Update

This would be my newest hairstyle for my daughter. It doesn't seem to take me more than a couple of minutes, but she puts up with it for now. She also loves to play in any cupboard and tub as you can see. I just thought I would upload a few new photos.

My status is, I am doing okay, I really have to watch what I do because it can send me into a whirl wind. They do have me on a pump that I have to wear everyday all day long, it helps but at the same time it is quite annoying. I am also not good at sticking the needle in, so my helpful husband has to do it for me. I just can't do it, I don't know why it just freaks me out.

Strength and Creativeness

Okay so I found this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhLlnq5yY7k&eurl=http://mattandhollibesse.blogspot.com/&feature=player_embedded on a friends blog and I just wanted to share it with everyone out there. I really do hope that this touches everyone the way that it has done for me. Our callings as mothers in this life is something that no one can take away from us. To feel the love and spirit of the sweet child that we carry within us is something that our heavenly father as only given us the option to be apart of. I am so thankful for just that simple opporunity, I am thankful for the gospel and the plan of salvation and the knowledge that was given to me from my parents and teachers. I am thankful for the option of being able to "Create!!!" in this day and age.

Also this sweet child of mine that thinks he needs to come and visit this family early, well here is a picture of him looking straight at you!!! This would be our little precious baby boy. I just got out of the hospital yesterday and am on some pretty powerful medicine, but I wanted to just update our blog and say how thankful I am for my family and friends.

I love you all and miss you!!

One full day at the E.R.

Does anyone want a sick family? Yes we have all been really sick in our family with an awful cold that is going around. Daya got the worst of it from when I had my doctors appointment last week. We had ended up taking her to the E.R. early Friday morning and they just said she had an upper respiratory infection. Well then by the time that we get checked out of the E.R. and then get her prescriptions filled it is the afternoon. Well we came home and took a nap and by the time that we both woke up she was in respiratory distress. We had to run her back to the E.R. and finally after three breathing treatments we were on our way to recovery. I was so thankful for my dad giving a priesthood blessing and for my husband wanting it. The pediatricion that was on call was wonderful and stayed with us until they got us on the floor and that was about 9:00 p.m., then she returned before 8:00 a.m. the next morning. I was very impressed with her and am thankful for heavenly sending someone who would know what to do with our daughter. She ended up having croup, and that has been one of the hardest things to kick I think thus far.
Well we are all trying to get better since we all seem to have caught different types of colds.
Well we love you all and miss all of you and hope everyone is feeling good!!!

Another Day In Paradise

Well what has been happening this week. Well Daya decided she needed a midnight snack...that would consist of some juice and dog food. My dad has been pulling the dog food in at night so the "night animals" won't help themselves to the food. I was so shocked, I couldn't believe it, I made her spit it out. We also had fun trip yesterday to Safford. On the way home we decided to get ice cream from Dairy Queen and Chris asked me if we should get Daya anything. I said sure, we can get her a dilly bar from D.Q. Well that was a nice trip home, about the time we passed Ash Peak, that was enough of the ice cream, it was every where. It's just been "another day in paradise."
I do have to say that I am loving it though! I just can't wait for her play Buddie to get here. I am patiently awaiting his arrival.
We are also so excited about tomorrow, and I will blog and add pictures from this week and also pictures from tomorrow all at the same time.
Love and miss all of you!!!!

Temple Blessings

Well I know a lot of you are anticipating the Gila Valley Temple!!! We can't wait, it was such an exciting experience to be able to watch the broadcast of the ground breaking yesterday and to be able to feel the spirit of all of those who were there, in this life and the life beyond. I just wanted to share that we really felt the spirit especially of my G & G Thygerson, that side of the family was really there. Let me tell you that this temple is going to be biggest blessing for our family. Our family goal with the help of our Bishop is to be able to be endowed once this temple is built and to be able to have our family sealed together for time and all eternity. This is one of the most exciting things that I have ever had an interview with the Bishop about.

I am thankful for a loving father in heaven who is forgiving and for the atonement that our heavenly father so gave us. I am thankful for second chances and the opportunity to do this side by side with my husband and grow together with him and see his changes as he grows closer to thee.

This next Sunday will be a great start to all of this. Chris will be receiving the Aronic Priesthood, and he is very excited. He thought that when he was baptized he was ordained along with it, but they is no record, and Bishop would just like to have it done the right way twice rather than to have it all taken away.

I am thankful for all of the blessings that our family has received and really do appreciate the examples in our ward that have helped friendship Chris. I am thankful for all of my family and friends also.

I guess you can say that I am kind of bearing my testimony. Well please keep us in your prays and we try to meet this goal!!! So here we go...eagerly awaiting the temple to be built so help us get the things done which we need to do to get to the Celestial Kingdom!!!!

Love you all!!! - Whitney
