Familia Cedeño

 So we moved into our house last September...and I haven't really written much about our day to day happenings since then or about the house, so I'm going to do that now. I feel like we got really lucky when it comes to the neighborhood we live in. Many of our neighbors are members of our local ward (church congregation) and they are very nice. The neighborhood is peaceful and I feel pretty safe. Now that we are in our own house, I can see why so many people dream about having one. Not that I didn't want one, I just wasn't crazy about it and was willing to wait a little longer if I had to. I sure am grateful.  Our home is a rambler, there are three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of those bathrooms is connected to our master bedroom (which I really like because it is a private bathroom) both bathrooms are standard. Our front room/receiving room has a bay window which lets in plenty of sunlight and shows a beautiful mountain view. We have a kitchen/casual dining ...

Here we go again. This is not easy for me to write, but since I already shared on this blog our struggle of trying to conceive another child, I feel like it would be unfair to those of you who are wondering what has happened since then. So after I got put on my medication for Addison's back in November 2013 I made the decision that if we were not pregnant within a year, we would seek medical advice. I tracked my cycles, I bought ovulation tests, and pregnancy tests and I even took my temperature with a basal body temperature thermometer. Over this period of time I learned that I was ovulating and my cycles were regular, so that wasn't the issue and was one thing I could rule out when we saw the doctor. The end of 2014 came and with it my period and I had had it. I could not stand not knowing what in the world was going on inside of me. I just knew that something had to be wrong. That same week I made an appointment with a reproductive endocrinologist. We had our first con...

At Temple Square December 2014 Oh it's been so long since I have posted an update on Samuel. Well since he had a birthday last month, I figure now is the time to do it! He is 4 years old now. How is that possible?! Celebrating his birthday was so much fun this year. He was filled with so much anticipation that when the day finally arrived, he was bursting at the seams with excitement!  The day started off with him running into our bedroom and cheering happy birthday and then opening his present of a set of cars from the movie Cars which he has loved since he was 2. We then took him to lunch to his new favorite fast food place, Chick Fil A. Then later that day we went to the Living Planet Aquarium, which he LOVES. He especially loves looking at the sharks. We had his cousins join him along with our new neighbors. That night we had the family gather at our home for pizza and brownies, more of Samuel's favorite food.  Samuel continues to speak Spanish fluently with us ...
