Brave Marshall

Yesterday was our Primary Program in church. I have worked for about 1 month with Marshall on his part so that he would have it memorized and be brave enough to say it in front of everyone. The first day we practiced he had it memorized, but I would periodically ask him so that he would know it so so well and be brave enough to say it. Well Saturday we had a practice, he stood in line with the other sunbeams and all of a sudden he was getting teary eyed and a pouty face, so i went to him and said let me help you, but he wouldn't do it. After the practice he said, "Mom, if you take me to get a happy meal I promise I will say my part tomorrow." I thought yeah right, he isn't going to he is just way too shy, but I couldn't say NO, so I took him. We woke up early on Sunday got ready and Marshall was in a bad mood. You could tell he was nervous and everything was bugging him. I thought no way will he say his part! I am a teacher in Primary so I was up with all the kids. The Sunbeams all lined up, Marshall included, he had a smile on his face, it was his turn, he looked at Korrine (Primary President), and said,"I don't need help I can do it myself", he stood up and said right into the microphone, "My name is Marshall and I know that I am a son of Heavenly Father." Then he got down. I was so so so so proud of him. My eyes got all watery and I could have cried. He was so brave, and he kept his promise. The rest of the program he kept putting his hand up in the I Love You form and waving down to Daddy, Grandma Hall, and Papa Cutright. Anyway, just wanted to share that with you, I am so proud of Marshall and how brave he is getting. He is a shy little kid, but Primary and Preschool are helping him quickly become so brave!!!

Private Blog

Today I realized that Jake and I were not on the same page about this blog. He was under the impression that only certain persons were able to see our blog, which is not the case. We have decided to make our Blog Private, that is the Police side of Jake coming out :0). So if you would like to be able to see our blog please leave a comment with your email address or send me an email and I will add you to the list. Sorry, I know private blogs are annoying, but I want to make my hubby happy!! I am going to change it over in the next few days, so let me know.
Thanks :0) So in a few days if I don't have your email address it will show this:

HEARTBURN

Ok, this is bad . .. I thought I had it bad with Marshall, that was nothing!! At night it is so bad that I spend the night like this:



Horrible. I laid down at about 10:00 this evening to go to bed, and am now sitting in front of the computer between barfing.

So anyone who has experienced this knows how bad it sucks..... any advice would be great. I take a RX Zantac at brkfst and then at dinner I take an Rx Zantac and Prilosec. I have tried to not eat anything after 7:00pm, however still major heartburn. Leave me a comment with any advice or tricks that you may have. Anything would be wonderful. I try sitting up to sleep, doesn't help.

I am so proud of Jake

So I know that I am post happy today, that's okay . . . I finally have a minute that I can be. I just wanted Jake to know how proud of him I am, and that I am so happy for all he does for us. His job has been really stressful lately, and it brings you down, it is hard to want to go to work. It has also been super busy, he has not had a day off in over 21 days. Finally tomorrow he gets to have off. YIPPEE!! It is hard when you are having to help everyone at your job, and listen to everyone be babies and complain all the time. Well a position opened up in detectives for Robbery/Homicide. That is a position that is highly wanted, well Sargent asked Jake if he would like that spot, Jake said sure. Oh boy . . . . . that is where all the drama started. But to save a long story, JAKE GOT THE JOB!! It doesn't pay more, but it is a spot that you earn by working hard, showing your dedication and proving that you can handle anything that is thrown before you, and that is exactly what Jake has done!!! He will do such an awesome job! Love you Jake.

103 Days and Counting

I had my Dr. appointment today. Everything was good, baby was measuring perfect, heart beat sounded wonderful. We made a date for the C-section of January 6th. So Baby Kambria will be born on a Tuesday, January 6th. Having a set Date makes me so excited. It makes it seem like it really will get here and she will be part of our family!! So I have 14 1/2 weeks to go, or 103 days to go. Considering I have been pregnant for 25 weeks, and found out what I was having at 16 weeks (and that came pretty fast), 14 1/2 weeks is sounding closer and closer. I am soooo ready!! I went shopping yesterday with My mom, grandma and sister up to Park city and my mom bought me some maternity clothes and some baby girl clothes. Girls are fun to dress!!! Anyway other then that nothing new going on! We are doing good. I have major Heart Burn, but today my Dr. gave me some tips . . . . hopefully they will help. There is nothing worse then throwing up and having it come out your nose :0)

Marshall's Birth

As my due date gets closer, however still very far away . . . I am starting to get anxious, and a lot of memories from Marshall's birth are coming back to me, making me a bit nervous. I am so thankful for Marshall and I truly feel that he is my miracle baby. It was very hard to get him to earth, and then he was born dead, and was revived. I have included a video if anyone wants to see this experience I had, it is a little graphic, so if you don't like blood, you may not want to watch, because it does have part of my C-section on it. This next time it is just a C-section, that should go very smooth. We love Marshall so much, he is getting so big, I really couldn't imagine my life without him! Here is a little bit from my journal about that day:

When Marshall came out he was not breathing and did not have a heart rate, he had to be resuscitated. Marshall is my miracle baby. I was not able to hold Marshall until the next day at Noon. When they brought him in he was so beautiful and so tiny. I wanted to cry I was so happy.
After my surgery I had to go to recovery for 2-3 hours. The nurse would push on my tummy and I would grab her hands and throw them in the air and tell her stop because it hurt. I then remember telling her that I did not want to see anyone, I was too embarrassed because of everything that I was saying. Of course my family is so great, that no body cared they were all just worried about me and Marshall and our well being.
--Poor Jake, they would not allow him to see me while I was in recovery and he could not see Marshall either, he was having breathing problems so he was being taken care of. Jake is sure caring and knows exactly how to be a good husband and dad.
Marshall is the greatest blessing in our lives. We are so happy to have him as a part of our family. I am thankful for the priesthood and for Jake for being worthy to be able to give me a priesthood blessing, without that I really don’t know what would have happened. The Lord was certainly watching over us that day and knew that we needed Marshall in our lives. Prayer is amazing and I know without a doubt that Heavenly Father answers everyone of our prayers. I am also thankful for a doctor that is in tune with the spirit and listened to it and advised for the C-section. Marshall is a miracle Baby !!!

So I can't figure out how to get the DVD on here, so If I figure it out, I will post it later.

Free at last . . . . .

Well after some hard decisions, and much prayer I am no longer employed!! We decided that it was better for me to be a homemaker full time. My little 9.00 an hour doesn't help much compared to Jakes overtime he can get. We figured out that if Jake works just 3 extra days a month, he can make more then what I made at Jetblue. Probably double what I made at Jetblue. So Yesterday was my last day at JetBlue. It is kinda bittersweet. I am so so happy to be at home only now, but I am sad to loose my flight benefits. We know that me being home will bring us blessings, and will make us stronger as a family. Anyway, I was just excited and wanted to share my news!!

Beautiful Fairview

We went to Fairview Lakes over the weekend. It was really pretty. We just hung out and Jake and Marshall enjoyed fishing. Marshall used Grandpa's fishing pole, and he thought he was pretty cool. He got a lot of bites, but didn't catch a fish this time. Jake did catch one fish!
