Kindergarten Bound

Emilee is getting ready for Kindergarten. She was really excited. Now I think she might be getting a little bit nervous. I know she is ready. She is already adding and subtracting. She can write her alphabet and she is starting to learn to spell simple words like cat, hat, etc. She knows her address and can write her full name. She is trying to learn to sound out words. Hopefully I can get her to start reading a little bit.

Forrest is repeating everything he hears. He will be 3 years behind Emilee in school. He is getting bigger and bigger everyday. He will probably outgrow Emilee in a year. He is very tall for his age. Sean and I have to constantly remind ourselves that he is only 2 1/2. He is also potty training right now. He likes to wear "big boy" pants. His favorites are Star Wars.

Angelina is 2 months old now. She weighs 10 pounds and is 22" tall. She is growing every day.
I love to hold her and she loves to be held. She wiggles so much. She will be rolling over before I know it.

I love being a mom. It is very challenging, but well worth the struggle. I am so thankful that the Lord has blessed my life with three beautiful loving children and a best friend to share my love and life with. Sean really is my superman. I don't know what I would do without him. He is the back bone of our family. He keeps us strong and all together. Especially when I feel like I am loosing the daily battle of trying to keep my kids happy and my own sanity. He lifts me up when I fall. I love him so much. I thank God for him.

Thanks to all those that keep us in your prayers. We feel your love. And thank you for believing in us. Heavenly Father sends us Angels to watch over us. They are called FRIENDS. Thank you for being there for us.

Flu...Yuck!

The whole week we spent battling the flu. It went through our whole family. Not fun. Thanks to friends we were able to have Blessings and recovered a lot faster. Thanks to all who called and wished us better. Emilee is back at school. Forrest is back to making discoveries around the house. I am still recovering. Trying to catch up on cleaning the house and laundry. No fun. I am glad to be back on my feet.

She's HERE!!!!

Hello baby Angelina Michelle Forbush. Okay Here's the scoop.
My water broke around 8am. I called Sean. I called Ami. I called the doctor.
Dressed the kids. Drove to Ami's. Drove to the doctor.
Yes my water did brake. DUH! 2nd daughter, 2nd time water breaking.
The doctor examined me. You baby is breached. HUH? Her foot is down, head up. Looks like a c-section.
My reaction, "okay, well three's a charm. Let's go."
The nurse wheeled me over to the hospital side (Centennial) and Sean drove the car around.
I was prepped and off to the surgery. Sean was such a sport he stayed by my side and comforted me.
10:23 am Angelina graced us with her presence. She is a little Angel. She weighed in at 6 lbs 12 oz. 18 1/2" long.
While Sean went with Angelina to be cleaned up, the doctors went to work putting me back together. They wheeled me down to recovery where I was able to bond with my new little bundle of joy. The nurses, doctors, anesthesiologist, and staff were great.
I spent Thursday-Sunday at the hospital recovering.
Emilee and Forrest were so excited to see their new baby sister on Thursday.
My father-in-law flew in Friday to help out. I am so grateful for family. I sure needed the extra help. On Sunday we checked out of Centennial. It is kinda funny. The same nurse that checked me out with Forrest also checked Angelina and I out this time too.
We drove passed church as everyone was getting ready to go home (2pm) from our ward. It was kinda weird driving passed church on Sunday without attending it.
When we arrived at home Emilee, Forrest and my Dad were there to great us with enthusiasm.

So far we are taking it day by day. I feel great and I am recovering quickly. Angelina is doing great. We had to go in for a check up for Jaundice but lil' Angelina is doing better and we are good until our next check up. I thank the Lord for the blessing of all of our children. I never knew I could love someone so much. I guess it is just a hint of how much Heavenly Father loves us. We are truly blessed.

Thanks to all those gourmet cooks for the delicious dinners. My family is so grateful for your support. My husband is so funny. "If the food is this good we might have to plan on the next baby soon." I told him to give me a few months. We will have to acquire the yummy recipes.

Thanks to everyone that has offered to help. We appreciate your willingness to serve.
