Jordy's Birthday!

September 1st was my baby sister, Jordy's, birthday. She turned 11 and I can not believe how little she was. She weighted 3 lbs when she was born and was in NCIU for exactly one month. She was 9 weeks premature, and we almost lost my mom and Jordy. It was probably the scariest thing I had to face when I was younger.

It was really weird because this year on September first I found myself back in the ICU supporting Britt and my in-laws because Britt's grandma Sperry had open heart surgery on the 31st and she was in ICU for a few days. It was a coincidence that I was back in the ICU exactly 11 years later from the first time I had seen my sister. I hadn't been in there since Jordy was there.

For Jordy's birthday she had a swim party with her friends at my parents neighbor's house. My dad and Lyndsey had a ball game and Britt had school till 8 so it was just me and my mom and 5 little girls.


All Jordy has wanted for a long time was Roxy bedding for her bedroom. My mom didnt want to just go buy it for her so she waited for her birthday to give it to her. I think Jordy would tell you it was well worth the wait.

I think Jordy had a pretty good birthday. She got everything she had asked for and she got to spend it with her family.

We love her very much and are so thankful she survived her tough start. She has always been a little spit fire and she fought everyday for the first year of her life and I am so glad she did. She is the best baby sister anyone could have. I love her so very much!


As far as Grandma Sperry goes. She is doing GREAT!! She was home in less then a week after surgery. She is a trooper. Britt and I are so thankful to have her with us still and we are so glad our son will be able to meet Britt's grandma. We love Elma very much and are so very thankful to have her in our lives. She is an amazing woman and such a great example to everyone!

It's a BOY!

Last week we went in for my 20 week ultrasound and to find out what the baby is. It's a boy and I couldn't be more excited. Britt wanted a girl but I got my way and we are getting a BOY!!! We are going to name him Beckham Warner Sperry. Beckham after David Beckham (HAHA) jk after my Great Grandma Healey, her maiden name was Beck. Warner is my dad's middle name, and since he didnt have a boy to name after him I thought it would be nice to name his first grandson named after him. So the babies intitals will be B.W.S, and that is Britt's initials. So his name is full of meaning and I cant wait to get him here!

Over the last little bit we havent been doing much. Britt is going to school 2 full days and week and work 3 to 4 full days a week, and Im still getting use to my new job. It's been hard because Im still having all sorts of kidney stone crap. So our life has been full of doctor visits and spending money on stupid hospital bills, and school fees, but hey its our life and we wouldnt have it any other way.

New York Yankee's vs. Boston Red Sox

I just wanted to say way to go Yankees!!

Britt and I have a love hate relationship when it comes to our MLB teams. He is a die hard Red Sox fan and I am a die hard NY fan. It is probably the only major difference of opinion we have. We both like to brag about our teams when they are doing better then the other.

Well to night the 3 game series showed who the better team was and of course it was my New York Yankees!

The Red Sox may have beaten my team last night, but I had faith that my Yank's wouldnt let me down and they sure did do me proud. Go Yanks!

Update!!

Well this summer has been very interesting. June 1st I woke up very sick and figured I had a kidney infection so I went to the clinic to get checked but they wanted to rule out some other things first so they did a blood test and then sent me to my kidney doctor to have them check my kidneys. Well I went to the kidney doctor and I did have an infection so I just figured that was why I was sick well on my way home from the doctor I get a call from the clinic and Kristin told me I was pregnant!! I was in complete shock! A baby was not in the plans for a couple years! She wanted me to come back to see how far along I was. Well on my way to the clinic I decided I better call Britt and tell him. I get him on the phone and I asked him if he is sitting down. He was like ahhh yea why I blurted out "Im pregnant!" Britt was in shock he didnt know what to say. He came right home from work and we just were in shock to how and when? Well they did an ultrasound and told me I was 6 weeks and I was due on Jan. 26th.

Britt's birthday was June 26th and I wanted to get him something that he would never buy himself. So I decided I was going to get him a barbecue. A couple days before his birthday me and my mom went over and bought it and hid it at her house! For his birthday we decided to go to Goodwood for dinner with our families. Neither of our parents had been before. We went to dinner then came back to our apartment and had fruit pizza (Britt's Request). The next morning Britt was so excited to but his present together he got up at 7 am (on a saturday) and had it all put together before I even woke up.

For the 4th of July we didnt do much. My family was in Colorado with Lyndsey playing in a softball tournament and they wouldnt get back till sunday. We went down to my Grandpa Mark's cabin with my grandparents and had lunch. We wanted to go watch fireworks but we didnt want to fight all the traffic so we decided we would take the four wheelers on top of west mountain and watch them. We invited Jared and Becky, and Shayla and DB(nick). The fireworks were small but we enjoyed them and it was fun to get out and go do something with Britt's friends.

For my birthday I had been really sick for the 2 weeks before, so I want feeling up to much. My parents took us to dinner at Tempenyaki (my favorite) then we came back to our apartment and had Strawberry bunt cake, my favortie. Britt gave me a chi flat iron (I love it! they are best things ever), and my parents gave me fat people clothes (maternity). Shayla and Tyson gave me the best girl ever though! I collect babries and had seen the 50th anniversary barbie and really wanted it but I didnt think anyone would get it for me. To my surprise they got it! I was stoked! It is the best present ever!!!

For the 24th of July my parents were in Park City with Lyndsey at another softball tournament so we hung out at my Grandma Colleen's for the majority of the day. Britt had only been to the parade a couple of times but it was always on main street and really crowded areas. Well the Healey's have the luxury of watching it from my grandparents front yard and its fabulous. No one is around and we get to have breakfast and just relax. It was really nice. That afternoon my Grandpa Paul told us he was going to do the crane swing that he use to do when I was younger. I was excited cause I hadn't been on it sense I was a little girl and Britt had never experienced it. When they got it up to the house my uncle mike strapped Britt on before he knew what hit him and raised him to the top(5 floors, 50 feet)! What they didnt know was Britt is scared of heights. Britt loved it. By the time it was my turn I was to sick so I never got a chance to ride it but next year when Im not preggers I'll be the first!

We have had a really fun summer. I will try to keep everyone updated better. I'm not very good and posting updates! Sorry!

Easter, Weddings, State Tournament, and Moab!

We had our first Easter together this year. It was so fun to put a basket together for Britt and be able to share it with him. We didnt do one thing for Easter we just sat at home with each other and watched movies and enjoyed our day off together.
One of Britt best friends got married May 2nd and We were able to go and spend the day with them. It was the first time we had been back to the Salt Lake temple sense our wedding and it was very neat to be at a sealing that wasn't our own. Congratulations Brock & Jessica
We went to Moab with Britts parents, Tyson & Seth, and Britts Uncle Keiths family. It was a lot of fun. I had been to moab a number of times but it was always to go jeeping. I had never been there to do the hiking part. It was a lot of fun to drive around Arche's National Park. Im not a hiker so I didnt do to much of that but it was fun to spend the weekend with Britts family and see how he was raised. He has an awesome family and Im very excited to be apart of the family.

My little sister Lyndsey played in the 5A Softball state tournament this year. Britt & I hadnt gone to one game all season cause we had been busy with work. But we said we would go if she made it to state. Well we decided to go to the last couple games. She did awesome. She is so good at what she does. Spanish Fork ended up taking 3rd place but overall I think they were awesome and did the best they could with what they had! Good Job Lyndsey! We love you!
