Happy Birthday Grady!!

So today is Grady's birthday he is turning 28!!! I don't know how excited he is about it but I love birthdays! He couldn't come home for lunch today like he normally does so me and Tay took him lunch at work and we suprised him with a couple of balloons and a Dr. Pepper and some Reese's pieces easter eggs. (I know its not easter yet but it was all I could find in a hurry.) Anyway tonight we are celebrating with his family and having cherry cheesecake and pie! (Grady doesn't like cake very much) And his mom is making us dinner. SWEET!!! And he will get some cool gifts (I hope!) but he doesn't want anything from us because we are better than any gift (maybe Tay is..) So I think maybe tomorrow sometime I will go get him what he wants because he will need it tomorrow night when he goes and plays with the band. Well I just wanted to tell everyone how much I love Grady and how lucky I am to have married him!! He is so good to me and Tay. So Have a Very Happy Birthday!!!

And Happy Birthday Curt!!! (My brother-in-law) Tomorrow!!!!

Just an update on me. I am doing better everyday. I did take my bandages off and I can't wait until I am completey healed. I will go next week to see about how I am recovering. Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers.

Weekend from !@$$

So this past weekend was quite the trip for us. My parents had decided to come down as well as Chris because of the long weekend. Which is always great for me because Tay usually doesn't want anything to to with me when Grandma and Grandpa are here. It just gives me the relief of being a parent that I need. Little did I know that I would end up in surgery Friday night. I found out about two weeks ago that we were expecting. Unfortunatly I ended up with an Ectopic Pregnancy and I had emergency surgery to have it removed along with the tube because of the damage. I had been bleeding and such since we found out we were pregnant. So something was going on and it wasn't good. After many trips to the doctor and many, many ultrasounds they finally discovered the problem only it was too late to do anything about it. Luckily the wonderful doctor that I went to was able to take care of what had happened. For now I am just taking it easy and waiting until I can take the bandages off of my stomach so I can itch!! I only have three small incisions on my stomach which will entail 3 cool scars!! Just kidding! I just wanted to tell anyone who didn't know what has happened. I am doing good and will still be able to have kids!! Just not for a little while. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers for us!

The joys of Potty Training

So I know it has been a while since I have blogged but I haven't been feeling very well and neither has Grady or Taylee. We keep passing the same stupid cold back and forth. It sucks. Anyway among all the craziness of our family we (actually Taylee) decided to start Potty Training!! It has been quite the experience. She isn't trained yet but we are slowly working on it. I don't quite have the patience to do this because she did so good the first day that we started. I guess the excitement has worn off. But like all things we keep working at it. So here are some pics that I took to document the occasion!

I sat her infront of the T.V. most of the afternoon hoping it would inspire here. She did pretty good!

Reading magazines, we also had lots of books.

In her very first Pull-Up!

This looks kinda like a mug shot but she wanted to wear that hat and she wouldn't get off her potty!

Well if there are any tips about this whole training thing I could use it! I feel like I have done everything but I think with her it will only take time. Anyway we hope everyone is doing good and we will hopfully have some more exciting things to talk about later.
