::CaRtEr ChRoNiClEs::

I decided to do something for Carter. He is one of the funniest kids I know!! He runs around the house with a paper towel roll & screams at the top of his lungs....your attention please...over & over. It's much funnier than it sounds on here...he has a distinct voice & way of standing. If only I could video it for you, you would probably laugh as hard as I do every day.

::My Baby Is ONE::

This last year has gone by so fast. I can't believe my baby is 1. I still remember that night like it was yesterday! Getting out of the tub...still feeling like I wasn't dry enough & then it clicked....um thats my water breaking... panicking & calling my sister to come stay with Carter. We got to the hospital, slowly it felt like. I started having super close contractions & intense horrible pain. It was WAY worse then Carter's birth. I got hooked up to the monitors & everything was great. The epidural came & I felt fabulous. Nurse's kept comin, then the doctor came in, watched the monitor & decided to break the news that I had to get an emergency C-Section. I was so scared, his heart rate kept dropping with every contraction. I was wheeled into surgery & they started...eventually I found out Trev's cousin was in on it. Uh awkward...slightly embarrassing, though nothing I could really do. (Sorry Case!!) So i don't remember much from the surgery, all I remember is Trev tellin me that he is perfect & everything went good. I don't wish a C-Section on my worst enemy. Horrible!

But this sweetheart came out of it....I guess you get over the pain!

 

::I'm Back::

I am... looking forward to summer more & more everyday.

I keep...thinking my new house will be organized by itself, sadly I know that's not going to happen.

I wish I could... be a better cook. I feel bad feeding my family pizza & mac & cheese so much.

I love... watching my boys play together. Wyatt loves Carter so much & I love the bond forming between them.

I dance... around with my boys & Carter thinks I'm hilarious.

 

I think... Carter is going to be my biggest handful through his teenage years.

I really... need to take losing weight more seriously.

I need to... start getting ready more often. I don't know what it is after having kids that makes you lose a little self worth but it blows.

I should... go to bed now that both boys are finally sleeping. We haven't gotten much sleep in like 4 days due to Wyatt's nasty 101+ fevers.

I can... still stand on the tips of my toes without pain (like Rose in Titanic).

I like... working at a job & I kinda miss getting out of the house everyday, but I wouldn't change being home with my boys for anything. I make... to much drama out of small things said to me sometimes.

I always... have a Mt. Dew in the morning, if I don't I can't function the rest of the day.

I love... my thoughtful, amazing, hot, hard-working husband.

:: 2012's Most Memorable::

JANUARY

After the mine shut down in Emery we moved back in with mom & dad. We jumped from job to job, moved into a house & submitted half a million resumes (ok probably not that much, but ya know). We finally received a job offer to Kiewit! Trev has been there the whole year & continues to enjoy the job.                                                                                    FEBRUARY

Wyatt Lee Mecham came into our family! He was a terrible pregnancy from 32 weeks up until he was taken via emergency C-Section. He is now an amazing & happy baby!!                  

MARCH

My aunt that lives in Utah got us all tickets to Disney on Ice! It was Toy Story 3 & my boys were in 7th heaven. I was only a month out of having an insanely painful C-Section but it actually wasn't to bad to drive to SLC & sit!!
We also had Grandpa Phil bless Wyatt, It was an amazing experience & I am so glad that they could drive down to bless him.                                                                

APRIL

Easter was a blast. Aunt Lacie came over & helped us color eggs! We did a hunt that Grandpa Corey set up at his house & went to one at the fairgrounds. We had a lot of fun!                                              

MAY

I entered Wyatt into a baby contest with Bryana Likes Photography. He won. We had like 116 votes or somethin. So fun! This was our family , it seems nice but don't let it fool you Carter ran around screaming the whole time & Wyatt cried to. They were naughty. But Bryana is amazing & got some really good ones of the boys!
We also got a new puppy!! He is a rescue dog & my tag-a-long! He was not treated very well & left to survive in the mountains alone. The kids love him & he is such a snuggly dog.
May was a busy month. Kam also graduated from Preschool! He is such a smart little boy & I can not believe he is going to Kindergarten next year.                

JUNE

Fathers Day!! Trevor is such an amazing dad to these boys! He provides for all of us & he makes sure he sacrifices for us. He is a hardworking amazing loving & kinda cute ;) man & I love him so much!

  JULY

We went to Relay For Life in Emery County. We go every year, this year was our first without Grandma. Last year the family received the banner in the picture. Gosh I could go on about how much I miss that woman & how strong, amazing, selfless she was but that would take forever!                                                      August

We went to the Hogle Zoo! We met my aunt & Grandpa from Ferron. It was so fun with the kids. They were very hot & very tired by the end!                      

September

Kasleigh Nicole Thomas finally arrived!! A week late, but she made it! She is a puker but we love her anyways!!                    

October

Happy Halloween! We went to the carnival at the elementary. Kasleigh was a lady bug, Wyatt a moose, & Carter a dirtbike rider! Carter didn't want to trick or treat so we went to 5 houses & called it quits. We just handed out candy at my mom & dads & he liked that better!

  November

Carter turned 3! I can't believe i have a 3 yr old. He is my best friend. Major perk of being a stay at home mommy! He is hilarious & beginning to turn into a sneaky, sassy boy. I love him so much!
Our family from Utah came up for Thanksgiving. We ate at the lunch room at the H.S. so nice & less crowded! We also got to play basketball! It was so fun!!

  December

Kam turned 5! Holy cow! I can still remember the first time we got to take him over night! I love that kid. He is such a huge help with the younger boys!!
Christmas party with Santa!!
Christmas morning. We have been through so much this year!! Good times & bad, job layoff threats, & drama but we are a family & we always will be!!

Happy New Year! &hearts The Mecham Family
