Sick and Tired...

of being sick & tired.

Kevin is on day SIX of being sick and it's kinda throwing off our schedule.

We, especially Hunter, are very much schedule people and when Kev couldn't play our bedtime hide and seek bit or be the one to tuck him into bed with all his animals, he was NOT having it.

Our son usually goes to bed without any problems and tonight he cried himself to sleep. 

(insert unworthy mother feeling)

It's been a long weekend and doesn't look like it's gonna be a much better week.

Wish us luck.

PS. This is what a 34 weeks and 3 days belly looks like with a sick husband and runny nosed toddler.

Getting bigger eh?!!

worst Blogger ever.

20 days since I last blogged?!

Blah.

I should be fired.

It has been a crazy three weeks but I am excited to be back and update you all on that has been happening with The Fords.

After my dad and then my sister McKenna both visited Utah in the beginning of the month, it was only fair that my mama came for a stay as well.

She arrived by train on Wednesday May 8th and stayed until Monday the 13th.

It was AMAZING to have her here and we had so much fun.

Hunter was just a LITTLE excited to have his Grandma here.

We enjoyed a few days of complete relaxation. Staying in our PJ's all day, watching TV shows, drinking Diet Coke and enjoying being together.

On Friday we went to the Beehive Bazaar handmade craft event and Sundance for lunch.

We obviously LOVE Sundance.

(We go EVERY TIME my parents are here)

Right when we got there Daniel was ending his shift (both my sister and her husband work at Sundance) so he was able to join us for lunch.

We sure Love Aubrey & Daniel and are so glad they live close and that we get to see them often.

Probably one of my FAVORITE photos ever. He ADORES his Grandma.

Sunday was Mothers Day.

My FIRST Mothers Day.

It was PERFECT.

Of course It was extra special because my mom was here.

What better way to spend Mothers Day then with my mother and the one who made me a mother.

Our day started with Breakfast in Bed.

Kevin's famous french toast.

The weather was beautiful Sunday afternoon.

Perfect for a mini mommy photo shoot.

(Sad I didn't get a photo with my mommy)

Aubrey came over to celebrate Mothers Day with us and Daniel joined us later in the evening for games! 

Dinner was delicious.

Tri-tip (that marinated for three days), potatoes, corn, homemade rolls and a white carmel macadamia nut cheesecake.

Mom went home Monday night.

How come time flies so fast when you are having so much fun?!

We had an incredible week hanging out with the family.

One of our FAVORITE parts was the many late night games of HEADS UP. 

Have you heard of this new game?

It's basically charades with your iPhone.
It records you and it is absolutely HILARIOUS. 

It's available in the apple app store.

Download it NOW. 

So worth it.

Many a family memories made.

Selfie. Not a self breast examination. 

After mom left the three little Fords were sick.
Really Sick.
Mom left Monday and for the next 7 days our home needed to be quarantined.
Coughing, sneezing, runny noses and poor Hunter got the WORST rash I have ever seen.
All week we stayed inside trying to SURVIVE and going a little stir crazy.

It wasn't until Saturday afternoon that we were able to leave the house.
A late brunch at The Crepe Co and a walk around the GORGEOUS BYU campus was about all we could handle but it was so nice to get some fresh air.

It's a new week and we are all feeling a little better.
Headed to St. George this weekend for some sun and a little family vaca.
Hope everyone has a great week.

Here are some of my recent OOTD's for my fashion ladies!
Enjoy.

New: Friday's Hot List.

Happy FRIDAY Readers.

I have decided to add another weekly feature to my blog.

Each Friday I will be sharing a few of my favorite things of the week. 

Clothes, foods, products, TV & Movies, books, stores.. you name it.

Anything hubby, baby or I consider HOT for our week.

It will all be here in this new feature I'm calling "Hot List" 

Enjoy!

Turns out all of the items on this weeks Hot List are PRODUCTS.

Top row are hot items for baby Hunter. 

-Aden & Anais swaddles as he grows bigger and to keep him warmer as the nights get cooler.

-Boogie Wipes after his monster BOOGERY sneezes. 

(Hunter loves these. Soft on baby's nose and has saline in them to break up the mucus)

Next row is for Mom.

-Amazing purple skinnies I bought at Nordstrom Rack a few weeks back are still sitting in the bag, on my floor, in the bedroom BEGGING me to wear them. Maybe tomorrow?!

-New Bare Minerals Foundations. I decided to switch from my normal BM foundation when the lady in the shop gave me the mini make-over with it. It looked great. Sadly, it may be a shade to light (I look GHOSTLY white) and is causing me to breakout. 

I am really hoping the breakouts are from stress and being sick all week because I really do love the way the new foundation feels on my skin.

Last row is Dad.

The sickest of us all this week.

-He's been wearing these sexy surgical masks to protect baby Hunter and I from his vicious cough. (Seriously it's been 6 days and counting of deep chest coughs, coming home from work early and headaches. Poor Dad)

-And of course cough drops for a little relief.

We are going to the Utah State Fair tomorrow. 

What are your plans?

Have a lovely weekend everyone! 

We are still alive...

Barely hanging in there.

Been one of those weeks.

I have this GORGEOUS new MacBook Pro sitting on my sofa saying: 

"Kyla, come play with me! Come write lovely blog posts, and edit photos and make that baby video you have wanted to make." 

Sorry Mac.

After a weekend of birthday's and baby blessing and TONS of family in town, our little family has hit a wall.

Poor little Hunter is having a rough week. Nasal congestion, constipation and as of this morning not keeping down his meals. So stressful for mom. I don't want to be one of those over reacting mothers, but he is my first and to see him so miserable is breaking my heart. Watching him closely this morning and hoping we don't have to take him back to the hospital. 

Daddy Kevin has a cough.

Mommy has a clogged milk duct. 

So not Awesome! 

Keep us in your prayers readers. 

Maybe by next week I will FINALLY be able to blog about all of the wonderful things that happened before this week. 

Hopefully.
