Mark and his Elbow

On Tuesday Mark decided he was going to go ride his dirt bike with his friend Rob, out at Washington Dam Road. He was about ten min. into his ride when he decided that he was going to jump this jump, well needless to say he didn't quite make the jump. He ended up going to the ER.


He arrived at the ER at about 6:40 PM and had to have some X-Rays done, he knew he had broken something but was not sure how bad it was. Just take a look at this X-ray and you will see just how bad it really really was :(.
Mark, had to have surgery on his elbow at 11:30 PM. While waiting in the waiting room there was not a sole in sight. Lets just say I was a little worried since that is all there was to do. At about 1:00 Am I finally picked up the phone to the surgical room and asked if he was out of surgery yet? They said we have just finished and the Doctor should be up there in a few min. to talk to you. A few min. turned into 15 min. I was relieved when the Doctor came out and told me the surgery went well.

Mark now has a plate in his elbow with several screws. Once I get those X-rays back I will post those pictures. We stayed in the hospital for two days. So thanks for all the visitors it was nice of you to come check up on Mark. Thank you to all the Family who watched our sweet little Taylor.


Mark says he is feeling pretty good except for the road rash he has on his back......

Taylor's Easter Dress

Just wishing everyone a Happy Easter! I know I am a few days early but I have been so busy lately I thought this might be the best time. I just can't believe how grown up my little Taylor is getting. She has a doctors appointment coming up so when we go, I will then let everyone else know how big she has grown to be. We just love having her around, she says to most random things, that keep us laughing.
The other day I was doing something and she came up behind me to help me, so I said, "Back of Barbie!" Taylor's reply was, " I am not a barbie, I am a princess!"

Another thing Taylor told me was after her nap, she came running out to me and told me that she talked with Jesus during her nap time. I said oh, ok, what did He have to say? Taylor told me he was sad and that he wanted her to come home. I told her when she had finished all she had to do on Earth, it would be her time to go. I said well, what makes Jesus happy? She then told me well it makes him happy that I am with my mommy and daddy. How cute is that!!!!

Taylor you make mommy and daddy happy. We love you so very much and are glad you chose us.

Where is my baby?

Where did my baby go? Well, she decided that she would grow up on me. Taylor will be 3 in July. I can't believe how fast the time has gone by. I love her she makes me smile and laugh. Taylor loves to play outside and with her cousin Katelynn. The other day we had to take her to the doctors because her ear was bugging her, while we were there I had them weigh her. At, 2 1/2 years she weighs 25lbs. I am not quite sure about her height, but last time she was 36 inches. She just needs to grow six more inches so she can go on all the rides at DISNEYLAND!
Things that Taylor can do
* Counts to 14
* Counts to 5 in Spanish
* Sings Twinkle, Twinkle little Star, I am a Child of God, Humpty Dumpty, and her favorite song her daddy made up for her.
* she loves to empty out the shampoo bottle in the tub
* she loves to watch SNOW WHITE
* she loves her dopey doll
* she is now loving to go potty on the big potty
* the other day I told her she was driving me crazy, her response was, " I am not crazy!"
* she can sing her abc's
* she loves to jump
She is a pretty good girl, I think I might just have to keep her. I love you Taylor!

My Hubby

I just wanted to tell Mark how much he means to me. He is so grateful because
- He is a great dad
- He goes to work and provides for Taylor and I, so I can stay home
- When I need a break he always volunteers to watch little Taylor
- He is always willing to help me when I am in need
- He is always listening to me and giving me a shoulder to cry on.

For all these wonderful things he does for me I let him do this.........









Thanks for all you do for Taylor and I, we love you so much!
