Maui

Maui....one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to! Jeremy and I were able to spend a week in Maui for our 10 year anniversary. We missed our kids like crazy, but it was so nice to just be able to spend time together as a couple. We had a blast together, filling our days with snorkeling, beaching, site seeing, pool lying, and hiking. It was perfect! The beaches were so beautiful and you could snorkel at almost every one. We were able to see all kinds of beautiful fish snorkeling and were even able to see some sea turtles, an octopus, and an eel. We were also able to see some whales and even a few dolphins. We loved playing in the waves and just enjoying the sun. If anyone is looking to go on vacation....you need to go here. We ended up taking like 400 pictures, so I will try not to post too many. It was the perfect place to spend out 10th anniversary and I feel so blessed that we were able to take this trip together. Every day I am grateful that I married my best friend. Happy Anniversary...I love you!

First Tooth

My baby is growing so fast. Okay...he's not a baby, he's a big boy, but it seems like the time is just flying by so fast. Michael just lost his first tooth two weeks ago. He was a little nervous, but was very brave when he daddy helped him pull it out. He couldn't wait for the tooth fairy to come and bring him some money. He is saving up to buy "Ippy Ippy Jones" (translated as Indiana Jones on the Wii). His other bottom tooth is also loose, so I'm sure he will loose that one soon. Another milestone reached for my guy!

The Fun Never Stops

I just can't keep up with this blogging thing...but I did want to post some fun activities we have done the past couple months. We took the boys up to Logan to see the Utah State Aggies basketball team play. They had a great time and were obsessed with finding and pointing out Big Blue. We have also taken them to the Planetarium in Salt Lake and they had a blast there running around and playing on "mars" and the "moon". Michael and Bryce were also able to go to the firestation with his preschool and they thought it was "pretty cool" to sit in the big fire truck!

Thank Heaven For Little......

Girls! We are having a little girl on July 24th. I am so excited. I guess I should say that we are all excited. Even the boys wanted to have a little girl. I really can barely contain myself. I just want to go out and buy all these cute little girl outfits. Luckily our finances don't allow that or I might go crazy with all the cute girly stuff out there. The doctor said that the baby is looking great and I will have another ultrasound in 8 weeks. I am also starting to feel a little better. I haven't thrown up in 5 days! The constant nausea is draining but I am starting to feel like a normal human again. I am just so happy!!!!

Valentines

Happy Valentine's Day from my two favorite people!

Best Winter Ever

I think this winter was designed just for me. It has been beautiful and the kids and I have been playing outside almost everyday this winter. Normally I dread winter and find myself in the doldrums from being cooped up indoors and not being able to see the sunshine, but not this winter. It has been sunny and warm enough that the kids and I have still gone to the park and played on our swing set almost daily. We even have our trampoline still up...which is wonderful. I let the kids bounce out their wiggles in the afternoon. I know that we need the moisture and Jeremy is dying for some snow to go sledding and skiing in...but I am so so thankful that it has been a nice mellow winter full of sunshine. It is amazing how the sunshine just brightens my mood. I definitely am a sun child and could bask in the sun all my life!

And on another note...we took the kids to the car show and they had a blast checking out and sitting in the different cars and trucks. There was even an area where the kids could drive their own power wheels. They might have had more fun then Jeremy.

New Fashion Style

So, this year I will be sporting a new fashion......the pregnant belly! Yep, my ego is prego and we are expecting our third on July 22nd. We are very excited and I'm already dying to know what it is! I kind-of think it's a girl, only because my face is all broken out and all I want to drink is soda or orange juice (both awful things to throw up!). I have been sick and throwing up daily for the past 2 1/2 months, but it's worth it. I just keep telling myself that that is the baby's way of telling me it's still here. The boys are so excited and Michael wants to have a baby girl and Bryce wants to have a baby boy. And regardless of the gender, they want to name it Nemo. So, we'll see how that goes!
