OUR TEMPLE DAY!!!

What An Amazing Day!!

Well, we waited four years for this day to come and it finally happened! We were sealed in the St. George Temple yesterday. I can't believe it really happened! It was so amazing to be there in the Sealing room with our family and friends. It was so great to be there with my amazing husband and to see my little boys dressed all in white. It was truly an experience that I will cherish my entire life. When I looked at each of them it really brought tears to my eyes to think that this is what life is all about, being with those that we love the most and how important it was to be together forever in the life after this. The promises that are made to us when we are sealed are so amazing. Everyone looked so beautiful dressed all in white, I love you all so much. I will also alway cherish having my Grandpa Fotheringham there with us. He looked so happy. Thank you Dad and Jenny and girls for traveling here to be with us and for all that you did for us, I love you so much. (Thank you for the picture of the temple, love it!) A Big thanks to Zacs entire family! We love you all so much and it was great to have so many there to support us. I have told Zac several times how much I love his family and I truly mean it with all my heart. What great people all of you are, I look up to you in every way. It was great to have our former Bishop and wife there as well as our new Bishop. They are such great people. Our Sealer and his wife taught the Temple Prep Class, they are such wonderfull people. I love them so much. Thank you Norm and lisa for coming, we love you guys! Thanks for being such good friends of ours. Also, Mom thank you so much for the beautiful picture of Jesus, I love it and I love you! I hope I didn't miss anyone. Thank you so much everyone! I will always remember what a wonderful day that was! Love you all, Kamill and family (I will be posting family pictures later)

Seventeen Weeks!!!

This is my adorable sister KRISTY! Isn't she just the cutest little pregnant girl ever! Makes me want to be pregnant too! (Not happening haha, not for awhile anyways.) Kristy says that she hasn't felt any movement yet that she could tell. The baby is now 5 inches head to rump, size of Easton's shoe, haha, and weighs approx 5 oz. We will keep you all posted on the growth and size. She will be finding out what the sex is September 16th. Can't wait to find out!

okay, okay, I am really getting excited this time

So we have my wonderful sister (Kristy) living here with us and she has helped me to get excited about Couponsense again (Thanks Kristy). I tried it once but never really got the hang of it and never could figure it out (not smart enough I guess) Everyone was always talking about how much money they were saving and how they were always getting free stuff. Not me, I never could find those deals.
My cousin Jen is really awsome (thank you Jen) because she has gone out of her way to teach us how to get our coupons organized so we can get the good deals. It all comes down to buying things when they are on sale with a coupon so you get a great deal. So Kristy and I went to Smiths on our first free stuff shopping adventure. Cereal was on sale for 4 for 4 and we had 8 dollar off coupons. We got 8 bags of Ceral for free!!!! When it came down to it we saved 30 dollars on Cereal I couldn't believe it! We clapped and danced all the way out to the car! Now I am excited.
So, today, I met Jen at walmart (Thank you so much Jen) to buy the "all you" magazine that has coupons in it. The deal was to buy 15 Kraft products and get free stuff. So Koolaid is a Kraft item, cool, so we bought 15 Koolaids(18cents each) and got hotdogs, crystal light, wheat thins, cheese and ranch dressing for free! Or we could buy 15 mac and cheese for 50 cents and get the free stuff as well. I am so excited about it! From now on I am shopping the deals!

My one year old!

Yummy!! "Pake" as Easton calls it!
I was going over the pics again that I took at the Birthday party and I just want to add one more pic. Easton had just as much fun digging into the cake as Jaxon. I didn't get any pictures but Easton was also feeding the cake to Jaxon, it was so cute!

We had a great turn out for these two little boys birthday party! Thanks for all those that came and thank you especially to those that traveled to be here with us. Thank you Meghan for hosting it at your house, it turned out perfect!

I can't believe it was a year that these two little boys were born. Today I sat and reminisced on that special day that happened a year ago. How fun to have two little cousins born 23 minutes apart. For those that don't know the story here it goes..... I had a scheduled Cesarean. The night before Meghan and I laughed about how fun it would be if she went into labor that night and how convenient it would be for the family to only have to come down once but her due date wasn't for I'm guessing 4 weeks or so, so we really didn't think it would happen especially not on the same day. The morning of my Cesarean the hospital called me at 6am and told me that they would have to postpone my Cesarean because they didn't have any beds but it would happen sometime that day. Then we found out that Meghan went into labor and was admitted in the night. ah, she's the one that took my bed! haha , Zac and I really laughed about that and teased her about it. So, the hospital gave me a call at 8am and said to come on in (not a long wait at all, thank goodness). On my way to the surgical room I stopped by to say hello to Meghan.

As I was leaving her room, Meghan's Dr. walked in and was going to have her push... so I rushed off to the OR. It turned into a race! My doctors in the OR really thought it was fun trying to hurry and get our baby here first. Boston was born 20 minutes earlier than Jaxon. Boston was born at 8:55 and Jaxon was born at 9:15 That is so amazing to be that close in age. wow

We both had beautiful healthy baby boys that will hopefully be close cousins their entire lives. Another memory that I have that was really quite funny to me was...' I was in the middle of getting cut open, I looked behind me and there stood my mom... I waved at her then thought to myself "how did you get in here?" She was bound and determined to get into the OR to see Jaxon come into this world. She sneaked into the OR and saw baby Jaxon's birth. She said that the doors were open so she just came in. I was so glad that she was able to be there too.

7 pounds 18 1/2 inches long

absolutely beautiful and perfect in every way! I couldn't take my eyes off him

Boston and Meghan. Boston was early and his lungs were not developed all the way so he spent sometime in the NICU. I love this picture. He is so adorable. You would never know now that he spent time in the NICU. He is such a healthy happy chunky little boy!
