Crazy Life

Ok so the last about week has been crazy. First ok I was wrong its been more like the last 1 month. Because it started with the car accident and trip to arizona and then coming home and having to get a rental car for Robert and then figuring it all the money crap out with the insurance company.AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! And to top it all off when we had finished with all that and had talked to Dustin about what car we were going to get we had to find someone to drive it over to us. Which ended up being Roberts parents which would have been fine if they would have just brought it and then dropped it off but they had to make it into this big hugh ordeal. With doing things there way and not listening to us who the week before had just done the exsact same drive with 3 kids. So to make a long story short we don't have our second car yet and now Robert is using my van to go to work until Dustin can bring the car over. As we didnt know until 6 Thursday night that there was a problem with the car. And then after yelling and lots of words back and forth Roberts parents ended up driving back to Arizona. Which made my life alot easier in one way this last week. AHHHHH ok enough ranting better get my mind off of it. Thanks for listening.

GREATFUL!!!












I am grateful for life! It seems to me that life comes in waves. Not always crazy or bad. But it does seem to be busier and then slow down at times. I feel like the last 2 months (which when I was younger seemed like took forever) and now I don't know where all the time went. So when I woke up this morning I just felt like I needed to tell my kids and family that I was grateful for everything that they have done for me.

I am grateful for life as the more and more I think about the last two months it seems we have been on both ends of the spectrum. As our newest little guy was born on July 16Th and so adorable and brings such a wonderful spirit into our home sometimes when I feel like its been a crazy day I just love being the mom and getting to curl up on the couch with my baby and get the pleasure of being the one that feeds him and makes him be comfortable and safe that he just goes to sleep and makes that oh I'm happy an content noise. the hum hum little thing its such a awesome sound.
(wow sorry i don't think in sentences:)

And then again my wonderful husband about 2 weeks ago with a friend at work was in a car accident. And now that we or I are getting all the police reports and talking to witnesses and insurance companies and looking more closely at the actual car we are feeling more and more blessed that they were not more injured. As they both walked out of it and didn't have more then just cuts and bruises. I am very grateful for my Heavenly Father and for prayers. As I believe that they were definitely been watched over then.

I am also very grateful for my family back at home in Arizona as we just got home a week ago from getting to go see them. Its always a mixed batch of emotions when you go see your family. At least it is for me I always hope to be able to talk about whatever and be a quote normal family ( if there is such a thing). But we got to see people that we love and adore. We got to be with my brother who just got home from his mission. And then we also got to be with my parents and that is always great for me as my kids just love them so much that I tend to disappear. I know it makes them really grateful when we leave but I know that they wouldn't change not being with us for it. Then we got to spend some time with our best buddies from Queen Creek Pete and Ranee. Awesome People. They have such big hearts and then love us for just who we are. I mean anyone that let me come over and just hang out at there house in my jamies is someone I miss living 3 doors down from. ( Miss you ranee you really need to move to Texas heehaw)
Then Robert was able to because well we were in Arizona we were able to have all our friends and family there to bless Hyde. So two families that Robert on his mission to California helped baptize were able to come over and be there for the blessing. It was a great Sunday we had so many great testimony growing experiences that day. And so many people that we are blessed to love and who love us where there.

I am also grateful for my Brody and Riley as they constantly remind me to be patient and that things don't always have to be done the right way or they way I think is right as long as they get done and everyone is happy i am learning that is the right way. They also every morning the wake me up sometimes way to early but its always bring a smile to my face to her mom mom wake up. Plus its great to be reminded that even though you just gave them there food that your 2 yr old has to pray first and its making sure everyone is ready to pray right then so he can eat. Saying at the top of his lungs PRAYER!!!!

Well I just want to let all of my family that they are very important to me and that we love you all. Hope you have a wonderful day.

MY FIRST BLOG!!!


OK so here it goes. I've never done this before but it seems like a great way of getting my frustrations and excitement and my generology all down and out there for whoever and mostly my kids and family to see when they need it. And also when my kids are older and go mom when I was (insert age) what was our life like and so on. So just to worn you I like to ramble and so like it or lump it.

WOW so time goes by so fast. It was like yesterday that Robert and I got married and were living in a small and I mean tiny apartment. With no kids and now after 5 years of marriage we 2months ago had our 3rd precious baby. And for me that is really hard for me to say not to say I dont love and adore my children but I think I am alittle messed up that when my babies first come into my life I don't feel all the emotions like most mothers or what most mothers are supposed to feel after having a baby. But each baby is so different and so unique and speical and bring something so great into your life.

So whateles, oh well I guess I should tell you about us. I mean if its going to be call the whitmer clan then heck you should know who that is.

Well there is Robert the orignal Whitmer he is my hunky husband who is 26 and is a great man.
He is a Red Socks fan to the death. And love to play,watch, eat and sleep baseball. He also loves to watch and play basketball. He is a great dad and loves his kids so much. Like the other day he was in a car accident and he was in the er and I has seen him and he was doing fine but was waiting for the drs to clear him and he knew that I had taken the kids to the dr earlier that day for well check ups and he calls me back into the room just to ask how Hyde did at his check up. I was like he is wonderful and your crazy your straped to a backboard and you or thinking about how much your son weighs. He is so cute... I love him..

Then there is me Julia I am 24 wow I am so old hehehe. I am the mom or the 3 kiddos. I love to play with my kids and right now its playing duck duck goose with Brody and Riley. I also love to go shopping for anything mostly clothes and shoes. whateles after all I am a girl. I also love to hang out with great friends. Work on my scrapbook but havent really gotten it out sence Riley was born I know bad me she is 4 I should be doing better. I like to say I like to do photography but I am not really good at it. I guess I should say that I just like to look at great pictures of my kids and just great photos of anything. And wish that I could to that. I love to back yummy fattening goodies.

Riley she is 4 and thinks she needs to get married yesterday. She is so grown up that its scary. I look at her and think wow she is wonderful and just full of life. She is such a great happy friendly loveing person. She loves animals and coloring and playdough being outside and playing games like candy land and shoots and ladders. She also loves when I do her nails such a girly girl. yet when she is playing with the boys she can hold her own.

Brody he is 2 and full of life and everywhere. Some days I think he is going to drive me crazy and then he will come up to me and give me the best hug and kiss or just say "hi mom" ans smile and it just makes it all go away. He loves his Cars and Lightening McQueen. He also loves doing puzzels and playing outside.

Hyde he is 2 months old and is such a sweet baby waits for mom to get a free hand and then smiles and just says I love you with his eyes as he looks at you like he is looking right at your soul. Right now he loves to eat and sleep and mess his pants. hhehehe just wait soon he will be all over the place with his brother and sister.

We are so glad to have these great, wonderful sprits in our home and to learn and grow with them.

Well I hope that is what I was supposed to do. I guess I should say good bye as my battery is dyeing and everyone in my house is asleep and I am not not a good thing.
Bye
