Poor Livy

Okay WOW 3 posts in one day. Yes somebody has my 2 kids so I have a little time. Anyway. I have no pictures but I will share 2 story's that happened in the last few weeks just to make the rest of you moms feel really good.
So on a Monday I was shaving my legs just by putting my legs only in the tub. Then a long came Livy and she wanted in the tub. So in she goes and I finish up. I leave the bath room to dry my legs and finish getting dressed and when I come back she has taken my razor and cut her little finger and cut off 1/4 of finger nail. So we get a band aid and for the rest of the afternoon she rests her finger on a pillow well watching movies. So then Shane comes home from school and reminds me that I need to put those things away as soon as I am done with them. Okay so I feel bad.
Well then Tuesday comes around and I her "LIVY NO THOSE ARE ONLY FOR MOMMY" it is Kale telling her that my Extra strength Liquid Gel caps are not for her but for me and then he takes the bottle from her and comes and gets me. Good Job Kale. I run into the kitchen and take my finger in her mouth and get what is left inside. She only ate 3 but I called the poison control centre and then calculated that she would be fine but might get a little sleepy. Then they also took my name, address and phone number. Probably to come get my kids I thought for sure. Anyway she ended up being just fine didn't even take a nap. But when Shane got home you could imagine how bad I felt when I had to tell him that Livy got some pills out of my purse and eat them. Well I felt pretty bad and wondered what was going to happen on Wed. and if Shane even wanted to leave me home with the kids. Everything turned out just fine the next day and I have learned my lesson.

Blessing Day

We had a wonderful day when we Blessed Luc. Lots of family came to support us and helped out with food and what not. It was great and we are so thankful to have such loving supportive family members. We ended up feeding 55 people and stuffed us all in my parents home. Thank you for all the wonderful food that everybody helped provide. Luc is a very special boy and we feel so blessed that he choose to come and spend this life with us. I am greatful for all of my children and feel like I have be blessed so much to have been able to have all 3 of them. I couldn't image not knowing of our Heavenly Fathers plan of Eternal families because family is what brings me the most joy. Thank you all for all your love. Love the ORR's

Lucas

Well it has been a long time. Here are some pictures of our new little man. We love him and are happy that he is here safe and sound. He came in a hurry and that was fine when all was said and done. I didn't get the epidural like I wanted and drove in the middle of the night to Lethbridge so that I could have one. Things progressed really fast and 30min after getting to the hospital he was here! He is healthy and is a great baby and we love him. Kale and Olivia also think he is pretty fun for the most part.

Olivia's 2nd Birthday

Well it is hard to believe that she is 2 now. We had a great day and she got very spoiled. Thank you to all that came and helped out. It was a very cold night but we all had a great time. I even made fudge icing for the cake and we had Soup and Chili for supper. She is getting to be a very grown up girl with a mind of her own. She loves babies, blankets, and aprons. I even had a little time to make her that ragged brown blanket that she is wrapped up in. Well, Happy Birthday Olivia. Even though Grandma and Grandpa Hardy weren't here we did get a pic of Olivia on the Phone with them.

Excited for Christmas

Well see how our camera is broken I have decide to share some pictures of our past Christmas'. They kids are getting so excited. We started our advent tree today where the kids get to take a bag off the tree and take out a treat or a cheap little present. So today was the first day and they had so much fun. I am not sure they really understand that much yet because wanted to open more then just one. He will catch on soon. There is only one thing that I am missing this Christmas season and that in SNOW!!! I can't wait to get a lot of the white stuff that will stay on the ground so that we can go out and play. Shane is done class on the 12th so it will be fun to have him home and not worried about exams or harder classes to come. Have I said how excited I am for Christmas I think it might be harder for me to go to sleep this year then when I was a kid. Well Merry Christmas and hopefully we get a new camera soon so I don't miss out on some great pictures of the kids and my big belly.

Ultra Sound

Well it has been so long since I have done anything on here so I am now going to start trying to do better. Today was our ultrasound and it went great. We had a guy do it that knew a lot and was very fast. Fast is important when you have a full bladder and they insist on pushing on it. That should have a post of its own. But the baby is doing great. It looks like it is 20 weeks along and as far as he could see everything is functioning the way it should be. YA!!! We feel so blessed to have this little on its way to our family and to be doing so well after all it has been through already in its short life so far. For those that don't know, when I was 9 weeks Pregnant I had my appendix out. It went good and we have just been waiting for this day to see that our child has all its fingers and toes and that it is healthy as for as we can know for now. We are very blessed and can't wait to have a new member of our little family.

OLD NAUVOO

More Pics

NAUVOO

Here are a few pics of are family Holiday. We had an awesome time, it is a place that everybody needs to visit. Our kids loved it and they loved seeing Grandpa and Grandma.

AWESOME

Well I thought I would put up a quick post to let you all know how much we are enjoying our holiday. It is a wonderful place and has been so great to be here. The stories about the people and the homes that are here are very interesting and touching. It has also been fun being here with my parents. They are so lucky to be here and to be able to stay for so long. It really takes some time to take it all in here. We will post some pics and maybe some of our favourite things when we get home. I don't think I can say that I have been on a holiday where I was excited to go home but it will be hard to leave family and also this very special place where so much history took place.

The Count down is ON!!

Well we are all starting to get pretty excited and are counted down how many sleeps left till we get to go and visit Grandpa and Grandma Hardy. We are also very excited to see all the sites there in Nauvoo. So as of tonight 4 more sleeps. The kids aren't quite sure. Kale keeps say "airplane scary, and then he says all better." He is most excited about see his grandparents and he always says that him and Grandpa are going to hit golf balls in the water. We also just got a call last night from Bishop Quinton that he would like us to share our experiences the sunday after we get home. That should make preparing a talk a little bit easier. We are so excited for the knowledge we will gain and the spirit that we will feel well we are there. I am EXCITED IF anybody can't tell. NAUVOO HERE WE COME!!!

Blanket #2

Here is my second Ragged blanket I have made. I love them the are fun to make and look so cute when they are done. My first was for Ava my niece for her Baptism and this big one I made for my Friend Deanna. They had just lost there little baby boy a little after he was born. So I thought that something comforting would be nice anyway. So for those that wanted to see it and didn't get too, here it is. I still have a couple to make but I am excited to keep up the fun sewing.

HAIR

Hair is a very precious thing to our children. They don't seem to have much of it early on in life. But he are so happy that Livy's is growing much faster then Kale's ever did. The other day I thought I would try to scrunch her hair becuase it is kind of kinkie and looks like it wants to curl but might be to dry. Any way it turned out pretty cute and she looked like a pretty little girl. It is fun to have some hair to play around with. She didn't like it much but well that is the story of a girls life. I just hope that the top will start growing some time soon. But we love her anyway and she lights up our lifes. She has such a personality it is fun to watch her. Good thing she has a great big brother to keep her happy.

BEST BABY SITTER

I have to tell you this little story. When we got home from Okotoks we had quite a few messages on the answering machine. One was from Grandma Orr saying that they want to come out to the temple. But it was from Thursday night and so we figured they had already come. But called wanted to call and talk any like always. So we called and they hadn't come to the temple but because we were home they would come tonight being Saturday. So we were all so excited to see Grandpa and Grandma and they brought Uncle Brody with them. SO Shane and I went to the temple as well that night with them. Brody was happy to watch both of our kids for us like always. So off we went, and it was so nice. It is always great to be able to go together but also with parents or family. When we got home everybody seemed to be just fine. Then Brody told us what happened well we were gone. Oliva has been a little runny out the back end lately and she pooped not only up her back to all the way to her neck and shoulders. So he gave her a bath changed her and then play Wii with them. He did so great and we are so glad that he already know that he is going to make some pretty women really happy someday. He will be a great dad and a great helper. We always feel like our kids are in good hands when Uncle Brody is around. Thank You Brody you are great. I am sure we will all have some great laughs about this for a little while. YOU ARE AWESOME AND WE LOVE YOU!

FUN weekend with the Anderson Family

We had a great weekend with the Anderson Family. We went to Okotoks to go and visit and have some fun with Friday being a day off for Shane. So Johanna and Russ took us to this cool Skating Rink in the Mountains. It is actually a Helicopter pad that has been flooded up in the Kananaskis. They kids had a great time and so did the adults. It was nice to have it all to our selves. Very FUn and Pretty as well. This is what living in Canada is all about. Then it was off for some lunch. And of course it wasn't even a choice, off to the Olive Garden. Not only was the food GREAT!!! as ever but the serves was awesome. We had the greatest waiter ever! Our last stop on our very eventful day was the ZOO. The kids loved the animals, feeding the ducks, and just walking around with one another. I loved watching the Himpo swim in the water. They are so fun to watch. It was a very fun time. I think I remember Jada even saying "skating, a resturant, and the zoo all in one day. I have never done 3 fun things all in one day before." It was great. The kids were so tried and ful it was home to bed and the adults watched a movie. Saturday morning Johy and I went to the Mall quick to buy the kiddies some clothes and then it was time to head home. We had such and great time. And we can't wait to do it again. Thank You, Thank You.

Decorating Cookies

For FHE we made Valentines cookies and then shared them with family that lived around our neighbour hood. Kale loved icing them and putting on the sprinkles. WE all had a really fun time. Livy liked eating everything she even like the spicy red hearts. That girl will eat anything. Then it was time to clean up and get the kids ready for bed. I just love their Christmas PJ so I thought it would be fun to take some pictures of them together in them. They are sitting in our new 1 1/2 chair. It is such a fun piece of furniture to have. I can sit in it comfortably with both kids. So fun. Happy Valentine's Day to everybody sorry we can't take cookies to you all.
