Back in KY and more!

Long time no blogging. I’ve missed it truly! Lots to say and write about but first things first…

We’re back! Back in Kentucky with the hubs and Scoti has a dad finally. It was a long trip to Utah but oh so amazing! I can’t wait till we can all be back in Utah together and living a normal life. We moved from Lexington to a town called Bowling Green and I really like this town. Lots of things to do, so hopefully we can keep busy and not let this hotel we are staying in get to us. We are in Hotels now till the end of the season and I don’t think I could possibly be unhappier with them. Cleaning your daughter’s black hands and feet 10 plus times a day gets old and is downright disgusting. I’m almost 99% positive we are staying in the only hotel without a swimming pool too, like what the heck?? But it is pet friendly, yay, now I can just imagine how many cats and dogs have pissed all over this place. I thought one bonus would be the fact someone comes in and does the cleaning. Nope.. Pretty sure they came in yesterday and didn’t change the sheets and looked like they slept in our bed after they made it, the floor wasn’t swept, floor wasn’t vacuumed, counters weren’t wiped, toilet wasn’t clean, nothing actually. Save me the time of having to try and hide my belongings and set my towels outside the door and knock. The only thing I can actually think of them coming in for is to check for meth labs and growing marijuana, since this place smells just like we’d have those for neighbors.

On the positive side though, outside of this place is lots of fun activities. We went to the aquatic park a few days ago and I think will go back today… Since that is the only place we can really swim.. There is an amusement park here too we will go on Sunday. Lots of museums and a few other things we will try and get to as well. We are about an hour from Nashville too so I definitely want to go spend a day there.

This is how they made our bed yesterday.
Doesn't it really look like they took a little nap.

at the aquatic park!

Now a recap of my last two weeks! Adelaide’s blessing, Boating, Mothers Bday, 6 month appt, St George, Salt lake, Lindie’s Bday!

Sunday morning Bailey, Scoti and I drove down to St George for baby Adelaide’s blessing and it was beautiful! It was fun to see everyone and see this pretty girl! Her cousin got blessed at the same time and they were both just so stinking cute and so small! It makes me so sad being away from her while she is in this tiny stage. When we get back she’ll be like 3 months old I think.

We had been trying to plane a lake day for a few days now and the weather wasn’t helping us out. Finally on Monday it was looking good and even though it was suppose to rain it wasn’t suppose to start till after 6! We got there around 1 and right as we were pulling in it started sprinkling. Luckily it stopped seconds later and we were good to go! I was so excited to Wakeboard since I wasn’t able to all last summer! Payton went boarding first and then it started raining again. We all got in the boat and took cover and drove to the other end of the lake where we were good again. Now Payton’s friend wanted to go so we let him. By the time he was done the water was so bad and we knew a storm was about to hit. We went over to some little cliffs and jumped off and then had to get off the lake before the rain. Maybe next time I can board!

My freaking beautiful mother had another birthday and for the love of her I wont dispute her age but lets just say she is the hottest lady/mother in a 5-year radius of her age. Oh I love her so much and couldn’t ask for a better mother and grandma! She is the best!

I made this cake for her! Impressive right?? I was proud of myself.
Don't mind I can't spell Birthday either. Common mistake....

Scoti’s 6-month appointment was such a pain. We had an appointment in St George for the Friday after the fourth but then Payts was in his baseball tournament and I really wanted to be there for his state game Saturday so I was going to have to drive to St George, drive back to rich and then Sunday drive back for Adelaide’s blessing. No thank you! So I changed it to the 18^th in St George but then had to be back to St George that Thursday so again I would drive down that Monday then drive back and drive back that Thursday. Sounds like a lot of driving with a little girl who hates her car seat and driving. So I passed and went to a doctor in Richfield. Chad like things Richfield is a piece of poo and everyone sucks here or something. He was very concerned about taking our daughter to a doctor in Richfield. What a freaking weird man I have. The doctor was great and Scoti was great. The only thing I didn’t like was they didn’t give me her percentages and I love that.

Naked and ready for the Dcotor!

Thursday we went down to St George with my friends and stayed at Cyds. Let’s just say I should have taken pictures of her whole house and posted one hundred pictures so you understand me when I say her house is my DREAM HOUSE! I freaking love every little thing about it. We swam all day Thursday and then went to the Heward's for dinner that night! Friday McCall got married so we went to that and she was just beautiful as ever and looked so happy! That night on our way home we stopped at her reception in Parowan and then kept going home to Richfield! Oh I can’t wait to be back to St George. I hate leaving it now!

Saturday we went to Salt Lake! My family was headed to Northern Cali for regionals for Payton and so we went to stay with Lindie and Cam till we flew out that Monday evening. It was so fun staying with these two newlyweds. Poor cam slept on the couch and let me and Scoti sleep in bed with Lindie. What a great man right?? Lindie got me started on Gossip Girl so now I’m pretty much hooked and watch it every day out here!

Relaxing with Aunt Lindie and Uncle Cam!

Wearing Lindie's jewels and church!

Saying bye at the airport!

Yesterday was Lindie’s birthday! Big 24! Holy like really that is so old. This girl needs to freaking start having babies! I love her so so much though and couldn’t ask for a better bigger sista!

JULY!

Scoti and I just got back form a little morning walk and she is out cold. So I am going to attempt to blog but depending on if she stays asleep will determine how long this is and what I even get to.

So who really knows who reads this but for anyone who does remember how like not even a month ago I had a poor me post about how my husband won’t buy me a new wedding ring?? K well the next day after that I decided I would just order me another fakey. Like honestly they look like the real thing and I decided that would work for now. So I found me a beauty for a big $24.99 and order it. It came a few days later and I was in LOVE with it. It was like my dream ring but not quite as expensive. I was happy, Chad was sure happy and I looked married. Well after a few short weeks and sad to report I’ve lost fake ring #2. This was really good tho, It was only $25 and we now know to never buy me a real one.  I had taken it off in the car to put some lotion on and left it on my lap. Minutes later I got out of the car to go into Target, a few hours after Target I realized what I had done. I loved this fake ring but the thought of someone finding this $25 ring and thinking they scored BIG was too good to go back and see if it was even there. So on to the next ring. At this rate I will just have fake rings the rest of my life and when my days are over I will have spent enough money to buy the biggest diamond out there. Well.. Maybe.

Well one week down two to go. That sounds like I’m counting down the days till I get to leave here. False. I love being home and back in Utah and around all our family and friends. The only bummer part is Chad being in Kentucky and for that reason we will return the end of this month for the last month of the summer.

Here’s a little run down of our last week:

Sunday the 1^st Chad Scoti and myself went down to Louisville to hang out for the day and to sleepover since we would be flying out early the next morning. We went by the mall and I went into the restroom to change Scoti and Chad walked over to Claire’s. He has wanted to pierce her ears for the longest time! I have too but not nearly as bad as him. I guess we were both just sick of hearing her be called a boy. He came back over to us and was so happy to tell us two people were working and they could do it. Sooo we did it! I almost did it when she was 3 months old but after my dad giving me an hour-long lecture on how bad it was I didn’t do it. What a weird father I have. The piercing though was seriously harder for Chad and I than it was for Scoti. She did so well and has been great with them. They are just the cutest things in the whole world! That night we went to Cheesecake factory and then back to our hotel to just relax. It was a fun last day all together. Oh and yes Chad has been just itchin to get himself a pair of colored jeans and well he found some. Oh my husband that has more style than me. But really they looked freaking sexy on him!

Monday we landed in beautiful SLC bright n early! My mother came and picked us up and we went to City Creek to do a little shopping and eating. We got to Richfield that evening and had a dinner with lots of family that was down for the holiday. We went and visited all my friends and showed off all Scoti’s tricks!

Tuesday was the big 3 on 3 basketball tournament and diaper derby. Griff was playing in the 3 on 3 so we were down watching that most of the day. That evening was the diaper derby and I was so excited to put Scoti in it and have her kick some butt! The diaper derby is 6 carpet racing lanes with the babies at one end and parents shaking everything possible to get their babies to crawl to the other end and win 100 bucks. Well miss Scotlynn didn’t win her heat but she was one of the only two babies to leave the starting line. We had a fierce little mexi baby cruise down that 10 feet of carpet and take the victory in 5 seconds. I think they needed a proof of age from this chick though because she looked a good two years old with hair to her bum. Maybe my next child will be victorious.

Wednesday was the big 4^th of July baby! There is no way of describing the 4^th in Richfield. It’s nothing less than the best day in the world in the best town around. Starts off with the cannons at 6 am. No big deal this year, I was already up! My child can go to bed Utah time (10PM UT, 12AM KY) but can’t get the waking up switched (5AM UT, 7AM KY) so we were up waiting for them. We went down to the parade which let’s be honest it isn’t the funnest thing to sit and watch but you do and you love it. This year we had a special addition to the parade. We still yes had all the tractors, old cars, band, dancers and all that jazz but we were honored to get Tyler Jorgenson pour water on his body and zumba on the back of a diesel. That was a treat…………… After the parade we went to the park and had some lunch, watched our little cousin sing and watched Griff play in a co-ed beach volleyball tournament. Later that day we went to go watch grandma Sunnie’s field of stars play. Scoti was a little loud so we ditched out a little early. Darn. Then we had everyone over to our house for the big dinner and firework show! The only thing that would of made this day better is having my hubs on the blanket snuggling with me under the fireworks!

Is she not the cutest thing in this world??

Thursday, Friday & Saturday was all about Payts! He was playing in the state tournament for baseball and had games all weekend. You better believe we made it to every game! Even those bright n early 8 am ones! What a wonderful sister I am. It was double elimination but who needs that when you never loose! They made it to the state game Saturday night at 5 and were the champs! Payton pitched all six innings and did amazing! It was a bit freaky though when we all realized Payton’s twin was on the other team. We couldn’t help but stare and die they looked so much alike. And it wasn’t even that they looked a lot alike they had the exact mannerisms. From the way this kid celebrated to talked to when they lost and he cried, exactly how Payton cries! Freaky! The boys got to ride the fire truck down main so we went and cheered them on as they did that. They were some pretty excited boys! And now they head to Cali in two weeks! Too bad it’ll be right after I leave to go back to Kentucky!

Yesterday Me Bay and Scoti went down to St George for my little nieces baby blessing! It was so good to see everyone and let them all see my cute little girl and play with her! We had lunch over at the Heward’s with everyone and then headed home that night. Quick trip but so good to go down.

Now it’s Monday and I feel like we’ve just gone gone gone all last week so I woke up this morning and told myself I would do nothing. I went on a walk with Scoti and now we will lay around the house the rest of the day! Sounds good to me! As far as Chad goes, he is still just kickin some butt! I believe he reached his 150 mark last week and once the summer is over with preseasons and all he should be around 250. I couldn’t be a happier, more proud wife. We are now in the middle of talking to loan officers and figuring out if we will be able to purchase a home after the summer. Keep your fingers crossed! I don’t know if there is anything else exciting coming up… I want to go boating, go to cabin, go visit Lindie, go back to St George and a few other things but we’ll see what all happens in these next two weeks! Love being home and I just realize how much a really do love Utah! A few updates with my little Scotlynn!

-She is a pro at pulling up on anything and everything and now can walk along the things. She will start at one end of the couch and can walk herself to the other end and then can transfer to other objects as well. We’ll have a walker before we know it.

-I gave up breastfeeding. I know shame on me. I did it for 6 months and I guess lets just hope she doesn’t die now.

-Scoti has a fake cough and a fake laugh. I love them both so much!

-She grawls at you and makes the cutest faces.

-starting to like her baby food more and eats these rice puff treats.

-popped her bottom tooth. So cute!
