Where has the time gone???? My baby is 9 months old already..

2011-10-23T20:41:00.000-07:00

Wow it has been forever since I have updated this thing. So I am sorry for the long post and all the picture over load. Well in the middle of July me and Audrey decided to take a 3 week vacation with my parents. They were nice enough to let us tag along we had so much fun. We went to Utah first and then we went to Wyoming. We spent a lot of time hanging out with my aunt Marilyn, cousins Jessi "Scott" and Jason "Lindsey". We went to the movies and shopping and just hung out. Then we went to Wyoming to see my Uncle Tom " Shirley" cousins Ashley and Janice, Grandma Hall and then my niece Kaylynne was there too. We were picking her up and also watching her do barrels with Rhonda my uncle Tom's horse and then rodeos, parades, carnivals and then we watched Kaylynne and Janice show pigs. Kaylynne sold her pig for almost a thousand dollars. We had so much fun and it was nice to be there. I went horse back riding with my aunt Shirley. I had never seen my Uncles place it was beautiful. My baby girl finally got her helmet after I fought the insurance for a month and a half it was ridiculous. She is doing so good with it. The first week she had it on it grew 5 centimeters which is awesome. I'm so happy her head is shaping wonderfully. I am grateful for my family and friends for all the love and support. I am so grateful for my husband he is my ROCK I don't know what I would do with out him. I love my little family.... We also got the chance in September to have a visit from my Uncle Harrison we don't get to see him very much. So it was nice to see him and catch up. We also went to Dos Gringos with my brother for his birthday. We had a lot of fun. We also went to a football game at my old high school Mesa High. We had a lot of fun with Jay and Brittany thanks for inviting us. I can't believe it my Baby girl is 9 months old already. She is growing up way to fast. She weighs 22.13lbs and she is 28 inches. She loves to smile, eat veggie strips or anything she finds on the floor:), she says mamamama and is definitely a mommy's girl, she is crawling all over the place, she is almost pulling her self all the way up but is taking her time, she sleeps through the night which is awesome for me, I call her my cutie patootie, I love being a mom and she is such a happy girl most of the time.

Mixed emotions

2011-07-17T11:58:00.000-07:00

I forgot to say in my last post that my little Audrey has to get a helmet for her head. The doctor said that towards the end of my pregnancy she was probably on my pelvis really hard. So one side of her head is way flatter than the other. I will find out more Tuesday> Hopefully only a month or two that she has to wear it. We shall see. I have just been trying to hold my head up with the two things she has to go through the next couple months. I am grateful to have the gospel in my life that helps me stay strong and have faith.

Its been so long.... My baby girl is 6 months already..

2011-07-16T11:31:00.000-07:00

I love my little family so much. Audrey turned 6 months old today. It is crazy how fast she is growing up. I'm grateful to have her in my life and my wonderful husband Kendal. We have been so busy this summer having fun with our families and friends. Audrey got to go to the lake for the first time when she was a little over 4 months old she loved it. We went with our good friends Claire and Dale. We love living out here in San Tan Valley its almost been 2 years out here. Kendal is staying busy with work and school. I'm staying busy also I just started to go back to school I am going to get my associates degree, working a little and being a MOMMY.. Which I love being able to take care of her everyday and watch her grow. She has such a personality I love it. She is always smiling. She sleeps all night and she has rolled over a few times but she doesn't like being on her belly so she gets frustrated. I am trying to be patient with it. She loves to sit up and play with her toys we just have to still watch her a little cause she gets so excited and falls over. I will try to be better at blogging...
Love

I LOVE BEING A MOMMY

2011-04-07T09:03:00.000-07:00

My precious little Audrey.

I have been so blessed being able to raise little girl. She is so much fun. She has grown so fast. I can't believe she is almost 3 months old. Time sure does fly by. She loves when her Daddy comes home from work, she just looks him and smiles and coos back at him when he makes noises. I love it and I love my husband and so grateful for his hard work. We have been super busy the last few months. Kendals brother Jason left on his mission, Sarah had her baby girl Raylee a month early. We have been to Snowflake a few times. Also been hanging out with family. We went to the lake for our annual bbq with friends. It was a lot of fun. Audrey is sitting up by her self in her bumbo chair. She is full of smiles all the time and giggles every once in a while. We are doing great we love our little family. So glad that we have such a great family and friends.

My dad does this every kid but she is still to young to stand but he likes to try...

I love my little chunky monkey.... We are always calling her that or stinker bug

1 week old already.............

AUDREY PEYTON MCCRAY
January 16, 2011
8 Pounds 3 Ounces
20 Inches Long

It is such a blessing to us to finally have her here in our home. She brings such a sweet spirit to us. I am grateful for all the love and support from our friends and family. Well here it goes. I was supposed to get induced the 15th at 8 oclock that night but they didn't have any beds open. So they told me to wait for a phone call. I was up all night I couldn't sleep. They called me Sunday morning the 16th at 5:30 am and told me to come in. We got there at 6 and got all checked in. They started me on Petosin at 7. I was only dilated to a 1 and a half. I felt some contractions but not much. At 12:30 Doctor McNeal came in and broke my water then I got the epidural at 1. So they kind of just kept checking on me. So at 4:30 Doctor McNeal came in and said its time to start pushing. So I pushed for an hour and thirty eight minutes. I had Audrey at 6:08 pm. When she came out she had the cord wrapped around her neck and she had a knot in the cord too. It was so scary cause we could have lost her inside me with out even knowing. Im grateful she was ok. Its an awesome feeling being a mom. I love being home with her and everyday the changes we see in her. Im grateful that my mom stayed with me the first week to help and then grateful for Kendals mom for staying a couple days to help too.

IT's A GIRL

2010-08-20T14:46:00.000-07:00

We went in on August 11, 2010. We found out it was a girl. We were both kind of shocked. She is one stubborn little thing. She did not want us to know she was a girl. She kept her legs tightly closed. We are due January 15th. She has such long arms and legs. It was cool to be able to see her in my tummy. She weighed about 7 oz. We can not wait to meet her. Pictures to come soon. I have to use my moms computer cause are lap top broke.

Im so bad at this thing.......:)

2010-07-18T18:00:00.000-07:00

Well for all of you that dont know I am 14 weeks pregnant. We are so excited and can not wait to have this bundle of joy. We are due in the middle of January. This pregnancy is going so fast. I have been feeling great. We are so grateful for all the support from our family and friends. It was fun hanging out with my mom and grandma because she finally came home but then left again to Utah. We miss her dearly. We also got to go to California and go to Universal Studios with our good friends Joe and Jessica. We had a lot of fun. It was a must needed vacation. Hope all is well with everyone. I will try and be better updating....

Its been so long... heres what we have been up to.

2010-04-26T23:54:00.001-07:00

We have been doing so much lately. We went up to Prescott for a couple days with Kendals family for a little vacation. We had a lot of fun at his aunt Margies cabin. Then two weeks later we drove up to Utah with our good friends Jay and Brittany. We stayed with my aunt Marilyn.
We had a blast even though it was a long drive. On Saturday we went to a Brazilian restraunt, it was really yummy. We got to go to the Sunday afternoon session it was Kendals first time at conference. We also got to go see President Hinckley's grave site and some other presidents it was neat to see. Then we went to Kendals little brother Jasons track meet in Thatcher. We stayed with Grandma and Grandpa McBride. We got to meet Emilys Fiance Rens family. We have been doing really good. Just staying busy.

BAD NEWS

2010-01-31T16:38:00.001-08:00

I have been cramping and bleeding since yesterday. It finally got really bad so this morning i woke up and told Kendal he needed to take me to the Emergency Room. So off we went to the hospital. They did so many test and gave me pain medication cause I was in so much pain and couldn't move. After laying there 5 hours they finally came in and told me that i had miscarried. I broke down. I was so heart broken when they said that i wasnt going to be a mom. Im grateful for a wonderful husband who loves and supports me thru everything. He is my rock. I couldnt ask for a better husband. Im grateful for all of my Family and my friends. Im grateful for the gospel. I know that things happen for a reason and that Heavenly Father has a plan for all of us. I cant wait until I can be a mom. It will be so much fun.
I just wanted to let everyone know.
Thank you for all the text and calls today. I love you guys.

October was a very busy month for us. We had a birthday party for my brother he is 32 crazy and also my sister turned 30, 2 weeks prior to him. Kendal wasn't at the party he was out with a friend. Then Grandpa Stratton passed away. It was so hard to see him go. He was a wonderful man to everyone even if he didn't know you. We went to Jason's homecoming foot ball game in Snowflake. Sarah and Craig got married. They are such a cute couple. Then Halloween. Pictures to come.

2009-09-19T10:05:00.000-07:00

So we headed up to Snowflake for Labor Day weekend. The traffic was bad going up and coming back down. We had a great time. We went to the Whiplash races. My friend TK and Brandon McNeil were in the races and also my brothers best friends little boy Chase was too. It rained a lot that weekend but it was still fun. We went and visited Grandpa Stratton in the hospital he had a heart attack the week. He is doing a lot better but will be having surgery the end of this month. We also got our furniture for our new house. Being bored in traffic. So we took pictures.

We went up to Big Lake for the McCray family reunion. It was so much fun. My parents also came along for the fun. We all went quad riding so much. The last day we were there, we went on one last ride and got super dirty. We didn't get that dirty but the rest of them did. The whole weekend at night we would play BIG BOOTY until like 12 we were all sleep happy by the time we were done. By the way down at the bottom some how there is a huge gap from this post to the next post. I don't know what happened.

Alright here it goes. Sorry that it has been a while since i have last posted. Starting from top to bottom. We finally got a house. It is getting built right now and should be done the end of September or middle of October. It has been a long process for us getting a house. But now we have one. My friend Whitney and her husband Tyson came in to town for the week from Washington. It was so good to see her and hang out. Then we went to Snowflake for the 4th of July. It was so nice to get out of the heat. We had a lot of fun 4 wheeling with some of our friends and watching the fireworks with the family. We also watched a lot of softball games. We went and supported our good friend Tyler. The last few pictures are of Fathers day. We had so much fun. We hung out at our apartment. We went swimming and had lots of cake and icecream. Hope everyone is doing well.
NEW HOUSE YAY!!!!!

Memorial Day/Birthday Week

2009-05-30T19:17:00.001-07:00

Well to start out the weekend we went up to Sierra Vista to visit my cousin Breanna and her husband Will. It was so much fun and relaxing. While we were there we went to Tombstone and to St. David. St. David is where my mom is from so we went by the cemetery to see my Grandpa. I miss him dearly. He was always there for me. Then we went and saw some more family that lives there. Monday was Memorial day so we got ready for girls camp since we were leaving on Tuesday. Kendal had a surprise birthday for me on Monday and my sister ruined by accident. It was pretty fun. We had a lot of fun that night. I'm so grateful to have a loving husband. We hung out with some friends and had cake and ice cream. Tuesday was my actual Birthday but we were going to girls camp for our ward. It was fun but freezing. We hiked 4 miles up to Horton Springs and stayed over night then hiked back the next day. I don't have pics yet for girls camp that will be later. Hope every one had a good week. Pictures are not in order lol.

FUNDRAISER FOR BABY ELLERY

2009-05-07T23:45:00.000-07:00

Fundraiser For Baby Ellery McBride
As Some of you already know my cousin Caleb & his wife Shelley started their sweet family a few months ago back in September. Much to their surprise, their little girl "Ellery" came 35 weeks premature. She was diagnosed as having a chromosone deletion in her 9th chromosome resulting in a congeital heart defect called Tetraology of Fallot. They have had many trails, and have been in and out of the hostpital since the day Ellery was born. My friend Cami has been so kind, she has made a blog with there "story" on it. There is a link to the right of my blog or you can go to www.babyellerybenefit.blogspot.com, and read their story. Because she whas been in the hostpital for most of her fragile life, she has had to lay flat. This resulting in her head flattening out. I am trying to get the word out so they can raise enough money to get Ellery a little helmet to reshape her head. So spread the word everyone please and thank you! They have an account set up at Bank of America under "Ellery K. McBride benefit account," No account number need.We will be holding a fundraiser to raise money for the Mcbride family, @ Habit salon on Saturday June 6th. So please let me know if you are interested:) (We will be doing haircuts,Brow waxing & lip waxing I'm not sure the cost yet, sorry) we are in the beginning stages of planning. Also we are trying to put a raffle together for that day. If anyone is intersted in donating any items or services to be raffled off please let me know Chelsea Brandon (480)-241-5820. There will be more info to come! I will keep you all posted. '

Also you can look at my cousins blog its under Jeff and Chelsea.

Jason and his wife Kelly
Jason was a really good friend of my family pretty much family since his brother is married to my sister. Jason always had a smile on his face unless you made him mad lol. He was so loving, caring, if you needed help he would be there for you. He was such a good dad to his 2 daughters and 1 son. He was also a loving husband to his wife. He will be greatly missed by all of us. We love you Jason and you are in a better place now. I will miss seeing you 2 to 3 times a week. Look down at all of us while you are in heaven. We love you so much.
