It's been a very long time


It's been a huge change in the last 10 months from the last time i wrote.

We have lived in Montana for a year now, and its very beautiful and we love it here... But the base and the people not what we expected. We are counting the months until we move back home. 1 year and 5 months left! The Air Force has been very good to us, but it's not for our family. Nate and I have met a lot of people and have had a lot of good friends and met a lot of shady people. but nothing comes close to the friends and family we have back home!

Roy is now 4 years old. He had a wonderful birthday! (march 7th) He wanted a dinosaur cake and balloon. Me being the best mommy in the world i got him both! well i made the cake that is




Birthday's have always been special to me so i love making it special for my boy's.
thanks to Nathan and myself and Roy's Grandparents we have helped his obsession with Dinosaurs!!! Roy eats, sleeps, and lives for Dino's.

Wes is 3 now (as of Jan 18th) and has been potty trained since his birthday. It's been a rough time trying to get him to stick with it. Sometimes i think he pee's or poop's in his underwear to drive me crazy!!! other then the potty training Wes has been having hard time now a days. His attitude is horrible, and he thinks he is the boss. I keep telling myself if he was not so cute then i don't know what i would do! :)

Rob is 5 months Our little pride and joy :) He now rolls over from front to back and back to front and sits up when put in the sitting positions!!! It's not perfect but he does it! Im just so happy! Rob was also born 5 weeks early and spent 2 weeks in the NICU. but looking at him now there is no way you could tell he was not full term. At his 4 month visit he was 16.5 lbs!


We also added a new dog to our family. Earl he is a White boxer. We thought penny needed a friend, and we love living wildly so we got him!

well i have to get running.
Hope your Monday was awesome!

170 more days to go

I am 15 weeks and 5 days pregnant now, and i feel like its going by way to fast. I really want this time to go slow, and im not sure if its because we have nothing for baby or if its because i really want to enjoy this pregnancy. Nathan and I where very smart to get rid of everything while living in Germany, but little did we know that getting rid of it all then find out we where pregnant was going to be what was to happen next to us. Im looking forward to shopping for this baby, but at the same time i get so pissed when i think about everything i have to buy, knowing i just gave it all away. So the other day at Walmart we got our first baby item... A pack of onesies... yay onesies! I really had forgot about how much money you needed to have a baby. Its hard enough when you have a 3 and a 2 year old who grow out of clothes like weeds, and every time you turn around you have to updated their closets! Maybe i will feel better in June when we find out for sure the sex of the baby, then i might be more in the mood to spend lots of money, but for now im putting it all on hold.

Every one dies famous in a small town

Today i woke today with out ever thinking that someone who i knew for many years now would be gone.
I got a text message from a friend who let me know the sad news of an amazing person who was killed in a car crash Haley Harp, i felt like a million bricks where thrown down. people are in car crashes all the time and live, is what i was telling myself.
I guess it hurts me so bad because she is so young, only 21 years old. Not only was she just 21 years old but she was a mother!
I was 4 years old when my dad died and it hurt's every day knowing i don't know him at all and that i never got a chance to share anything father daughter with him, or that fact that he is not here today to see how happy my life is. That is why i think it hurts me so bad, because now Ciara is going to live her life with out her mother now. Every little girl needs her Mother. I know god has a time for all of us to go, and its not always when we are ready or want to leave but he needs us as his angles more then he needs us here on earth.
I will never forget the joy you brought into a room Haley, or the beautiful smile you always had on your face! I will keep your family in my prayers. Im sorry for their loss, but i know god needs you more then any of us do down here.

R.I.P Haley Harp





If i die young by The Band Perry - Haley this is my song to you R.I.P




If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
oh oh oh oh

Lord make me a rainbow, I’ll shine down on my mother
She'll know I’m safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh and
Life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time

If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time

And I’ll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I’m as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I’ve never known the lovin' of a man

But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There’s a boy here in town says he’ll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time

So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls
What I never did is done

A penny for my thoughts, oh no I’ll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I’m a goner
And maybe then you’ll hear the words I been singin’
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin’

If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
oh oh

The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep ‘em in your pocket
Save them for a time when your really gonna need 'em oh

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time

So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls

Happy Mothers day! Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day!

We have had an amazing weekend hanging out as a family and getting out in the out doors! Yesterday we took the boys to where Nate goes out ridding on his dirt bike and enjoyed hiking up the mountain! Only because Roy said he was going to find the dinosaurs. He never found his dinosaurs, but he did loss a shoe and then walked over a cactus. Daddy and myself did not know he walked over a cactus, or more then 1 until we went to put his shoe back on his foot. Roy is a trooper and never once cried. not even when we where taking cactus needles out of his foot. Roy is a tough boy! :)







I am very thankful for my little boys and my wonderful husband. I love ever min of my crazy wild days with the boys. I thank the lord for all the great blessings he has giving my in the last 4 amazing years with Nathan!
So as i share Mothers Day with my family i hope you are enjoying your Mothers day as well!

I love you Roy and Wes to the moon and back!

Other then the concert I had a pretty good weekend. Sunday Nathan and I cleaned the house, got the garage all done, and worked a little on the yard. It's always nice putting the kids to bed early on a sunday night and enjoying a movie in a super clean house! also a amazing way to start off the week!

we may have an idea what baby is?

pregnancy calendar



Who was the first to know?
Husband
&
Kayleigh Solorio
Nathan and i where staying in TLF here at Malmstrom and i just had a feeling that i was. So we took the test and it said pregnant!

Who was the first family member to find out?
Grandma and Grandpa Sandberg

Expected Due Date:
November 5, 2010

Names:
Girl: i have not found a girl name i like enough yet.
Boy: *** Lee Sandberg
the boy's name is 3 letter's and is a secret until baby is born

How i have been feeling:
i feel nauseous all the time and always tired


On April 28th we had a baby apt. they where having a hard time finding the baby's heart beat my heart beat was stronger and louder then baby's. so we had to have a ultrasound to make sure baby was okay. I was not scared at all i knew baby was fine. At the time of our apt i was only 12 weeks and 6 days. Baby was all over the place and was way bigger then Wes was at 14 weeks (thats when we found out he was a boy) But baby must have known we did not want to find out the sex until baby was born, but we are 90% sure that baby is a boy... We have seen enough ultrasounds of Wes and Roy to know what a baby boy looks like. We will confirm that he is a boy in June!

In the almost 3 months of being back in the states we found out that we are pregnant with baby number 3. I am 12 weeks right now due date is Nov. 5th. We are not sure if we want to find out what we are having. It might be nice to just wait till baby is born, but then again thats a long ways away!
