What Happens When....

You run out of diapers?!




As soon as Dominik saw the camera he posed!


You use one of your daughter's preemie diapers!! Cheltzi has a Baby Alive doll that I bought preemie diapers for because they are cheaper than the baby alive diapers. Poor Nik has to wear a preemie diaper until Kevin gets off work. I knew we were running low on diapers, I just didn't know how low.


Good news! After his nap and soaking his bed, I found a couple of Dominik's diapers. He didn't have to wait all the way until Kevin got off work.

Memories

As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you.It's actually pretty cool (and funny) to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. :) If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.

Dominik's Funnies

This post is all about the funny things Dominik has been doing lately.

Dominik always rolls into something before he falls asleep. At this particular time he rolled up into his little snuggy bag and rolled into his Jumperoo and got stuck. He fell asleep before I noticed he was laying on the Jumperoo. I moved him after I took the picture. It was too funny and precious not to take.


I put Cheltzi's black hat, that my mom made, on Dominik. He is looking pretty silly.



Nik's New favorite food is Sea Food Medley!


He will do anything to get the cat food.


Cheltzi, Nik and I were singing silly songs that we found on our Yahoo music player and the next thing I knew Dominik was passed out in his Jumperoo.

Happy Anniversary Kevin!! I love you.

What is his name? Kevin Alexander

How long have you been married? 4 years

How long did you date? I can't remember! I know I am horrible and I should know but I don't.

How old is he? 23

Who eats more? That would have to be me!

Who said "I love you" first? Don't remember, but probably me.

Who is taller? Kevin

Who sings better? Definately me

Who is smarter? Kevin

Whose temper is worse? Kevin

Who does the laundry? Me, Kevin is not allowed to go anywhere near the laundry. That is just a disaster waiting to happen.

Who does the dishes? I do unless I let them go to long then Kevin does them. But I have been keeping up pretty well.

Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? This is kind of a confusing question for me because it all depends on what way you are looking at the bed. When we are lying down Kevin is on the right. We tried to switch and I couldn't sleep.

Who pays the bills? We discuss it together, but I am the one who actually pays them since he is at work all day.

Who mows the lawn? Lawn? We have rocks and cement behind us and cement in front of us. If we ever get a place that needs to be mowed Kevin will do it.

Who cooks dinner? I do. Kevin can make macaroni if he has to.

Who drives when you are together? Kevin. I am not the world's best driver.

Who is more stubborn? I would like to say me, but it's Kevin.

Who is the first to admit when they are wrong? Me. Kevin is doing better with it though.

Whose parents do you see the most? When we lived in Utah it was pretty equal, but now that we have moved to Colorado and Kevin's parents are here to we will be seeing them more.

Who proposed? There wasn't really a proposal. Kevin said, "Dude, I think I want to marry you." (isn't he so romantic)

Who has more friends? It's pretty equal, but when we were in Utah I saw more of mine. Now we don't have anyone.

Who has more siblings? We both have two.

Who wears the pants in the family? We wear the same pair! (I wish I could fit into his pants!)

Our First Church Experience in Rifle

Last night I decided I really wanted to go to church. I didn't know where it was but Kevin said if I got up early with him he would show me where to go and I could take him to work and have the van to go to church. We hadn't been to church since the beginning of March because the kids were sick for about two months and Kevin got his new job and ....excuses, excuses.... I will get on to my story.
The day started like this: Kevin got a call to go into work right before we left to see where the church was so he couldn't go with to find it. I almost said never mind we will wait until next week, but I didn't. I told Kevin I would google the address and put it into my VZ Navigator. I love today's technology. The kids and I got home and I made breakfast. I put Cheltzi and Dominik into their room and put the gate up so they couldn't get out. Because I was going to take a shower, but my skirt and shirt were in the garage so I went down and got them. I went to go back into the house and it was LOCKED!! I checked my pocket no keys. I opened the garage door and checked the van. (I am not very good at parking in the garage.) No key in the van. Well the manager to the Town homes lives right next door. No big deal I will just go over and ask if she can get a key for me and let me in. Apparently it was a very big deal because When the manager's boyfriend came to the door he swung it opened and said, "It's 7:30 in the "dang" morning what the "heck" do you want (Edited for content)?" I paused for a minute. This was NOT the greeting I expected. I said, "I locked myself out of my house and my kids are in there alone." He said, "Oh well that's a different story." He he closed the door and left. I started balling. I went and stood in front of my door and cried. A minute later he came and said something to me that wasn't the apology that I wanted. I ignored him because I didn't want to scream at him. The manager came and started ranting about drunks waking her up at all hours of the night. My first thought was do I look like a drunk? I probably did at that point because my eyes were all red and puffy. She unlocked my door I said thank you and that was the end of that. Except I was still really upset. Who wants to get swore at, at 7:30 in the morning. I just wanted to get my church clothes on and take my family to church. Anyways, I called Kevin and cried to him. He is very upset. I actually told him that I want to move. We will have to see what happens tomorrow when he talks to the lady.
Luckily the kids were okay. Nik was trying to eat Cheltzi's eggs. Not really a big deal I don't think. He doesn't seem to be affected by them. I don't know if there is a specific age that you can give eggs to kids. I'm glad he didn't choke though.
The rest of the day went pretty good. I found the church without any trouble. The moment I saw the church I started crying. I was so happy to see something familiar. And I was still quite emotional from the event that happened earlier. We were about 20 minutes late. When we got to church the sacrament was being passed so we just sat in the foyer. They opened the doors and we went in. There weren't any open seats. So we walked across the back of the chapel to the other Foyer. Yes I felt silly. During sacrament meeting I noticed a guy sitting with his wife and son he looked REALLY familiar. I just kept glancing at him because I just knew who he was. But at the same time thinking no it can't be. After sacrament I took Cheltzi potty before she went to nursery. A lady came up and asked if I needed help I was trying to wash my hands, Cheltzi's hands, and her foot because Nik refluxed while Cheltzi was going potty and nastiness got all over her. The lady took Dominik and I got Cheltzi cleaned up, I took her to nursery, and went to Sunday School. The same guy was there. This time he kind of smiled and nodded. When the role came around I immediately flipped to the back to write my name and since the guy I thought I knew last name started with a Y I looked to see if it was possibly him. And it was. How crazy is that. He went to Bear River and was in my graduating class. We weren't really friends, but it was weird to me that he would happen to be in our new ward.
I loved church and I hope that I get to know the member's of our new ward I will grow to love all of them to. I am so happy I made the decision to go today. I know that Satan was really working on me trying to get me to not go, but I did and I feel that my Heavenly Father has blessed me for that decision.
I know this was a really long post especially for me, but I wanted to share my day with everyone that reads this blog. This day has really helped my testimony grow.

I'm BACK!!!

I have had some access to the internet the past three months, but I haven't really felt like blogging. But I am back. Not too much has really happened in the last three months, but a few are: I finished my phlebotomy class and I passed it. Dominik is growing so big he is now a little over 8 months old. He still doesn't have any teeth. We moved to Colorado. So far it hasn't been to bad, but it's pretty lonely. We went to the Zoo for the first time as a family. Dominik and Cheltzi had never been. The dork that I am forgot my camera so I didn't get any pictures. We went to my family reunion kind of as a good by to my family. It was fun. I did get pics of that so I will post them in the next few days. When I have a little bit more time.
