A lot has happened and we are a very busy family now. Thus the reason there hasn't been a post in a few months. I don't have pictures today but I will put some up asap.
Sterling and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary on June 29th. It was neat because last year on our anniversary it was confirmed that we were having a baby. One year later we have twins who are healthy and happy even after all that they went through. We went to the Homestead that is up in Midway while Sterling's parents babysat the twins over night. It was SO beautiful. You would have thought that we would have gotten a good nights sleep for the first time in a while but I kept waking up thinking I needed to feed a crying baby. Grrr. We found out Micah had a fever and went to pick up the babies after seeing Eclipse. We ended up taking Micah to UrgentCare where they told us he had pneumonia (sp?), When we got home from UrgentCare he had a fever of 103.3, Took him to our family Dr the next day because we couldn't get rid of the fever and he gave us the go ahead to give Motrin. Again, fever got up to 103.5 and the Dr told us to go to Primary Children because there wasn't anything in Micah's chest x-rays that would cause such a high fever. Two tired babies, two frazzled parents, a CT, catheter, IV, and x-ray, and 5 hours later we were back at home with a Viral diagnosis. It has to work it's way out. BUT, we knew that there wasn't anything wrong with his shunt. On a happier note, a few days before we left for our anniversary Mattea had been working on rolling over. Well, she finally rolled all the over for her Aunt Lindsay while we were gone!!! Arggh. We didn't know she had done it until we told them that she rolled over for the first time only to find out that it wasn't her first time. It's still fun to see though. Micah doesn't seems to have much interest in rolling over but he is much more observant then Mattea. It's amazing how different they are!
On a VERY happy note, Sterling is being transitioned to a permanent employee for Goldman Sach's. Yay! We get insurance! Not a moment too soon either. I'm in constant pain because we can't afford my meds for my fibro and Sterling is an inch from losing his life the majority of the time because we can't afford the meds for his ADHD and I'm about to strangle him.
We're a very happy and a very blessed family and our testimonies are strengthened daily with all our trials and blessings. I'm amazed at what a person/family is capable of with the Lord as our guide. I'm grateful to my Heavenly Father and for his plan of salvation that granted me my Savior to shoulder everything that comes across my plate. I truly feel that we lived in a blessed dispensation to have all the truths of this wonderful gospel. To mention a few I know to be true, Priesthood, Temple ordinances, Covenants, Baptism, Prophets, Scriptures, Prayer, Faith, Repentance, Atonement, Word of Wisdom, and Revelation.
