Welcome to this world!!

My baby sister Celestial had her first little boy Saturday night!! They named him Matix Bret Tippetts. He was born June 20th 2009 (a little before midnight =/) He weighed 7 lbs. 11 oz. and was 21 inches long. He looks a lot like his daddy. He was born with lots of light brown hair, his daddy has a fohawk so when the nurses brought him in they had already styled his hear up to match his daddy. He sweet as can be and there both doing great.


(Celestials Checking out his birth mark that matches hers in the same spot and looks alike =))

Lots of family fun time!!

Life has been busy and fun. Ive been pretty impressed with how well my kids have been while were out and about so Ive kept it going that way. We run all kinds of errands while daddys at work and weve been going to the park and pool lots. We never stay in side for even a day at a time. The weathers been great, not to hot yet! The boys have been seeing my side of the family cousins a few times a week lately. We go to the pool with them 1-2 x's a week and then friday nights when were starting to rotate for date nights. They've been loving it. And this past weekend pete side of the family cousins were down so they got to enjoy them all weekend. Also Pete and I had our 4 year wedding anniversary! Jaiden got his first blck eye (looks worse in real life) Rylan and him bumped heads and it first looked like a rock was under his skin buts its getting better. Kadence is now 7 weeks old and is still the perfect baby, Im hoping she stays this great. She hardly cries. Her daddy even held her over some water at the park and she just sinched up her little legs. Too precious. Life has been going pretty well around here.





(Soccer is now over for the summer and im glad to have our saturdays back for now. =)

Hearing... What a Blessing!!

I have ALOT to be thankful for this WONDERFUL day. When Kadence was in the hospital she failed the hearing test. I wasnt worried because Rylan failed his like 10 times in a row in front of me and he can hear (Just fluid still in the ear canals) but then they tested her again at the Pediatrician. She failed again, in both ears. They told me I needed to she an audiologist. At this point I was really worried for my little girl. Hearing Impairment runs in my family and I thought for sure she was just another member to have this problem. I left the office and called my husband crying. I cried numerous times in the next week. I was very upset and NOT excepting of this. Pete was great about it. He pretty much felt like even if she was completely deaf " Oh well" we'll all learn sign language is how he felt about it (Of course he didnt want that for her but he accepted it right off) Im glad one of us did. I set an appointment with the Audiologist but they couldnt see me for 5 weeks. WHAT! so for 5 weeks I have been wondering If my child can hear, or to what extent she cant hear, or that maybe nothings wrong at all. Well Over the past few weeks she has responded to VERY LOUD noises but that was just about it. So I knew she could hear something. Anyways over the past five weeks I have prayed daily for my daughter> Everytime I felt like I wanted to pray that she would be fine and that she would hear fine I felt like I should stop and pray that her and I will be able to ACCEPT a hearing disabilty. So that being said I thought for sure she had some hearing loss. and over the past 5 weeks I have felt ALOT more accepting of the idea. No I didnt want that for her but I could accept it. I would way rather a child have a disability like that than some major health problems. So today was her appointment. I felt ok this morning as I have been, but driving there I was so unbelievably nervous. So I get there and Im grabbing all the pamplets there to read, thinking Ill be needing them and then they call me back. Kadence pretty much slept through it all. The whole time the doctor kept saying looks good. She responded to that (The ear drum sends a vibration back to the machine if it heard it). I almost cried right then and there but was able to hold back. Walking out to the car tears started rolling down!! MY BABY CAN HEAR!! I cant even begin to tell you how relieved I feel. My heart felt like it would explode out of my chest I was so excited.

I just kept thinking in my head how soo many things in life we take for granted. I sat in my family room on day listening to my washer and dish washer and thought>> Wow, to not be able to hear that, let alone the beautiful sounds in life. I just feel so thankful for my heathly family. I know heavenly father gave me that scare so I would appreciate more the things I DO have in my life that are wonderful. Ya, our life isnt together the way we want it to be but we healthy and were happy together and we have 3 beautiful babies!! And now I know my baby can hear me when Im talking to her. Today was a wonderful day!!

Long time no Blog!!

Ive been really slacking on my blog since Kadence Arrived.. More importnant things in life I guess. But i do Love that i can read back through it and remember things way better. So It really is important to me. So I put a few blogs up. Check them out below.

One mOnth Tommorrow!!

I cant believe a whole month has passed by since our sweet girl has joined our lives. I feel soo blessed to have this amazing daughter. She is soo precious and sweet. Shes SOO easy going and hardly cries or fusses. Shes still sleeping lots through out the day and in a wholes months time the longest shes ever been a wake was 3 1/2 hrs straight. Usually its about 1 hr max. She wakes up 2 x's in the night ( 3 hrs span) At two weeks she had already gone camping and got her toe nails painted pink ( that right were mixing up the real girly with the outdoor girly.. Keep her well balanced =) ) Her poor eye has a blocked tear duct ( Jaiden and I had this when we were born) She just looks sometimes like shes starting to get pink eye.. Just the gunkies not the pink. I LOVE getting her all dolled up.

Petes 1st place Soccer!!

Pete started a playing indoor soccer with some friends the past few months. Its been alot of fun to go and watch every Thursday nights >>> even the 10pm games! Its alot faster pace than my little boys and lots of fun to watch. Even the crazy awesome girls bounce these balls off their heads (hence why I dont play,, Im not that tough =) haha). Tonight was the final game and they took FIRST PLACE!! YAY!! He signed up to play next season too.

Camping!!

2 weeks ago was memorial weekend so Me and the kids went camping from Sunday to MOanday ( Pete had to work monday so he couldnt come) with some of my family and my little Sister Celestials in Laws. We went to the same spot they had fathers nad sons. It was alot cooler than I thought it would be. I wouldnt have dared take my 2 week old camping except that my parents brought along their trailer so we had a/c and beds to sleep on. It was lots of fun!! I have always been a camping girl>> more so than my husband likes to camp but its growing on him. THe boys had lots of fun roasting hot dogs and marshmallows. Shooting the potato guns and bow and arrows and riding the 4 wheelers. I cant wait to take them camping again.
