Elsie starts dance

My little baby started her first dance class this week. She may only be 2.5 but she is more than ready. After watching her sister take dance for a year and then start gymnastics she was ready for it to be her turn. She is in a ballet class and is doing awesome. She loves her class and teacher and gets to take it with her friend Lydia. She is the smallest in the class but whats new for our family. She rocks it though after watching her sister and always practicing with her. I cant wait until her first recital in December. She is going to be so cute. She is quite the crazy girl but really listens and tries to learn in class. We just cant get enough of our little dancer

Baby #3

Well we found out the beginning of May that we were expecting. We were really excited but shocked at the same. So far this pregnancy has been hard though I have been really sick everyday and with two little girls that need a lot of attention it has been difficult. Plus we wanted to keep it a secret from everyone until we knew what we were having. Through all of it though Andie has learned to be more independent and help take care of her sister while Elsie goes and gets my pills and comes and rubs my back while I sit over the toilet. She always tells me she is sorry that I am sick and gives me hugs which really do make me feel better. Well at my 16 week appointment we found out we were having a BOY! My doctor is pretty much amazing and gives me lots of ultrasounds just because. As a result Adam wasn't even at the appointment but I was so excited to tell him. We ended up meeting for lunch at Olive Garden since his mom was in town and I was able to share the exciting news. He was so excited you couldn't wipe the smile off of his face. My due date is January 9, 2013. We are anxiously awaiting this little guy and cant wait for the big changes a boy will add to our family. We really do feel blessed.

Here is the one and only picture I have of me being pregnant. I am 18 weeks along in this picture.

Camping 2012

The girls love to camp! They definitely got that from their dad. I love camping also but only when I have a trailer or cabin to sleep in. I just love my sleep and a real toilet. Call me a party pooper but I just enjoy it a lot more when we go with my parents and stay in their trailer. We always have a good time though. Its nice that my parents are always willing to come to Utah to camp. Plus my dad and Adam always get mountian biking time in which they love. I guess it really wouldnt be summer without a lot of family time and camping!

Petting Zoo

We went with my mom to the petting zoo which is one of the girls favorite things to do when we go visit. Then grandma took us all for ice cream after. These two definitely get spoiled when they go visit grandma!

Caleb's Graduation

While I was in Idaho for my niece's birth I was also able to go with my parents to my brothers graduation at BYUI. Let me say it was quite an event. It was almost four hours long and I was more than ready to leave by the time it was over. Sitting that long while being pregnant is not very fun. I was glad I went though and very proud of him. Now I just have to convince him to find a job in Utah so we can see him more. Congrats Brother!
