

Eternal Role

Today's Family: The Eternal Role of Mothers click on link to read the article http://www.lds.org/study/prophets-speak-today/unto-all-the-world/the-eternal-role-of-mothers?lang=eng I love this paragraph about mothers. "Among the most important roles of a mother is the call to nurture, Elder Ballard says. “A mother’s nurturing love arouses in children, from their earliest days on earth, an awakening of the memories of love and goodness they experienced in their pre-mortal existence,” he declares. “Because our mothers love us, we learn, or more accurately remember, that God also loves us.”" "Mommy, I love you!", Cheryl says as she wakes me up at 6:30 in the morning. "I love you too, honey", I say, as I hug her tight and never want to let her go. I will take those moments any chance I get, whether it's 6:30 in the morning or in the middle of the night while I am sick and holding my sick child. I have never felt that I truly found my...
