I wanted to take a quick second and make a shout out to someone.
This past week we were visited by St. Patrick who found the leprechauns pot of gold and left it on our front door step, we have ABSOLUTELY no idea who it is or if they will ever read this, but thank you vary much.
Today Michaella, Abbey and Rusty had their Dr. Appts
Michaella's stats:
wt. 24.2 lbs. 25th %
ht. 34.5 in. 50th%
hc. 46 cm 25th %
meaning : tall, skinny and in perfect health
Abbey's stats:
wt. 14.3 lbs. 25th%
ht. 24.5 in. 10th%
hc. 41cm. 25%
meaning : on the shorter side, just like her mommy
Rusty's stats:
wt. 14.5lbs. 3rd%
ht. 25 in. 10th%
hc 41 cm. 10th%
meaning : Rusty is officially bigger than siser (that's how we say it here, it's not a typo)
but he is our little bean. I do have to get an ultrasound of his hips because he has asymmetric folds ( the folds in his thighs and his butt crack don't line up evenly) they just want to check for hip dysplasia. The Dr. said that if there are any problems we did catch it early enough we can fix it with no problems at all. Good news! So we'll see, I'll keep ya posted.
Tonight I made another milestone ...... I BATHED BOTH THE TWINS TOGETHER BY MYSELF !!!!!!! Yeah for me, I haven't done this yet just because I was nervous, but everything went well.
BIG NEWS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I found somebody whom I am ABSOLUTELY in love with to do my hair :)
It's Mike's cousin that did such a great job. I went to another place ( that I have never done before - I've stayed with the same person for ever ( and now is to busy to see me ) and I don't trust people to do my hair) and that place didn't do it right so a week later I went back to have them fix it and they messed it up again GRRRRR. I really don't have the time to mess with this crap from stupid incompetent people. So I was just going to deal with it, but I saw her again a few days ago and she said she'd help me and ...... SHE FIXED IT !!!!! I think it looks great and it feels great I'M SOLD !!!!!!!! If anybody needs a great stylist for a great price CALL ME!!
Seriously, I am so excited and relieved AAAAAHHHHHHH
Other than that everything is the same here, I can't wait for spring so we can go play outside with the kids. I LOVE BEING A MOM!!!!!

Miss Michaella Mae Wynder
On March 6, 2007 at 11:44 am weighing in at 7lb. 12 oz. our beautiful little Michaella Mae Wynder joined our anticipating family ( considering she was only 6 days late!)
The day we went in for the ultrasound was such a great day. I was dressed in all pink, when found out I was pregnant I bought Mike a pink tie. I really wanted a girl once I found out I was getting a girl I was SO excited. I was finally getting my Michaella. I have always loved that name and I couldn't wait to have her here. She was such a wonderful addition to our family.
And now our little girl is just that a growing girl. She is the sweetest, caring and most compaspasionate sister. When ever anybody cries she is the first to run to help or see what she can do to help make them feel better and give binkies.
We our SO greatful to our Heavenly Father for intrusting his most precious to Mike and I to raise and teach.
A little about Michaella: She love to read, and color, she love when her hair is done pretty and loves to hear her church shoes making "click click" noises like mommy's shoes. She loves to swing and play outside. She is our little sweetheart.
I never could have imagined how much fun I would have being a mom.
Michaella is a very special addition to our family! She is our little mommy.
Michaella you are very special to Mommy and Daddy! You have a very soft swwet voice and the cutest, sweetest disposition. WE LOVE YOU !!!!!
As a side note we are having some difficulties with our computer right now but I will post pictures for Michaella soon.

MILESTONES !!!
Well, here we are March 1st. 2 years ago today was Michaella's due date, and now look at us a family of 4. This weekend we have hit some substancial milestones in our family. A little bit of history first though : Max and Michaella started sleeping through the night at 2 weeks ( and in their own rooms) due to the help of a book BABYWISE by Gary Ezzo. I HIGHLY SUGGEST !!!!!!! ok off my rampage. The babies turned 6 months old yesterday - Can you believe it I sure can't.
It all started Friday night ( well long before that, but to keep it kind of short we'll start it then.) Abbey and Rusty slept in their own cribs in Max and Michealla's rooms. Max and michaella were extatic that they were now going to being sharing rooms. Abbey is such a little squirmer that she would hit her head on the wall and cry and wake Rusty up and that would just cause a night full of problems. Up until now the babies were sleeping in our room - we got a banquet table and put it between our bed and the wall and put the crib mattress on it. So that's where they were sleeping. So back to Friday night Mike and I had a little chat with M&M and told them that they were going to start sharring rooms now and Rusty and Abbey were going to wake up and when they do we all M&M need to do is turn over and fall back asleep. We talked about this for quite a while untilthey really understood it. That night the babies did wake up a few times and M&M did exactly what they were tought to do, turn over and go back to sleep. Last night ( Saturday night) we put the babies to bed at 10ish and they SLEPT ALL NIGHT LONG!!!!!!! They haden't done that for about 3 months because they were sick. Now they are all better, happy and sleeping much better. WHAT A RELIEF
The other milestone we are having is Abbey is sitting up all by herself, Rusty isn't there just yet but he is awefully close. I will have to get a picture and post it this week.
Tonight ( sunday ) we took a drive and saw the new Draper Temple and we had a wonderful time. We decided to go on a Sunday evenibg because on weekdays is the open house and traffic is crazy. We listened to the primary songs as we drove and it melted my heart to hear Max and Michaella singing I am a Child of God. And they both really were singing the words. I felt the spirit today stronger than i had felt in a long time most of that being that I was able to go to church and then being able to see the temple. We are truely blessed to live where we do. As we were sitting at the Temple we were looking out and we could see the Jordan River Temple and the entire valley and to think what it looked like when Brigham Young arrived - can you just imagine. I sure can't! I just want to say how blessed I am to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I love my my Heavenly Father and I am very greatful for everything He has blessed me with, expecially my wonderful sweetheart Mike and my children. I am so blessed to have all 4 healthy and here with me, they teach me so much everyday. I can't wait for our family to grow ( and yes we do want to more ) and to be able to teach them the gospel and about our Heavenly Father.

Family Pictures
Again yesterday I had to take the babies into the doctors, they are doing a bit better even though we only got 3 hours of sleep last night. But who's counting? Just out of curiosity sake I weighed both of them and I am elated and shocked. Abbey now weighs 14 
lbs 6oz and Rusty weighs 14 lb. 7.5 oz can you believe it? He passed her up, don't get me wrong that;s the way it is suppose to be but man am I excited especially how concerned I was that breastfeeding just wouldn't be enough. WHAT A RELIEF !!!

WHAT A RELIEF !!!January 16th we had our family and blessing pictures taken and here they are.
Sorry they aren't the best quality I had to scan them into the computer - stupid copy right laws. I mean come on help the little guy out a bit. 
And there are my cute as buttons babies. and they are getting bigger everyday. I am SO blessed that my dreams have come true and the Lord has entrusted Mike and I to take care of his most prised posessions. I just can't believe how fast time flies by. It seems like it was just yesterday I found out I was pregnant with Max and now he's 3.

Still Here
Well it's been a long time since I've posted (obviously). We have had one of those months. We had family pictures taken. I'll try to get those on here, but I'm not sure exactly how without breaking copyright laws (stupid in my opinion).
Just after my last post is when things began to fall apart. Everybody in the house got sick I got it twice one right after the other, just as I was getting over it KABAM I got it again. Max and Michaella got it but it wasn't so bad for them. The bad cases were the babies, Abbey got it the worst and is still not totally over it we took her to the Doctors to be tested for RSV thank heavens it came back negative,but we were able to take her up to Primary Childrens to have my mom suction her ( just as they would if she were addmitted) . The only down fall about that is my parents were in HAwaii for two weeks - bummer for them I know - Oh well they deserve it.
Anywhoo, so everybody was sick and now we are all starting to get better and just trying to find things to do to pass the winter time away. Max and Michaella are going stir crazy understandably so. Michaella's new favorite thing is to lay on her tummy under the computer desk and color on anything and everything. I swear girls just love to do things like that, Max doesn't care about that all to much. Thanks to our wonderful new Primary president (we had such a great chat) has really helped me to learn and know about how boys are so different and how to help Max. She suggested some books and I'm getting them from the library so I'll let ya klnow how they are. Max will play with his cars and plains for hours - he just loves them. They both have such a wonderful imagination and that just makes me so thankful that they have each other to play with. I will try to take some pictures of them, it's so cute. Abbey and Rusty are getting better slowly but surely. When we took Abbey to the Doctors I weighed her and she is already a whopping 14 pounds even. I didn't weigh Rusty but he's not far behind. Today my mom and I are going to be making our yearly sugar cookies and I'm thinking it's going to be the first time I'll let Max make his own, I'll give him a ball of dough and we'll see what happens. He's gotten really good at cleaning up his messes - to a certain degree - He really likes to help me clean. Maybe we can even go sledding this weekend and get some cute pictures.
I'm sorry it's been so long since I've posted, but no I think I'm back on tract.

Short and Sweet
This week was a crazy one. We took Max and Michaella to the eye Doc. to get their eyes examined. All is ok there but, the appointment toook 2 hours MAN that was hard. At least it was at Primary's so they had all different kinds of toys and movies so that made it a lot esier. Then on Wednesday I took Abbey and Rusty for their 4 month well child appointments.
Abbey weighs 12 lb. 12.5 oz
Rusty wieghs 12lb. 7.5 oz.
The babies are getting so big. We all have a cold right now and resulting nobody is getting any sleep.
Mike starts school again on Monday. IT'S THE LAST SEMESTER !!!!!! Mike still has to take Chemestry, Physics and their labs, but he has to graduate first or he'll excede the credits for graduation and get smacked with HUGE fines and he won't be able to graduate. So we will deal with those later. He wan't to take those just before the MCAT exam so they will be fresh in his mind.
My parents are leaving for Hawaii for 2 weeks again this comming saturday for the 3rd time. They deserve it.
There is something I'd like to say that I am very excited about....
Just about 10 minutes ago I regestered my brother for INSTITUTE !!! I am very excited about this. If any of you kow my brother he isn't very strong in the church at this time in his life. He's gone through a very hard time the last few years. He has started to go to church again. He went to the student ward and a member of the bishop bric ( whp happened to be in my parents ward) told him that he couldn't go because that wasn't the right ward for his boundries. I COULD HAVE KILLED HIM!!! It was the 3rd time Mark has gone to church in about 2 years. I was SO mad. I'm really excited for him. He needs to make friends who are LDS and who re his same age.
I'll keep ya posted on how everything goes.

Welcome 2009
Well it is already January 4, 2009. And I haven't blogged nearly as much as I would like. I am trying to blog more... really I am.
Christmas was wonderful for us. For the first time we had Christmas with just our little family. Christmas Eve we went to Mike's parents for dinner and gift exchange. Christmas morning we stayed home and opened our gifts and stockings from Santa and each other. It went by WAY to fast. This is the first year Max REALLY understood Santa. It was completely amazing to see the true beauty of the innocence of a child not only a child, but your own. Michaella didn't really understand, but we did see Santa on the 22nd and We said that santa will be comming to our house while we are asleep, and I think she may have caught on. We tried to teach the kids the true meaning of Christmas, but as young as they are we did our best. The main points we tried to enforce were: That we are celebrating the birth of Jesus that Santa represents the 3 kigs that brought gifts to Jesus and it is more important to give than recieve. Try to get an 3 and almost 2 year old to understant that one. Although Max was more excited to help Michaella, Abbey and Rusty open their gifts and play with them. I couldn't say enough about how wonderful our Christmas REALLY was. That afternoon we went to my parents house and had brunch and opened gifts there as well. Max asked if Santa had come there too because they got spoiled ROTTEN by my brother.
For New Years we went to some friends house and had a party. It was HUGE the kids actually made it until midnight ... in fact they made it until 3 am not by any choice unto their parents. They had so much fun playing that it took until 3 to get them settled down enough to where they would stay asleep. We had a blast, it was really nice to enjoy some adult company.
For our New Years Resolutions:
Every year Mike and bring in the new year together, kiss (of course) and make a tost to each other when we are home and everyone is settled in. This year just as all the previous we tost to Health, Wealth ( in our family and friends) and I think in the past we said posterity instead of prosperity. This year we made that correction and we are hoping to wait until at least next june (2010 ) to get pregnant. But we aren't crossing our fingers so don't you either. We also tosted for the first time to change. This year we are expecting a lot of new change. In the years before we haven't had much change except for the kids of course. But this year we are expecting a lot more. Mike will be graduating in May with his BS in Health Promotion and Educationn. Max Will turn 4, Michaella will be 2 in March, Abbey and Rusty will be 1. Wow I can't even believe i am saying that.
Another First for us happened today... MY BABY BOY MAX WENT TO PRIMARY FOR THE 1ST TIME!!!!!!! And i am home sick with sick babies and missed it. He did really well, we have been talking about this day for 2 weeks and really pumped up the energy yesterday. He was very concerned about what would happen to Michaella. We assured him that she would be in nursery playing with her friends and he can pick her up after primary was over.
We are wishing everyone a Health, Wealthy and Wise new year!!!
