<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">But I LOVE IT!! I live for adventure, doing things differently, and shooting for my dreams...</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I am horrible at keeping my friends and family updated with everything going on. I have many reasons for this but this is the just of it :-)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Husband - Yes he is in super busy mode as well ... and he loves it too! He is so amazing... and I am so lucky to have him. He keeps me on my toes though. Tonight he is playing basketball... so I decided to take a few minutes to blog... HOORAY!! I swear tho he is what keeps me in line with everything I have going on... the days when I need encouragement he gives it, the days where I need to be brought into reality... he brings me. He is my perfect balance... Thank goodness because lately I need a lot of balancing!! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Larkyn - She is in dance and is learning and growing up so fast right now. It is amazing how much she has gone from the baby stage to being a little girl. Actually tonight she wrote some gibberish on a sticky note and handed it to Logan and told him to text it to me. Ha! Who does that? It made my night tho! She is my goob! Love her more than she will ever know. So I am thinking about putting her in swim lessons this summer? She will be 3... is this too young? Do I wait another year? Any good places? She tells me she wants to go to school all the time... and she is obsessed with buses! Anytime she sees a bus she has to tell me all of the colors. The other day she saw a UTA bus and was so confused. She asked about the kids and where they were going... I had to explain the difference to her... But I am not sure if she got it. Eh.. it was a funny conversation and that is all that matters. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">(In case everyone wonders why I blog Oaklee first... its because she was my baby A so I just go in order... weird huh) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Oaklee - this little girl is going to be the one who makes me go gray. She is so rambunctious and into everything! She does things impulsively too! She is not shy at all! She makes me laugh... she will tell you a million baby stories all day. She likes to tickle or tackle Carea... it's quite comical too. Her big smile melts my heart... She has such a pure laugh too. She is crawling and standing up next to anything that she can pull herself up on. I feel like she is going to be walking soon. She gets afraid when tossed into the air, but she loves to be upside down....</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Carea - Mommy's little girl. I am glad I got one because Larkyn and Oaklee are both daddy's girls. Carea is my pure hearted baby. She is a deep thinker too! It is so funny to watch her watch people or things to figure it out. You can see the wheels spinning. She isn't crawling but her methods of travel include scooting on her bum or her belly. Her and Oaklee are extreme opposites. Carea loves to be tossed into the air and gets super tense when upside down. So weird! Even their toes, noses, hands.... it's all different. I think they both have a good mixture of Logan and I... Just opposite eachother. Carea has attitude lately... especially when she is eating... she will spit her food at me and just laugh... I try not to laugh so I don't encourage her... she is just too darn cute to be mad at. Anyone who knows me knows I can't keep a serious face. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Me - What do you want to know? I get asked a million questions about everything. I am a working wife, mommy, friend... There are days I feel like I do too much... But like I said before I love it! This is the stuff that gives me my drive in life. If I don't have a million projects I am bored. That is so weird right? I don't know how to relax. I need some clones that can process my thoughts and just go go go :) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">So I went to LA for my business and that was an adventure that I will have to share another day. It will be A GREAT first chapter in my book haha! It was unbelievable how things fell into place... but they did. I am still doing a lot on the business side of things... I need to make sure I have everything perfect so I get it right. I did choose a name "Sapphire Mango Clothing Company" thanks to a neighbor who submitted it for the competition I held. I got some great contacts there and feel like the events that happened are going to push me into the right direction. One thing that I have really had to remember is that I am not the one in control here. There is a plan... and it will fall into place. Questions? Just ask. If I trust you enough I will let you in... :-)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Good news on temple pics I have done. I am going to be giving the digital files away for free.. YES FREE! You can print where ever you like! I know I charged a few people last summer... and I am sorry... but You still got an amazing deal. I hope there aren't any bad feelings over this. BUT I am giving them to the church as well to use however they would like so I figured I would just give them to anyone who asks. Just shoot me an email or call me... It might take me a few days to get them to you but I will do it! As I travel I will continue to take pics of the temples for the Church and I will keep those images updated as well. Tell your friends and family too! It is so important for everyone to have some sort of temple pic in their home... even if its not where you were sealed. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Each day is wild for me right now. I get up around 5 am every day and stay up til 11 or later most nights. I love that I have such a wonderful husband who is so supportive and with me to the end on this journey. My house is a wreck most days and I don't care! Come on over and see for yourself. Sometimes I am embarrassed but other times I am not. We are humans and we live in our home. haha! I love my calling at church. I am the visiting teaching supervisor so I kind of get to work with the sisters in our ward again. It is great for my schedule too! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I know this post was random... but that is my brain these days... just random. I just want everyone to know how much I appreciate all the love, support, and words of encouragement I get from you... it really means a lot. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">And to those who want to crush my dreams... I say "suck it" - no really but if you don't have anything nice to say... don't say anything at all. Thanks Thumper! </span><br />

Maybe you knew... maybe you didn't... muahahahaha! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">1- Lucky number 1? My favorite digits are 3, 7 or 13. I have a thing for odd numbers! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">2- Speaking of having a thing ... I have a thing for squares </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">3- Color - I am a lover of color! I love blues - almost any shade BUT I believe in pink and there is no shame in that!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">4- Believe in Pink? Yes when I lived in Florida and when I was much much thinnner I was told I resembled Audrey Hepburn... ALL THE TIME! I didn't know who she was... about 10 years ago I discovered this feminine and fashion icon. She is stunning! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">5- I am a horrible blogger! I always say I am going to be better... but anyone who knows me understands how busy I am :-)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">6- Busy? I am a busy wife, mother, friend, business owner, church going woman who can't ever pass up an adventure, craft or start a fun new hobby!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">7- I am currently working my way into the fashion industry... maybe one day I'll blog about that. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">8- I fell in love with photography years ago. My first film camera was hot pink! I think I was 6 when my mom bought it... she probably had no idea that I could go through so much film. Thanks technology for revolutionizing this industry. I actually have a love for film photography... it's genuine and hard to fake. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">9- I believe in FATE and that there are no coincidences in life. The people we meet and the things we do everyday shape us into who we are. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">10- I am great with names... It probably scares people sometimes when I remember their names... but it is one of my talents</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">11- I love having friends! Not necessarily a lot of them but good, real friends. If I feel that having you in my life would be beneficial then chances are.... we are friends. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">12- ah Friends - I miss my friends in Florida. I met some of the most genuine people there... and they all helped me find .... me. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">13- I would love to travel the world.... to see beautiful cities and to meet beautiful people of other cultures. I love it when I see others kissing each others cheek when they greet them... would that be weird if I started that? I guess consider that the warning. haha. If I ever try kissing your cheek you know why. :-)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">14- I wish I knew how to play the piano and the guitar </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">15- I LOVE to sing in my shower or in my car ... really really loud. I totally rock it too! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">16- A part of me is a science geek... I am pretty sure this comes from my dad. ha! I love the science behind how things are made and I love the outcome. One day I will hang a periodic table of elements in my house... framed! ha!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">17- I am a middle child... if and only if you count all the offspring from my father. If not then I am the baby. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">18- I am sarcastic</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">19- I am an optimist... Logan is a realist... sometimes he has to bring me back to reality!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">20- I love vintage phones... for whatever reason. Maybe it's the cord... or the fact that they look freakin' cool!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">21- I am proud of you if you are still reading this post...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">22- Cowgirl by day... city girl by night</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">23- A VERY big part of me... the dreamer part thinks it would be awesome to be a spy... or a CIA field agent... I love watching Mission Impossible, Mr. and Mrs. Smith... or any other movie that is spy action packed! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">24- I don't know how to decorate. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">25- If I had all the time and money I would do a million crafts or remodel projects</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">26- I am LDS... No I wasn't raised in the church but I am grateful for the path that I chose when I was 15 that brought me where I am today. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">27- I love it when people play with my hair. Sometimes I will have Larkyn brush it... that is one benefit of having so many girls. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">28- I love old Ford Mustangs... I really really want to buy one! My very fist date was in one of these... and she was a beauty. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">29- Do you think I will make it to 100? I don't know if I am that interesting. Maybe this was a mistake...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">30- I recently found out that I love to iron clothes... not that I have much time... BUT if I did I would most likely iron EVERYTHING. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">31- Running is fun... its my release. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">32- I am so in love with my hub... he is amazing! I don't know how I snagged such a great guy ... he puts up with a lot from me. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">33- I always forget to wear my retainer</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">34- I love painting walls... I have painted our house twice in the 6 years we have lived here.... live and learn. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">35- I want to have an amazing yard... and backyard. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">36- I can't bake to save my life. Logan always teases me about the first batch of cookies I made him when we were dating... I mixed up baking soda with baking powder... No Bueno. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">37- I love stripes</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">38- At this moment I am thinking about painting my desk... white? blue? or yellow? hmmm.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">39- I have a disorder... anytime I see cute fabric or stationary I have to buy it! I have a 2 huge totes in my basement of just fabric... piles randomly placed in my house... and there is probably some in my car. I swear I have plans for all of it too! :-)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">40- I have always had a crush on George Clooney... I don't have a poster of him in my closet or anything... (ok maybe I do) ... he is just attractive. Don't deny it... YOU think so too!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">41- Celebrities? I adore Zooey Deschanel. When I got bangs everyone made fun of me for wanting to be like her... I was so embarrassed at first... but then I decided that I was over it. ha!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">42- I love to compliment people</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">43- Meeting strangers is fun too</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">44- I have officially decided I am only going to 50 here</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">45- I cry when I think about my girls... I cry a lot. Most of the time they are happy tears but when I get nervous or frustrated I cry. Back to my girls... They all have a very special place in my heart. They are all so different, talented, beautiful. It hurts my feelings when people say mean things about them only because they are my girls. I usually don't dwell on it... but sometimes I will catch myself tear up when they talk about how big their heads are, or how tall they are... so weird right. Well... enough about that...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">46- I love to shop.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">47- I dream of having an organized home</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">48- Chili's chip and salsa... hands down my favorite thing to munch on... that and chocolate. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">49- I love to watch tv with my hub... it's nice to sit down and relax together... even if the dishes haven't been done</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">50 - oh man... what to end with?? This is weird that I did this right... ?? My original plan was to go to 100... but I have a few things to do before I hit the sack... maybe one day I finish here. Oh I know... #50: I say y'all. :-)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> </span>love birds and a few chickletshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09168861652619499976noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156011087247471120.post-60037171814962890682012-02-14T20:46:00.000-08:002012-02-14T20:47:29.448-08:00Healthy update ...<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I have had so many people asking me about the diet that my Dr. has me on so I figure I will give everyone a quick update. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">In case you missed it I am on the Paleo or Leptin Diet. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I was put on this diet for health concerns and to achieve over all health. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">There are so many recipes out there for this.. just google it (I google everything haha) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">First weekend I lost 6 lbs and felt a huge difference regarding my energy and just how my body felt. I think in the last post I wrote about how I am very aware of my body. Anyway...</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">As of today (2.5 weeks after starting) I am down 16 lbs. I know that doesn't seem healthy but I eat... a lot! I have even treated myself to a lot of dark chocolate and chilis chips and salsa (ssshhh don't tell). I honestly just think my body had so many toxins stored up that it is just working like crazy to get rid of all of it.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Now... I know a lot of people ask me if this has been an easy adjustment and I will tell you that for the most part it has. The first few days I did great! I felt great and didn't really have cravings... well going into the first week and a half and this week it has been harder. I knew this challenge would come but I have such a sweet tooth so for me it is inevitable haha! There have been days (like today) where I have felt weak and maybe I just didn't get enough calories or something but really I think what it has to do with is my body is still making huge adjustments! Days like today I tend to eat more dark chocolate and I tend to want to eat carbs. I know these feelings and cravings will go away after a couple more weeks... So if you do decide to try it... STAY STRONG! YOU WILL SEE RESULTS AND FEEL SO MUCH BETTER! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Other noticeable changes: </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I feel happier as a human. I have always been happy but lately I don't seem to get as stressed and if something is bothering me it takes a lot for my patience to wear. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">My hair seems thicker and growing fast! (like it could get any thicker... right??)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">My skin isn't nearly as dry as it has been and my lips have started producing natural moisture... I don't use nearly as much chapstick. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I don't seem to sweat as much. TMI right? well I am a sweaty gal and lately this problem has been reduced... SIGNIFICANTLY :) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I am sure there have been many more changes but my mind is off tonight. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">If you have any questions let me know... I am happy to help answer any!!</span><br />

I try not to blog about too many of my problems... where's the fun in that right?? </div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
This time its different... a little bad but nothing terrible... MOSTLY GREAT tho!</div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
So since I had my girls I haven't quite felt like myself... It's hard to explain exactly how I have been feeling but I just knew something was off. I am very aware of my body. </div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Here is what life has been like... </div>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">tired a lot, brittle hair, anxiety, restless nights, sometimes my heart would hurt, I couldn't lose weight no matter what I tried, and several other little things. Everyone would just tell me its because I'm a mom, I try to do too much, I have twins, and my age... No it was more than that. I could tell something needed to change. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">So after months and months of trying to become healthy and failing I decided to see a Dr. I honestly thought my thyroid was out of wack or something. Reading online (which isn't always the best :) I had all the symptoms for hypothyroidism. I am not one that likes to just go to the Dr. So keep that in mind. I appreciate modern day medicine for a lot of things, but I often feel like too many Dr's just push prescriptions instead of finding a solution. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Well at my initial appointment we went over how I have been feeling. How discouraged I was getting. He decided to draw some blood and run several tests. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I went back this last Friday to go over my results. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Thyroid fine... Great news! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Vitamin D low (like most Utahns), bad cholesterol high, good cholesterol low, and sugars way too high... my pancreas was working way too hard. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">So he decided to put me on a pretty strict diet. I wanted to scream!! Really a diet?!?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">But after he started explaining everything to me it made sense! Holy shmokes!! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I needed to reset my fat thermostat! Catchy right?!?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">So I started his plan Friday... 3 days ago at lunch time. Since then I have lost over 6 lbs and I am starting to feel better than ever!! I have more energy! I feel happier!! I can already feel my body getting rid of all the toxins. My heart doesn't beat like its going to explode... my anxiety has come down... It really is working!! For me it's not just about losing weight... it's about feeling and being healthier. BUT hey if you want to lose a few extra lbs this will work for you :)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">It's amazing how food affects everything in our bodies. It can throw all of our hormones off which will throw everything else off. Even if one thing is off the slightest bit it will affect us. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">So you are probably wondering what the secret is... And I will share! Keep in mind that everyone's body is different and our needs are different as well. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">A lot of what I am eating follows the Paleo Diet. I had never heard of this until Friday. BUT my Dr did change a few things for me because of my needs. Honestly before starting a diet you really should consult with your Dr. Anyway... you can look up Paleo diet. If you need help I will gladly sit down with you and go over all of it or you can call my Dr. and he will do the same for you. One of the things that I was impressed with is that he didn't just try to prescribe things to "fix" me... he really sat down and evaluated my body's needs. Oh and the whole grain thing... well for me right now I'm not eating any. I go back in 3 months and we will evaluate everything again. Eventually I will be able to bring grains back into my life... but I will not overdue it </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Oh and something interesting is that my whole egg incident a month ago was most likely because of grains. So he challenged me to eat eggs again. I think it will be a while before I do that... I am scared to get that pain again. BUT when I do it will be interesting to see what happens. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Here is what I eat. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">A LOT of meat and veggies. Low sugars so only 1 or 2 pieces of fruit each day. NO Grains, NO sweets. Well I have been treating myself to dark chocolate at the end of each day to kind of reward myself. Plus dark chocolate is safe to eat! :) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">There are some simple things to do as well. Like taking 10 deep breaths every hour and a few others. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">It's all about our bodies being too stressed because of what we eat and our every day stresses contributing. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">If you want more specific details let me know. I don't really have the time to blog about every little thing... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">BUT it really is a new day! </span><br />

Larkyn and I decided to go shovel some walks today... (do I totally sound like a Utahn?? haha!) </div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
It turned into a mini session of her! AND she loved every minute of the picture taking!! It's been a while since I took and edited some pictures of my own child... it was sooo fun! I think I'll do this more often :) </div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
So a little bit about Larkyn... </div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
She loves water! To play in it that is!! Anytime she sees a puddle she has to jump in it to make a splash. Well today was perfect for that since the snow was so wet and is melting super fast! </div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Enjoy!!</div>

I have some high hopes of going on a vacation this year! I could really use one now :) I am not ready for winter and I don't think I will ever be. Logan and I were talking about trying to go to Hawaii sometime in the next year (ish) and right now that is what is on my mind!! I keep looking at beach houses, beach colors... really anything to do with the beach: sand, water, snorkeling, surf, sand castles... its on my mind. </div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
So I decided to put together an outfit for my current dream. </div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
I don't know what it is about blue accessories... I honestly love blue. Blue Blue Blue. All shades... its such a fun and relaxing color. </div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Oh and in case you haven't heard... gold is in! Not only gold, but mixing metals. So we can mix patterns and metals now... wahoo!! :) </div>
<div style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Enjoy!! </span><br />

Yep its official... she is potty trained!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; text-align: center;">
There were a lot of blood, sweat and tears that went into this so it made the cut for blogging :)</div>

I never thought this day would come... I think most of our family felt the same way because of how strong willed Larkyn is and how she absolutely refused to go on the potty. The Monday after Thanksgiving... I was determined! It is so ridiculous how expensive diapers are especially when 3 kids are in them! Sheesh!! </div>

My mom suggested bribery... Some parents are probably against this... BUT for me it worked!! I headed to the dollar store and picked out tons of little toys that I new she would love and then I went and got the ultimate prize for her... The Rapunzel Barbie doll... she has been dreaming of having her own since she spotted it at a friends birthday party this last summer. Monday morning I sat her down and I showed her all of her prizes and I told her that every time she went on the potty she got a prize, BUT (now this is key people) if she had any accidents she got all of her prizes taken away and put back on the shelf for an entire day! You better believe she caught on quick!! The first day was great and she got most of her prizes, but day 2 was harder and there was an accident so you better believe I took them away. Day 3 came and it was perfect except 1 thing... she hadn't done the "number 2" on the potty yet. This was the big one and I new it would be a challenge so we were holding Rapunzel hostage until this big event happened. Well on that glorious day 3 it did happen! Hooray!! She has had a few accidents and yes I am still taking her prizes away when she does. She is learning fast! She will even go and get her prizes if she has an accident and tell me to put them on the shelf. LOL. Thankfully this has only happened a few times. </div>

I can't believe how big my little girl seems now. She is growing up so fast. We are considering putting her in dance maybe mid January so she is looking forward to that!! </div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">My twins are 6 months old! Now that is crazy!! It feels like these 2 came into our lives yesterday... and to think its been a year since we found out we were having twins. I will never forget that day. I was so overwhelmed with the thought of having twins... I was emotional, stressed, nervous, excited, scared... you name it and I felt it! That anxiety carried with me for a long time BUT now I love the adventure!! Having 2 babies really isn't that bad!! (I wish I would have listened to my neighbors tell me that I would be ok and saved myself all the worry lol) They are great babies though and maybe that makes all the difference and I promise we have had our share of bad days but I honestly couldn't imagine our lives without these 2 little girls! Larkyn adores them too! I love it when she calls them stinkers! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Oaklee & Carea <span style="font-size: xx-small;">(Cuh-ray-uh it is <b>not</b> pronounced like Korea)</span> couln't be more opposite! They even look sooo different! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Above in the picture of them together Carea is on the left and Oaklee is on the right. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">We have really tall and chunky kids! I love it!! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><b>Oaklee</b> (baby A) - She is so funny! She already army crawls everywhere! She is always on her tummy and on the move... I swear she can't hold still for 2 seconds. Even when she sleeps she is constantly moving. She has rolls upon rolls. I should take a close up picture of her legs... I am pretty sure they even have some cellulite on them! Her face is narrower and long, she has slightly smaller eyes (like her daddy), she has a bigger mouth and bigger ears. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Her 6 month stats are: 27 inches, 16 lbs 7 oz, and her head is 43.75 cm. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><b>Carea</b> (baby B) - She is always making weird sounds... almost like she belongs in Star Trek or something! She doesn't like her tummy so she doesn't really get around. I honestly think because of her hemangioma on her head she is uncomfortable on her tummy. I think she bumped it a few times or something. Anyway... so she spends a lot of time in a bumbo or jumper. She is chunky.. but its definitely more solid than Oaklee! Not a lot of rolls, she is just thick haha! Her face is rounder (like mine), she has bigger eyes and she has a smaller mouth! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Her 6 month stats are: 26.75 inches, 16 lbs 12 oz, and her head is 43.5 cm. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Both girls have gained over 11 lbs since they were born and have grown 10 inches! I never thought my premie girls would have grown this fast! They laugh at everything and they both love to watch Larkyn. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I love all of my girls! Life is great!! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Life gets hard when there is a 2 year old and 2 babies. I don't care who you are and what the circumstances are... it gets tough. Emotionally, physically, spiritually, mentally, financially ... it's a lot of work. I am very fortunate to have a supporting and hard working hub, an energetic 2 year old, 2 great babies AND EVERYONE ELSE AROUND ME... MY FAMILY, MY FRIENDS, MY NEIGHBORS, STRANGERS... All these people I LOVE! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">There have been so many times where I have been spread so thin, or overwhelmed, or just tired... to then have a knock on my door from someone who is willing and ready to serve me and my family. Call it coincidence... I call it a miracle. I have witnessed Heavenly Father's hand in my life dozens of times but never so prevalent as the last 6 months. He really does place you in certain neighborhoods, give you specific visiting teachers and home teachers, and he really does place people in our lives that we need and who need us. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Last Sunday was a day that I will never forget. Actually there have been many things over the last few months that I honestly believe lead up to the events that happened last Sunday. It is hard to write about things that are sacred to me and my family and to explain the emotions and feelings from the spirit, but I want to share some of the ways we literally have had angels come into our home. You see, there are different types of angels. Angels who HAVE ALREADY lived on this world, Angels who WILL live on this world AND angels who CURRENTLY ARE LIVING on this world. The angels that have come into our lives are angels who are currently living here. (we didn't have the other types of angels come... if you thought that's where I was going with this... sorry to disappoint you lol). My family has been blessed and watched over so many times that they can not be counted. It happens daily... sometimes more than once in that day. We have received so many gifts.. diapers, wipes, formula, money, food. We have been served in many ways including... weeds pulled, help cleaning, taking care of Oaklee and Carea, playing with Larkyn, a day out for Logan and I... I could go on and on (then this would be the longest blog post EVER!) </span><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">It has been hard for my husband and I to accept some of the gifts and service that has been given. I think some of these angels know that so they will anonymously leave things on our doorstep or anonymously pull our weeds.. if they could get into our home they would probably anonymously come clean and fold laundry :) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">One of these angels told us last week that if we aren't willingly accepting service or gifts from others that we are with-holding blessings from those individuals. I never thought about it in that way. Everyone needs opportunities to serve so that they can also receive the blessings and comfort that they need. It is very humbling to have blessings pour out into my home and in my life. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">It's never a coincidence when things have been given to us. When we needed formula ... it was given. When we needed diapers... they were on the door step. When we have needed food... that too was left on our doorstep. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I am so blessed. The love that Heavenly Father has for ME and also MY FAMILY has been obvious and abundant. He has heard our prayers and has richly blessed our lives. Anytime I have told him the things that are needed they literally appear. If you want to see a miracle before leaving this world... the fact that we have diapers and food are literally a miracle so just come on over :) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I hope that I will be as inspired as these angels have been and that I will be able to pay it forward through service, love, kindness and friendship. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Thank you to all the angels out there that have been inspired in some way to bless my life and also my family. Maybe one day I will catch the doorbell ditcher and give him or her or them a big hug! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I bought plain white curtains at Ikea and I have this urge to paint big chunky stripes on them! I know the stripes on these curtains were sewn on... and I guess I could do that too... but I think I want to try painting! Call me crazy! I want to paint different prints on curtains for all my rooms ... haha! Plus I love the added pop of color. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Anyone who has come to my home over the last 5 years has probably noticed that I have issues when it comes to hanging things on my walls. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">No, its not that I don't want to put holes in my walls... it's because I panic! <i> </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><i>What if I don't like it there... will it really look ok... </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">For some reason I always second guess myself when it comes to decorating. Honestly, it kind of freaks me out!! I can go to a store with a vision... pick out an item or design an item that is amazing and bring it home to go in a closet. ha!! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Anyway...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">So I was picked to be featured on <a href="http://studio5.ksl.com/?nid=71&sid=18095369" style="color: #f1c232;" target="_blank">Studio 5</a><span style="color: #f1c232;"> </span>for one of their house calls... a cooking house call! Yep... they were coming to my house. A house can't be on t.v. unless it's cute! Well that's what I thought! lol. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I had a lot of things to do. (keep in mind that this is all stuff that I had already.. just tucked away lol) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">First... we had to get rid of the ugly green wall!! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I had some paint called Collonade Gray from Sherwin Williams. I plan on finishing the rest of my home in this color after the holidays and when I have the $$ to buy more :) So for now we only painted over the green wall and then the 2 short walls in our home.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Thanks to mom, Des, Jessica and Lindsi for helping me paint!! We were done in less than 3 hours!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">After we were done painting I called in a favor to my bestie <a href="http://amytwittydesigns.blogspot.com/" style="color: #f1c232;" target="_blank">Amy Twitty </a>for some decorating help! I swear this is the only thing we don't have in common... she can decorate on a whim and I can not! She is so talented! She came in and she conquered in about an hour and a half ... to me that is amazing since she had no idea what I had to decorate with! I didn't have a ton of stuff... but it made a huge difference!! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Amy also came up with the idea to use the stencil I had to make these boards. So a few days later Logan picked up some cheap white foam boards at WalMart... they came in a pack of 3 for about $2! So he then painted them with leftover paint we already had! Woot Woot!! Later down the road I would really like to do a photo gallery on this big wall and then actually stencil the 2 short walls with a pale blue. And I plan on adding some more yellows, greens, and blues and pretty much any other color that will go with other accessories down the road! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Don't mind my $1500 shirt selection for this board. LOL. I am sure you can find a knock off at J. Crew or possibly Old Navy ... Or feel free to splurge! </span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Quick tip of the day... when you are wearing a lot of neutral colors... PLEASE oh PLEASE don't be afraid of adding some color! I love this yellow scarf and the different shades of blue jewelry. Mix it up a little. With these jeans... let them sit above your boots. Not all jeans need to be tucked in and these are perfect for this look! :) </span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Oh and before I forget... MIX up the patterns! This can be a bit scary for some but as long as you have something with a bigger print and the other with a smaller print you really can't go wrong. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I cannot believe it's really been 7 years!!</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Time has flown by...</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Don't you love how we look like we are 12 years old in our engagement pictures? Ha! I love this picture so much! I wanted it to be the one we sent out with our announcement... but naturally Logan did not like it. He's lucky I'm so nice and didn't pitch too big of a fit over it! LOL! I have used a wallet size as my bookmark for the last 7 years so its a little beat up. :) I love remembering when, how, why and where we fell in love... this picture is a great reminder. So the nights when Logan is driving me crazy and I open my book to see this reminder... I remember all the great and important things and everything we have together. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I am such a lucky woman! I am married to the most amazing husband! He has put up with a lot from me (<span style="font-size: xx-small;">and vice versa.. wink wink</span>) and no matter what he has always been kind and forgiven me of my many flaws. AND he is literally one of the greatest father's I have ever seen! I love to watch him play with our girls... he is such a kid at heart and loves to play so it's so cute to watch the girls faces light up and also his! He is such a hard working husband, daddy, neighbor and friend... I don't know where I would be if it wasn't for him... that is sooo cheesy to say... but it's the truth :) Plus I kinda like cheesy!</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!</span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I am asking all of my friends and family to offer up a prayer on Landon's behalf. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Landon is the sweet baby boy to the gal that does my hair, Kariann. Her family is like family to ours. Landon is just under a month old and is has spent almost 2 weeks in the hospital with no answer as to what is wrong. He has had fevers and pneumonia, was sent home last week to only go back this week with the return of the fevers. They have tested and retested for everything imaginable and are coming back with zero answers. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I couldn't imaging watching one of my sweet babies go through the things that he has already had to in such a short time here. Its heart wrenching. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">It's hard to watch such a beautiful and kind family carry this trial. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">If you could keep them in your thoughts and prayers, I know it would be greatly appreciated. </span><br />

This doesn't really fly when kiddos need to be cared for. With Carea lying on the floor crying, Oaklee in the bouncer crying, and a starving 2 year old on the verge of crying ... I started to panic. I knew Logan had interviews scheduled most of the day and would be unable to leave work so I called my mom. Immediately she knew something was wrong. Within 5 minutes she was here taking care of my babies and me. Thankfully she was able to stay here until Logan got home. <br /><br />we all know Logan is my knight in shining armor... The minute he got home he came to my side to care for me. From rubing my neck to making dinner he is determined to be there and help in any way possible. <br /><br />I love him.<br />I love my mom.<br /><br />I'm now laying here... blogging from my phone... grateful to have amazing people who care about me, my family, and are willing to serve when called upon.<br /><br />here's to a month of gratitude! </span>love birds and a few chickletshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09168861652619499976noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156011087247471120.post-47591662204354477662011-10-25T14:35:00.000-07:002011-11-23T18:46:12.495-08:00if you came over today....<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">I'll be honest...</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">It kind of stresses me out just posting this picture</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">but</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">I'm learning that I can't worry so much about what people think about my messy house and my raggedy ann lookin' kids! lol</span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">this right here is my life... every day</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">I have 2 babies and a toddler who need me - their mommy</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">that is so much more important than cleaning, crafting, web browsing - (right now doesn't count because they are all asleep :) </span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">I am actually grateful for this right here</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">Because to someone else</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">this is what they have always dreamed of</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">kids... a messy house... piles of laundry... </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">A true reflection of my life</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">my kids having fun </span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">Its white balance is way yellow - thanks to the GREAT lighting in my house</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: small;">Its super grainy - my iso was all the way to 1600</span></span></span><br />

<div style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
If I have more time other than that ... we will see if blogging makes the cut lol. </div>

<div style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Oaklee and Carea are 4 months old! </div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
They both weigh a little more than 13 lbs and Oaklee is almost an inch longer than Carea...</div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
It's so amazing to watch 2 babies grow. They are so different in almost every way! </div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Even their growth spurts are at different times</div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Oaklee is a wiggle worm... literally! She rolls and wiggles around the room... she gets frustrated a lot because I think she wants to do more than what her body will allow! She smiles at almost everyone and it doesn't take much either. If you look at her in the eyes... chances are you will get to see her little face light up! Her cheeks are big and her legs have so many rolls on them! </div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">
Carea is more serious... (just like big sister Larkyn) She is more observant of the world around her and she will also smile at ya... but you better come prepared to work for it. She has only rolled over twice... I honestly think it scares her. She loves to sit in her bumbo and watch Larkyn dance around the room. </div>

Both girls have been working on blowing raspberries, love to be read to, love splashing in the tub, love big sister Larkyn, of course they all admire their daddy, and they have started loving on all their toys!! </div>

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">She got this white/chalk board from her Gammy Carol and SHE LOVES IT! She draws on this thing all day long! And you better believe she wrote the alphabet! (it definitely wasn't me or Logan) hahaha! </span><br />
