It has been awhile since I've posted anything and I wish I had all these wonderful pictures of great and fun things we've been doing but I don't. I'm not going to sugar coat this post so if you don't want to read about me being Debbie Downer then you can stop reading now. Last week was a tough one for us. It started on Monday of Dusty finding out he would be laid off in 2-4 weeks. Then it turned into the end of the week but they asked him to work Tuesday in Snyder which was God putting him in the right place at the right time. Tuesday while he was in Snyder he found out that everyone he works with was called into work and told to clean out they're trucks and go file unemployment. While this was happening Dusty was offered to transfer to Snyder, which he gladly accepted. No, we are not moving to Snyder (even though that's what the company wants), right now he is driving back and forth or renting a hotel room some nights. He is looking for a small camper to borrow or rent from someone who is not using it to leave there to use on the nights he has to stay if anyone knows of one.
On Tuesday Brier started throwing up, I took him to the doctor on Wednesday and of course nothing was wrong with him. He continued to throw up all week and I took him back on Friday. They thought he needed an IV so we headed to the hospital. After trying 3 times and blowing the vein they decided to send him home and we would try to get him to drink and eat. Didn't work. So we took him to the doctor Saturday morning. She sent him home with Fenitgren (?).
Didn't work. Saturday at about 11 we decide to take him to the ER and they were finally able to get an IV in his foot. We spent the next 3 days in the hospital trying to get him to eat. We got out late last night. Hopefully we are on the road to recovery. They are afraid Brier has something in his throat like a blockage and that combined with a stomach bug really took him down. Please pray that Brier doesn't have anything in his throat and he will recover quickly.
Also, our dryer quit in the midst of this. At least I can wash all the throw up covered stuff I just can't dry it.

It's Fun to be One!!!
Yesterday was Baylor's 1st birthday, I can't hardly believe it. I couldn't help but be a little sad knowing she's not considered a baby anymore, now I have to consider her a toddler. When Brier turned one I was excited and thought it was going to get easier (was that a dumb thought) but with her I want her to stay just like she is for awhile. But on the other hand I'm looking forward to getting to do fun things as a family that you don't get to do when you have a baby.
By the way she is walking but I think she hasn't gotten her nerve to if someone isn't right there to catch her because usually Brier gets excited when she's walking and starts running towards her and when she sees him coming she sits down really fast.

I'm a Cowboy, BABY
This was Baylor's very first horse ride. Can you believe it? We went this long before she got on a horse. She really liked it until Dusty walked off and I think she got scared then. She's such a daddy's girl.

Baylor wrangling her walker.
Brier with his new boots and saddle.

Even Trista joined us.


Girl time at Lori's bridal luncheon.
Picture this, take out the fact that they're just wee ones and they are naked in the tub. Does this not look just like, Brier pimpin' it and Trista acting swanky because she got him and Baylor acting heartbroken because he didn't choose her. Do you see it?
Baylor's 1st popsicle
Her yelling at me because we were all laughing at her.
