Another GREAT check up

Had another great check up appointment with my doctors on Tuesday. My INR is 1.9 a little on the lower side, but they didn't change anything with my coumadin level because I have been having nose bleeds that have lasted for an hour or so, I think it's because the cold weather and dry air. You gotta love Utah air ;) The doctors told me if I get another nose bleed I am going to have to go see a ear nose throat doctor.

Last night we went Walking with the Dinosaurs!! It was a blast even though we were basically the only ones without little ones. My favorite dinosaurs were the brachiosaurus that the one with the long neck and ankylosaurus with the club for a tail. I still can't believe that the club weighs 150 lbs. CRAZY! Kate (sister in-law) and I made these sweet dinosaur hoodies, well mostly Kate did all I did was cut some stuff.





So I forgot to mention that Lauren Roundy got married on December 30, 2014. Whoot whoot so dang happy for her and Brigder. The wedding was amazing as usual, but it was a cold and windy day 21 degrees to be exact! Don't worry, I had my huge parka on and a nice large scarf. Loved spending time with all our friends and catching up.


Still waiting here...I know I need to enjoy and charish this moment that I am in now because I know and understand that it will come in His time not mine. Sometimes it is really hard to remember that especailly when you are ready to Rock n' Roll!!

quarantine = self reflection

I was talking with my lovely mother on Facetime this morning and she suggested to post on my blog. I look at my blog and noticed I haven't posted since November! So here you go, during this crazy time I am no longer working and my day to day tasks have shifted drastically. I am sure all of you know what is going on all over the world. I hope all of you are staying safe and healthy. I have been in this situation before. I was taken out of the game due to my heart, my life was soccer. Now my life was going to work and heading off to soccer practice, but COVID-19 has taken that away. I am reflecting on my response when my heart wasn't doing that well. At first I was frustrated and asking why? Now I am doing the same thing. WHY? Because I am HUMAN I know!!! This time I caught myself and decided to choose another route.  My alternate route has been getting outside every darn day, no matter the weather and enjoying the beauties of this earth, sun, clouds, rain, breeze, nature, the ...

Stinking Breathing Tube!!!! Actually they are out!!! YAYA

Anywho the stinking breathing tube is still in, which makes it more than miserable for Ashley. She is so frustrated, can't talk, can't get anyone to understand what she is trying to say.  It's difficult to see her suffer like she has. The Dr. just told us it's not all just up to her, her lungs may just be that full of fluid that the oxygen saturation may just be low. They have gotten lots of fluid off her which is helping and we are hoping later today will be the day. It's going to take getting that out to  get her up walking and making leaps and bounds of improvements. We are calling today day 2 post surgery, she was on bypass through the weekend which did not put her ahead any, she had fluid on board already from the first surgery so now the fluid has basically compounded. 8PM Update- Breathing tubes are out, still on oxygen, much less irritated, she has one of her favorite nurses on tonight and we think another one of her fav's  will be working wit...

FOREVERRRRR

I know it has been a while since my last post and I have been debating to post for the past 3 months. I was hiking with one of my friends and we were talking about my blog and adoption. I said it is sometimes hard because the main reason why I started this blog is to be my true self.  I know I have been talking about surrogacy and adoption and the that jazz. But sometimes I feel like I am putting on this persona that isn't me. I want to be real with all y'all still supporting me on this wild crazy adventure. So the main reason why I haven't posted is because there hasn't been any big news. I remember posting something about enjoying normal life once I got out of the hospital and yes normal life is great. But define normal life? No one's life is normal! It is more like chaos. Steve and I (mainly Steve) our redoing our new home we bought back in May and let me tell you it has been a whirlwind. Hoping to be in the house by mid September. We are back in the garage...
