Haha so you know that goal I made a few months back....like almost 12 months! The one about how I'm going to do a post....every week! Haha Todd kindly reminded me of that a few days ago. Then I kindly reminded him of my computer troubles and how I have some other things that I do during the day like changing diapers and wiping noses and helping Huxley not sit on Cache's head. Yeah....the blog didn't turn out the way I had wanted but you know....I did do more than I would have if I hadn't have set the goal and that's something right?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Anyways! Christmas is coming! Fast actually! I can just hear Aunt Paige's voice doing the daily countdown. The things we'll miss this year! We actually decided to stay in Barrow this Christmas. It will be very different! We'll have 2 1/2 solid weeks of staying at our own home...meaning NO. AIRPLANE. RIDES!!! I cannot tell you how comforting that thought is! It's sad when you get to the point where just looking at an airplane makes you want to throw up....or just stay in Barrow forever. Don't worry family I'm almost professional at throwing up so I'll take one for the team and throw up and get on a plane so you can see my cute kids sometime! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyways! More exciting than Christmas is......</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I GET TO TALK TO MY SISTER!!!!!!!!!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you know how long 6 months is? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I do and let me tell you....it has not passed very quickly at all. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sister Kristina Hendricks is serving in the Colorado Colorado Springs Mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. She's doing awesome! She's such a great example to all of us! And in 11 days we get to hear her voice!!!!!! Oh what a great Christmas it will be!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well let me tell you about our crazy little life up here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are SOOOO close to having the addition done! I cannot wait to have all of my husband's brain power back! If he's not working on it....he's thinking about it! So as soon as we can get that done the better. Except for the fact that Todd always needs a project so I'm just bracing myself for his next idea. Wish me luck! We have renters that need to be in by January 1st so we're so close!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Huxley turned 2! And boy is he thinking he's 'the stuff'! He's so cute though! Really! He's a pill though! Some of the things he comes up with I have no idea where he gets them! I like to blame Todd. Right now he's OBSESSED with 'caca milk'. Or chocolate milk. He will drink that all of the time!!!! He can even go in the fridge and get the chocolate syrup out and walk around with it until someone takes it away and then the roof comes down with his tantrums. I've limited it to after nap time he can have 'caca milk'. As bad as it is that I'm giving him so much sugar....you should see how happy it makes him! Seriously! As soon as I give him some it's like nothing in the world could make him unhappy! He gets almost giddy! :) So cute! He'll dance around and smile and laugh. Oh!!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cache....oh little Cachee!! He's gettin big!! He's discovered he does like food! It only took him 8 months! But now he's like a bottomless pit! His favorites are paper and eggs. He's also figured out he can pull himself up and get into the toy box!! He gets so proud of himself and squeals so happily!! He's starting to figure out he can walk when people hold his fingers. He gets around really well with his little army guy crawl though. I'm not too anxious to get him walking--I know as soon as he does it will be a whole different game at home. Huxley will discover he has many more uses with him!! Cache is also starting to sign!!!! I'm so happy! I love Signing Time (a little plug about this....I'm an instructor for them so if you ever want to buy any videos I can get you a good discount!) and it's so fun to see him trying to communicate with us! Right now he's signing 'all done'! Oh it makes my heart melt! It's so rewarding to see your kids do things that you've been teaching them! Someday he'll say a prayer and it will be even better!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Todd and I somehow keep ourselves busy! Todd was put in the Branch Presidency as 1st Councilor-Sacrament meetings are a whole different story now! Thank goodness for my VT companion! :) I was put in YW and have been juggling doing the activities and lessons as well as continue as the RS Secretary.....we stay very busy! We want to serve the Lord though and it looks like He's helping us do that by giving us callings! :) That's one reason we love Barrow so much. If we were living in Utah we wouldn't have as many opportunities to share the Gospel and also just to live the Gospel. Todd and I were talking about it and if we wanted to go inactive or even just miss a Sunday here or there...we wouldn't be able to. Our Branch is so close and we keep such close tabs on everyone that things aren't 'missed' as they would be if we were a bigger ward somewhere else. I don't know if that makes sense but anyways....we love Barrow and the Church! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kali is doing fine! She's a pretty good, self sufficient cat! The only thing I haven't figured out is how to get her to change her litter box. But she waters herself (somehow) and feeds herself (by cutting a hole in her food bag and eating out of it whenever she wants). I don't do much to her. We talked about getting some fish and then we decided not to because then people would have to take care of them when we leave town but then we thought we could just leave them out for Kali and then we really wouldn't have to worry about her-she'd have water in the bowl and if she got hungry enough she could eat the fish! It's a win-win right? Ha! Don't worry we're not planning on taking one of our precious carry-ons and hauling a fish up here! I say 'precious' because when you're buying all of your food 'off-slope' and bringing it all in your luggage, every pound and inch of room matters. Don't get me wrong we like fish and would love to have some...just not here in Barrow!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well I think that about does it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bye!</div>
Todd and Elaine Henkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09250408534974014164noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7273270534522271072.post-86540148246929243882012-09-04T21:28:00.000-07:002012-09-04T21:28:31.541-07:00Henke's To The Rescue<div style="text-align: center;">
Well we had another exciting adventure with the fish net! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last Saturday we went out to check it-this time in the car :)-and we had 3 fish in it</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A DUCK!!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sad but so fun! We got there just in time too-the poor thing was so tangled and just barely breathing. Todd asked if we should take him home and the nurse in me said, 'heck yes, we're going to take him home! How fun will that be to have a duck!' Todd laughed and said we couldn't have a pet duck, they poop everywhere and they stink. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well so do our children! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They just have something that catches it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So we brought him home! The whole car ride home Huxley kept saying 'duck' 'duck' and then I'd point up in the front seat and say, 'he's right here' and then he'd be ok for a little while. Then he'd start looking for it all over again and the process would repeat! Oh to have the mind of a child again!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We brought him in and I got a box and our heating pad (bad idea looking back) and a pillowcase. We put him in the box after Huxley got a good look at him and yes...a kiss from him. I know, the nurse in me should have freaked out but....I didn't. My kids are going to get sick and all I can do is take care of them. Worrying and being obsessed with the germs constantly will just make me upset. Especially since we seem to travel on airplanes....um all of the time!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyways back to the duck!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We got him all settled in on a nice warm bed with some bread pieces and just waited to see what would happen! We got everyone ready for bed and Huxley said 'night night' to it and we started to clean the fish and then we heard something scratching on the box. We came out and the duck had moved a little bit but still wasn't looking that good so we put a lid on the box so he couldn't jump out and have Kali (our cat) harass him. We went to bed and during the night I'd hear him jumping around and in the morning he looked good to go! Oh and I decided his name would be 'Hank' during one of the feedings with Cache. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well I didn't really think we could keep the duck. Especially after Todd kindly pointed out to me that ducks fly. Call me blonde but that just never occurred to me! The pet ducks I've always seen don't fly, so why would this one? Todd then pointed out that they fly South for the winter.....ohhhh right!! He was also right about the duck pooping and stinking-my heating pad is going to need some MAJOR disinfecting!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So before Church we all got in the car-even Hank-and went down the street by one of the Lagoons. We opened Huxley's door so he could watch and then we tipped the box on the side and Hank ran out! He was kind of tipsy and limped a little for a few steps but who wouldn't after being stuck in that box for 12 hours and who knows how long in the net? We kept watching and he eventually made it down to the water! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yay!!! We rescued something!! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hopefully he's ok and will be able to fully recover. He looked pretty good when we let him go!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cute little Huxley was excited to see him move around but he kept asking where he went for probably the next day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Someday we'll live in a place where we can really have a pet duck! :)<br />
<br />
Don't mind my messy house...I had been sick lying on the couch all day trying my best to keep the boys safe so house cleaning was totally off of my list of to dos!</div>

Yesterday we went for a four wheeler ride....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>all</i> </b>four of us....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
on the <i><b>same</b></i> four wheeler!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My mother would have <b><i>killed</i></b> me! I actually called to talk to her afterwards and she asked if anyone had helmets on....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We're pretty sure <b><i>someone</i></b> in Barrow riding a four wheeler had a helmet on! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well we were <b><i>watched over and protected</i></b> and no one got hurt.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was pretty exciting though!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was about <i><b>35 degrees</b></i><br />It was pretty <i><b>windy</b></i><br />We all had our <b><i>snow outfits</i></b> on</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Picture this:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Huxley was on front with a balcalva and all you could see were <b><i>two little eyes</i></b> poking out. He kept on making <i><b>'vroom vroom'</b></i> noises and every now and then a '<i><b>beep beep'</b></i>. He'd also try and hold on to the handles. <i><b>So cute</b></i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then it was Todd. <b><i>My handsome husband.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then Cache and I. Cache was in the KozyCarrier in his cute bear snowsuit and then <b><i>tucked inside </i></b>my coat. He kept making <b><i>little screaming noises</i></b> too and Todd kept asking 'are those happy noises?' Yes he was fine! He sure is a <i><b>loud</b></i> little thing!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the back was a cooler for <i><b>our fish</b></i> we were going to pick up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In Barrow people Subsistence hunt and fish which means they do it to survive. What that means for us is that we can hunt some outrageous number like 7 caribou a day and we can catch and eat as much fish as we want. So we have a fish net! It's connected to the beach with ropes and then there's a pulley system out in the water about 60 feet that keeps the other end of the net out there. Anyways you can ask Todd more about all that...I just know if you pull one rope it brings the net in and if you pull the other it pulls the net out. So! We set a net out this year to catch fish. We go out and check it every night. Yesterday we had one pink salmon in it. But there were days where it had 16 in the net. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How blessed are we?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyways, our net is about 8 miles out of town so a pretty long four wheeler ride. We stuck to the beach so that it would be safer with all of us and so we could go slower. Personally, I'd rather ride on the beach anyways. It's not very often you get to just watch the ocean waves come in and out plus every now and then there might be a dead animal. Call me sick but I never get to see the walrus or seals or whales when they're alive so when they're dead and just laying there you get to have a pretty close up look at them! They're cool animals! So we finally got out there after two stops and turning arounds to find dropped gloves. It was really windy then and starting to rain, Cache had woken up and was screaming at the top of his lungs to get out of my jacket and Huxley was trying to take his boots off and get in the water. Why did I ask if we could all go out as a family and do this? Oh yeah because it sounded like 'fun'! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was though. How many families can say they did that? I have no idea but I know my family can. These are the times that make living so far away from family and in such a remote place worth it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you ever want to come and visit we have room! We can take you on a four wheeler ride too! We won't make you have kiddos in front and behind you even! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What did you get to do with your family today that made everything worth it?</div>

Well hi! </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm pretty sure no one follows this anymore since I'm not good at keeping it updated! Well it's been about 5 months since I last got on here and I was trying to come up with reasons as to why it's been so long. (Since I had that goal of writing every week....pa!) Well I guess the biggest reason is.....I have two kids now!! Crazy!! Cache LaMar is 3 months old....ok he was 3 months old when I started this post but he'll turn 4 months in about a week! :) I think we are finally getting the hang of life too! Yeah it takes me awhile to get used to change! Anyways! I should introduce him a little since he's going to be a common character on this blog!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cache LaMar was born March 25th at 8:58 pm. He was 6 lbs. 15 oz. and 19 inches long. He's a pretty good little kiddo! He wakes up once at night to eat just a little-and when I say little it's like he gets up long enough for me to be awake and holding him and ready to nurse and then he's asleep again! He goes to bed around 9 and then at 3 ish he wakes up and then sleeps until 7 or 8. I think we got so blessed on this kiddo since we put up with Huxley for so long not sleeping! Oh and by the way...Huxley has decided to wake up in the middle of the night again and need milk too. Back to Cache! He has reddish brown hair that sticks straight up! He looks a lot like his Daddy but acts like me....slightly onery and tempermental. He has HUGE little thighs and chubby little cheeks and loves to make noise-especially grunting and groaning noises. He takes a binky but prefers his four fingers on either hand and sometimes his four fingers on both hands. He loves to kick his legs and he kicks them hard! Huxley and Cache have started playing footsie and kicking each other. It's pretty cute. He has some pretty cool tricks but the best ones right now are smiling and trying to laugh and yesterday he rolled over! Onto his stomach!! What the!? So much fun!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some things that Cache has gotten to be apart of since he was born are:</div>
<br />
<ul>
<li>A sinus infection-I promise I tried everything to keep him healthy but I guess sickness just happens when you have an older brother who gets into everything and likes to share binkies.</li>
<li>A plane ride to Alaska-he did really well actually! He was 2 1/2 weeks old and slept pretty much all of it.</li>
<li>My Medical Coding graduation-he didn't like it at all. Poor Todd had both kiddos by himself and it was bedtime. What a great guy I have!</li>
<li>High School graduation-Todd's taught for 3 years!! Can ya believe it? I kinda can't!</li>
<li>A plane ride to Utah-not too bad but he did get a little overstimulated on one of the segments.</li>
<li>Lots of walks-he loves the KozyCarrier and Huxley loves the stroller and I would love to lose weight so it's a win-win for everyone!</li>
<li>Dropping Aunt Kristina off at the MTC-he slept but the rest of us had a good time driving her down and she even taught Huxley how to do the 'Chicken Dance' and make a pretty goofy face. Oh how I miss her! Utah is great with all of the family but it sure isn't as great without Kristina here. I'm proud of her though and it's been one of her biggest goals. She'll be a great missionary!</li>
<li>Going to Yellowstone-WHOA! Haha I thought driving down from Alaska with a 6 month old was dumb and hard. This was way harder! Maybe it had something to do with the fact that Huxley takes only one nap a day so driving long stretches is close to torture or maybe it's because Cache is a total hog when it comes to eating and ate just about every hour to hour and a half around the clock which made it hard to do anything. Either way we did it! It was fun though. I've loved going to Yellowstone growing up and I used to go just about every year with my family. Now it's my turn to start doing that with my family and show them the things I love....I just wish it were easier! :)</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Swinging in Grammy and Grampy's backyard-they have THE BEST swing set ever that my dad built when we were little. So fun to see Huxley on it now! :)</div>

The dreaded 'drop off at the MTC' day. I just didn't ever think about it and then it finally came. Bittersweet. She's fulfilling one of her life-long goals and I'm proud of her for that. P.S. Yes I'm not in church clothes-I figured since we weren't going to get out of the car at the MTC it was ok not to be in church clothes. However I kind of wish I had been. It was a comfy car ride though not having to sit 'like a lady'! :) Another p.s. I made that skirt she's wearing...pretty cute eh?? :)</div>

We went on a stagecoach ride in Yellowstone. We all enjoyed it a lot! There was a buffalo that we scared too and we got to watch it run...almost into a car that was driving down the road. It was pretty cool! I kind of wish that it had hit the car just so we could see what would have happened....yeah I'm rude I know.</div>

There's been TONS of other things Cache has been apart of. He's a great trooper and lets us pack him around to do just about anything. He's pretty easy going if he's fed and his diaper is clean but if he gets tired-boy can he scream! Yup I've got a screamer for a kid. My sisters have both asked me if it's normal and why does he do that...I think he just likes to be heard and doesn't want to leave any doubt with anyone that he can keep up with Huxley.</div>

P.S. I am enjoying this new Blogger! It was so much easier to post pictures this time! Way to go Blogger!</div>Todd and Elaine Henkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09250408534974014164noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7273270534522271072.post-89940642231121291952012-02-05T20:27:00.000-08:002012-02-05T20:51:49.745-08:00Every End Has A Beginning....<div style="text-align: center;">Well today has been interesting. I woke up at 3:30 am with contractions that were coming every 5-10 minutes. I wasn't worried about it until I looked at the clock and realized it had been going on for an hour and a half and I was having really bad back pain-not the normal 'I've been carrying Huxley too much' pain but pain that I hadn't felt since Huxley's birth. That kind of scared me. Todd gave me a Priesthood blessing and I tried some other things to help things calm down. Normally I wouldn't have worried but being a 12 hour plane ride away from where I want to give birth and only being 31 5/7 weeks along puts a little kink in things. Well long story short everything is ok and we're just going to take it day-by-day and I'm hoping that we can stay with our original plan of me coming down to Utah March 18 after our Branch Temple trip in Anchorage. Anyways-the reason I'm writing this is because I realized how hard it is right now for me to imagine my little family of 3 turning into 4. After Huxley woke up we brought him into our room like we usually do on the weekends since Todd is home and he jumped on our bed and laughed and laughed. I started crying thinking that this would be our last day as our little family jumping on the bed and being goofy (that was before we had seen our NP and decided it would be ok for me to stay in Barrow). There were a few other times today that I had those same thoughts. Don't get me wrong it will be great to have another little kiddo-it'll just be different. I'll get used to it. And it is the ending of our little family but I know it's also the beginning of more great memories like us jumping on the bed every Saturday and Sunday morning. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Another ending was when Todd was released today as the Seminary teacher. Kind of weird. I try/tried to be patient with the calling and I think I did a pretty good job but I didn't realize how attached I was to the calling and it wasn't even mine! I'm crazy I know! Maybe it's because I'm pregnant. Anyways. It'll be weird having my husband around more-not that he wasn't with the calling but he did study/plan for Seminary a lot and it'll be different having him home and not have to say 'what do you want to do before you need to start doing Seminary stuff?'. Like right now Huxley is in bed and this is the time Todd usually prepares-I don't think he knows what to do with himself! :) And tomorrow when the alarm goes off at 6:15 am I won't have to listen to him hit snooze 4 times before we actually get out bed. Also, I get a car now-Todd has always had the car since he'd pick the boys up and do Seminary and then go to school after. That means I'm mobile now. What the? I can leave during the day now? I don't know if I'll have the courage to! I always leave the house with Todd-I might be too scared to go out by myself. I'm kidding! But it will be different! I'm glad he had that calling though. I think it helped our family grow and Todd grow in ways it probably wouldn't have if he hadn't of been called to be the Seminary teacher when we moved up here. I guess that's why we have callings though right? To learn and grow and then we get released. Hmm...I should learn what I need to for my calling....I'm also kidding!!!! This is another ending but it'll be the beginning of something else! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Well that's it!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">P.S. Todd wants me to write something for him....</div><div style="text-align: center;">What is a mother's favorite crime?????</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">A good kidnapping!!! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">He's pretty proud of himself. He came up with that 'all by myself, just barely'! :) So that's what he's going to be doing now instead of preparing for Seminary! Hahahaha oh wow!</div>Todd and Elaine Henkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09250408534974014164noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7273270534522271072.post-66777052018183534292012-01-31T21:16:00.000-08:002012-01-31T21:20:53.673-08:00Out Of Commission...<div style="text-align: center;">Well....as you can see we are in week #4 of January and there's only one blog post. Really I was doing good! I have two more written....it's just that my computer is well kind of throwing a tantrum right now. My charger went out on it 2 weeks ago and in good ole Barrow fashion....the mail is taking forever to get my replacement here! So anyways! I really am still trying to keep my goal going-it's kind of frustrating when your whole life is on one single machine and then that little machine decides to freak out. <br /><br />So...that's it for now! Just an update-the kiddo is still inside me, Huxley is still a little spit fire, Todd is staying crazy busy and I've started my internship for my certificate which has been a bit of a change of pace for the family. <br /><br />Ta-Ta!!<br /></div>Todd and Elaine Henkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09250408534974014164noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7273270534522271072.post-28018726305453291002012-01-08T21:43:00.000-08:002012-01-09T13:15:05.560-08:00A New Year....<div style="text-align: center;">Alright! So it's a <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">New Year</span>! I'm not really sure why everyone makes New Year's Resolutions-I mean they're very good to have but I've always found myself only doing well with them for a month at the most. So....I've resorted to just making goals <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">one at a time</span> throughout the year and working on it as <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">hard</span> as I can instead of starting out with a list of a <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">hundred things </span>I want to do this year. However, there are some things that I want to start at the <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">beginning of this year and go with through the whole year</span>. Like.....the blog! For some reason I just haven't been able to do well with the blog. Our brother in-law, Bryan, gave his wife Janelle a book of her blog this year for Christmas. I thought it was <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">AWESOME</span>! I want that someday! And looking at our blog....it would probably make a 10 page book! So I want to do better this year.....so <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">my goal is to once a week do a rundown of the week</span>. Definitely do-able!<br /><br />So here we go! <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Week #1 of 2012</span>! Hahaha only 51 to go right!?<br /><br />This week has been good. We returned from Utah a day before school started so that was nice. We were able to all just <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">hang out</span> and t<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">ake it easy for a day</span>. IT WAS SO NICE! It's <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">exhausting</span> visiting family! I was thinking that the traveling on the airplanes would be the most tiring parts of the trip but nope! It's <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">worth the exhaustion</span> though to spend time with family! It's also nice that our families live so close so we're able to bounce around and be with everyone for a lot of our trips down. It probably didn't help that we were all sick during our visit and being pregnant doesn't help with the being tired either.<br /><br />So this week.....<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">the scariest thing</span> that happened was when Huxley woke up a few hours after going to bed crying and <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">barely being able to breathe</span>. It scared me pretty bad! I didn't want to take him in to the hospital though because of the horror stories I've heard so Huxley and I had a <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">sleepover</span> in our extra bedroom so I could hear his breathing. (he's kind of a wild sleeper and I wanted Todd to sleep well so he wouldn't be tired at work so that's why we slept there) Our friend Jenna let us borrow their humidifier and a Vick's plug-in which worked <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">wonders</span> for him. I knew it was croup by the way he sounded so I was worried but not too bad that I didn't trust myself watching him through the night. The next morning I called my mom and she listened to him and she said I should probably get him an appointment so I called our Nurse Practitioner and she saw him and confirmed my croup suspicions and prescribed some medication (that of course the hospital didn't have in so we had to wait another day for it and then when we finally got it the dosage scared me so I ended up not giving it to him-maybe I shouldn't have gone to nursing school!) Well <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">he's doing great</span> now-just lots of snot and junky coughing!<br /><br />The <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">best thing that happened</span> this week was when Todd was coming home from school and one of our neighbors has been remodeling their home. When he drove by they had put <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">ALL</span> of their <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">cupboards and cabinets</span> outside-some by their house still and some by the garbage. He came home and told me and asked if I was ok if he picked them up since they are the same as ours right now and we could <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">finally get some cupboard doors in our kitchen</span>. I said that was fine and we went and asked if we could take them. The guy said the ones by the garbage were fine to take (there were only two though) and the one's by his house were going to be his daughters (there was like a whole kitchen and bathroom). Anyways we grabbed the garbage ones and that was it. The next day we were grocery shopping and we saw the guy and he said <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">we could come by and get the rest of the cabinets and cupboards!!!!!!!!</span> What?!?! Todd had mentioned we could put them in the utility room before we found out that they were already in someone's name and then I said yeah we could put them there or we could put them in the addition and Todd said 'oh yeah I didn't even think of that'. What?! Todd wasn't thinking of the addition?! That's all he thinks about! Anyways now we have a<span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"> FULL set of cabinets and cupboards </span>that we can put in our addition which will <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">save us about $5ooo</span>!! Wahoo!! <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">We are so blessed!! </span> It's a great feeling too because it seems like everything is standing in the way of the addition and it makes me <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">second guess</span> wondering if we had misinterpreted the answer we got when praying about it. But when <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">great things</span> (no matter how big or small they are) happen at random times it reminds me that 'yeah we made the right decision and it'll be worth all the struggles in the end'.<br /><br />The <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">sweetest thing</span> that happened was on the day when Todd went back to school. It's so great having breaks and getting Todd's <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">undivided attention</span> during those breaks but it's a <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">hard transition</span> when he needs to go back to work. I always just thought it was hard on me...nope! Poor Huxley walked around from room to room playing and always called out <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">'Dad', 'Dada', 'Daaaaaaaaaaad'</span>. It was cute but I felt bad for him and so we looked at pictures of Todd and I tried to distract him. Well, when it was time for Todd to come home we were in Huxley's room playing and he was lying on his stomach reading a book and then Todd came in the house. Kali (our cat) makes a lot of noise sometimes so Huxley kind of just <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">sat there and listened</span> for a second and then Todd made a bigger noise when putting his stuff on the ground and then Huxley <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">yelled/squealed 'Dad!'</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">jumped up as fast as he could and ran down the hallway squealing/screeching as loud as he could</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">practically jumped into Todd's arms</span>! Then he just sat there with the <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">BIGGEST</span> smile and hugged him. It was so precious and cute! Oh I just love thinking about it right now! :)<br /><br />Now on to the <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">picture stuff</span>! I wish it was more quick and easy to download pictures. Any suggestions?<br /><br />One of our <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">favorite things to do</span> while down in Utah. We don't have stairs in Barrow so I'm not quite sure how he learned so fast! He's good about <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">waiting for help to come back down</span> or <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">going down on his tummy</span> too! How did I get so <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">lucky</span> on that one?! We only had <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">two somersaults</span> down the stairs!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsD4z0niePP5lqAQNwpU4A-L35hMwdOHjSA-I5v0upg4LOYSaQh67x6iA2L9JmvzeUVgw91PnxBwnsmdyGqKhUX4CBoLmvMIrodcdK2Z1752Q8Xg9OZrn9_2T5BQeBreV6owmLJtnVy_M/s1600/DSC_0817.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsD4z0niePP5lqAQNwpU4A-L35hMwdOHjSA-I5v0upg4LOYSaQh67x6iA2L9JmvzeUVgw91PnxBwnsmdyGqKhUX4CBoLmvMIrodcdK2Z1752Q8Xg9OZrn9_2T5BQeBreV6owmLJtnVy_M/s320/DSC_0817.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5695739776816432098" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">The McMahons</span>!

I wish I had a picture but at the same time I know your opinion of me would change if you saw the condition of my house! It was awful. Todd asked if a hurricane came through. I replied that a hurricane, a tornado, an earthquake <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">and </span></span>a 1-year old made their way through the house. Yeah it was that bad.<br /><br />I <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">loved </span></span>it though.<br /><br />I wouldn't want my house in any other condition right then. There were food crumbs on the floor. Boxes from the post office spread around. Toys everywhere, books all over. The only thing I could think of was my little boy had been <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">taken care of</span></span> that evening. He had <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">food</span> to eat, he had <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">toys</span> to play with, he was <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">warm</span></span>, he had a parent <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">home with him</span> all night, not a babysitter.<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></span></span><span style="font-style: italic;"></span></span></span></span>I knew motherhood would be hard but I never knew how much I would grow and learn from it. I'm so grateful to be a woman and that I have the opportunity to be a mother and raise my children in the Gospel.<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></span> </span></span></span></span>I always said I wanted to stay at home with my children but I never realized what a great <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">blessing </span></span>that is to have a husband who wants the same thing.<br /><br />Sometimes I lose my patience and it's so discouraging. It's hard to know how to teach a little one. Sometime I feel like I'm not doing enough. <span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span><a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://lds.org/ensign/1997/05/because-she-is-a-mother?lang=eng&cid=facebook-shared">This</a><span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span>is a great talk that I like to read when I start feeling like that. Being a mom is what women are <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">born </span></span>to do. It's exactly what we're <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">supposed </span></span>to be doing with our time. I'm so glad I've realized this early on so that I haven't <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">missed </span></span>what's most important right now.<br /><br />I know this isn't a normal 'picture/update post' but I know there are moms who read this and they probably feel the same way I do sometimes and I hope they go and read this talk. It really is a good one and it just makes you feel good all over! :) Oh and you don't have to be a mom to read it! :)<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span></span></span></div>Todd and Elaine Henkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09250408534974014164noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7273270534522271072.post-69206736322501711892011-10-26T10:53:00.000-07:002011-10-27T16:07:40.086-07:00Who is this kid and what have you done with my baby!?<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">WARNING: THIS IS A REALLY LONG POST!

I've been thinking about posting for awhile and then I started to wonder why I haven't been posting. I mean I have the internet at home now-what else do I need. Then I remembered.....it's not that I don't want to post or something, it's that I don't have <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">time</span></span> to do it! So what are we spending all our time on up here in the Arctic?<br /></div><ul><li>Well we do have an incredibly high energy infant who thinks he's a toddler. He's into<span style="font-weight: bold;"> <span style="font-style: italic;">everything </span></span>and I mean everything! He started walking October 25th-the real no-hand on furniture thing. So he was about 10 1/2 months. Crazy I know. And it's been a rat race trying to keep up with him ever since! A lot of people comment on how he's walking early and they feel bad for me-yeah it's harder but at the same time <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">so </span></span>much easier. He's so much happier now that he can move around, he's gained a lot of self-confidence too, which helps him be brave and venture out on his own so I'm not always needing to be by him. He's also <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">SUCH </span></span>a great napper now that he wears himself out! He's sleeping about 13 1/2 hours each night (and not just a lucky night here and there, it's <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">every </span></span>night!-hey it took us 10 1/2 months to get there but we made it!) and then takes an 1 1/2 hour morning nap and 1 1/2 to 2 hour nap in the afternoon. Yeah I think people should feel bad for me now that he's walking! :) Just kidding! We've been very blessed to have such a healthy, alert, baby boy. He's not my baby anymore! I can't believe he's grown up! At the same time I can though. My mom always comments on how he wasn't a baby very long. Since Todd is such a great husband and father and we have been so blessed that I've been able to stay at home from Day 1 with Huxley, I feel like I haven't missed anything and the time he was a baby was very, very enjoyable but I think he was in the phase just long enough! I quite enjoy my little interactive, jokester we have on our hands now-a-days! He currently is growing a mouthful of teeth-it scares me. I've gotten so used to just the two little teeth on the bottom! About two weeks ago all four teeth decided to come in on top, however, the top right middle tooth has decided to go back under for the time being so he just has the 3 top teeth-I think he just wanted to be a live jack-o-lantern since we aren't able to have those in Barrow without spending a fortune! How lucky are we?! We don't even have to throw him away after a week or so! We get to keep our little pumpkin we've worked so hard on! :) His favorite words right now are 'Dada' and 'Mom' and 'Yeah'. He nods his head for yes most of the time but if we keep asking the same question he'll say 'yeah' in a tone that just says, 'hello, can you not see my head nodding?' He's super funny! He likes to laugh, especially at himself. He'll walk up and down the hall putting whatever he can over his head-clothes, a book, a blanket and then walk and if he falls or walks into the wall (since he can't see) he'll chuckle and get up and keep going but if he makes it all the way to the end of the hall without doing either he'll squeal and really laugh! Oh it's funny! He loves the older kiddos up here. He wants to be just like them and part of everything they're doing. It's fun to watch but I get the weirdest feeling watching and I just want to go help him do everything and help him not fall. Wow this has already turned into a long post. Anyways. As you can see this kid is a great big, <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">wonderful </span></span>handful! He has his days, and nights-especially those teething times, ugh-but I know it's worth it and I'm glad to have the Eternal perspective so that I can know without a doubt that it's all worth it.</li><li>As for Todd and I. Well we're both full-time students (Todd's in his Master's program and I'm doing a Medical Coding program) Trying to make the best of life up here with what we have. It's been a good experience for us-looking back at where we started almost three years ago we've come <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">leaps and bounds</span></span> on so many things. We try and wonder what life would have been like if we had followed our original plan of sticking around Cache Valley until we were both done with school-it would have been very different, but I don't think it would even compare to the life we have now. It's funny how Heavenly Father works isn't it? We think we know so much about what He wants for us and try and plan around what we <span style="font-style: italic;">think </span>He wants and somehow one little thing will change in your plan and you'll end up in a <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">completely </span></span>different place but with so much more faith and so many other blessings. Not that your plan was bad but Heavenly Father's is just that much <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">better.</span></span> Amazing isn't it? I think so.</li><li>Speaking of plans. Around this time of year lots of people start asking what we're planning on doing-if we plan on sticking around in Barrow, or finding another teaching job. As of right now, we plan on sticking around!! We are still enjoying it up here and we still feel like we're in <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">'the right place at the right time' </span></span>so why move somewhere else? We do plan on having......<br /></li></ul><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">ANOTHER BABY!!!!</span></span><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Our newest little one will be arriving sometime in early April. Many people look at us like we're crazy when we say we don't know the exact due date. Well I am still nursing Huxley and when you nurse-the rest of your body doesn't work the way it's supposed to. Well now that I've said that you're probably thinking that this little one was an accident. Well we're married-I don't think there are 'accidents' once you get married-come on people you know what you're doing. So anyways! I won't go into any detail since it doesn't matter. But we went to the Temple this past summer and were trying to decide what to do about family planning and we just felt like we should just keep going as we are and a few months later....we're having a baby! :) Huxley is <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">really </span></span>excited! He is going to be such a good big brother! We have a little girl in our Branch her name is Saryn (Jenna I hope you're ok with me posting about her) and Huxley loves to be by her! He gives her kisses and tries to eat her feet and tries to climb in and sit with her while she's in her car seat. He likes her <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">a lot! </span></span>I'm kind of excited though because maybe they'll grow up and get married! YEAH!! But he will be such a good big brother and I almost can't wait for the baby to come just for that reason-but for other reasons (like no sleeping, <span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></span>LOTS </span></span>of diapers, and two kiddos needing my full attention) I can wait as long as the baby needs!<br /></li><li>So that's another reason why I haven't posted. This pregnancy started out the same-pretty sick <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">all </span></span>of the time. With Huxley that ended at 10 weeks, well I think I'm about 17 weeks now and I'm still sportin the sick feeling. Bummer. So when I have a chance I usually am trying to catch up on housework-it's amazing how that piles up or lying down on the couch trying to feel better. Speaking of lying down, I did ok with Huxley not getting a nap during the day. I would just go to sleep really early during those first few weeks. With this pregnancy, I'm just barely starting to be able to make it through the day without a little 10-20 minute nap. I still sometimes find myself sleeping while Huxley is looking at books. Bad mom I know. I try hard though to stay awake! I promise! I also go to bed oh say around 8:30 pm when Todd is preparing his Seminary lesson for the next morning...on the couch. That thing is deadly I think. If I sit on it I'm pretty much a goner. Todd's been great about it all though. He tries to help me as best as he can. But, I don't attribute my extra tiredness all to the pregnancy-I have Huxley I'm trying to keep up with and school work and just being a wife and keeping a house takes a lot out of you. But if you've ever been pregnant then you know it does wipe you out. Also, if you've ever nursed a baby you know that it pretty much sucks the life right out of you. If you've ever done both at the same time.....you probably know exactly how tired I am! :)<br /></li></ul>Well as you can see. I do have good excuses for not posting. I am sorry that I haven't posted about a lot of fun things that have happened but just know that we are doing well and <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">'no news is good news'.<br /></span></span><br />Well I think that's all folks! Enjoy the videos! :)<br />P.S. Sorry about the quality. I had posted them all-and if you live in Barrow you know how long it takes to upload things-and then noticed how bad they were. Just deal with it I guess! :) Oh and they are really long-I put them on here mostly for our mothers to watch! :) So I won't be offended if you don't watch them!<br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></span></div><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span></div><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dz98TvGrl2_CL7pDIlTJAs6PeI4D6rliKtwDgP5iRPUr9beLrGjgAg1O1frXcCw_uCLgoT8U1uiC66Hree6MA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzLPStzevl_x3_H9HW1MUSLvhLM6Ye4dEl3D5OrXKk2pDUuqr9d9LvTfWFlJu5-W9gHKseYVC7DAk4zdZ5E' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzQSO_E-HcagJcjpBIERL8iGa36PSooLVSZKsqyrBiEXB49xmz47gbD1hOLfXV-5scTMciLQbBT2cWwZoUmuQ' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>Todd and Elaine Henkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09250408534974014164noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7273270534522271072.post-18154827930032166722011-08-16T12:27:00.001-07:002011-08-16T12:29:02.216-07:00Got Em Working!<div style="text-align: center;">You can see the pictures now on the post that you couldn't see them before!

<br />
<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Well...I'd say we're about due for an update! Let's see!</div><div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><div><ul><li style="text-align: left;">Todd finished another school year...2/30 until retirement!</li><li style="text-align: left;">We drove the good ole van back down to Utah from Fairbanks. We took eleven days to do it. Yes it was hard with a baby! </li><li style="text-align: left;">We made it back down to Utah in time for Maren's (Todd's sister) wedding festivities.</li><li style="text-align: left;">We stayed in Cache Valley with family and just hung out for about six weeks.</li><li style="text-align: left;">Todd started his Master's in Business Administration in June so that's been keepin him busy!</li><li style="text-align: left;">We braved another long flight back up to Barrow with Huxley and our missed kitty, Kali. It was a long few days of traveling. </li><li style="text-align: left;">We're back in Barrow! Wahoo! It's good to be back home! Call us crazy (and a few have) but we just enjoy being back as a family in our own home. </li><li style="text-align: left;">Todd has enjoyed putting new hardwood floors throughout our home. It looks WAY better!! He's a pretty good guy to have around! Although, we will miss our old floor...four kinds of linoleum, three kinds of carpets, stains and rips everywhere. It was a hard decision to make covering it up.</li><li style="text-align: left;">Now Huxley. Man this guy is on fire! He is learning and growing so fast! He started crawling for real (not that tummy dragging stuff he was sportin for awhile). A week later his first tooth popped up on the bottom and three days later another one decided to sprout! He's 9 months tomorrow but seems to think he's much older! It's crazy to think that he's been on the outside world just as long as he was on the inside! It seems like he's been on the outside a lot longer. Anyways... He has decided he wants to arrange his own laundry from the nice organized piles I fold and put in his clothes organizer to shaken out and put in a pile on the floor in front of it. He has 'redecorated' my cooking cupboard and put all my baking things out on the floor. (Yes I know I should lock the cupboard door but as of right now...there is no door to that cabinet.) He has discovered that he can walk a lot faster than crawling and will walk from furniture to furniture. I've been trying for awhile to teach him to stick his tongue out and he just has never wanted to. Well I'm pleased to say that my teaching has paid off and he's learned to stick it out!! However, it is now CONSTANTLY out! He can say 'da-da'! I know at this age they are just saying words but I think he really does know that 'da-da' is Todd because when he sees Todd he'll crawl up to him saying it. He's kind of a jokester now. He'll do something and then look at us and then start laughing out loud. It's kind of funny and most times he's throwing a toy or food or passing gas and we can't help but laugh but we probably shouldn't encourage it by laughing. Basically this kid is a handful and is constantly going but we kind of like him and are glad he decided to come be with us.</li></ul><div style="text-align: center;">Well I think that about does it! Sorry for the length but I guess that's just the way it is when I don't blog for awhile! Oh good news! The Henke's have INTERNET!!! What?! I know right!? Pretty crazy but we broke down and now we have connection to the outside world! Anyway! That might encourage more blog posts! Something to hope for right?</div><div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Well TTFN!!

He loved the swing! His excema is most obvious in this picture. For those of you who saw him....it was pretty bad and this picture is definitely on the up hill to recovery. We tried EVERYTHING! And I mean everything! We had no idea what it was until we got down to Utah and saw the Pediatrician (and by that time it was mostly cleared up). Everyone complains about the 'dry' Utah weather. Turns out it's not as dry as Barrow! His skin became clear with a little help from the moister climate and good ole Hydrocortisone cream. :) Poor kiddo.

So cute! I'm glad I got it too. I lied him down to take a nap and I was making our bed and he was trying really hard to roll over and then I looked over and he had but he had also gotten up on his hands and knees. He was just smiling at me when I looked over and then started laughing! Hahaha oh these moments are the ones that get me through I think!

I don't have any pictures on this computer so that will be a future post but it's up here in Barrow and we're lovin it so far! So since we bought a house that makes us more 'permanent' right?

Not bad!!</span><span style=";font-family:";font-size:100%;" > Last week he weighed in at 16 lbs 7 oz and about 27 inches long!

So cute! Instead of crying in the middle of the night or when he wakes up from naps that's the sound we hear. It's a nice change and makes me laugh!</span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; line-height: normal;"><span style=";font-family:";font-size:100%;" >Raspberries-also another favorite.

Yes we are alive!! :) You know those lists that they tell you to make...the ones that list all the things that you need to get done and you number them or separate them into: need to get done, maybe get done, won't get done. Well Blogging has ended up at the bottom of the 'won't get done' list! Sorry! That's what happens when you don't have internet and when you do it's really slow and you have school work to get done!<br /><br />Anyways!! Here's the bambino! He's 13 weeks old! I haven't weighed him today but last week-12 weeks-he was 13 lbs. 8 oz. and was 23 3/4 inches! Pretty good considering at his 8 week check-up he was 10 lbs. 6 oz. and 21 1/2 inches! He's done a lot of growing!! We enjoy him mucho!!<br /><br />As you can see he smiles! He loves to smile! He likes to talk too. He is one NOISY kiddo! Everything he does he makes noise with-including sleeping! He wakes us up quite frequently laughing or grunting or squealing. Speaking of sleeping. He sleeps about 9 hours at night and then takes 4 2-3 hour naps during the day. He eats every 3-4 hours and he apparently is getting enough to eat judging by his size! :) He loves to eat! He gets very impatient when he has to wait! He still doesn't really spit up-if he does it's a very minute amount. He loves to kick his legs and hit his arms against his tummy like Tarzan. He's starting to enjoy his bath and gets really excited and tense and kicks around! It's pretty cute! He's starting to swat at things and hold on to them. It's fun watching him learn and grow. He's starting to explore the world a lot more! He still has his plug but only has it going to sleep and sometimes not even then...he's quite fond of his fist. He tries to stuff the whole thing in his mouth....he hasn't had a whole lot of success with that! He's started to suck on just his thumb too-it's kind of funny, he'll put one finger up his nose and then have his thumb in his mouth! Oh so cute!<br /><br />There's TONS more about this little guy! I just don't really have time to write! Sorry! There's lots of pictures to look at though. Sorry it will take too long to load them on here so I just put them on our web album so if you want to look at them...go ahead!! :)<br />Just copy and paste it! :)<br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;">http://picasaweb.google.com/todd.elaine08/Huxley02?authkey=Gv1sRgCI7pvoDPw43Lcw&feat=directlink</span><br />P.S.

Well we carved pumpkins and just hung out and waited....and waited and waited!! Sunday came and went with contractions all day. On Monday morning at 2 am I decided to time them. The hospital said to come in when the contractions were 2-4 minutes apart for an hour. Well I timed them for an hour and a half and they were 2-3 minutes apart! So we got all our stuff together and left a note on the kitchen table for the fam to wake up to and went to the hospital! Well they got me all situated and checked me and I was only 2 cm but 100% effaced. Their policy says they can't keep me there unless I've progressed during the 2 hour watch period if I'm not in active labor. So we waited and then they checked me again, no progress. So we went home! I felt so dumb for going in! I was just doing what they told me to do though!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Well I had a Dr. appointment that day so I went to that and I still hadn't progressed any but the contractions were still coming. He said he was positive the baby would come tonight so we should go home and come back to the hospital later that day and the nurses wouldn't send me home. Well we decided to go in at around 7:30 pm. We got there and they checked me and guess what? No progress still. My doctor told the nurses they couldn't send me home....my nurse wasn't very happy about that. She wasn't very nice either. So they admitted me and said they would keep checking back. At 10 my doctor came in and checked me and I still hadn't changed so he broke my water. I was upset about it I won't lie. I wanted to do it all naturally but my body just wouldn't cooperate. My amniotic fluid was meconium stained which made me really nervous for the baby but the doctor didn't seem too upset. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">So there we were 10 pm and my water was broke and now we just had to wait. Well...we waited and good heavens it seemed like forever! Those contractions are intense! I wanted so badly to be strong and not have any pain medication but I couldn't do it. At 11 they came and checked and I still hadn't changed at all so the Dr. suggested opening my cervix for me but I'd need an epidural for it. At midnight I had them check me again to see if I had progressed at all telling myself that if I hadn't I would get an epidural. Well I was at a 3!! My body was kind of working! I couldn't stand the pain anymore though so I asked for an epidural and they put that in at 1:30.....I had to wait in line. Ugh! The epidural was nice to have, I'll admit. I shook a lot with the epidural though so I didn't get any rest but I didn't have any pain. At 2:30 the nurse came in to check on me and I was at 5 cm!! At 3 I wanted her to check me again because I was shaking a lot more than usual and she said that if the shaking increases I'm getting closer and I was at a 7! Well after that, I just sat. The nurse didn't come in to check on me again until 5:30 after Todd had gone and gotten her, I was at a 10! I think I was at a 10 long before that though. My nurse was not a very good one. I wasn't happy with her. Anyways! She checked me and said ok we'll have you sit for an hour and left. At 6 another nurse came in which I am so happy about. She was awesome! She told me we were going to get ready to push in a little bit. What?! That was a scary but exciting thing I was ready for it though! She got everything ready and at 6:15 I started pushing. He was out in no time!!! :) We called our parents when she came in to get the room ready and they hadn't made it to the waiting room by the time he was born! I'm glad that part was quick-pushing makes you tired! I had called my mom at 5 to tell her to come to the hospital before work to say hi....at the time I had no idea he'd be born soon. She got there right before the doctor did and was kind of surprised that it had all happened so quick. We then told her kind of politely to go out to the waiting room. She's a funny lady!! :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">It was such a good experience! I'm so grateful Todd was there with me. I couldn't have done it without him. He was great too. Always asking what he could get for me and how he could help me. I'm glad we went through it together. I feel like it strengthen our friendship and marriage a lot. He's so great with Huxley too. He's really calm and we need that sometimes! :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Well there you have it!! He was perfect! He didn't have any respiratory problems at all despite the meconium. He has all his fingers and toes and lots and lots of hair! It's starting to get more and more curly too! Poor guy! We went home the next night and now we are all just trying to figure each other out! Having a baby is a lot more tiring then I thought!! They eat a lot too. Wow. I feel like I spend half my day feeding and the other half watching the clock to determine when he needs to eat next! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">It's fun though! We love him! He's such a fun little guy!! I feel like I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing too. Like the something in my life that I felt was missing is filled. It's a nice feeling!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Well!! That's all for now!! :) I have more pictures but I only have so much time before the little one needs some food! Someday I'll learn how to do more things!</div></div></div>Todd and Elaine Henkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09250408534974014164noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7273270534522271072.post-49377642720261327342010-10-29T09:28:00.000-07:002010-10-29T09:49:40.145-07:00Le Diaper Bag and 39 Weeks!<div style="text-align: center;">Well!! We're still hanging on to the good ole pregnancy state of life!! Today is my official due date. Pretty weird!! I had a Dr. appointment on Tuesday....no progress! Dang! We'll keep waiting though! Someday he'll decide to make an entrance....either on his own or with some help I guess!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Todd's here....thank goodness! :) It's been a lot less stressful this week! Maybe I should get stressed and the baby will come?? :) Nah! We've been just getting things ready for baby. We got a baby seat finally and we're setting up the crib today. Not much else we can do except wait though!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I made a receiving blanket and burp clothes for a friend of mine which was fun.

I can't believe it!!! We are so close!! I don't have a picture of week 37 but I think I look the same in all of them so just imagine week 38 picture maybe a little smaller! :)<br /><br />We had a Dr. appointment at week 37. Everything is going well! I was dialated to 1.5 and 70% effaced! I was slightly nervous thinking that we were still 2 weeks away from Todd getting here! We also had an Ultrasound that day because the Dr. was nervous about how I was measuring. The baby is doing awesome though!! He is measuring smaller but the Dr. isn't worried saying that you have to take into consideration the size of the mom too!<br /><br />We had a Dr. appointment today for week 38. It went well! I'm still 1.5 cm and the Dr. says that the babes will definitely be in when Todd arrives on Saturday!! :) Yeah!! We made it!!! So nice!! We had another Ultrasound today to check that the amniotic fluid and Baby were still doing ok. Everything is great still!! Baby is moving around and gained 1/2 lb since last week! He's also head down which is very comforting-no C-sections here. Hopefully! :) I'm glad he's doing well! It's still scary though that it is so close! I can't be a mom!! Really??<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />Week 38-Yeah I'm not looking too hot!! :)<br /><br /></div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdh_DaVdAFU-RSgqqql26dsaTWZ5zMH52ipawhjW1Tbxg3JS-crI76KeGlP4JfxnAXeyzpiP1DNt-A8UxBc5F7TJfVZTZfrQlYRzoylnsuGb6VNLQ8jfjjIXlDSSq83uCeA50cjoCxM-U/s1600/CIMG1655.JPG"><img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdh_DaVdAFU-RSgqqql26dsaTWZ5zMH52ipawhjW1Tbxg3JS-crI76KeGlP4JfxnAXeyzpiP1DNt-A8UxBc5F7TJfVZTZfrQlYRzoylnsuGb6VNLQ8jfjjIXlDSSq83uCeA50cjoCxM-U/s200/CIMG1655.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5530658493758069202" border="0" /></a><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0ubqACbLZT5oiklXpKqxjLcQ16jTkSRaDDj0tJ8Kv6gizjTbP8VWyDAC3I3rxnYkSPuimyFYTUNswQXqmboa-xt9KwbVHwxHbTUutGJB6DRNdX04IS0qFkndc2K_1ArGW43kTCaU31CU/s1600/CIMG1654.JPG"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0ubqACbLZT5oiklXpKqxjLcQ16jTkSRaDDj0tJ8Kv6gizjTbP8VWyDAC3I3rxnYkSPuimyFYTUNswQXqmboa-xt9KwbVHwxHbTUutGJB6DRNdX04IS0qFkndc2K_1ArGW43kTCaU31CU/s200/CIMG1654.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5530658196141875890" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Things are going ok in Utah! I wish I was in Alaska but it's ok! I stay busy with lots of Temple visits and lots of reading! I go on lots of walks too....the weather is nicer here but it is slightly hot!! I made the diaper bag too-future post! Promise! :) I've gone to a few prenatal classes too-they're kind of fun.....mostly just reviews from nursing school though.<br /><br />Todd is doing well in Barrow! He's crazy busy with all of his activities! They found a substitute too!! Yeah!! Two days ago actually-yeah we were getting nervous! He was actually an old Science teacher at Barrow awhile ago and his son is the PE teacher there now.<br /><br />Well I think that's it for now!! 9 days until the due date!! Ahh! Any day he could be here!! Which is fine with me just as long as it's after Saturday!!! But if he wants he can stay in there as long as he wants to!! :)<br /><br />K well see ya!! :)<br /></div>Todd and Elaine Henkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09250408534974014164noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7273270534522271072.post-90467869507799061852010-10-04T01:32:00.000-07:002010-10-04T01:59:55.202-07:00Weeks 34, 35 & 36!!<div style="text-align: center;">So! At the moment I am sitting in the Anchorage Airport waiting to get on a 2 am flight down to Phoenix, Arizona and then I'll get on a flight to Salt Lake! Ugh I am tired!! I can't believe it's 'the trip to have the baby' as Todd called it! It's come so fast! And as much as I love our families.....I was not and still am not too fond of it. I hate leaving Todd! It's the hardest thing! And to think back on how much we've been apart....I don't think it'll ever get easier! I was thinking though. We've spent the longest time together-January to October, 9 months-since we've met. Pretty weird since we've known each other for 28 months and have been married for 22 months of that! Good thing we have each other for forever!!! :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Here are the most recent....kind of....glamor shots!!

Creeper eh? :) Just kidding I like my sister! I asked her, "what if he has Todd's nose or forehead?" And she said, "no, no he has to have your's." So then I said, "what happens if he doesn't? Are you just not going to look at him?" And she said, "yeah!" Hahahaha! Well Kristina!

He can come anytime he wants now.....I would really like it to be 6 1/2 weeks from now but if he decides to come earlier I know his systems are all up and functioning and he would survive well outside.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Week 32</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqthsqHXjf43EzqOW9gr42j0-NUAO9XZ0NcN6uc3BJWOTtq5iSEEVCwe2sHhoz9aQz3esibYUF5tJYdtj61_T9vgnD9SZDoEwr1lbwbI1-02ipGnfO4hozA2vzmKlZ423R-zuUk75-qjc/s320/DSC_0080.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5516937119667097298" /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT3yW7IJB-y5EAogisO4dgYiUg5BPwhQRRojyDC6G2z9uOoU0u1idKpqu_C7ZWMRHMDMVc2y4kwAnPfogFZMJPdQPPVPoVyQ-Abdy6IVrIKMHSCfPdDSPx0ddD0I2bb86ZHeDsG6Arye8/s320/DSC_0083.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5516937543523978578" /><div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Week 33....so attractive!

Todd's still crazy busy with Seminary and teaching and then Open Shop Monday-Thursday. Needless to say, we don't get to spend a whole lot of time together. :( I was demoted as a Substitute....ok not really!! They have a teacher who retired last year substituting this year and I'd say she was way more qualified than me! Plus not very many teachers have taken days off yet....we're only a month into school. You've gotta save those sick days for the last part of the year!! I spend a lot of time reading and cleaning....dang nesting!....and going on bike rides around Barrow. I tell you what! Biking on mud is not as easy as concrete! It's a good workout though! I've finished the crib bedding too-that took up lots of time when I was working on that. Speaking of that....I told my mom I'd put pictures up....I'll work on that Mother! :) We're pretty boring!! Hahaha!! When we go over our schedule we always say: "Seminary, school, open shop night" which is what the schedule is for every day but it makes us feel like we're doing something besides just saying, "same as yesterday".</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I think that's about it!! We're in count down time!! It's so crazy!! 45 days and we'll be adding pictures of Baby on the outside!! Yipes!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Well!! Have fun!! :)</div></div>Todd and Elaine Henkehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09250408534974014164noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7273270534522271072.post-67207227329914121992010-09-01T17:18:00.000-07:002010-09-01T17:33:47.878-07:00Week 30 and 31!!!!<div style="text-align: left;">Well!!
