A look Back at 2010

So much has happened to our little family this year that I thought I better document it and just see how busy 2010 really was...

Here we go

We moved to our new BIG 1250 sq. foot apartment out in the country in Salem Idaho ( 10 minutes outside of rexburg)

We started school... again

Ron and I celebrated our 1st anniversary by trying to go to the temple (it was closed) and ended up at home depot getting stuff for our baby crib church clothes and all, followed by a lovely dinner at Johnny Carino's and snuggling up the movie UP while we ate the cheese cake from our wedding. (This wasn't our actual anniversary) Our actual anniversary was a sunday and was spent speaking in church, home teaching , me puking all over the place and ron cleaning it up cause I was so weak.... I know what a lovely first anniversary.

Ron and I get called to be scout leaders... worst calling ever

I entered my last months of pregnancy... HALLELUJAH!!! probably the longest few months of my life

I got Hydronephrosis and I was really sick for about 2 weeks with IVs, ultra sounds, the whole bit.... yeah that sucked

Ron and I basically weren't married this semester cause he finally entered his senior year and was busy doing multiple research projects

We had our wonderful baby shower

Ron started a mentorship, advising, tutoring and doing multiple jobs to pay our rent. (I love being poor)

Endured Labor

Finally after 17.5 hours of in active labor and 27 hours of hard core labor I delivered hayden.... Longest 2.5 days of our lives

Started back up in full time school just one week later

Endured hayden's acid reflux, and horrible colicy stage, but only just!!!!!!

Countless nights with 3-4 hours sleep or no sleep at all.

Went through several emotional breakdowns through out the semester and I finally broke down and went to the Doctor... Gotta love prosiac, a vitamin D deficiency and Postpartum Depression,

Ron blesses Hayden and does an amazing job.

Ron Graduates with his bachelor's in Exercise and Sports Science!!! YAY! YAY!!

Relaxed in St. G for a month with help from the mama's we actually got alone time, and full nights sleep

Hayden finally sleeps through the night 7 pm to 7 am!!! Best milestone ever

Ron gets an amazing Job teaching at BYU-I

We finally figure out how to be parents.... well sort of

I enter my final semester of school... WAHOO!!!!!

Hayden Rolls over

Hayden's first halloween he was the cutest pumpkin ever

We move yet again to a beautiful townhouse and we love it!!!!

Hayden says his first word Mom and mama!!! yay!!

Hayden blows rasberries

Hayden crawls

I graduated with my associates in home and family!!! SUCH A RELIEF!!!

Hayden's First Christmas

There ya have it folks the year 2010 for the garner's. It was way busy but probably one of the best year's of my life.

Oh this is so cute! I like how I can point out the time when I first met you...such a short year for me, but probably not for you!
