hawaii

so we got home from hawaii on tuesday night at 1115....or should i say that is about when we got to the ptown airport. we then had to do all that fun stuff like getting baggage....car...feeding baby...so we arrived in bend at about 345am wed. hawaii was absolutely amazing....well of course it was. we had a lot of fun and are so thankful that myk's parents invited us go shack up with them. i do have to say it is quit different taking a bambino with you on vaca...not as relaxing...but still tons of fun. jonah absolutely loves swimming pools..it was so cute..he is not so sure about that sand stuff. we bought him this little floating device that he sits in and he had a blast!! it was so hard to leave that gorgeous weather...especially with what the weather is like over hear...ya what the heck is up with this weather any way....good grief...isnt it almost june for goodness sake!!
jonah ended the trip with the start of croup..soooo sad!! i took him to the dr on wed and am giving him a steroid to help..so that it does not get any worse...but unfortunately he told me that until it is gone he is contagious....booooo. it was so scary yesterday and this morning...it is terrible watching your little one have a hard time breathing. well hopefully he will get better soon...the good news is it is not getting any worse...keep him in your prayers...thanks!! so my computer is not working very well right now so i cant get any pics uploaded...i will when it is better...for sure!!

pole peddle paddle....a success

sooo...nothing like pushing yourself to the limit and i totally mean LIMIT!!! i did the biking, 22miles from bachelor to downtown, then i ran 10k, and then the final sprint of the day 1/3 mile...pure exhaustion does not even explain what i felt. i do have to say that i am not only total stoked that i can say that i accomplished this but also the fact that amanda and i got 1st in our division....yay!!!! amanda did the snowboarding, crosscountry skiing, and kayaking....way to go girl :) before my final sprint i had about a half an hour break so i went with my mom and jonah to find some shade...it was pure bliss...jonah could not get enough of me. he was all cuddles and smiles...I LOVED IT!
i have to give my mom a special THANK YOU!!! myk was out of town, so she took the time to come over here and watch jonah for me in order for me to be able to complete this race. thank you so much mom!!! i love you so much and cannot thank you enough for your kind heart and love for my little boy. jonah sure does love his nana! :)

mama loves you sooo much!

these are moments that MUST be cherished and held on to. no matter how hard the day may be....this is the instant cure. God is so amazing! i have been so blessed with this perfect little boy....i love you jonah michael!
