My Loving Husband

WOW!! Do I have a great husband or what. On Monday, August 25 I had to take Drake to Ms.Cindy's house for the first time(daycare). It was hard to go into work that day after leaving my baby with someone else to take care of him. I managed NOT to cry...(go me)..I was going about my day at work. When I got back from lunch, I was helping a patient and I heard the door open, went up to the front and there was 2 guys standing there with some roses. I said ooooo, who is getting flowers? The one guy said to me.."we have a delivery for Morgan Hardman". I thought what the heck who sent me flowers? My first thought and don't ask me why I thought this, but I thought well maybe they are from my boss...he knew I was having a hard time...but then I said to myself...why the heck would he send them to me...so I took the flowers from the guys and went for the card...starting reading, put the card down (starting to cry), my patient that I was helping in the back was waiting for me....I thought well I can't read this now I will cry..go back and help that guy and come back....So I did...
Needless to say..I was doing great about NOT crying..until my hubby decided to send me flowers and tell me how much he and drake love me..So yes I did cry...and all the ladies at work were jealous...haha ladies I love ya...Skyler, Thank you for being the BEST HUSBAND IN THE WORLD....I LOVE YOU!!!

ME and MY SEXY HUBBY
I LOVE YOU SKYLER!!!

~5 months of Joy~

I know I'm a little late at posting that Drake is 5 months..but I thought it would be fun to just show how much our little guy has grown in the past 5 months..I can't believe how big he is getting..I love you Drake!!

*Growing so fast*

Drake is now 5 months, and getting so big..His first tooth broke though yesterday,it's a sharp little bugger. Come Monday he will start going to Ms.Cindy's house on Mondays and Thursdays. I hope it's not going to be to hard for me to take him there, but Cindy assured me that it's ok to cry.....It has been such a blessing finding a babysitter for him...many prayers I tell ya, temple visits...I mean you don't just want to leave your children with just anyone these days...On Wednesday,Sky and I with Drake headed to Cindy's house to meet her. What a nice lady, cute home and the other kids are so cute there to...There will only be one little girl there with about 5 or 6 boys...poor little sarah.
I just wanted to take a little time and Thank my little sister Riley...She has no idea how grateful I have been for her being able to watch Drake this summer.. I know it is going to be hard for her to go back to school. But, Riley..you have NO IDEA how much Skyler and I love you..and we are so grateful that you would even be willing to take a summer out of your life to take care of our little guy. Even though he is your nephew..Drake loves you so much, you have seen first that I haven't seen as his own mother..I will miss the pictures that you would send to me during the day, that made it so much easier to be at work, knowing someone that LOVED him as much as I do was at my house taking care of him...I know he is going to miss his aunty ri. We love you Riley..Good luck with school!!

California Baby!!

Wow!! Did we ever have fun on our trip.. We went with my family.We left Tuesday July 22 at 6 am..yes it was early. I was a little worried how Drake would do on the airplane it was his first time flying. He was so good, didn't cry once. He slept..We flew into Long Beach, rented a car with the family and off we took to drive about 2 hours to Indio. It was only like 108 degrees when we got there..(Indio is about 30 mins or so from Palm Springs) We drove around Indio because our condo wasn't ready for us yet. It is such a pretty place, everything is green and they keep it very very nice. We decided about 3:30 we would go see if the condo was ready for us..and sure enough it was...and we all walked in we couldn't believe how nice it was...(there are some pictures below) My dad said to us all, "This is not your 12,000 pointer, this is your 20,000 pointer", and wow it was nice.
On Thursday the 24th, we headed to Palm Springs to Knott's soak city for the day... My dad the night before got on their website and rented us a cabana for the day, boy were we glad he did that. It was about 110 degrees, you had to wear your flip flops EVERYWHERE you went because the ground was so hot. It was so much fun..they have this tube ride and it is like a toilet bowl effect. Skyler and my sisters talked me into going on it..there are 4 people to a tub, or you can have 2. While we were standing in line as I was watching others come out into the bowl, I asked the girls in front of us, " Am I going to die?" They just laughed and said no, but you don't want to go down backwards, because there is a vertical drop. Oh great! I thought to myself..and sure enough I went down BACKWARDS, down a 37 foot vertical drop..needless to say I screamed like a baby all the way down..I jumped out of the tub as fast as I could(scracthed my knee)and walked out of the pool.. My sister Amber said to me," You looked like you were going to cry, I couldn't even enjoy it, but I did have fun." I just laughed and said I will NEVER do that again. Well, I didn't but they did and they took my dad(big guy) they made it all the way on the top of the bowl where the water comes out (SCARY)..

We did some good shopping for a few days, and chilled at the condo. Got some sun!! Overall we had a blast and wished we could go back..oh and we survived the LA qwake of '08......hope all is going well with everyone... Thanks Mom and Dad for letting us go with you...We love you!!
