Hey world
This is Ang
So yeah I have now reached the year mark on this sad little blog of mine. I am not going to apologize to anyone... its my own fault. But I am going to write a little list of the adventures we have had this last year as a family and maybe you will understand how crazy life has been.
January
Ang started school again.... 9 credits at Dixie State College (6 of those credits were upper division)
Orvil 9 months old cute as a button, finally sleeping through the night.
Tj working hard trying to find a descent job and also working hard finishing up our landscaping and working on our backyard.
February
Ang still working full time as a nurse, going to school full time, being a mom.
Orvil contracting the awesome illness RSV (probably from Daycare) and then being admitted to the hospital with dehydration and brochiolitis.
Tj Still working on our landscaping, and also running his own business.
March

Orvil still continually getting sick.... lots and lots of ear infections!!! UGh
April
Ang still in school full time. Accepted into the Bachelors of Nursing Program at Southern Utah University. Plan to start in May.
TJ getting alot of really good job interviews but not getting any call backs????
Orvil still frequently sick....can't figure out why.... lot's of ear infections!!
May
Ang starting the Bachelors Program at Southern Utah University, excited to finally start!!
Tj getting a good job with the city of St, George with their landscaping division working mostly at Southgate Golf Course!!!! Yeah!!
Orvil getting his like 7th ear infection referred to an ear, nose and throat doctor scheduled for surgery for tubes!!! Yeah Finally!!!
June
Orvil getting surgery. Baby finally getting better and not so sick.
Ang and TJ get to enjoy a week together without Orvil at Lake Powell. Yeah it was a much needed vacation. Mom was so burned out and tired she basically just slept the first three days of the trip.
July
Orvil still really sick can't figure out why, started an immunity work-up on him. Had to draw his blood one or two times every week for a month. Found some abnormal labs. Orvil had to get a CT scan with conscious sedation. Was found to have a massive sinus infection. We were referred to ear, nose, and throat. His sinus cavity was cultured and he was put on antibiotics.
Ang still in school full time even in the summer, working full time, and trying to take care of and be in charge of all of orvil's crazy medical needs.
Tj being a good dad. Working hard. Running around working two jobs.
Somewhere in the caos Ang and Tj sneak away to Florida for a few days. Much needed time for us as a couple.
August
Orvil..... we learn some bad news he has a really rare really bad bug growing in his sinus cavity. We may need to be referred to primary childrens medical center in SLC.
Ang had some girl problems..... will leave it at that
After a few really bad weeks in a row with Orvil being so sick Tj and I decide it would be best for me to begin working nights.
Ang needed to put school and work on the back burner and focus on her family and being a mom.
So I made the hard decision to work nights.... this was hard for me I had been on day shift in the same area for 4 years. I had to say good bye to alot of really good friends.
September
Orvil still sick.... our doctor in St. George consulted with an Infectious disease doctor at Primary Childrens and Orvil is started on a high dose strong antibiotic for 6 weeks. Ugh I am so sick of all of the medicine I have been having to give Orvil. He is such a little trooper he really has been through alot.
Tj and I really do love him alot..... for those of you who know him he is such a adorable sweet little boy. We love him so much.
October
Happy Halloween. I am planning to do a seperate post for that. Watch for it we really had fun this year!!!!
Tj turns 26 years old!
Ang is pregnant (yep I am going to blog about it) for those of you who don't know...we are going to have another little one in our lives. I am due May 25, 2011... its kinda funny because this is one day different than Orvil's due date.
We are very excited....even though I have been somewhat sick again.
So that about wraps up the last few months.... I am going to post a few things from this summer but I just had a few minutes today and I really wanted to update my blog.
Once again I fill like I have alot to be grateful for.
I also wanted to say thanks to all of those who have been helping our little family this year especially for all of those who have been praying for Orvil.
Thanks it means alot
