I about went crazy.....

I about went crazy last week becuase our computer bit the dust and I was without a computer for a few days but we finally got a new one!! I felt like my connection to the outside world was lost without the internet! Thankfully, all of my photos were backed up on an external hard drive so I didnt loose any of those. Also, today Tyler borrowed a cool contraption from a guy at his work that allows us to hook into our old computer's hard drive and retrive the information on it even though the old computer wont even turn on! So we didnt loose anything. So I am back and will hopefully be checking up on everyone's blog again!

Halloween ... Finally

So I am finally getting around to posting the Halloween Pictures. Sorry, life gets so hectic.

Justin was a puppy dog ... well for about 2 minutes. Wyatt (Justin's buddy from across the street) came over for pictures. Wyatt was a happy, mellow dragon and Justin got out his puppy dog eyes and pouty lip and cried for the whole 2 minutes that he had his costume on. I finally gave up when he laid on the floor and cried until he hit his face on the tile and cut his lip. I decided that I wouldnt fight him the whole day. Poor kid, he has to go through so much so Mom can have fun on Halloween! Anyway, he ended up being a Deer Hunter for the rest of the day. What a cute Deer Hunter he was!

On the day that mattered the most he refused to take a nap. I even tried taking him for a ride in the car to get him to fall asleep...nope...not even after 1 1/2 hours.

We went to the ward Chili Dinner and then on the way to Grandma Clark's he feel asleep. And you all know what happens when you wake up a child who didnt take a nap who didnt want to be a puppy dog! He was a bit grumpy but we still had fun!!

Oh, this was Justin and Wyatt last year... it doesnt look like Justin was too happy to be a hotdog either. Maybe I should give up on the dog theme.

More Deer Hunt Photos

I decided to post a few more pictures of the deer hunt. Josh Peck took these pictures.

From left to right: Shay, Austin, Tyler, and Lee.

Here's a picture of Austin.

Huntin Report

Well, we're back from the hunt. It was a good hunting trip for me. I shot a four point. It is the biggest deer that I have shot. Thank goodness for a family that will help even if you are the idiot that shot a deer at the furthest point possible from any road. Really, it took us about 3 hours to drag it to the road.

I'll give you the readers digest version of what went down. Me, Lee, Shay, Austin, and Josh Peck went out Monday morning. I had hiked quite a ways from where we parked, and had spotted a buck one canyon over. I hiked over to get a better look at him. When I got closer I could see a spike and two point. It was about 9:00 am and I was checking them out when I glanced down below them and spotted a four point that had just come out of a group of pines. I got one shot off at him, and thought I hit him (this turned out not to be the case). He ran back in the pines. Lee was closest to me, so he hauled the mail over to where I was sitting. We checked out the hillside for about 30 minutes to see if the buck would come back out. Since I thought I hit him, Lee offered to go over and rummage through the pines to see if he could kick him out, or hopefully find him dead. I've got to hand it to Lee, this was no little hike. The group of pines was two very steep canyons over. It took him about 45 minutes to work his way over there. As Lee worked his way through the pines the four point came out. I shot again, and this time I really hit him. This was about 10:30 am I really would have been in trouble if I hadn't been hunting with Lee, Shay, Aust, and Josh. It was really steep, rocky, and thick. I would have never gotten him out without their help. Anyway, I have posted some pictures below for you to check out.

Here's a picture of the buck.

Me, Hillary and Justin. Gotta get a picture with Justin and his first buck.

Here's Lee. He did all the hard work. If you look real hard, you can see a road down there. That is where we had to drag the deer.

You have got to start the training early. Here I am with Justin and his toy gun that makes real gun noises that Hillary just had to buy at Walmart.

IVF Results

Ok, so it's not so good news. The pregnancy test was negative. I know the next question you are going to ask is "What now?" Well, we don't know.

A little bit of everything

This post is going to be a little bit of every thing.

So when I was on bedrest last week Tyler decided to round up some blaze orange for Justin for our hunting trip this coming weekend. He couldn't find an orange vest small enough to fit Justin at Walmart so he decided to buy some orange fleece and make one or two vests himself!! Tyler has been waiting for years to have a little boy to wear orange around camp on a hunting trip!Tyler is quiet handy. I did have to help him just a little with the sewing machine! Thanks Tyler! They will be awesome!

Grandma Sing (my mom) gave Justin a grocery cart the other day. Tyler put all of our extra tomatoes in the basket and they delivered them around the neighborhood. It was so cute. Justin thought he was so big pushing his cart up and down the side walks.

Last but not least, yesterday when Tyler checked on Justin during nap time this is what we found.... sound asleep

Poor little guy, Mom just had to get a picture before Dad could lay him on his back.

Thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU

Thank you to everyone who has wished us good luck! I it is wonderful to have all of the support and prayers.

A recap of today... 3 of 3 embryos survived the unfreezing process and were viable for the transfer. AMAZING!! They say that it is about 50% chance that a given embryo will be viable after unfreezing and all 3 of ours survived! We put all 3 back in!! Now that doesn't guarantee anything, so don't get too excited. With Justin we put 2 embryos back in and got one awesome little boy. We will take anything and will be happy.

I do know that Heavenly Father is in control and that things will work out how they should. I have faith in that.

Thank you again for all of the prayers and support.

PS
Diet update...I am proud to say that this morning I was .2 lbs below my goal weight to do In-Vitro!! What a great day! That makes it a total loss of 61 lbs since February and 100 lbs since Justin's birth last June. :) I will try to get some before & after shots posted soon.
