This as been a long time coming!! We have a lot of exciting events that has happened for the bishop family. James was accepted into medical school and has been in West Virginia since the last week in July. He started school August third and has been working hard in his anatomy class. He has grown so much all ready as a medical student it is nice to see the changes in him. I have been so proud of him lately. He has had complement after complement on his surgical dissection in his cadaver lab and as found many new friend that are right on his wave length he will have many life long friends come out of medical school with him.

I have stopped working since the end of July and have been feeling very pregnant up until two days ago. We have a beautiful baby girl named Kathrine Maria Bishop. She came into the world at 1:07 pm on Sunday after a quick c-section. She came earlier then was planned but she made it here safely the doctors that did the delivery were Dr. Gathrum and Dr. Allen. She was 7Ibs 9oz she has been the smallest thus far. I am on the mend and am feeling very good. Courtney has been such the big girl she holds her baby Kathrine and kisses her on the check and the forehead. She helps burp her when mommy is done feeding her and she is going to rock her to sleep for me. William has been great for a young little boy. He likes to hold her and he wants to kick and jump on her like all good toddlers. He loves to touch her face and we have to watch he very closely.

I am excited are family will be reunited in West Virgina in six more weeks. James got to see her on the web cam and wishes he was there to hold her. I am still suprised I am a mother again. I am so excited and whe is so beautiful. I have another little girl they are all so much fun and I have been glad that Courtney and William have been so good with her.

We Are Still A Live

I have been such a slacker on updating my blog. So after a long absence here is all the new.

William had his first birthday on January 30th at day care we took mine cupcakes for him and he ate like ten they gave him a birthday hat and Courtney tried to still it from him all day. We had birthday cake the next day with Grandma and Grandpa Bishop. William got to eat a cake that was decorated as a baseball and he loved it. I will post the pictures.

More events that have been happening is that James was excepted into medical school and if you have a facebook account you would already no this. We are going to West Virginia School of Medicine in Lewisburg, WV. The most recent events in the Bishop family life is we are Pregnant again Yes I Repeat We are Pregnant again. I am due on September 16th but will be having a C-section so I will have the baby scheduled a week before the due date. So what does this do to the move to WV; James goes out without me and then I come out in October after the all clear form the doctors. This will be a struggle for us but we can do it. James and I don't like to be apart for very long but that will help us when he is in the millitary and I have to be without for much longer then a couple of months. Yes James is jioning the millitary to help pay for medical school and it looks like he will join the army. I hope you have enjoyed this little update do the Bishop family I hope to keep you all better informed in the future.

Christmas Time the Best Time of The Year

2008-12-01T16:55:00.001-08:00

President David O. McKay (1873–1970) declared: “True happiness comes only by making others happy—the practical application of the Savior’s doctrine of losing one’s life to gain it. In short, the Christmas spirit is the Christ spirit, that makes our hearts glow in brotherly love and friendship and prompts us to kind deeds of service.

“It is the spirit of the gospel of Jesus Christ, obedience to which will bring ‘peace on earth,’ because it means—good will toward all men.”

Giving, not getting, brings to full bloom the Christmas spirit. Enemies are forgiven, friends remembered, and God obeyed. The spirit of Christmas illuminates the picture window of the soul, and we look out upon the world’s busy life and become more interested in people than things. To catch the real meaning of the “spirit of Christmas,” we need only drop the last syllable, and it becomes the “Spirit of Christ.” Thomas S. Monson's, Best Christmas Ever.

This is the time and the season of giving. Let us remember that this is the month that we celebrate the birth of the Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ and remember that it is the "Spirit of Christ" that we are spreading.

This is Williams first Christmas and Courtney's third. To catch everyone up on my family this year this may help.

Courtney is 2 1/2 years old she is potty training right now and she is a very determined child. We have had to have her walk around in a shirt with no pants over the weekend to get her started on this but now she is doing very well she just needed the little nudge that put her over into wanting to potty train. She is know the potty Queen she doesn't have any problems. She's My Girl!!!

William is getting very animated he growls at us and tries to bite us with his five teeth. He jumps up and down like a mad man and he walks around the table he is unable walk on his own but he is getting close. The favorite part of my day is to watch him and his dad growl and butt heads just laughing and having fun. We play horse with Courtney and William. Courtney has decided that William is ok most of the time until she decides he isn't.

The Family is working towards moving to the next step in life MEDICAL SCHOOL!!!!! We are differently ready to start medical school and get one step closer to some financial freedom. James and I have been married for three and one half years and are still having a lot of fun. we have been play some games on the computer called mob wars. We have to share computers because James Computers have all died!!! We haven't figured out why his computers are always targeted they seem to just up and die. But that is life when the going gets tough the tough get going I have to keep telling myself because other wise I would be to tired from fighting this thing that we call life.

The wonderful thing about life is you get to keep going tell you get it right most of the time. The focus this Christmas is to be grateful for what we have and we have a lot. I have the most beautiful family in the world, we have our health, a roof over our head, food to eat, and a very strong family support center. We can do anything with the family we have they are the most supportive and helpful I think that I could ever ask for.

I hope to have my Halloween pictures up soon. we had a lot of fun Courtney went to a trunk or treat at the church and then went trick or treating with a friend. I walked them around the neighborhood and they had a blast. William had fun and fell asleep in the jogger that I had when they got tired. It was so much fun. Courtney got way to much candy it is good that the she just saw the dentist and her teeth were perfect hopefully they stay that way.

I'm glad that everyone has read my blog. We had an exciting weekend, James' interview went well; he like the campus very much, and I thought the town was a cute little town. Lewisburg had some fun little historical sites and one of the four Carniage Halls that Mr. Carniage built. We are close to many historical sites which I would enjoy. Courtney and William stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Bishop, and from the sounds of it they had fun as they always do when they are with Grandparents. When Annette came to drop them off and leave, Courtney was not going to let grandma go or she was going with her. Courtney sure does love her Grandparents. Her favorite past time is calling Grandma Bishop and giving her a running commentary on what she is doing and where dad is taking her. William is being the cutest little boy he has been pulling the cutest little face, he scrunches up is nose and puckers his lips and makes breathing noises. He is crawling and being a busy body. I love being a mother, there is no greater calling then being a mother. I have the most beautiful children in the world, Yes, I am bias!!!

The Bishops

2008-10-03T22:07:00.000-07:00

We have had an exciting year here at the Bishop's Home! Just recently I had my bike stolen from SUU's Campus. The person had to cut through a thick bike lock to still it.

James loves his job at the hospital, he comes home telling about the surgery's they had at the hospital and after the surgery he tries to figure out what the body fragments are. He already sounds like a doctor. He has an interview in West Virginia on Oct. 13.

Work keeps me busy I have helped start two low-income clinics in Southern Utah and I help run the already existing clinics in cedar. When James and I aren't busy balancing time with my beautiful family, school, med school applications, work and exercise; we enjoy some quite time at home with the family. We get to enjoy visiting family every once in awhile.

My Children

If there were words to express the feelings and thoughts that I have for my children. I have always wanted to express my feelings like the great authors that I known, but here goes.

Courtney Ellen, my eldest! She is the most beautiful, intelligent, exuberant person I have ever meet. She is some much like me and yet some much like her father. I have watched her spend hours so concentrated on what she is trying to figure out and then have no attention spend the next minute. She is not a morning person much like her father, don't wake her up unless you are prepared to deal with a grump. Have I told you she is 2 and she has acted like this from the beginning. She is probably the most determined child I have ever known; I thought I had the corner on that trait. She is full of smiles and she is one of her mothers joys. I love to hear her laugh and to hear her say help me, help me! To her helping me way too much with the cleaning of the house which I really do love. She mimics her mother and that terrifies me to death.

William James, my smiley baby, I can walk into his room at 6:00 am and he is so excited to see me. He squeals and kicks his feet in the air. What I love about William being a morning child is that means while everyone else is a sleep my little men Mr. William gets mommy time. We get to share some alone time with each other it is hard to give him the attention that Courtney got from birth but we take those special moments. William is know 8 Months old and is crawling he is always on my heels crawling fast and to stay up with me. He pulls himself up to the tables. He hasn't developed as fast as Courtney with his motor skills but he is definitely a big boy! His head is still bigger but the rest of him is still big.
