I was sad to see Monday come because the guys had to go back to work. Things seem to start falling back into place.
With the guys going back to work and me being home. The good thing is that it was June and the weather was nice me and Sarah hung out when she had time off of school or wasn't with her boyfriend isaiah.
We even hit the gym to try to work out some to keep in shape. But for some reason, I just couldn't lose this small pugdy belly that I had. Then again it was hard to lose the small belly I had gained, when I couldn't stop eating green beans, potatoes with loads of butter and bacon.
As Tom had went on I started to feel kind of sick at my stomach all the time but I chalked it up to being because I was eating so many buttery taters. But I seem to want them all the time.
For some reason it seemed to be that I was tired a lot and really enjoy just kicking back with my guys when they came home. I'll never told them how tired and exhausted I really was because I figured I really didn't have much to complain about. They were the ones who were out there working hard at a job. And I was just at the house or going to the gym with sarah.
It seemed like a blink of the eye and the 4th of July was here and I was excited to spend this year with my guys and my family. I was also happy because I knew that Abby would be moving up here to Seattle Washington in the next couple days. Maybe I will go down and visit her to see how things are going before school starts back in the beginning months of September.
Well a lot of people was out for the 4th of July we ended up going to the little Lake or normally we would have our ice skating rink in town. we did some fishing and swimming around. We went there a lot to swim on days that seemed to be warm.
Jennifer used this opportunity to have some of our family members to help her get the nursery done. They were doing it in frogs. With Browns and green colors for the new baby boy they were having. She picked out the name Axel Dean Braxton for their little boy. She was going to have his name Axel up above his crib.
One thing that I found really fun is when we was all together around Independence Day we talked about the upcoming holidays because our family seem to be so much larger now.
It was a competitive event that took place. People seem to think it was a great honor to host the family holiday season.
October always seemed to be a fight for who could throw the best Halloween Gathering, in this crazy family full of firefighters. the tradition was that it was always done at the fire station in town so all the kids from town and in the valley could enjoy it.
They always had a trunk or treat, a slightly spooky haunted maze in the section where they parked the fire truck inside the Fire Station. But this year it seemed like Grayson one of the firefighters ended up winning the competition.
That they had at the fire department to see who was going to do the Halloween tradition this year. Last years theme was mummies and vampires by dad. This year it was going to be clowns.
My brother give the best argument about Thanksgiving, because he was gone to have the newest Braxton baby in the family. He also had a big house that could entertain everyone. It had a yard that the kids could play in too. He and Jennifer were all in on making their new home part of the traditions.
I claim dibs on Christmas and nobody could beat me out of it. I told them that I've already booked a rental cabin that was just 40 minutes from our house going to sumas town. I had it booked for 12 days starting on December 22nd.
That was going to be plenty of room for everybody to go and they even had an activity room. There was even a hot tub on the back and several jet tubs in some of the bathrooms.
It was a three-story Log Cabin tucked in the center of a bunch of woods. It was at the very end of Kendall valley range.
It would be a great place to take family photos together. Then I showed every one the picture of the house, so they can see what I was talking about.
Everyone absolutely loved it and said that was a great idea. I even started laughing and said no one realized that I also got the house for New Years and New Year's Eve. So I'm actually getting two holidays for the price of one.Some people said you sneaky little shit and others were just laughing. It was going to be a great upcoming holidays. I was looking forward to spending them all with my family.
Things seem to take in unusual turn on July the 20th. That night around 1a.m I woke up in severe stomach pains. I had thought the pain wasn't go to stop. It not been hurting this bad before just like have menstrual cramps off and on for 5 weeks now.
I ended up screaming out in pain and sitting up fast in the bed which made me very dizzy. I thought I just peed the bed. The guys woke up and flicked on the lights and looked over to see what was wrong and noticed that the sheets were full of blood. I was screaming in pain and crying out make it stop.
The guys rushing me to the hospital in town, which thank God we only lived about 7 minutes from the hospital in town. Once they got me to the ER, they took me straight back to OR because the bleeding wasn't subsiding. I was going pale. They rushed me straight into a surgery room then I passed out.
