Crazy Changes

I'm not sure who all has heard, but my Aunt Kelly went missing on May 24th. Her body was found on May 28th. Her ex-husband of about 13 years is being charged with her murder. My cousins, Jes and Tanner, had her cremated and we celebrated her life June 11th with a memorial that was attended by over a hundred of Kelly's friends and our family. This definitely caused my world to quake. I love her and miss her very much! Her smile and crazy life will go on in stories to my children.



With my aunt missing, we decided to induce labor. Mitchell was born May 26th at 10:26. He weighed 7 lbs 6 oz and was 20 in long. It was only a 5 hour
labor which was crazy for an induction, but I was grateful, because the epidural wasn't working. Mitchell Joseph will be blessed on the 3rd of July. Let me know if you want to come!

So, somehow I fit that all in two paragraphs, not bad, lol.

Art is working at the Coppermill as a prep cook/line cook. He enjoys it there. He's also a driver at Pizza Hut. So he is very busy. On top of all his work, he has school! He's amazing, what can I say? I am trying my hardest to keep him sane and healthy.

Sara is learning more and more words. She keeps getting in to things and causing mischief, but I'm sure that's just her age. We've had a hard time keeping her happy
this last month. What with all the changes going on. The 8 hr drive to Montana was hard on her and she did not want to sit still for anything after that.

Mitchell has had a rough couple weeks. He was on a bilibed for his jaundice. That lasted a week. Then he got an eye infection that doesn't seem to want to clear up. All in all, he is however a healthy baby boy. He sleeps an average of eight hours a night with only one feeding in the middle and is not an overly fussy baby.

For Father's Day, Art received a Nightwish CD, a book with our hand outlines in the front cover, Daddy Lotto tickets, and we all went to Sacrament on time!

Happy Father's Day to all those other dads out there!
