Sisters and a Brother!! =) *Updated*

August 10th, 2010

I have an obsessions with "Sisters". I have this eluded fantasy of how incrediably amazing it would be to have a sister. To have a instant best friend, to have someone to talk to, to have someone to grow up with, to have another women to understand you, have memories with, love you, love her back, appreciate you, taking care of your little sis, Ect. Someone that you know, NO matter what happenes, it won't matter because in the end, she's your sister.

                                                         (She is totally smiling in her sleep! LOL!)

I don't know...I've always wanted a sister, ALWAYS! I've always tried to find that person, and I had to face facts that I don't have one. But Heavenly Father gave me something better. A daughter...a sweet perfect incrediably adorable daughter!! Her sweet name is Jocelyn....How I love this girl, you'll never know. She's my everything, I adore her to the core. She's my sweet girl...so giving, so loving, cares about others, so ..my Jocelyn. But then Heavenly Father gave me 2 wonderful gift...he gave me a son and another daughter....so now not only do I have 2 beautiful girls in my life, but I get to give them the wonderful gift of having a sister!!! I told Jed that I would not stop having babies until my sweet girl had a sister!!

You NEED a sister I told him, something that I never had I wanted so desperately for Jocelyn. She is OF course in love with her sister, and I'm just loving the fact that I have these great girls in my life. These amazing people that I get to call my daughters. I am so incredibly lucky right now. Not only do I have these wonderful sweet girls, but I have such an incredible little boy (my other amazing gift, now needs a brother, we'll see) that loves his sisters to DEATH! =) (Bridger loves to hug Kate sometimes a LITTLE to tightly, but she doesn't mind most of the time. hehe)

...to my sweet babies.  Jocelyn, Bridger and Katelyn. May you ALWAYS remember that you are BEST FRIENDS, that you respect, and admire each other, that you remember each other in your prayers, and that you never lose sight of whats important. May you always be a blessing in each others lives that bring happiness and hope. I love you guys so much...Thank you for being MY babies!!

Love, Mommy!

KEEP The day after we came home from the hosptial...our first night by ourselves! *Updated*

Fourth Day:

Last night was really hard. I feel like I haven't slept in YEARS, I am in so much pain....I skipped a dosage of meds on accident...so now my body is paying for it.

But little Kate is eating so well!! Its been a family affair with eating, Jed gets up with her, brings her to me, turns on the lights, pillows, burp rags, blankets. Ugh...Katelyn and I have to get on track here.

Bridger and Jocelyn are still at grandma's and Uncle william's house, so its nice that we could have a night to figure it out.

My milk came in the morning, so much MILK! I forgot the feeling of boulders you get and the ache in your chest. I am so uncomfortable, I pumped only 2 ounces from each side to get some extra milk storage. But I still feel so engoraged. Hopefully only a few more days.

Jaundice is up to 15..ugh...I am nervous we are going to have to hospitalize her. They told me to keep nursing and that will help flush it out. I guess the fourth day is their peak day. I'm hoping it goes down. Tomorrow we have to go back to the hospital in the morning.

I wanted to take a picture day and I didn't take one. UGH. I feel awful about it, but will take one tomorrow. I am wanting to take a BILLION pictures of her, as I regret not doing so with Bridger or Jocelyn. Maybe I should just sneak and take one right now.

Pain wise, I'm still sore, but so much better, my ligament pain is still so sensitive right now. BUT I can walk and move around TONS better, I don't need Jed's help that much. Finally my Independence is coming back slowly but surley.

I tried the stupid Belly Bandit. It barley fits around my tummy, and its so not flattering, bludges all my fat rolls up and ugh...but Jed is making me wear it, finally in the afternoon I took it off to take a nap. I'm exhausted...I figure a day or two more won't hurt..or will it!?!?

My neighbors, Steph and Steff came and brought me dinner tonight, it was so thoughtful of them! Pizza with garlic bread and a salad. YUM!! Also our family came to visit Val, Stan, Karrie, Ben and my parents came to visit the baby today, it was soo sweet!! They were so wonderful and sweet about our baby. We are so fortunate to have such good family that is so supportive! They kept telling us how beautiful she was, and what parent doesn't like to hear that?!!?!? =)

We got bridger back tonight, we've MISSED HIM!! Little boy!! SOOOOO good with baby Kate, and so wonderful and sweet! Bridger is our personal baby monitor. 'Mom mom the baby is going "wah wah " like that. lol....So cute!! I think he is so excited to be home too. Our Jocelyn doesn't want to come home, she has been with her cousin and wants to stay there forever!! Little girl! Monday we will pick her up. WE miss her too!!

Going to BED!! Katelyn ate from both sides! GOOD GIRL and now Bridger is asleep, and its 2:26am. UGH...

The children's Museum Experince *Updated*

The Children Museum!!

This is a really cute Museum for kids that is located in SLC at the Gateway. We took Bridger and Jocelyn there over Spring Break!! Its a lot of fun, but its GO GO GO the whole time your there. Not a lot of sitting place, so not a very good place to go when your pregnant. We were there for 3 hours, and I was SOO exhausted by the end.  But the kids had fun!! Here is what we did:

This is Kaia, Jocelyn and Eddie

They upstairs you could make your own movies, be a weather forecaster, be the camera man,  News Anchor, it was so cute to watch the kids get so excited about being on TV. 

Jocelyn

This was on the main floor and you got to put Balls up in a vacuum that would take the balls way up in a pipe and then spit them out on the other side of the room. It was really cute and creative. Jocelyn loved it.

Keeping the "Monkey" on him was really hard because there is SO much to do there, but it was also so exhausting not to have it on him because the whole museum is like an open floor, so there are no walls, or doors, my mom was looking at Jocelyn for a second, and he was gone. He went to the third floor by himself!! Talk about the scariest 5 minutes of our lives. Thats one and only complaint I had with it, I thought we would be able to watch the kids play, but there was not sitting and watching, you were behind them 100% of the time playing with them, chasing them from here to there. Its three floors of just open space of creative learning stuff for kids. SOO awesome and fun, but you have to be prepared for it.

I am totally 8 months pregnant in this picture and yet it doesn't look like it, I just look like I gained a LOT of weight but not pregnant. I think that is so funny for some reason! I need to learn how to take pictures like this now with my tummy..how to prevent from looking like you have a tummy!

The shopping Mall was the cutest thing I've ever seen. The kids LOVED it there the most, and had a ball. It was so cute to see Ludwig (cousin) and Bridger shop and check out. It was so hard to get a cart, and when we finally did, it was so rewarding to watch them play.

Kaia and Jocelyn shopping together, and cashing out together as well. They were pretending that they were a bakery shop, and that they had to make all these cakes. SO CUTE!!

They had a building blocks area that was a lot of fun (and finally got to SIT DOWN) Bridger loved it and made this HUGE tower that fell, which made Abulieta SCREAM bloody murder which made EVERYONE look over at us. ..SO embarrassing!! lol. But we had a lot of fun. I would totally recommend going there when your not pregnant and wear really comfortable shoes. Your gonna be on the run.

For us it was a great place to visit, and I'm sure we will go again. The kids and a GREAT time, I am hoping for our next adventure, that we get to go to the Planetarium soon!! That seems like an awesome place to go.

Until next time!!

January 2008- First Blog Post

Blogging is the new rave around here. I have been having so much fun stalking others that they convinced me to start my own blog, so I can have my own stalkers. Also what a fun way to journal, share pictures, thoughts, and activities going on in your life.

This is ME: My name is Catherine Glazner- I am a wife, a mother, and LOVE to laugh! 

I have been married for 6 years to my wonderful husband Jed. We have 2 beautiful kids, We have Jocelyn that is going to be a BIG 5 year old in two weeks and we have our baby boy that just turned 16 months yesterday.

                                   Our crazy kiddos: Jocelyn and Bridger- Love those tiny faces.

We live in Utah, while Jed works as a Software Engineer, I am currently going to UVSC trying to finish my associates degree and graduate in April.

Here are some more pictures of our family- cause thats the great thing about blogs! They come with pictures!

 This is Bridger's Year old Birthday Party at chuck E. Cheese. They kept calling him BRET even after we correct them! Finally we just gave up and let them call him Bret!

 This is when Bridger was Three weeks old and Jocelyn was 4. She's so tiny and Bridger is my sweet Newborn.

 A Family Picture of us!

 Until next time
