Wow! How time Flies... Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks And Even Months!

April came in racing has Jon and Jerome finished off school. Jon got older on the 2nd... (I think he turned 31)... All I know is that he says... "I Am OLD!" April 29... We had a new and very beautiful addition added to the Barrow side of the family. Steve & Bethany had there baby; Lillian Elanie Barrow. A wonderful way to end April!

May came not fast enough has the excitement built to Jon's Graduation (With Honors in his class)!!!! Jerome got registered to start Kindergarten next Year, and offers of jobs (2) came in. China Or Just stay Here???? Change is hard... HUGE choices are even harder! In the middle of choices a funeral. Lynn Barrow passed away on the 19th. A sad day for the ones who loved and will miss him; and a happy day as he meets his wife once again! May Came to a slow end and BOOM...

... Right into June... Fishing, YARD SALEING (almost every weekend), and building a swing set for the kids. Sun screen and red Skin and LOTS OF SUMMER FUN!

Kids, Kids, Kids!

2011-03-29T12:06:00.000-07:00

I was trying to find parking spot the other day, when Jerome yells from the back seat as he sees the handicap parking sign and the empty spot that laid under it... "That is BOYS parking!"

How funny and ture at time that is! =)

That is her funny face!

This Past Year... 2010!

2011-01-08T08:21:00.000-08:00

Jon has been going to school at the College of Southern Idaho. He is in the Wind Technology Program and will graduate with his associates in May. He is excited to be done and eager to find a job in the field. While going to school, he has been working part-time at Goodman Electric Motor, learning skills for the future.

Jerome started pre-school this year at Head Start. He is the oldest in his class and the SMARTEST! He is starting P.S.R. soon, because his Behavioral Therapy program is being cut; he will miss his friends there dearly. He started Occupational Therapy and loves working with his Therapist Lacey. All-in-all he is a 5 year old boy on the go!

Remington turned 2 this year, and with that age comes the terrible days, and we have had a few. Remi spends hours doing puzzles and building with Lego's. He is trying to be a BIG boy, as he is being potty trained. Remi loves his brother and sister and loves playing away the days with them!

McKayla turned 1 this year. Oh, how time flies! She has learned to talk, walk, and fight with the boys. But, when you get past the tom boy side she has learned form her brothers, she is a princess! She loves her baby dolls, and pushing them in the stroller. She is such a BIG girl, as she is being potty trained too. She is never alone and always has her big brothers to help her out.

As for me... this year I have baby sat off and on, I have been making and selling cards, and I have just been being a mom; the most challenging job of them all! I have had my third kidney surgery this year and am trying to avoid or at least postpone the fourth. I am grateful for all that I have, or don't have; and am just happy watching my kids grow and learning more about them as they get older!

That is Us... 2010

The Barrows

Jon, Natalie, Jerome, Remington, McKayla

There is a Pot of Gold at the end of the Rainbow!

2010-02-11T13:54:00.001-08:00

Jon.... has a job! I know some of you are saying finally, and I would agree. It feels really good! Jon is working 10 hours of student study and 20 hours at the D.I.. Plus he is going to school full time. I am SO PROUD of him.

I am NO longer babysitting. There are pros and cons but it is SO nice to just have to worry about my own monsters! =) Jerome and Remi misses have a friend though.

Jerome is have the time of his life going to Positive Connections (his school). He is doing very well and is being able to control his anger. We is STILL a wild monster... where he gets all his energy is beyond me.

Remington is turning 2 on the 22 of February. YahoO! He is talking up a storm and everything you say he says it too. So need less to say... Think long and hard before you talk because it WILL be out there soon enough!

McKayla is turning 1 on the 17 of February. YahoO Again! She can stand all by herself.... you know what this means don't you? It means walking is just around the corner!!! I can't wait!

That is what is new and exciting with us... and Yes there is a Pot of Gold at the end of the Rainbow!!!

2010-01-11T08:29:00.000-08:00

McKayla's hair if finally long enough for piggy tails!

What a smile and what a face!

Dad... just being Dad!

We are living...

2009-11-10T11:26:00.001-08:00

Hi everyone! How are you all? We are living from day to day but that is better then some in this country.

Jon is STILL looking for work! Sometimes it feels that we will never get work. He is registered for classes for next semester. He is enjoying his classes and is excited for the jobs that should be awaiting us when school is done.

I am selling card for a few bucks here and there, but every little bit helps. I am holding down the fort! =)

Jeromeis loving school. He is learning SO much. He is excited for Christmas to come as he sees lights going up around town and displays set up in the stores.

Remington is talking. Talking so much that you just don't know what to do when you have a quit moment. He is learning at a rapid speed, repeating everything Jerome does and says and that... wel... it isn;t always a good thing.

McKayla is crawling. I am so excited to see her move. Soon she will be walking and then I will probably think that she should be back to where she is today. =)

My First Craft Fair!

2009-11-10T11:20:00.001-08:00

I had my fisrt craft fair selling my cards! I had a bunch of fun and learned so much too.

2009-10-21T14:38:00.000-07:00

2009-09-23T15:01:00.000-07:00

Jon has been in school for awhile now. He is just starting to climb. They are climbing there first wind mill tomorrow and he is way excited (200 feet up... not the job for me). But... I am proud of him and I am so glad that is like it. No word on work though. We are still looking.

I am selling my card. I am trying to get nab-a-card up and going. I have my first craft fair the first weekend in November. I am way excited, a bit stressed, and a lot over whelmed!

Jerome started school on his birthday a few weeks ago and Is enjoying the interaction with other kids. He is learn lots about manners and how to act around other people. He is growing so fast.

Remington has a mouth full of teeth now but he is still working on some ruff ones. He is starting to talk and say cute little works here and there. I love to hear him say grandma. Those moment's make having kids worth it.

McKayla will be crawling before you know it. She is really getting around. She is starting to push teeth. Her hair is getting longer which makes me excited to play with her hair. Girls are fun!

That is what is up with us for now!

The Begining and The End!

2009-08-19T17:50:00.000-07:00

We are no longer in Idaho Falls any more. We are living in Twin Falls with my dad. Jon is working here and there for temp services. Jon starts school on Monday. The end of our bad luck is coming to what appears to be a stand still. I hope with all my might the good stuff for our family is on the horizon!

Things just aren't working out.

2009-07-02T14:48:00.000-07:00

We are moving the end of this month (July). We have been trying to get a job since November when Jon was laid off. With no prospects, we have not a penny to our names and bills are not being paid. So Jon is registered for school (CSI). He starts Aug. 24. We will be living with my dad and trying to get a hold of our lives and crawl back out of this hole we are in.

I Hope Thing Pan Out!

2009-06-23T09:38:00.000-07:00

So we are still looking for a job for Jon. But we have two possible interviews! That is the most we have hear about any jobs since November of last year. Job has applied for CSI in Twin Falls, I hope that pans out too. In the mean time Jon is work every old job he can get his hands on to make the rent.

Jerome is working hard in his therapy sessions, I hope that pans out too. He is still wild, still outgoing, and still my baby.

Remi is starting to do those cute funny things that kids do to send you into laughing fits.

McKayla is smiling and laughing more then ever. She is a sweet angel!

I am Serving! Hoping things will PAN OUT!!!

Still Looking!

2009-06-11T09:53:00.000-07:00

So we have been unemployed since November of last year now. It is hard to keep your hopes up but I guess there is a time and season for everything. It is only a matter of time. Jon has been appling to jobs left and right. He is the one that is coming depressed and I hope he know we love him and we know he is trying his hardest. So... to all you out there that look at this keep your eyes open for job openings, we are willing to relocate! =)

2009-06-04T20:20:00.000-07:00

Through the Ups & Downs!

2009-06-04T19:10:00.000-07:00

I haven't written for a few weeks. Not much has changed, even though I am praying that it will change for the better.

McKayla is starting to make those soft, sweet nosies that make you turn to moosh. At that very moment her little figure has both her momma and daddy rapped so tight around it. She has the hole world at her finger tips and she doesn't even have any knowledge of it. I just hope she knows that she can do anything she wants to.

Remington... is a monster right now. He is so sweet, a big teddy bear. But those terrible twos are on it's way. He is starting to talk. It is so cute when "ot oh" comes flying out of his mouth, when something unexpected happens. He is growing up FAR too fast!

Jerome... Wild cave man comes to mind when I says his name, but he is my baby none the less. There are good days and there are bad days. We try to survive the bad days and we enjoy ever second of the good days! There are few good days but they are priceless! The therapy, I question these days, I don't think it is working anymore... but they say give it time. Jerome has found a love for worms lately with all the rain. It has given him something to do lately (picking worms).

Jon is working so hard just to pay the bills that are "have to" pay bills. I am SO proud of him for all the hard work he is doing... even though I know he HATES each minute of it. It is getting SO hard I don't know how we would make it without my family... Well we wouldn't. We thank those who have helped. ; )

That is use right now. Just trying to live through the ups and downs.

Sunday Drive

2009-05-18T16:03:00.001-07:00

Yesterday we went for a Sunday drive and stopped at my in-laws for a quick visit. Jerome was acting like his normal self. The first thing he wants after arriving was to go for a 4-wheeler ride.
Grandma said "Wait a few minutes and Grandpa will take you once he is done watering the field."
Jerome gasps with excitement, "I will get the keys!"

(For those of you who don"t know; the keys are on a hook up high next to the refrigrator in the kitchen.)

Grandma confidently states, "He won't be able to get them there are to high."

(Jon & I both look at each other and laugh... " Oh, yes he can!".)

Jerome shortly runs out the back door holding the keys to the 4-wheeler in his hand.

Grandma childishly comments, "At least he doesn't know how to start it!"

(Jon & I both look at each other again knowing Jerome's intelligence... "We'll see.")

Less then three minutes we hear the engine start with a roar. Jerome was sitting on a running 4-wheeler by himself!

Jon & I laugh as Grandma's eye bulge with astonishment!!!

I find it amazing how smart kids are. Jerome one smart cookie!

For Cry'n Out Loud!!!

2009-05-15T17:13:00.000-07:00

Stressed!!! Extremely Stressed!!!

Fact: When one of my kids have a tantrum they ALL start going (ALL AT THE SAME TIME).

Jerome has O.D.D. (Obsessive Defiant Disorder). It is a chemical imbalance. So I guess it isn't always his fault all the time, but he always starts the chain reaction. He has good days and bad days. Yesterday was amazing! Manners on occasion, well behaved for the most part, no extreme violent behavior to anyone. I was shocked were did my son go and where did this one come from. I am not use to normal kid behavior. Yesterday was a Great day... it must have been to much to ask for, for it to happen twice. Jerome was back to his same old self today!

I sometime wonder if all this therapy is helping. They are adding a PSR counselor and I hope with all my might it helps.

The Barrow Kids!

2009-05-15T17:06:00.000-07:00

That is eight kids all under the age of 5!

Kamryn (5), Kelli (3), Jerome (3), Lindsay (3), Karter (1),

Remington (1), Daniel (1), McKayla (2mo.)

The craziness was bound to happen with that many kids! But it went better then I thought. The kids were very well behaved and they looked so cute with there cool tie-die shirts, and there hair done just right. We get the pictures back on the 5Th of May.

I can't wait they turned out so cute!!!

They are Smiling!

2009-04-14T07:14:00.001-07:00

McKayla is starting to smile.

She melts hearts with that smile.

He sporting one crazy smile.

McKayla has a chubby cheek smile.

Remi wearing daddy head set smile.

Very sneaky!

Getting to know more....

2009-04-01T14:59:00.000-07:00

I guess, a picture says a thousand words... So, I feel I need to write more.

So here is our story...

Jon and I met on a blind date snowmobiling in 2002. We got married on November 2, 2003. We got to know each other better and a few years later Jerome William Barrow was born on September 15, 2005 (now 3 years old). Jerome weighted 6lbs 10oz and was 20 inches long. After a few bumps in life we tried fertility and got Remington Owen Barrow on February 22, 2008 (now 1 years old). Remi was 6lbs 12 oz and 21 1/2 inches long. Not long after being told we couldn't have any more children, we found out about baby number three. McKayla was born on February 17, 2009 (now 5weeks old). She weighted 7lbs 11oz and was 21 inches long. That is how we came to be Jon & Natalie X3!

McKayla's Baby Blessing!

2009-03-31T16:59:00.000-07:00

March 29th was McKayla's blessing.

Jerome was so handsome and so excited for her.

Our Sweet baby girl!

Look at the camera...

My mom bought her blessing dress.
Boy! What a dress it was....
Gorgeous!!!

Happy Birthday Remi!

2009-03-31T16:52:00.000-07:00

Remington turn one on February 22.

Remi enjoyed eating his cup cake at
Daniel & his birthday party.

Yummy!

Cake at home with just the family.

What a face!

Happy Birthday Remi!

Getting Well Again...

2009-03-19T14:06:00.001-07:00

We have been sick for the past few very LONG weeks. Jerome has been for the most part healthy. Remi almost got put in the hospital and McKayla has a cold. Jon is healthy and I have had strep. But with all of this, I think that we are on the the up hill end of things!!! It is about time.

Getting The Hang of Things!

2009-03-09T08:08:00.000-07:00

Boy is there a difference from two kids to three kids. But, she is so worth it! I am enjoying the dresses and bows, trading in blue for pink and, flowers not trucks; there are so many differences.

Jerome loves "HIS BABY". He just can't seem to get enough of her. Always wanting to help and sometimes it ends up being more of problem then a help. But, he means well. Jerome looks more and more as a little kids and that makes me said, but I guess they have to grow up sometime.

Remington... That is who had the hardest time with McKayla. Remi is no longer the baby... but then again he still is a baby. He is starving for attention, he thinks. It has been quite the change for him. Thankfully he is adjusting well now, with a bump her and there along the way.

McKayla is finally getting on some what of a schedule. Life is so up in the air with two BIG brothers! But... She could not be more loved and adored.

McKayla Leann is finaly here!

2009-02-19T13:33:00.000-08:00

Our Family
Ready to go home.

Born 2-17-2009 7lbs 11oz 20"

The Baby is Coming Soon!

2009-02-15T06:47:00.001-08:00

I just wanted to write before thing get real crazy. I have company coming today and the baby is coming Tuesday that is only two days away and I still have so much to do. My thoughts are all crazy and I can't keep them straight, so this is going to be short and sweet. TWO more days talk to you after.

ONE more Week!!!

2009-02-10T13:50:00.000-08:00

Wow time flies and then it crawls. Remington will be one in a few weeks and he is getting so big. We are having McKayla on the 17Th, that is a week from today! YIPPEE!!!!!

4 Weeks!

2009-01-21T19:29:00.000-08:00

I just wanted to spill my excitement out!!! There is only four more weeks thank heavens. I am scheduled for the 17Th! I am so excited and I just want it to come. I finally get to meet my little gil.

2009-01-15T20:58:00.001-08:00

Make a Smilebox scrapbook

What is cookin'!

2009-01-14T07:51:00.000-08:00

Wow, how life is so unpredictable. Why is life so hard on good people (at least I think we are good people)? Why do we always have to learn the hard way? Some time you just have to wonder if God really is watching or if he took a break.

Anyway...

Jerome went to Sunbeams for the first time this Sunday and loved every minute of it. He was worried at first but ended up having a wonderful time. He is such an amazing kid. He has the ability to go so far in life and I just hope that we can give him all the necessities he need to go the distance.

Remington is starting to walk. He is growing so fast. It feel like yesterday he was born and now he is almost one. He is my sweet and chunky teddy bear. He has the softest hard .

I was so blessed with the children I have and amazing husband. Even though at time I may not notice it they are amazing!

A Rollercoaster Ride!

2009-01-13T10:03:00.000-08:00

Well, I haven't written in awhile so I guess not much has been going on. I five more weeks left. Then I will finally meet our little girl. I am so excited.

Job hunting sucks! There isn't much out there. I pray that Jon will get a job, and I guess God works in ways we don't always understand.

Jerome is getting excited to get a new baby. I just hope Remi will understand, but I don't think so.

Things are kind of up in the air again... well still!

Job Searching is not good at all there is really no jobs out there.

I can't wait to be not pregnant any more. (less then 2 months left!)

Jon's Sentencing day is just a few weeks away.

Remi's Birthday is just a few weeks away.

The anxiety and stress is starting to really sink in and I am getting too impatient.

Christmas Morning!

2008-12-27T11:16:00.000-08:00

We had a really good Christmas this year. Has Jerome grows older and gets more and more excited about Santa coming it makes it fun. Jerome got a HUGE dinosaur named Spike from Santa. At times it is hard to say who likes it better Jerome or Dad! Jerome got a bunch of clothes that he needed very badly.

Remi got Elmo Live from Santa but he does not quite understand the whole Santa thing. Remi got a few other little toys and some clothes. He was very over whelmed by the whole Christmas experience. This was his very first Christmas.

I think the main point of Christmas is to see your kids faces on Christmas morning as they come out of their rooms filled with hope, excitement, and joy! After you see that it really doesn't matter what is awaiting you under the tree, that all can wait.

Stress!!!

2008-12-11T18:06:00.000-08:00

So life is full of stress right now. Most would thing it would be of the up coming holiday season but they would be wronge..

Jon still does not have a job and is old work refuses to pay unemployment.

My mom finally had surgery for her uterine cancer. The doctor that did the surgery messed up and cut a hole in her bladder. They then had to open her back open again fix things.

I am sick of being pregnant!! I have been pregnant for what feels like two years straight.

I hope as the holidays approach life starts to relax!

Life has been event filled and very exhausting at times!

But, Even with the stress,
Jon got some time to go Steelhead fishing
(He caught one but could not keep it.)
and play with the Big Horn Sheep!

Just Around The Bend!!!

2008-11-16T09:40:00.000-08:00

Remi's First Quarter Ride (Lindsey's Birthday Party At Leo's Place)
My Boys Having Some Fun!

Isn't it amazing how your life can change in the matter of minutes. This past two weeks has been a roller coaster ride. Jon got laid off on the 5th and we put in our plea in court on the 12th. We are job searching and that is a really slow process, so it seems. I have enjoyed having Jon home though. The boys are loving it!!!

But, Reality is starting to set in... There are NO more paychecks, there is NO more money once it is gone! We will survive though, through it all! We are just keeping our hopes up!

This is that Tag Thing!

Halloween Day was fun for the Boys this year. They sent the day jumping in the leafs with grandma Gritton. They had SO much FUN!!!

Remington didn't really know what to think about leafs!

But, with Jerome their he seemed to get the hang of things!

Jerome and Remington went with grandma to her work Halloween party.

Jerome was the BEST Spider man in the world!!!!

Well, it has been awhile; hasn't it. My weekend and beginning of week are extremely busy, stressful, and packed with fun.

Thursday is Lindsey's birthday. I won't forget it because Jerome has been singing to her all week long it seems.

Friday is Halloween and Jerome can hardly wait for the minute he gets to put on that Spiderman costume. (Remi is going to be a zebra.) Fridays is also trail prep; I am so nervous, afraid, and I just want it to be behind us. I want to move on with life and just have this be one of the monumental hurdle you have to cross in life. Friday is also Steve's birthday and we are having a Halloween, birthday party for him that night.

Saturday is Lindsey's birthday party at Leo's Place and Jerome has never played there and is looking forward to the fun. Jon & I are celebrating our anniversary on Saturday too. I don't know exactly what he has planned but I am excited.

Sunday is our real anniversary.

Monday is Court... The real thing. No more postponing.

Well, It has been awhile since I have posted anything... a bunch has happened but not all good.

My grandpa (Heiner) pasted aways and the funeral and viewing were all this week. When people you love past on you always remember all the fun and always not so fun memories of that person. My grandpa always said that he had dreams of Jerome before he was born. I never would have remeber that but now it is something I will never forget.

On a happy note... Remi can wave now. I think it is so cute; there is nothing special about the way he does it, it is just that he does it. Remi has been sick his week. I was hoping that it was just teeth but that wasn't the case. I sometimes think that maybe he will never get teeth, but I am sure he will with time.

Jerome... Well my monster! He is learning how to listen at least that is what I want to think. There are those days like today when I don't ever think he will listen to me. But, one thing I can say about him is that he loves his brother so much! I hope he is ready for another baby...

Jerome's 3rd Birthday!!!

Jerom's Birthday was today. Three! More independent, more stuborn, and more lovable! He got a bunch of clothes for his birthday, which I know is not that exciting but he was so in need of them. His party was at Esquire Park and he had a blast playing with kids his age (Kamryn, Kelli, Karter, & Dillon). It is hard to beleive that three years have come and gone, I just hope that I have done my best to make him the best little man that I can.

Remi says mama now. When he gets really mad or wants attention he yells momo. I love it!

This is cool. I think I am getting the hang of things. I had a doctor's appiontment today... I am 16 weeks and next time I go in a will know if it is a girl or boys. Honestly I want a girl... a change, a challenge, but all I know is boys.

Jerome's birthday is coming up and he is so excited. He will be three this year. Another mile stone was reached for him today... (this may not be exciting to most but to those who are potty trainning, this is HUGE). Jerome went poop in the potty for the very first time! YIPEEE!!!

Remington is rolling and I can only guess he will be crawling in no time. He is learning that food I put in his mouth isn't all bad, it can be good.
