"Buddy Time"

Buddy Time
Last Saturday, Andrew took Brian up Little Cottonwood Canyon to enjoy the first day of Spring and nice weather. They started out with coats and ended up carrying them the day was so beautiful.
They were watching some snowboarders come zipping down the mountain and Brain said to Andrew, "Dad, look a goat!" Andrew kindly brushed him off and said wow buddy. Brian said 'Dad, look there's a goat." This time Andrew paid a little more attention and realized it was a MOOSE! He said to Brian, "Wow, Brian, that's a moose!" They got back down to the car and asked the snowboarders if they had seen it, they replied, No. Little did they know, they were only about 15 ft. from running over it coming down the mountain.
Brian taking a great shot of his dad.
My two special MEN.
The snow is still so packed up there, Brian is standing by the top railing of the bridge across the water.

They had a great day! Buddy time, bring it on. While they were out having a good time, I took the girl's shopping for a new Easter Dress. We decided, we need to do this more often.

Courtney's Nine!

Courtney's Nine!
3-3-10 Courtney is one of those kids that is happy all the time and never really asks for anything. She really only told me one thing she wanted for her birthday, which was an I dog. Something she could plug her i pod shuffle into and use as speakers. Needless to say, after 3 stores and calling around, Target had a couple, but not the one she wanted. But she was so happy to have gotten one, she didn't care.
Andrew took the day off, and we dropped a birthday treat off for her at her class. Later, we went back over to the school and had lunch in the cafeteria with all the girls. It was a fun day. When school got out, she had more presents, chicken leg dinner and yummy homemade chocolate cake.

Alyssa's First grade program
The theme for the program was Families. It began and Andrew hadn't gotten to the school yet. I could see the panic look on Alyssa's face and then the tears came. She sat there for about 1 minute crying and walked off the stage. (she was on the front row by the way) Her teacher walked over to her and I ran up front and told her I had just got off the phone with Andrew and he would be there in 2 minutes. She went back on stage, but didn't start singing until Dad walked through the door and everything was perfect. She sang her heart out and did her line perfect. Grandma Jones came to watch and hear her song on grandparents. It was a great show!



28 weeks Prego.

28 Weeks Prego
One night the baby was kicking so much you could see my whole stomach moving. I love that the kids want to feel and see and be part of this pregnancy, I think it makes it more real for them then to have us say, a baby will be here soon! It is a fun part about being the mom, is feeling the growth of the baby, that is the part about not being pregnant again that I will miss.

We went to the doctor this past week, and our little guy is growing like a weed.
He is weighing now at 2 1/2 lbs. and is 3 days a head of his due date. Needless to say, I feel like I will deliver him early like all the others. We are so grateful he is healthy and know that Heavenly Father has answered many prayers we have offered on his behalf. We love this little guy already and can't wait for him to join our family.
