More Problems

It has been forever since we have written, but it is kind of hard writing since we do not have the Internet. Well, that is just about to change. Ok, so it has changed. We got the Internet last night. I was on this morning looking at blogs and having a grand old time. It was great.

Some sad news, our camera broke. We are now in the market, saving up to buy a new one since we do have a little one on the way. You can bet your bippy that there are going to be tons of pictures up of our newborn when he decides to come.

Zann went on a hike a couple of weeks ago and I will let him tell you about that as well as post some pictures. About a month ago, he got strep and we took him to the doctor and they gave him the option of getting a shot or taking 4 pills a day for 10 days. Which would you do? He got the shot. Well, he aparently should have taken the pills. Just as the nurse was finishing giving him the shot, Zann said, "I feel dizzy". He then passed out. I ran around the table to hold him up while the nurse went and grabbed the doctor. His eyes were open, but glazed over, he sounded like he was snoring, and he was frothing at the mouth. I thought I was going to be bringing a child into the world without a husband. I was so scared. The doctor came in and they were about to give him a shot of something, but then Zann came to. He was fine. Apparently what happened was a vasovagal reaction. I'll spare you the explanation and just tell you to check out the Wikipedia article on Vasovagal Syncope. Not even a week later, Zann was riding his bike and crashed and burned. He got a little hurt, but bodies heal themselves. Unfortunately, bikes don't. He is still currently transferring different parts of it to his old frame. At least we didn't need to buy him a new bike.

After all is said and done, we are very happy. We are rearranging things in our aparment/house to get ready for the baby. We only have 11 more weeks. That is so weird to me. We are super excited. Life is wonderful here, just busy.

HOW SCARY! I'm glad he "came to" and is okay. Phew. Also, I'm sorry about the bike. If you need help fixing it up, Zann, let Derek know. He apparently knows a decent amount about bikes, and we bought him more tooks for his bday... so he can hook you up. ;) I'm sorry about your camera. Make sure you get one before you get a baby, or you will regret it! And great post- it's good to hear from you!

I didn't actually mean "tooKs" ... I meant TOOLS. Thought I'd clarify. :)

I am glad he is ok. do you guys have names picked out yet? So was I right in guessing the sex of the baby? Are you having him in Logan? Who is your dr? details girl.

Becca, I thought maybe at first you meant "toques", like the nice warm hats people wear in the winter, but I didn't see what that had to do with fixing bikes, so then I settled on tools. My next project on the bike is to adjust the brakes and to see if I can't overhaul the front shock, so if Derek has some skeelz there that would be awesome!

You two make me laugh so much! It is one thing after another with you two! Hopefully things will be quite for a little while and you won't have to visit the doctor for reasons other than the baby.

I'm so glad I got to hear that story in real life. :) You're awesome! I'm excited that you have the internet now! Wahoo!
