Calister Grey Whitlock

I hate that I can't figure out how to put theses pictures in order, but i'm sure it's pretty clear what came first, second, so on...! We're so excited to announce that Calister Grey Whitlock entered into this world on 12/2/13, We're assuming he didn't want to miss out on any of the Christmas festivities and so joined us a bit earlier then planned, his planned due date was 12/25/13. He had some respiratory problems and eating problems, so had to stay in the NICU for 10 days, that was a trial itself, plus trying to balance the other 2 kiddos. I have to say we're so blessed though, there were so many other babies in there that had been there alot longer then we were anc had to be. I'm so grateful for modern medicines and technology! Calister weighed in at a whoppin 7lbs 1 ounce and 19 3/4 inches long, pretty good for 3 1/2 weeks early! So far he LOVES sleeping and loves warm baths, but does not like getting out of the bath or the rub down that comes afterward. We're still trying to get things down with 3 kids but I think it will just come with practice! We've been so spoiled by family, friends, neighbors, we couldn't ask for better people in our lifes, how lucky we are!

Short and Sweet!

Just a Catch up, Graham is now 3 and so much fun but so mischevious, he loves treats, and he loves tog o to Grandma and Granpas house, loves to go to the park and ride his bike around the block! We just love him and can't wait to have another boy! Rozlyn is 15 months and her little personality is so silly, she loves to walk and run period! She'll walk circles around and around in the living room, she also LOVES to dance, anytime she hears any kind of music she starts swinging her arms around and sways to the music. We are loving these two sooo much and can't wait to add one more to the mix in December! We love to have outside adventures, we love to take them both to experience new things and see the excitement that comes to there face, we love Sunday drives, especially when they take us to beautiful places like Kolob Resevior, Can't wait for more adventures that this Winter season will bring!

2012 Family Pictures!

 

 

 

We had the opportunity to go take some family pictures! It was so fun and we're so glad we did it! Sammy did such a great job capturing Graham's fun, silly personality and Rozlyn's sweet little smiles and laughs! We sure love our kids and think they are the sweetest, cutest most photogentic kiddos! We couldn't ask for better children! They're so good! Love them with all my heart!

Guess who turned 2!

Graham turned 2 on August 5th, just a week after we had Rozlyn! It was so fun to be able to take him to McDonald's and  get his favorite "fries" in a kids meal and then we went to the park and played and played until we started melting into the wood chips than we went and got some ice-cream! The next day on Sunday we had all the family over for root beet floats and cup cakes Graham got soooo spoiled by all the family and LOVED everything he got! It was so fun to watch him get so into the present opening and everything this year, can't wait until next year "really we can" I don't want them growing up to fast! But Birthday's are always so fun! We love our Graham so much, he has so much personality and is ALWAYS making us laugh! I love his hugs and kisses, his smiles and laughs, I love the way he says please to everything he wants so it makes it almost impossible to say no! I love how he still loves to put his hand down my shirt so he can rub the lace part of my graments "this can get a bit embarrasing"! I love everything about my sweet, tough, happy, playful, boy! He's so fun! Love you Graham!!!

Rozlyn Opal Whitlock

This is what happens when your trying to take of the newborn baby and let your 2 yr. old play outside in the backyard! Tee hee! he such a funny kiddo and LOVES playing in the mud!

We've had a very fun and busy few months! We brought into this world Rozlyn Opal Whitlock on July 30th, what a surprise she was, coming to the world almost 3 weeks early! She still weighted in at a healthy 7lbs 8ouces and 19 inches long! We had her on a Monday afternoon at 4:06 P.M., I started having contractions regularly on Sunday night, but stayed home all through the night keeping track of them and then by 8:00 I told Patrcik he could probably just stay home from work since i figured we would be going in soon, so Patrick called in to work, we got Graham ready for the day and took him over to Grandma Bailey's house, then went and grabbed some breakfast on our way to the Hospital. We arrived at the hospital about 10:00 A.M. and got hooked up to the monitors, I was dilated at almost a 6 and 80% effaced, so they moved me straight up to a delivery room. It was such a easy pregnancy and labor, I feel very blessed to never experience the pain that most women in labor do! They finally told me if I was going to have a epidural i needed to do it soon so i decided to hurry and get one since I am so fearful that when I do get to a 9 or 10 I'll be having lots and lots of pain. So I got one which hurts more than any of labor and delivery does! I keep telling Pat i am not going to get an epidural next time since I have absolutley not pain! now if I can just stick with it next time! We got our sweet girl within a few hours, healthy and happy! She is such a sweet thing and we love her so much, she is such a joy! We couldn't be happier to have our little girl here! We love her to pieces!
