It's Been A While

I haven't posted in forever, I know...

We are living back in Flagstaff and Kris is working on his Masters Degree in Mechanical Engineering. Hopefully he will be done in December but that all depends on how quickly his thesis comes together. It has been quite the challenge with Kris in school and gone all the time. It's hard keeping up with the house and the girls. I love my girls. They keep me so busy! I love being a wife and mother. It's everything that I've ever wanted and more. I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Kaylee is 3 now and Maizy is 1. I can't believe how quickly time has gone by. The girls have grown so quickly. Kaylee can be quite my little helper but she can also be quite the handful. She likes to play with Maizy and loves her too much sometimes. However, like every other siblings, they have their moments and don't like to share or be around each other. Kaylee loves being outside, learning, watching movies, helping, coloring, reading, playing with Play-Doh, and many other things that 3 years old enjoy. She loves being on the computer and will probably know how to work it better than me before too long. Maizy is busy and tries to keep up with Kaylee. She has been walking for a month and is talking a ton. She doesn't like baby food anymore and wants to eat whatever we are eating and whenever we eat. She loves food, baths, being outside, Kaylee, and so much more.

We finally sold our house in Payson. It was sad but also a great relief to have it off our hands. Heavenly Father truly has watched over us and guided us in our situation. Kris always wanted to get his masters degree so it was Heavenly Father's way to get us there. We were too hard-headed to listen so we had to get laid off to get us back to Flagstaff.

Also, we have found that Kaylee has Vesicoreteral Reflux. It is treatable and we have a few options. However, I don't think we would have found out had we stayed in Payson. Our pediatrician just didn't seem to listen to me. Basically the ureter, which connects the kidney and the bladder, is abnormal in size. It is allowing the urine to flow backwards. We can put her on an antibiotic for a year, do a Deflux where they make a bump in the ureter, or we can do a lapriscopic or a open surgery. We are still trying to make a decision. She was getting repeated urinary tract infections and kidney infections.

Although it's been almost 2 years since Kris was laid off, we really have been blessed and Heavenly Father has directed our paths to where we need to be.

Well, that's about all for now. I have know idea how often I will post but at least you all know we are alive and well!
