Happy Halloween!

This was Jorgen’s First Halloween!  She had a bit of a cold, but still enjoyed the day!

11.4.11 002

Her cute Halloween onsie and bow!

11.4.11 004

11.4.11 007

11.4.11 008

She got some fun little items for Halloween since it was her first one!

11.4.11 009

She was super excited.

11.4.11 015

11.4.11 017

I wanted to get a few more pictures, but she didn’t like the idea.

11.4.11 018

Doesn’t she make a cute little ladybug?

11.4.11 020

11.4.11 025

This was the first of three stops, Colter’s grandparents.  I took three pictures, and grandma’s eyes are shut in all of them.

11.4.11 028

We then stopped at Dana and Ann’s.

11.4.11 029

Our last stop was to see Grandma and Grandpa!  They were at a family party, and we didn’t stay because Jor wasn’t feeling very good.  Jorgen didn’t know why there were so many flashing lights and crazy people!

It was so fun getting her dressed up in her costume.  She is such a joy in our home!!

Week in Idaho!

After we went to my Grandma’s Birthday Party, Jorgen and I stayed for the following week.  This is what we did:

10-29 199

Jor slept in the bouncer!

10-29 202

We made my Grandma do the Virtual Barbershop on the iPod.

10-29 204

10-29 205

10-29 206

My mom thought she was smart by letting the balloon float to the ceiling…while the fan was on!!  It got wound up tight!  Colter got to untangle the mess.

10-29 209

10-29 210

I got out of the shower to find my mom and Jorgen reading a book.  I love how Jorgen’s hand is on my moms!

10-29 213

Hanging with Grandpa!  She loves him!

10-29 215

Shopping at Fred Meyer’s for the first time!  Remember…My mom is a VIP there!

10-29 216

10-29 217

10-29 218

10-29 219

And then off to Target!

10-29 221

And then the Mall!  This is the funniest story!  I used the restroom at Barnes and Noble, and came out to find my mom making quite the scene with Jorgen!  She was sitting at the kids table playing Patty Cake (quite loudly), and Jorgen was cracking up!  My mom could hardly contain herself.  My mom had a small crowd of people watching…

10-29 222

10-29 223

10-29 224

10-29 225

Tossing it in the oven!

Then we went to see BJ and my dad at the Feedlot!  My dad drove us around the cows, but I forgot the camera in the office!

10-29 226

10-29 227

10-29 228

My parents and BJ spend a lot of time out here!  They work so hard!

10-29 229

10-29 230

Then we stopped at the cemetery where my Grandpa and Bruce are.

10-29 231

And also my Great Grandparents.

10-29 233

Then…wow we made a lot of stops!

We went on a tour of the NEW NICU!  Yay!  I love these people!

10-29 236

Kat…she was the nurse that let me hold Jorgen for the first time!

10-29 237

Abbie and Val.  Abbie is the NP, and LOVED Jorgen.  Abbie calmed me down on numerous occasions.  And Val is one of our favorite nurses!

10-29 239

Brandy and Carolyn.  We all know I LOVE Brandy…and Brandy LOVES Jorgen!  Carolyn is another nurse that we loved!!  She is so smart and caring…she did all the eye exams on Jorgen while she was there.  I have even called Carolyn since we have been home with questions.  Can I just say the new NICU is amazing?!

10-29 242

This is where I spent some time…this was my first room until they rushed me to the other side to be closer to the nurses due to the construction.

10-29 243

These are the doors we were running in (ok…I was on a bed that was rolling in on two wheels cause we were in such a hurry) for Delivery.

10-29 244

This is Room 122.  Lots of memories in this room.  This is the room I stayed in (the very first patient after Construction) when my water broke.  And then this is the room I was in when I went into Labor, and stayed for a few days.  This is also the room where we got to hold and kiss our sweet lil Traven.  Lots of memories.  It was being cleaned, so we couldn’t go in…but I am glad the door was at least open for the picture.

10-29 246

Jor and I at Labor and Delivery!

That night Jorgen got really sick!  She slept in this swing so she could breathe.  Poor girl!

10-29 247

Takin a bath in the sink!

10-29 248

Cuddle time with Grandma!

10-29 253

10-29 254

I am so thankful I had the opportunity to stay a few days with my family!  I love them!!

10-29 152

Jorgen thought she needed a nap!

10-29 153

My uncle and his family put on a little musical number for us!

10-29 154

During the musical number, they handed out these bottles for us to blow in to make sounds…but my dad thought it looked better to drink it!  Haha!

Koydon & Jorgen

We were trying to get a picture of all three kids:

10-29 173

Koydon just wanted Jorgen’s bow, and Trycen didn’t want to sit there.

10-29 174

This was about as good as it got!

10-29 178

Aren’t they cute cousins??

10-29 180

10-29 181
