Wylder G Bollinger

Well most of you probably have heard but Wylder G Bollinger was born Wednesday October 13 at 11:06a.m. he was 7lbs 1oz and 19inches long. I am doing very good, I feel great everything went very smoothly with the C section, If I could only say more for Wylder he is doing ok but he is in the NICU we first found out he had acid reflux so he wasn't keeping any food down, and now he is doing better but he wont eat now. He is getting a little bit better everyday slowly but surely we hope to be able to bring him home soon.

Seven Months Down

Well seven months down only a few to go. Besides the heat everything has been pretty good and luckily it really hasn't gotten that hot. Well as I said I am now 29 weeks prego and still super tired but I don't think that is going to change anytime soon. I went to the doctor last week and had a ultra sound everything was looking good the baby was 2lbs 13oz so a little bigger than he is supposed to be but its ok. The doctor asked when I delivered Berrik and I told him he was 23 days early so the doctor said so we will just plan on delivering you at 37 weeks, that is exciting and scary at the same time cause we just aren't ready yet. THAT'S ONLY 8 WEEKS AWAY. But besides that excitement I have to now start going in for non stress tests every 2 weeks.
So I have started working on a rag quilt for this new little one I am really hoping it works out I have only made one other rag quilt and it was big and didn't turn out very square so I'm hoping this one works better. I found super cute material at porters its brown with green and orange dinosaurs, then just green polka dot and orange polka dot they look really cute all together. I got the squares cut out and didn't have enough of the brown so after trips to rexburg hopefully I can get this quilt finished. I will post pictures when I am done.

HOLY COW WHERE DO I BEGIN

So sorry it has taken me so long to update the blog but here I go.
JANUARY
Ben started his new job at the Chester Dam he is really enjoying it, there are a lot of new thing that he is getting to do that are very interesting to him. He is working a ton, he never stops and I guess thats not a bad thing I'm glad I married such a hard worker.
FEBRUARY
Well time flies when your having fun. This month we celebrated Berriks 2nd birthday, it was pretty wild but fun had the whole family over for diner, cake and ice cream. We have to have the parties at on e of the grandmas houses cause are house is to small for everyone to come, so this year we did it at Grandma Rhodes house it was a ton of fun. Berrik has been all about Toy Story so he got a buzz and woody and some cars from Cars and he loved them.
MARCH
This is kind of hard trying to remember what happened these months but I'm trying my hardest. Well this month we found out we were having another baby CRAZY, but we are very excited. We decided to keep this one quiet for awhile so we didn't tell family til Easter.
APRIL
April was good we still had a lot of snow but what do ya do. this is the month we decided to the the family we were having a baby, its alot harder to keep thing quite when you have another kid running around cause you have to find a babysitter for every doctor appointment, and coming up with excuses every time I went to Rexburg was getting hard. So we decided to tell everyone on Easter Sunday we had died Easter eggs and made one for each member of the family and had a 1/2 pink and 1/2 blue egg with a Question mark on it and sent pictures to are parents to tell them the news.
MAY
Happy Mothers Day. May was pretty busy to we had a good mothers day I was very excited I got a porch swing it is so nice to just go and sit outside and relax. Mothers day is always hard cause even though I am a mom it seem I really don't get to celebrate a whole lot cause we are always running to see our moms and let them enjoy there day, but its always good.It was this month that Berrik decided he didn't want to sleep in his bed anymore he wants to sleep with us NOT FUN.
JUNE
Holy cow it like the months just get crazier and crazier. June is always a fun hard month Ben and I both celebrate are birthdays this month and there is fathers day. But to start off with Bens birthday the 14th we found out we are having another baby boy happy birthday dad. We were excited and bummed at the same time we really wanted a girl but are vary happy to have a new baby boy in our lives, and this makes it easier on us we already have everything we need for a boy. Then my Birthday was the 19th it was very nice Ben took me out on a date nice dinner and a movie, and my mom took Berrik so that we could get a full night sleep. Happy Fathers Day. We had a good day had BBQ with family and just spent time together, and Ben didn't get his fathers day gift til about a week ago which was a new recliner better late than nothing.
JULY
Well at least its getting warmer outside. July has been fun and busy also we had a fun 4th of july a full fun packed weekend. We went to the parade the the 3rd and had a BBQ at our house with family and friends, then a whole lot of fireworks. This is Bens favorite holiday cause he gets to blow stuff up.The 4th we went for a four wheeler ride then had another BBQ with Bens family. then the 5th we floated the river and tried to go fishing but the wind was blowing so hard Ben pretty much had to row the boat the whole time, then we went to Toy Story 3 it was fun but it was Berriks first time to go to the Theater so he didn't sit still at all but fun.
As I said before Berrik has decided he doesn't want to sleep in his bed anymore so we have been in search for a new bed for him, he is still in his crib that turns in to a bed so it can't be very comfy. So we figure since were having another boy we are trying to find bunk beds its been quite a challenge. Well I am 25 week prego now and definitely feeling huge but I guess I'm on the down hill slide now. It has been very hard this pregnacy cause i have been sick a lot more this time and Ben has been working 60 to 70 hour weeks, so the money is good but the homelife is hard.

The New Year

I can't believe it is already almost the end of January. Life has been good, Ben has started his new job and liking it, its hard but good. He is already sick of shoveling snow and winter is far from over. Then there is are little worl wind Berrik that never stops moving, I can't beleive he is going to be two next month it has gone so fast. Hopefully now maybe that he is growing up he'll slow down alittle bit. I am going back to work just a couple days a week, I'm not very excited but its good to have money.
