Breast Reduction

So the other day I went in for a breast reduction. Most of you know it was needed. My big boobs caused a lot of back, neck and shoulder pain along with creases in my shoulders from my bra strap, horrible posture, shooting pain up and down my arms along with numbness because of the pressure on the nerves. Since it was medical reasons Insurance did pay for it and I am double covered right now which makes it a whole lot better too :) I have been doing really good as far as pain goes but I can't sleep worth crap (look at the time), so if anyone knows something good to take to help me sleep please tell me!!! I am really excited to see the out come.I have had the best help too. My boyfriend has been taking very good care of me, he empties out my gross drains and just caters to me. He is so sweet to me and is the best! My sister has helped out to as much as she can. My mom took Kade away for the weekend so I could have my recovery. He is having fun in Ephruim at my little sister's softball tournament. I have such good friends also that have been coming by to see me. Kristi and Katie came by the day I had my surgery and brought me over a goodie basket with all my favorites: Wheat Thins and Cheese Whiz, Mike and Ikes, Puddings, Jello, Pringles, Celebrity Gossip Magazines, the 1st season of Nip Tuck to watch and some Orange Vitamin Waters. Thanks girls! I have the best friends ever!!! Here are some pics and I wish I would of taken one of the cute basket but I was too drugged up at the time to think about that, LOL!Me in Pre- Op
My support system: Amanda and Marvin (the boyfriend)

Going in and really scared!
Right after if you can't tell I am totally drugged up!
My sister, me and Mike
He is soo sweet to me!
Finally leaving

Kade's Birhday Party



I know it is a little late because I had his party almost 2 weeks ago but better late then never. Kade had such a good birthday. All of his good friends and mine were there. I was going to have it swimming but because the cold weather wouldn't give up until just recently I had to change it to bowling. It was a lot of fun though. Here are a few pictures from it. He for sure got spoiled!








I love this little girl!!

Miss you Britt!

July 28,1983-June 10, 2003

I just wanted to do a post in memory of my bestfriend that was taken from all of us at such a young age due to a car accident. She was always there for me. Kristi, her and I were a little trio. Like I said in the post below she was there for Kade's birth and I was able to spend time with her her last few days. I have so many memories that I will keep with me forever. If anyone knew her couldn't help but love her spunky fun personality. I miss her so much and can't believe it has been 5 years. Love you Britt!! A few months before

Between our jr. and senior year when I had my surgery she was there with me that whole day then came over first thing to take care of me.

My Baby is 5!!

June 5th 2003 at 1:30pm the love of my life entered into my life. He was 6 lbs 13 oz, 19 1/2 inches long. I can't believe this was 5 years ago. He has grown up so much and so fast over the past 5 years. A lot of special things happened that day with him being born. One of my mom's bestfriends from Texas that she grew up with just so happens to live up here and she just so happens to be a doctor that delivers babies. I was and am lucky enough to have her as my doctor. I was also able to share this special day with my mom, sisters, dad, grandma,aunt, cousin, his girlfriend at the time and 2 of my best friends. It was a full room for sure. One of my bestfriends which most of you all know was killed in a car accident 5 days later which makes it even more special to me she was there. Kade was born with club feet which means they were completely turned in so we have gone through a few surgeries. He is good now and may need one more in the future. Here are some pics of some mile stones he has made through the last 5 years. FYI: Some pics are pictures I took of pictures so they are not the best quality,sorry.
