December 2011

Well, It's December 2011. Today Kaylie turns 3. WOW! It's Crazy how fast time goes and how fast the girls grow. Alayna is starting to read and loves kindergarden. Kaylie is 3 now and is still CRAZY. she is speaking so well. It's weird to hear her sentences. Adalyn is almost 6 months old and is traveling all over the place by rolling. She is getting on her knees so it's not to long before she will be crawling.

Work has been busy. I am still working at the state prison as a Paramedic. I work PGFD part time as a Paramedic/Firefighter. I have also been working as a reserve firefighter/paramedic for Sandy fire department.

Brooke has only worked 1 out of 8 shifts at the hospital due to not enough babies being admited to the NICU. Timp Hospital just built a new wing on the hospital just for a new NICU. It is state of the art with something like 26 beds. They are now taking care of babies born as early as 26 weeks.

Brooke has been amazing at keeping her blog updated. For all of the day to day goings on, her blog is the best.

After Mommy's Doctors appointment, we didn't want to go home yet so we kept driving until we reached Bridal Vail Falls. We spent about an hour walking around and throwing rocks into the water. It was a nice little escape for our family.

Alayna turned 5. Wow she is getting so big.

Kaylie was SO good at picture this time and we ended with some great ones of her in her fairy costume.

Us in February

February has been a busy, but great month for our family. Brooke is still getting 3 liters of fluid a day through her PIC line, but has been able to return to work 2 day's a week. Of course she is wiped out the next day or two. Baby Adalyn is doing great and is a "wiggly Baby" as Brooke puts it. Feeling her kick is a favorite for Alayna, Kaylie and myself.
I passed my National Paramedic test and became Nationally Registered as an EMT-Paramedic. Alayna and Kaylie are growing up FAST and getting smart! Kaylie is still the trouble maker, her daily activities range from drawing on everything with whatever drawing instrument she can get her hands on, climbing everything to get what she shouldn't get, and somehow finding any piece of candy in the house and eating it. She is also becoming VERY eficiant at pushing Alayna's buttons. (she finds it amusing) Alayna told me two things; She doesn't want to turn 5, because she doesn't want to get her shot's. And she wants to be a boy, so she doesn't have to get pregnant. lol
I guess that's it for now. Thanks for reading.

Cooking the Utah County way.

Grandma and Grandpa Harris were over the other day and brought us some things that they were cleaning out of their kitchen. Among the knives and meat slicer (like the kind at your local deli only smaller) was a box full of cook books. As I was looking through the box to see what culinary masterpieces I could now cook I couldn't help but laugh out load at what I found. 4 microwave meal cookbooks, 7 various Ward cookbooks, and...wait for it...3 JELL-O cookbooks. WOW! what a collection of treasures we have now. So, if any of you out there in Blog land in in need of a great Jell-o or Microwave Masterpiece please let me know.

IT'S A GIRL!!!

Well It's another Girl. Adalyn Mackelle Drew is Due July 1st 2011. But is expected to come into the world around June 6th. With Brooke being as sick as she is we have decided that this will be our last child. Yep, 3 and out for me and Boy's. I guess I'll have to make my legacy big enough that It alone will continue for generations to come. =)
