update for mayishness and june

Well may came and gone.. nothing to spectacular going on in our world. Ok maybe there are a few things.... first off we figured out why our child has screamed in the car nonstop for 5 and 1/2 months (well it was 5 1/2 months at the end of april) anyways. The lady that does my hair in Farmington was telling me about a chiropractor in Layton that adjusts babies that come out of the birth canal wrong and or are yanked out of the birth canal (which Hadlee was by forceps). Anyways, I don't really believe in chiropractors, i think personally that its all hooblah that they can cure people with as little schooling as they have but i was seriously willing to try anything at this point. So i made the appointment and i took Hadlee in with my mom. The chiropractor assessed her spine and ran his 2 fingers down it waiting for her to jolt which would indicate a problem spot. He found nothing. So once again i was like "great, what a waste of time, i knew it was too good to be true." Well he then stripped her carseat material off and inspected the carseat and indeed there was a problem. The foam that runs down and is underneath the fabric on the carseat only went down part way which left a huge bulge at the end which dug right into her lumbar/tailbone area. He suggested that we pad it with foam when we get home and on the way home to pad it with diapers or something. He even suggested getting a different carseat so that hadlee didn't associate crying with the carseat that she has had since birth. Well, anyways when we got back to my moms house we padded it with felt and diapers so that i could make the trek home. Hadlee screamed the whole ENTIRE way home to provo. I was in tears when i got home because i had listened to her scream for an hour and fifteen minutes and i was at my wits end. I told andrew "well that was a waste, because obviously that was not the problem." Well the next day was a completely different story. I had a few errands to run, and i was dreading it because i try to avoid the car AT ALL TIMES because its so wearing with her screaming. I put her in her carseat and got in the car and left and i waited the 5 minutes which it usually takes for her to start screaming....nothing.... not a peep.... i looked in the mirror and she was asleep! I was completely shocked! Anyways to make a long story short, It has been like that ever since! SO HAPPY! She is seriously a much happier baby. Maybe month 5 was the magic number? we will never know. She is a very smart and funny baby as well. She now knows how to stick out her tongue and mimics it when another person does it. She is always laughing and smiling and just gah! So cute!! She is def a daddy's girl....she has andrews head, toes and lips. so fun! :)

Andrew has officially transferred schools since uvu royally messed everything up. They dropped all of his classes after he had registered on time, and claimed that it was just a "jolt in the system" and that there was nothing that they could do. So now andrew is not going to school for the summer semester because when he tried to register again at uvu before transferring to weber all of his classes were filled. yay go us. This always happens to us i swear. Every time we are so close to something so great (like graduation) Some "fluke" thing happens that was an "accident" or an "stupid oopsy."And yes i have spent many nights frustrated and crying because he was supposed to graduate in april 2014, but now it will be delayed until august 2014. I guess the reason i was so upset and still am upset is because i was looking forward to him being done with school so that we can get into a house and be established. But i guess heavenly father has a different plan? maybe?

May also was our 3year anniversary! We didn't really do anything spectacular... we went to dinner and to the driving range which was super fun, and a good stress reliever! here are some of our pics.
