4 Years Ago

Four years ago today was Saturday January 22 and Michigan was having a huge snow storm. I went to the doctors the tuesday before and he said that i would have our son by the end of the weekend, so we stayed between my mom's and Nathan's mom's house to be closer to the hospital. By the time saturday came I just wanted to go home in my own bed and just be in my own home and not at my mom's or my mother in law's. So around this time (that this blog will be posted) I wanted to go home because I was showing no signs of labor. But everyone kept saying just stay here the doctor said you will have this baby by the end of the weekend. While I was at my mom's wanting to go home my husband was out with my brother, sister, and their friends having fun in the snow. Finally they came home at 1:00am michigan time and I finally got my way, my husband took me home. Now what normally would take us about twenty minutes to get home took us a hour, because of the snow storm and all Nate could say is: If we get all the way home and you go into labor i am going to be mad. I just kept saying its not going to happen tonight. Well we got home at 2am and about an hour later I started to get back pain, so I soaked in the shower for about a half an hour, and during this time I started to feel sick to my stomach. So I woke Nate out of deep sleep and told him that we have to go to the hospital because I think that I am in labor, he was not very happy. So we dropped our dog, (angel) off at his mom's house and got to the hospital at 515am.. and I will finish the rest tomorrow and little man's bday

Bath Time

Wednesday was the first time I felt comfortable putting Izzy in the bathtub with out using her bath holder thing. She was nothing like her brother, the first time we put nathan in the bath tub, he was splashing water everywhere and didnt want to get out. Izzy on the other hand, just sat there and didnt move one inch.
Then today I made pasta and gave her some and she had a field day with it. She had it from head to toe. So of course I had to give her another bath and because she made a mess in her diaper early in the morning she had to take a shower at 630am, so she could of got away with having a bath tonight but again it was from head to toe. So anyways I put her in the bathtub but this time I added bubbles to it and MAN did she have a field day. She was crawling in the bathtub, blowing bubbles in the water and just having plain old fun.
It's so amazing how one minute they are helpless and the next minute they are slowly becoming independent.

Nathan Xavier

Nathan had his first soccer game yesterday and it was so exciting to see him run around and having fun. He was the first child to make a goal for the season, even though they dont really keep score at this age. This is all he wants to do now. He will start Karate when soccer is over for the season. I just cant believe that my little boy is already old enough to be playing sports, its crazy, scary, sad, and exciting all in one.

Family News

Well where do I start? It has been a very busy month. The kids and I left Arizona on December 14th for the holidays in Michigan. Nathan flew in on the 24th of December. We were all suppose to leave together on january 2 but my step father in law had an unexpected illness and had to have a triple bypass yesterday, and is doing well, so i stayed behind with the kids to be with my mother in law and help her out until January 8th. Our xmas and new years was very nice. We got to spend it with our family and friends. The kids and I are ready to go home we miss our friends and dogs. Nathan starts soccer on saturday, so that will be fun.
Izabella has been getting up on her knees for awhile but today she actually started to crawl, I am so excited but wish it wouldnt had happened until we were home in arizona so that her daddy could see it. Again where does the time go???

I can't believe it's already been 4 months

On the 26th of october Izabella turned 4 months old and I cant believe it. She is laughing out loud more and more every day. She is very very tickelish in her inner thighs and under her arms. She has discovered her feet and she loves to eat them. She can roll from her stomach to her back, and already got her first ouch from rolling off the couch at Gmama's house. Izabella is playing more and more with her toys. She is trying to sit up.

As many of you know we had trouble getting pregnant with izabella and then during the pregnancy and with all the research we have done we started eating more healthy and doing more natural things. For insistance the doctors told me I would miscarry again (while I was pregnant with Izzy) if i didnt take asprin and heprin(both are blood thinners), because of my blood clot disorder that I had. I didnt take these things, I started to eat more fruits and veggies and taking all natural stuff called JUICEPLUS, a few months of doing this they retook the blood work and there was no sign of every having a blood clot disorder. So needless to say the doctors were wrong. We have tried to continue to eat this way and we also have the kids on juiceplus, nathan hasnt had any ear infection or really gotten sick (except for minor colds) since we have put him on juicepluse and changed his milk to rice milk. Izzy is not going to get any shots and we have stopped getting nathan vaccinated to and in the process tring to find an all natural peditrician. So now that it is already time for Izzy to start eating certain foods I have decided to make her food, for one it is better for her, for two it is cheaper than buying baby food and for three it is easy. So what i have made so far is pears, sqaush, applesauce, greenbeans and bananas. Also i made teething biscuits. Everything came out good except for the teething biscuits i need more practice on those, I couldnt get the dough right, but hay little nathan liked them so maybe izzy will to. She liked everything but the greenbeans and sqaush. If i mix the greenbeans into her cereal she is okay with it. I will have to try the samething with the squash. I got all my reciepes from http://www.wholesomebabyfood.com. They have awsome meal ideas especially for older kids and everything seems easy and simple.

Now an update on nathan (xavier). He is doing good for the most part, has gotten into a little bit of trouble here and there at school and some of the things he shouldnt have gotten in trouble for, like saying "shake your booty" but oh well its his teachers rules. So we are tring to work with him on using nice touches and not saying "shake your booty" in school. He really enjoyed being in michigan and cant wait to go back and play with uncle jeffrey and cory. He also wants to see his aunt amy again. He cant wait to make chocolate chip cookies with Brittney. He really liked going out with his aunt kikki just by himself and talks about it a lot, so aunt kikki you will have to do that again with him.

Now as for Nate and I we are doing good, we do need some alone time so maybe one of the grandma's can watch the children when we come home in december so we can go out just the two of us. Nate has been very busy working, which is good. He had a higher up guy call him the one day to tell him that he is doing a great job, so that made him feel good. I am back in school and it is going good so far, kind of hard getting back into the grove of things especially with having children. But having a supportive husband and a supportive friend (Tamara) down here with me I know I can get through it and I will get my degree in two years or so. My gold canyon business is picking up, which is nice. But anyways its getting late so i need to get off. Cant wait to see everyone again in december.

the Trombleys

Wow I can't believe it

I cant believe our daughter will be 5 weeks old tomorrow.. It seems like I just had her the other day.. She is starting to smile when you rub her checks or do patty cake with her...She is starting to stay up longer during the day and sleep more at night.. She ways 8 pounds 8 ounces and is 20 inches long..Her eyes are still deep blue (praying that they will stay like that).. Little nathan seems to be doing a little better with her. Before I know it both of my babies will be in school, why does the time fly by soooo quickly once you hit 21 and then really quick when you have your own babies????

It's Been A Hard Week

It was nice having my mother in law in town but it was hard at the same time.. It just made me depressed because it reminded me how nice it is to have family around to help out when there is a new little one. It was also hard this week because my little sis's baby shower was on sunday and i wasnt there to help plan it or see it.. I am very very home sick right now and I wish someone would get the courage to fly down for a few days because I need her here, so I can get rid of this homesick feeling.. Usually my baby sister is down here around the time I start to get home sick but because she is due next month she cant fly. Well hopefully my brother keeps his promise and will be out here soon...

I love arizona and would never move back to michigan, but just having a new baby and a new niece and then one on the way, I wish we lived in michigan right now and I know that its the post partum talking because i really dont wish to move back.. Well gotta go Izzy sounds like she getting hungary...
