Tulips, Fuzzies, Molars, and Jewelry:

When I got home from work today, I saw a beautiful display of red tulips. I have a sweet husband! "Thank you," Aaron, for the beautiful flowers! I love you, more!

Hailey HATES sock Fuzzies in her toes. During every bath (lately) she spends at least 2 minutes getting the Fuzzies off her toes. When she is on the potty, she whips her feet up (one at a time) pulls her toes apart and makes sure the "Fuzzies are all done." Tonight, while I was putting Hay in her jammies, she grabbed my foot and pulled off my sock. I thought she was going to tickle my foot, or, do her version of "piddy." ("This little piggy.." for those who know it). NOPE!!! She grabbed each toe of mine with her little hands, said "hmmm.. Fuzzy?" once she looked at every toe (on both of my feet) she said "all done." I was laughing so hard I couldn't tell her to stop. I actually had tears :)

Hailey has been extra restless during the night while sleeping. She still has occasional night terrors. Yesterday,I discovered she has 3 molars poking thru! My poor Hay.. No wonder she's been crabby :(

Recently, I had mentioned interviewing for a new job. After an entire week of "I'll have Martha call you back," I thought for sure I didn't get the job I worked so hard for. Turns out they were just extremely busy and I GOT THE JOB! I got hired full time at Kay Jewelers in the Fashion Show Mall (a very high end ritzy mall). I'm required to dress up. So, we've been shopping, hoping to find some good deals! I'm crossing my fingers I can transfer to Idaho around May. If not, Aaron's going to try for work here in Vegas and I'll commit to one more year here. Wish me luck!! I'm nervous.

Nothing much right now...

I don't really have any new news.. Were still planning to move. I was hoping to get a job at Kay Jewelers here in Vegas. They're opening a new store in Twin Falls in May. I've interviewed with the manager and district manager.. Took two online tests.. Was told I "passed with flying colors.." And they keep saying they'll call me back. For a week I continue to get no response. Unless I hear from them soon, I suppose it's safe to say I didn't get the job. Back to square one! Hailey has really grown the past week. She's still copying everything she hears. My favorite word she says is "Chi-Chen.." (chicken). She's so active in her sleep. Connie says she's much like Andrew was as a child. We were in Bullhead, Arizona, the other day.. During the night Hay said "boo-der" (booger) in her sleep. She didn't say anything else! I could barely keep quiet.. Didn't want to wake her. I kept laughing.. Wondering why she was dreaming of boogers. She cracks me up! I love her so much! Miss her.. We left her for the weekend with Nana. It's so hard for me to leave her :( Aaron and I celebrated our 4th Anniversary! Wow- it sure has flown by. Connie needed our help in Bullhead, so, we spent our Anniversary with her packing. Im so happy Aaron is doing so well.. Getting healthier every day. Love you sweetheart!

HEALTHY news:

Today Aaron had his follow up appointment from all the blood work he's had done. The liver specialist told him his liver is back to "normal" and as long as he lives a healthy life style he will be ok. They took him off the med's and told him he is done for now with doctor's. In 6 months, he's suppose to see a liver specialist to do some follow up blood work and (only if necessary) a biopsy.. If ordered by the doctor. Looks like all is well and we can now focus on our future. I'm so grateful to all those close family and friends who kept Aaron in your prayers and who participated on our special fast. I know your faith is what helped him to recover fully and so quickly. Were blessed to have such loving family and friends among us :)

Superbowl Sunday..

We have passed a "bug" of some kind around each other the past week or so.. Didn't feel right going to church today, which meant we all sat around watching the superbowl. Hailey is getting big so quickly. She repeats everything she hears.. I mean everything! Today saw a commercial and copied it immediately after.. It was funny what she said. She's working on her potty training. What a job that is! She has a good attitude towards it most of the time. When she's being stubborn, I let her choose between going potty like a big girl, or, getting something taken away at the moment like her blanket. So far, she has done well. I'm very happy at her progress so far. Of coarse there is a long way to go before she is trained! Aaron's looking better everyday! The jaundice is nearly gone and he's getting stronger and stronger. I'm very proud of his progress.. As difficult as it can be, he's successfully followed doctors orders and is getting healthier daily! We're suppose to be getting results this week from the last two blood tests and hear what he has to do next. Hoping all is well and that he has a bright future ahead! Art (my bro in law) is going to have some testing done this week. He's been sick and we hope it goes well! Hailey says her own prayers at meal times and before bed. She's mentioned uncle art in every prayer for quite some time.. So sweet. I'm still working at Target.. Though this time of year is extremely slow.. I'm only scheduled for 4 hours this week! Ugh! Soon as we know the plan for Aaron, I'm going to bust a move and try to get our family settled somewhere and get the job situation figured out. Will write again soon. Someday I will be able to post pictures again! (I hope!) it's suppose to be 69degrees tomorrow.. Yay! Maybe we can spend some time at the park :)
