We're having a....

Well I had my ultrasound today and for some reason I was really nervous... I don't know if it was just because I wanted everything to turn out fine (which it did) or if I was nervous to find out what we were having (which I did), but I was just a ball of nerves. My appointment was for 3:00 and Tyler showed up at 3:15 and the ultrasound lady kept coming out and saying is he here yet, just adding to my nerves because he was late. In the mean time Abby is asleep on my lap because she isn't feeling well so I am wondering what am I going to do with her when they tell me that we can't wait any longer. She woke up and the technician said that we needed to get started and i decided that was fine because I really had to go to the bathroom. We got in the room she checked my ovaries and bladder, let me go to the bathroom and Tyler finally appeared. I don't have a scanner but all the ultrasound pictures are kind of crazy because this baby would not hold still everything looked good and healthy the only thing she couldn't tell for sure on were toes and the babies fingers because it's hands were in a fist pretty much the whole time. What an awesome thing it is to be able to check on your baby while it's still growing and developing inside of you....and also to see the most important parts, this baby has a few extra so in case you haven't guessed yet our new baby will be a.......













BOY!!!

So I am excited but now I have a whole new set of nerves, I am not sure what to do with a boy but we will figure it out!

Much needed updates!!

Well we will pretend that in the last five months nothing exciting has happened not Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Years ok? I will give a brief recap, at the end of summer we had two brief mini vacations one to Boise and one to Salt Lake. We stayed with Eric and Hilary in Boise and had an awesome time and we stayed at a hotel in Utah and enjoyed the Hogle Zoo and shopping for my birthday weekend. Abby was an adorable lady bug for Halloween, we went to boo at the zoo and fought the crowds with my nieces and nephew. This year for Thanksgiving we got to spend some time with Travis and Kim and family it was a full house but tons of fun. We also had family pictures taken and they turned out beautifully! Troy and Laura also came down for Thanksgiving so we had the best of both worlds. It's hard trying to divide time when you have two awesome families to pick from but hopefully we spent enough time with both of them! Christmas this year was interesting, all Abby wanted this year was a kitchen, so every present she opened she would say Is this my kitchen? then be kind of grumpy when it wasn't. Eventually we showed her the kitchen she didn't even take off the sheet she just looked under it and went Ahhhh MY KITCHEN!!! It was priceless and all captured on film:) We spent New Years at home playing games with Dece and Grant while the boys played video games downstairs all night it was a ton of fun and my stomach hurt the next day from laughing so hard!! Sorry that it took so long I will try to be more diligent with updates because it is hard once you let it go so long.
