The Hullingers

...and we're back

2011-12-01T22:20:00.000-08:00

So it's only been 9 months since our last post. Let's see where did we leave off?! Oh yeah, our epic road trip in March. It went well. I'll leave it at that. Since then:

- Jeff got his MBA
- Jeff got a job at IBM
- We moved from Seattle to southern California
- I went to Japan to meet my family for the first time
- We're pregnant (JUST KIDDING)

We've been living in Laguna Niguel for the past 6 months. It's been nice, except that our little apartment has the worst lighting ever. We're getting really tired of living in a cave so we've decided to move out of our current place and head south to San Clemente. I'm really digging San Clemente.

Life is good. The kids are happy and healthy. Jeff is enjoying his new job. I'm enjoying my new kindle.

Hullinger Family Road Trip!!!

2011-03-02T20:12:00.000-08:00

2,862 miles and 2 days and 1 hr on the road. This should be an adventure of epic proportions. Seattle-->Walla Wall-->Salt Lake City-->St George-->Las Vegas-->Laguna Niguel-->Santa Monica-->San Francisco-->Eureka-->Florence, OR-->Seattle.

We just bought a dvd player for the car that should keep Mick entertained for part of the trip, but we anticipate a challenge none-the-less. Stay tuned for an even epic-er highlight video forthcoming.

Wish us luck (particularly in our 'new' 98 Toyota Corolla). Should be a perfect test for out little green machine.

Arrgh Matey... Happy 3rd Birthday Mick!

2011-01-02T20:39:00.000-08:00

We had a pirate theme for Mick's 3rd birthday. We decided to have a very simple family party this year. Mick had a great time hitting the pinata, "helping" me make his birthday cake, rubbing frosting all over his face and then running around the house on a major sugar high.

Lucy cooperated a bit and we were able to capture this cute little pirate picture.

Arrgh.

Some new family pictures from Christmas break

This is the fremont bridge troll

Lucy Goose is a little ticklish girl and loves to smile

Mick had to help her open her presents. She was very grateful.

She's so proud of her balance and leg strength!

This is our first full family picture. This was Christmas day at Carkeek Park.

Mick loved playing with his new digging toys at the beach.

Uncle Spencer was Mick' favorite. Sorry, Katie.

Ok. He did like Katie a bunch too.

Something for posterity

Glamping is Way Better than Camping

2010-11-04T20:33:00.000-07:00

We went to the San Juan Islands (Friday Harbor) a couple of months ago and it was quite the adventure. Jeff and I are not the most experienced campers, but have taken more of an interest in camping since living in the Northwest. On this trip we discovered "glamping" (GLamorous cAMPING) and I definitely think this is more our style... a big canvas tent set up on a campsite with a fire pit, etc., but inside the tent is like a hotel room... nice! Here are a few pictures from our wonderful, rainy excursion to the islands.

We miss you Daddy!

2010-07-05T20:47:00.000-07:00

I'm in Utah with the kids until Sunday. We are having a really great time visiting family, but we miss daddy!

We love you and miss you Jeff. Here are a few photos of our trip so far...

Best day ever!

2010-06-13T12:36:00.000-07:00

Memorial Day was one of those days when I kept thinking to myself "life can't get any better than this". These past few weeks have been a little stressful in the Hullinger home (Mick has had a difficult time adjusting to baby sister) so it was so great to have a relaxed fun-filled day.

We began our day with a beautiful drive to the east side, past Issaquah (east of Seattle), to a beautiful lake. We had a fantastic time hiking around and throwing rocks in the water, however it was cut short when rain started pouring down on us. It is always fun to play in the rain!

The rain cleared up and it was gorgeous outside so next we headed to the Northwest Folklife Festival at the Seattle Center (downtown). We had an fun time looking at all the booths of handmade crafts, listening to bands play and eating goodies, but the highlight was watching Mick's excitement as he rode little carnival rides. He was in heaven!! He rode fire trucks, airplanes, cars and a pirate ship. His cute little personality (the Mick we know and love, but haven't seen much of the past few days) shined again... hooray! I couldn't stop smiling and laughing cause he was so stinking cute.

Haha, see a resemblance? Lucy has definitely got some meat on her, especially in the cheeks! She is our little chub-a-lub and we love having her in the family.

Baby Lulu

2010-04-17T22:53:00.000-07:00

Our little girl has arrived! Lucy Elizabeth Hullinger was born on April 16th at 8:20 am weighing 7 lbs 2 oz and 18 1/2 inches.

Contractions started around 4 pm on the 15th. We went to the hospital around 11:30 pm, epidural around 2:30 am, and then I slept comfortably until it was time to push. I only had to push for like 2 minutes and out she came! I couldn't have asked for a better labor experience.

When did my baby become a little boy?!!

2010-03-13T11:03:00.000-08:00

It seems like yesterday that Mick was born and now he is a little boy running around and talking! How did that happen? Time has just flown by.

We have entered a new phase with Mick--the terrible two's:). My mom will be thrilled to know that he is like I was when I was little. (haha... I'm just waiting for him to bang his head on the ground). He is doing his fair share of screaming and when I tell him to talk nicely he sometimes screams back "I won't talk nicely!" We still love him though and think he is the most amazing boy ever born.

His little personality continues to develop and he is SO FUNNY. He is just packed with personality. He loves to dance and make up little songs. His laugh is contagious. It is no surprise that he LOVES to be the center of attention (just like mommy and daddy). He is still obsessed with cars, trains, trucks and now airplanes. He is our little cook. He insists on "helping" me with every meal. Funny story about cooking: The other day I came into the kitchen and he had opened the cupboard, pulled a bagel out of the bag, got a butter knife out of the drawer, found the honey and spread it on the bagel. I was shocked... he made his own sandwich at 2!

Thank you Jeff

2010-01-30T22:26:00.000-08:00

In the past few weeks I have realized...

that I married the perfect man for me.

Jeff has been beyond supportive lately. He has given up his wife (for the time being) to the cause and allowed me to work on helping to organize relief efforts in Haiti. He hasn't complained that the house is a disaster and meals aren't on the table. He has been so incredibly helpful with Mick. He has put his arms around me and comforted me when I had emotional breakdowns. He worked with his MBA classmates and raised $4500 in one week to send to Haiti. I'm so grateful that I married a man that cares about others. I couldn't ask for a better role model for my children. He is amazing! Thank you Jeff.

Jeff just got a flip camera from his school because they want him to film some stuff while in Haiti, so he decided to put it to good use in the meantime and he made this.

We're having a girl!!!

2009-12-05T19:44:00.000-08:00

Yep that's right... we are having a girl. We are both super excited! I can't wait to start buying girly clothes.

Stats help from Mick

2009-11-23T17:06:00.000-08:00

Jeff has been taking notes for his upcoming stats test. He is allowed to have 2 pages of notes. This morning he couldn't find them anywhere. He looked all over the desk, in his backpack, and other obvious places. In passing I said to Jeff "Oh in the future don't leave any important papers out because Mick will take them and color on them." Jeff kept looking and finally found his notes on Mick's coloring table. Mommy knows her little boy! Apparently Mick thought daddy was missing some very important information and so he decided to help out a bit by adding his own notes.

The best 3 years ever!!

2009-11-21T11:19:00.000-08:00

Jeff and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary on November 17th. The past three years have been the best! I Love you Jeff. You are the best husband and daddy in the whole world! I look forward to many many many more years (to infinity and beyond...inside joke) together.

Our first date

I fell in love with Jeff on this camping trip

Jeff's Great Jean Exchange

2009-11-11T19:39:00.000-08:00

So Jeff's brother Ricky bought Jeff a nice pair of jeans from Nordstrom more than two years ago. As you can imagine they were quite worn from years of wear. They looked something like the picture above (not really, but you get the idea). They were worn thin on the knees and there was a hole in the crotch.

We've heard about Nordstrom's incredible return policy and today Jeff decided to test it out. This is not something I would EVER do... returning two-year-old jeans... way too embarrassing!

So we jumped in the car and headed to Nordstrom on a mission. We walked up to the counter and Jeff showed them the jeans and told them he would like to exchange them for a new pair. I couldn't stand even one more awkward second so I pushed Mick off in the stroller in a hurry. It doesn't take much to make me feel embarrassed. This about did me in!

Jeff was completely honest about how old they were, etc. Long story short... they exchanged them for a new pair!! Their return policy really is amazing! I still wouldn't do it, but Jeff loves his new jeans.

Golden Gardens Park

2009-11-02T20:28:00.000-08:00

One of the best things about Seattle is all of the amazing parks. We went to Golden Gardens Park on Saturday. It was so nice to some good quality time together. It doesn't happen often these days because Jeff is so busy with B school. Mick had a great time playing in the sand, Jeff had fun doing tricks on a log and I laughed at Jeff doing tricks on a log.

For the Grandparents

2009-10-30T18:07:00.000-07:00

Mick is saying...

-"bye bye" (bah bye)
He learned to say bye a long time ago, but he is using it in a new way. He says this whenever he wants to do something that is not parent approved. He'll turn to you and say bah bye and push you away so he can do something naughty. It hasn't worked for him a single time, but he keeps doing it.

-"Stop Mommy"
I bought some m&ms for Mick at the store the other day and he dropped a few in his car seat. When I ate them he looked at me very seriously and told me "stop mommy".

- "Dada tent"
He loves playing tent with daddy. The game tent consists of Mick saying Bah bye and Jeff puts the covers over his head and creates a tent. Mick jumps on the tent and collapses it. Great fun! He could play this for hours.

Mick's favorite things right now are... (in order)

1. Cars, trucks, tractors, trains, boats, buses
Mick is obsessed. He rarely goes anywhere without a car or truck in his hands. The other day we went to the D.I. to look for toys. I tried to hand him some cool dinosaurs. Not interested. He pulled out every single car and lined them up neatly. Jeff wishes he was as enthusiastic about balls as he is about vehicles:)

2. Blocks
Second to his beloved cars, Mick loves to play blocks and he is really good at building towers.

3. Still LOVES his blanky
4. Tacos
5. Chocolate ( when he says it sounds like chalkie)

There are so many cute and funny things he is saying and doing right now!

Getty Museum and Santa Ana Zoo with Grandpa

2009-04-15T08:36:00.000-07:00

We went to the Santa Ana zoo and mick enjoyed walking around the grounds and playing with sticks. We should just go to parks until he starts to care about animals a bit more. But I guess we enjoyed ourselves.

We also went to the Getty museum in LA and it was great. I can't believe it took us so long to decide to finally go. Parking is $10 bucks but entrance is absolutely FREE! I can't believe it. We saw things like Van Gogh's ireses and Monet and other famous artists' paintings as well.

Mud fun

2009-03-22T19:22:00.001-07:00

l

There is nothing Mick loves more than being outside, especially being outside playing in mud!! At first I tried to keep him relatively clean when he was in the backyard, but after seeing how much fun he had getting all dirty I decided to embrace his "boyness" and now mommy and daddy turn on the spigot and let him go to town. It keeps him busy for a very long time, which I love. Here are some pics of the fun!

Mick loves playing with daddy!

These pics are from the Bowers Museum in Santa Ana. It was awesome! I saw an amazing exhibit of African photographs and Mick had a blast at their kid's museum. The best part about it was that he played so hard he took a very long nap afterward.

Hike on the Stewart Falls trail

2008-10-20T11:22:00.000-07:00

We decided to go on a "fun hike" this weekend up to Stewart Falls up past Sundance. We even saw a horse that Mick insisted on riding.

Here's some pics of Mick scaling the shelves, looking at the horsies in the back yard, playing with his cousin, reading with dad, getting into things... and more.

My film debut

2008-08-20T21:00:00.001-07:00

Some have heard that I was an extra for a rugby movie called 'Forever Strong' about 2 years ago. Well, it's finally coming out in September but I care very little if you go to it or not. It is in no way tied to my self confidence or self image whether or not it has any degree of cinematic success.

However, if you do want to see the BULK of facetime that I do get in the movie, you can do so by watching the trailer at http://rugbymovie.com/. Pay close attention to 26-27 seconds on the timeline and enjoy!

3 Arch Bay fun!

2008-08-04T08:19:00.001-07:00

Mick wasn't a huge fan of the sand or the waves. The sand didn't taste good and the waves scared him. He liked it when the water was calm though. He was also a bit upset with me when I dunked him in the pacific ocean.

Grampa with Micky at the pool in st george

the follwing weekend we went back down to st george and rick and sarah came out from SF. It was a great weekend, mostly because I shot the moon 3 times in one game of hearts.

Mick likes to splash more and more every time we go to the pool. He's excellent at the backstroke as well.

This is me and mick on my new piglet. It's not quite big enough to be a hog.

he loves gramma and the outdoors

2008-06-11T21:28:00.000-07:00

Leah took Mick to the zoo with her dad and sister and her sister's kids. Mick didn't really appreciate the animals as much as he did being outside. He's pretty easy to please at this age.

This is post-dunk. I held my breath too cause I was nervous for my son.

26.2 for 10k

2008-04-08T09:57:00.000-07:00

So Leah and I have just "launched" a fundraising blog that we are calling, "26.2 for 10k". We are going to raise $10,000 for a charity in the Dominican Republic to help build houses and other useful projects.

One of the primary ways we're going to do this is through people sponsoring Leah in her preparation for the St. George marathon (http://www.stgeorgemarathon.com/) in October of this year. Check out the blog (http://runfor10.blogspot.com/) for more info and to see how to contribute to this worthy cause!

2008-04-06T13:15:00.001-07:00

Sometimes Mick and just sit and watch tv together.

and sometimes we go skateboarding...

His hair is coming in quite nicely. He even likes to part it.

This is his new thing. For some reason he always puts his left hand on the side of his head and grabs his blankey, shirt, or diaper with his right.

He likes hanging out with mommy too.

The happy sumo

2008-04-04T06:44:00.000-07:00

I took this pic this morning on his changing table. He looks like the happy sumo guy. His new thing is to kick the blankets off thru the night. The other morning we walked into his room to see him rotated 180 degrees and out from under his blankets. He can't even roll over yet but he's a proficient night-scooter. He never scoots around on his back during the day, only at night when we can see.

Mick had a good time with Gma. Even though he struggles in the hair dept., he's sprouting more around his entire head.

He loves to smile in the mornings. Sorry all of the pics are with my camera phone. We lost our cord to connect our camera to the computer so for the moment, it's no going.

He's happiest on his changing table.

2008-02-19T14:20:00.000-08:00

We need to get more mick standing photos on this blog. He gets a cute smile on his face like he's so pleased with himself.

2008-02-15T12:49:00.000-08:00

Mick is really working on his leg strength. His vertical leap is pretty poor right now but check back in a couple of months.

Mick loves his baths. He even like to shower with his mommy. He likes all but the scrubbing part.

Leah and Mick had to take their morning nap on the couch cause I have been sick and have taken over the bedroom.

2008-02-08T22:04:00.000-08:00

Uncle Todd holding little Mick. We went to the BYU game today versus Santa Monica and we lost 22-24. It's great to be in SoCal even if it's just for the weekend. We're really looking forward to watching Todd and the rest of the guys playing in the USA 7s tournament tomorrow. Go eagles! Stay tuned for a bunch of more fotos next week when we get around to posting them! Our favorite pic is a family picture of me leah and mick in cardiff by the sea overlooking the ocean during sunset.

Lorenzo por la mañana

2008-01-28T15:14:00.000-08:00

Mick is really starting to get a personality. Yesterday he was smiling when we would kiss him on his fat little cheeks. I think he got leah's kissable cheeks. He also wore his favorite outfit this weekend at the rugby games in St. George. Oh yeah, and thanks to grandma Becky, Leah and I got the most sleep ever since getting him home from the hospital.

2008-01-24T08:26:00.000-08:00

Mickster chillin in his new digs. We can officially put his diaper on properly now that we can take part of the straps off. This is going to cut his laundry in half. Thanks abuela Claudia for the outfit!

HOME AGAIN

2008-01-21T08:27:00.000-08:00

Well, Leah and I have finally brought our little baby Mick home to Provo. He seems to like his new room, although we had to take the surfing monkey off of his changing table because of all the creams and ointments and supplies necessary to change his diaper.

His first two nights home were hard on Leah and me and we're just getting used to being up most of the night. Mick has done well from 4am-7am which we're very grateful for. Stay tuned for more pics of Mick NOT in the hospital.

2008-01-17T10:34:00.000-08:00

This is the first picture in a while that shows mick's beatiful face without any tubes taped to it.

2008-01-16T15:57:00.000-08:00

As Jeff mentioned, I spend most of my time with our little Mick at the hospital. Today was a GREAT day!! They removed some of his tubes, took out his IV, and gave me the okay to nurse him whenever he wants... he is becoming quite the little boob man (just like his dad!). Thank you all for your support and prayers.

2008-01-16T10:30:00.000-08:00

Mick is doing very well right now. He is nursing like a champ and is not on any pain meds anymore. It's looking like he'll get out of primary childrens within the week. At least we're crossing our fingers for that. He's getting out of his newborn funk and is starting cry like babies do, although he loves to be held and calms right down with his little binky. Leah has been logging many hours bedside and I get there after work to enjoy some father-son time.

Yesterday, the nurses let us know that Mick was the cutest baby they've ever seen, including their own children. Good job, son!

Yesterday we were hanging out with Mick and he was sleepy when we were holding him and he woke right up when we put him into his bed. I couldn't help but take some pics cause he was so cute.

Here is Leah with little baby Mick right after I caught him. That is one of the benefits of going with a midwife, she let me help to pull him out and put him on leah's tummy. Then I cut the cord. Leah did great. She was only pushing for about 10 minutes and mick's little black hairs were showing. We were both basket cases when he came out and let out a good cry.

Unfortunately, Mick had a little defect. He had a small hole in his tummy where his bladder was exposed and coming out. He wasn't on her stomach for 10 seconds before they took him into the nursery to have a doctor look at him. He was there about an hour and then loaded him into the transportation unit and took him up to Primary Children's Hospital up in SLC. I was able to ride up with him so we were thankful for that.

Mick was a tough little baby though. He barely winced when they were poking the needle around his forehead looking for a vein for the IV. He really IS his father's son!

Today, they operated on him and repaired the hole and closed his pelvis. To keep things "together" they wrapped his two legs together like a "Mer-man" (also a movie-reference to Zoolander) but it hasn't seemed to bother him too much. He came out of surgery doing doing very well, he only used the breathing tube for about 30 minutes.

The doctors say that we might be able to bring him home as soon as within a week. We really hope that is the case but we're very grateful for the care he's getting in the NICU. He's got his own nurse that takes care of just him, so we don't worry too much. Luckily, we're been able to spend a lot of time at his crib-side since he's been there. He is also lucky to have a bunch of grandparents around to keep him company as well.

You also see some pics of him in his "fighter goggles" to protect his eyes from the light he's under to help with the jaundice. Those are my favorite pics I think.

We'll keep you all posted through this as it is much easier to explain his progress once, instead of saying it a hundred times.

Miles and Devon are growing so quickly and are the best of friends. I took them down to the train tracks and showed them the trains. Miles was disappointed that there wasn't an engine anywhere, just train cars. Then we went to go get some icecream where Devon picked his two flavors and Miles got the same ones. They were taking forever to eat their icecream so I helped them to finish.

some of the latest pics. The picture of miles is funny cause I couldn't time it right while he was in the air. We stopped trying after miles jumped too far and nailed his head on the end of the couch and hit the wood underneath. I'm good at being the reckless uncle.

Leah was having contractions 5 minutes apart for a few hours so she thought she was going into labor. Her mom and sisters jumped in the car and came up from st george to be with us but turns out it was a false alarm, to all of our disappointment. We did have a good time though and got to hang out with the nieces and nephews.

One picture is chad, jason pye and me at some ohio state restaurant on a rugby trip. The other is some of the fam at delicate arch in moab. The only thing that the 2 pictures have in common is the fact that I dominated at hearts in both places.
