February was a busy month. We found out we were pregnant with our 8th baby ( actually in January). They should change the percentage of effectiveness on those birth control shots. We were busy with the Blue & Gold banquet, we had a pirate theme. Troy decided since everyone else was volunteering to help he would volunteer me. We found out in a Parent teacher conference that Lathan hadn't been turning in or doing any math work for 2 months & had done very little language arts work, so we spent 2 weeks getting him caught back up. I got called to the Primary Presidency in our ward as the 2nd counselor, I got put over the Scouts. Afton had his first report due & Lathan had a science project due. And through all of this I have been the sickest I have ever been during a pregnancy. I thought this was due to the hormones in the shot & my own pregnant hormones, but at the end of February I woke up with really bad stomach cramps that got worse & worse until I started throwing up & I thought I was going to die! It was horrible! So I woke up Troy & we loaded all the kids into the van & went to the hospital in the middle of the night. We found out my gallbladder is full of sludge & I have a few polyps. So in a few months they will do another sonogram & see how it is doing. Until then I am on a low fat diet. It sucks & I am hating it.But it is getting better the longer I am on it I am finding more & more that I can eat.

Just a hilarious shot. We were all laughing sooooo hard.
Afton & his monkey he made for his report.

his report!He worked so hard & did a great job.
this is the pirate ship I made for our Blue & Gold Banquet. Troy & I cut it out & painted it & then I made the sails. we had pigs in a blanket , french fries, fruit & pirate punch for dinner. And cute x marks the spot cookies & pirate ship cake. Everything turned out great! Especially since it was only 2 days after my attack.
Afton all ready to go skateboarding
these next few are just a few pics Afton & Addy took today when they got my camera. I thought it was funny & cute of them.
Wow, Rachelle, I hope you're doing better! Looks like you've all been busy :) That pirate ship rocks!
