Flight to Michigan

Today the kids and I finally got to Michigan after a 2 hour delay for some reason. So that ment our 2.5 hour layover went to just enough time to get on the people mover to get to the next gate and go to the bathroom. We were suppose to leave june 29th at 1130pm and didnt leave until close to 2am on june 30th. I have been up since yesterday at 5am when we arrived in Flint.
This was the worst flight I have ever had with the kids. Nathan lost one of our carry-ons, but it was found so that is a good thing, just in time before they took it to the shredder, yup I said the shredder. Now way would a terriost leave their info on the suitcase if they were going to do something, also he left it at the gate of our connected flight which means it already went through security.
The kids did good, it was me that was tired, irritated and hungry. When we got off the plane and my mom and aunt had the kids I let the tears come out that I was holding in.

Little Princess is 2 yrs old today

June 26, 2008 was a Thursday. We got to the hospital on Wednesday at 10am and they were going to send me home because my cervix was not progressing, but I refused and told them to call my doctor because I am done coming here 1-2x a week to be sent home and we are in the safe zone so need to stop the contractions. My doctor admitted me and was suppose to induce me at 4pm, then it got changed to 11pm and finally they started the Pitocin 5am Thursday morning and broke my water at 530pm. Started to push at 6pm and Izabella Nicole Trombley entered into this world weighing 7lbs. 1.8ounces, 18"inches long at 620pm.
Nathan is the one that delivered her with my doctor standing next to him to assist him if need be, but Nathan did it all on his own. He pulled her out and cut the umbilical cord, and put her in my arms.
Two years later Izabella spent her 2 yr birthday in the morning with her daddy at Build A Bear, which daddy said all she cared about was the clothes and shoes there and she was trying to put them on herself.
Together they built a Princess Kitty, gave it 2 hearts and it sings Happy Birthday to her. As I am writing this she is napping with her new kitty that she built with her daddy and even though daddy cant see it, I can and I believe she enjoyed this morning with her daddy, because if she didn't she wouldn't had picked at the kitty that she wanted and she wouldn't be sleeping with it right now.
We ended Izabella's 2 Birthday with our Arizona family at NYPD, where we had pizza and the kids had ice cream sundaes.

Izabella's first hair cut/2yrs ago continue

Today I took Izabella to get her first haircut. I wanted to cry as Carrie was doing it because it was making her look like a big girl and not a baby anymore. Carrie did such an awsome job and I love the new cut, but I dont like that my baby girl is growing up so quickly. Just to think two years ago today was June 25th, the day I ended up in the hospital for the last time. My doctor finally decided to keep me and induce because I was having contractions and they were strong but I wasnt dialating but when the nurse said that they were going to send me home, I refused and told her I am done and I am not going home until I have this baby, so she called my doctor and he admitted me. I was suppose to get induced at 4pm and then it got to move to 11pm and finally I got induced on the 26th of june at 5am. The doctor was trying to see if my my cervics would dialate on its own but nope.
Let me tell you if something ever happened where the baby machine started to work again on its own I will NEVER EVER get induced again, it was worse than going into labor on my own.
But back to the hair cut experience. Amazingly Izabella did great and sat still while Carrie was cutting her hair.

Two years ago from yesterday

As many of you know, I started to go into premature labor with Izabella at 28 weeks and was in and out of the hospital from 28 weeks to 38weeks. I was in the hospital at least once to twice a week until I had her at 38weeks.
Well Two weeks ago from yesterday I hit 38weeks and ended up in the hospital with contractions. This contractions where strong but I wasn't dilating, so after being there for hours walking around the hospital to try to get the process going, they sent me home.
Today 2yrs ago I had a doctors appointment with my OB/gyn and he asked how I was feeling. My reply was. I AM DONE, cant you just induce me now that I'm 38weeks. His reply was no unless there is something wrong and just as he said that the nurse come in and said that I had protein in my urine. So my doctor said well this is a call to be induced. But first we have to do a 24hour catch. So we went home and started the 24hour catch and the rest of the story will continue tomorrow.

Outting with the kids

There arent many days that the kids are nice to each other and actually listen. But today I had such a wonderful day with both of the kids. There were no fighting, which is unusual but nice.
We started our morning with breakfest then went to the gym where we met our friends. After us moms were done working out, we went out to lunch to Chili's, which again all of the kids were amazing. We then decided to take all of the kids to the Surprise pool to go swimming.
While we were at the pool Nathan decided to sneak(well mommy knew about it)on the waterslide. He did good for not having a lifejacket.
It isnt very deep and he can doggy paddle, he was just about an inch two short, so that is why he had to sneak on it.
At the end of the day, all the kids were tired and slept very well.
Amber(a really good friend of ours) watched Xavier and Izabella, so that Nathan and I could have a date night, which was a very well needed date night. I was able to get my Husband to go see Letters to Juliet. It was a good movie and even though he wont admit it I think he liked it to, because there where a few times that I heard him laugh.
This was the best day I have had in a very Long time.

One on One Time

Yesterday Nathan and Xavier left to go camping. This was Xavier's first camping trip. He was sooo excited to go camping with just him and his daddy. They went fishing and camping in the lake of the Foothills. They left Saturday and was suppose to return sometime today in the late afternoon. Well that changed after Nathan seen a big rattlesnake that had slithered by him (about 10ft away). He decided after that to pack up and go home.
Izabella and I enjoyed our one on one time. We went to DQ and to the park. Then we came home and camped out on the couch watching Grey's Anatomy( Im sure this wasnt what Izzy wanted to watch but it was her bed time, so mommy got to pick).
After the boys got home we decided to go to Subway and get their $5 footlongs and go have a dinner picnic up at the Surprise park, where the kids could play and fish.
All in all this was a very nice weekend and I believe both kids enjoyed having the one on one with each of us.

Caramel Apple Dip

Okay so Nathan and I dont give our kids much treats with sugar or caffine in it, unless it is for a special occasion. Well lately little man has been VERY VERY HYPER and NOT LISTENING and we were like whats going on? So this morning Izabella comes out of Xavier's room with the lid to the caramel apple dip, so I walked into his room asked him what this was and where the bottom of it was. His reply: Its up in my closet and the doggie did it. My response: So the doggie went into the fridge pulled out the container, went into your room and put it on the top shelf of your closet? Xavier's response: Yes. I had to walk out of his room and call Nathan because I wanted to laugh because he said it as if he did really happened. Man kids what to do with them?

Sleepless nights.

For the past month or so, we have not gotten any sleep and it feels like we have a newborn all over again. She is waking up in the middle of the night and early early morning. At first we thought it is because the sun wakes up here early, but nope, its her teeth coming in. Man she is nothing like Xavier was when he was cutting teeth. During the day the teething tablets work but at night she needs something stronger.
It wasnt until today when I found out that NOT all tyenol and motrin were recalled and that it was just name brand ones, so lets just say mommy is going to go buy some today and dope the little princess up tonight with motrin, so hopefully we can all get some sleep tonight.
