The Adventures of Dee & Michelle!: May 2013

So I feel like it has been forever since my last post. I have been wanting to write on my blog... but I haven't really had anything to write about.

We had finals... School Ended... Work! Work! & more work!... & other things... None of which I thought sounded interesting to write about. ha

I thought about writing about my ER visit.. but if I was to explain why I was there I feel like I would need to go into detail to make people understand why I was there so I didn't sound silly. So I do not want to write about it because it is pretty much too much information.

I guess I could just say that I went to the ER the day of Finals because I had horrible horrible cramps... which later I found out were actually more like contractions. I was in a lot of pain & I couldn't stop screaming & crying. So Dee took me to the ER, usually I would have refused but I knew something was horribly wrong.. Basically my body was going into labor even though I didn't have a baby in there to push out... I had the placenta still inside my uterus & my body want to get rid of it. There was no way I could have gotten rid of it on my own & that's why I just kept bleeding & bleeding. I felt like I was going to faint, I could barely move, I felt like I was going to barf, & I didn't know what was happening to me. It was a scary experience. Anyway when I was at the ER they did an ultra sound & found that I had stuff still inside my uterus from my previous miscarriage, it was the size of a baseball. They ended up having to do a d&c to take it out. & everything has been fine since. I now know if I ever have any more incomplete miscarriages (lets hope not) I will get a d&c before I ever let it come "naturally". I found out that what happened to me is actually a pretty rare thing. So whenever I have babies I might have to get d&cs after each birth... But hey at least I know I will have strong placentas for my babies now. ;)

Anyway here are some updates:

Dee & I went to Zion National Park May 17-18. We did the Angels Landing hike. It was fun... but a few parts were scary, scarier than havasu!! haha Right when we got to the top it started pouring down rain. It is safe to say I was scared. So I prayed. For all of us.. that we would make it down safely. Anyway, after the hike we had my sister Megan & brother-in-law Justin & my cute niece Harper meet us at our camp spot for tin foil dinners & smores. We also had our friends Justin & Olivia meet us there as well. We had a lot of fun.

Dee & my anniversary is less than 2 days! Ahh! So crazy... it seems like we just got married yesterday.. & then sometimes it feels like we have been married for years. But that is a good thing. I fall more & more in love with Dee everyday. I'm married (& sealed for eternity) to my very best friend & I could not be happier.

Dee & I are going to Bryce Canyon the end of June for his family's reunion. It should be fun. We are going to do some hikes.

Dee's birthday is in less than 2 months. (: I know we are going to a buffet so he can eat some crab legs (eww!) & maybe we will invite people over after for cake & ice cream so we don't end up having to eat a WHOLE cake by ourselves like last year. haha

Some time in the beginning of August Dee & I are going to Montana. We want to visit the town we are moving to this December/January. Plus we are going to go to Yellowstone National park. I can't wait, I am excited.

Then we start school in August. I think I am actually excited about my classes!

Here are some pictures from our last two trips:
