IT's a ?????

So today was the day that we were finally able to find out what this baby is. It has been a long 2 weeks, knowing that my whole family new and I didn't. Well the wait is over. We are having a BOY and couldn't be more excited. Everthing looked really good. He is a little small, but nothing bad! I am so excited to have a little boy in this house again. I love finding out because it makes it a little more real!

Our Valentines Day!

We decided to spend Valentines at home with the kiddies! It was a very quiet and relaxing day. Poor Lauren ended up with Strep throat yesterday after school, so she has been miserable. I felt bad for her. I think the antibiotics are finally kicking in. We made Cafe Rio salads for dinner and ate by candlelight. The kids thought it was great. The girls and I dipped Strawberries in Chocolate for deseret. They were so yummy. It was a great evening. My sweet husband bought me new washer and dryer for valentines. He is so sweet. They are so awesome. Already I can do double the load in one load. They are great.
During the week Michelle and SAge came out and we decorated sugar cookies. It was so fun. Sage just wanted to lick the frosting. So glad this week is finally over. We do get to fund out what the baby is on Thursday. I have been so impressed with my families ability to keep such a great secret. Only a few more days and we can be filled in on the secret. Hope everyone had a great valentines day! Had to throw this in my for own records. 20 weeks and popped.


The beautiful dipped strawberries that the girls did.

Only half of the cookies we made. They were so yummy.

Girls Weekend!

All I have to say is, thank goodness that January is over. I really had a rough one. I feel like this baby is sucking the life out of me. Don't get me wrong, I am so excited for this baby, but I am exhausted and so mean! So I decided to get out of Utah and go to even colder weather in rexburg. Sometimes a girl just needs her Dad and Mom. So Michelle and the girls and I left on thursday and stayed until Monday. The whole weekend was so relaxing and just what I needed. We shopped, we ate and even went to a movie. That is something I haven't done in forever. We saw Bride wars and it was so cute. I loved it. We even were able to take a peek at the baby. It is perfect. It always so relieving to see that sweet baby moving. It was so active. Jeff wasn't there so he asked me not to find out what it was. I didn't find out, but my whole family knows. My mom does the ultrasounds, so she knew and then everyone knew. They had me so confused the whole weekend. So of course, if anyone is curious, you can call anyone in my family. Jeff and I find out this next week. We are excited to be surprised. I was really sad to leave. My parents took such good care of me and I love that they are still willing to do that. Thanks Mom and Dad it was the best.
As far sa everything else goes, we are pretty boring here. Jeff and I had to speak in church today and there is not a whole lot that terrifies me more than that. It has been a stressful week getting ready but it is over and we should be good for a while. The kids are keeping us busy. Hope everyone is doing well. Lets hope I can do better with this blog thing. This a 4D picture. The umbilical cord is right by its face, but it is a perfect picture of its little face.
