Great Kids

Riley and Connor were very excited to get out of school early today. We have had a lot of snow and we are anticipating an ice storm today. We went home and then they worked really hard the rest of the day cleaning up and organizing their toys with us. They are all such great helpers. We sure are lucky to have them. We love to see those smiles. They are getting very excited for family to be coming to town. When we wrap a gift for someone, Megan asks "When will that person be here?" Then, when the doorbell rings she runs to the door saying "My friends are here." It is usually just a UPS delivery; soon it will be her friends. We look forward to seeing everyone that is able to travel our way for Christmas.

Happy 8th Birthday Connor!

We had a fun day at home for Connor's birthday. The boys played with all the new toys while Wyatt and I made meals and cake. The kids are growing up too fast. Connor will be baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints on Dec. 27. He is looking forward to that day. We appreciate all the gifts and those of you who were able to spend part of the day celebrating Connor's birthday. Happy Birthday Connor!!

Megan - My Entertainment

Megan is so much fun. She will use big vocabulary words correctly and we will just start laughing because it sounds funny coming out of a 3 year olds mouth. She wants to know what is so funny and then she starts laughing with us. She loves to dance to music and show off her things. You can see in the one picture she is showing her two Christmas trees. Connor gave her an early Christmas gift of a purple tree and she is loving life. The other picutres show what she does when I say smile. Then when I say open your eyes the smile goes away. She is working on getting the two of them down at the same time. We are so lucky to have a little girl. She adds so much to all of our lives.

Halloween at Disneyland

Disneyland was tons of fun. As you can see from the picture, Connor loved the more thrilling rides. Megan loved seeing the castle and trying all the different rides. She was a little disappointed when she could not go on certain rides. At first she would shade her eyes so she could limit what she saw. Riley was a little more careful about what he would ride, but in the end he LOVED every ride. It was so much fun watching the kids having so much fun. I wish we could do things like this more often. It was a real treat for all of us. We saw amazing firework shows each night from our hotel room balcony. We had a hard time adjusting to the time zone change and so we were up by 6:00 a.m. each day. I guess we made good use of our time there by getting up so early. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Mike.

It's a Boy!

The ultrasound says it is a boy. The other pictures we have clearly show that part. This is a picture of his profile. It is amazing how much you can see with ultrasounds these days. We have another ultrasound in a month to make sure the parts that looked abnormal will be okay. We are all very excited for a baby boy.

Flag Football

Riley and Connor just finished playing flag football. They wished it was tackle at times. Riley has the ball in the second picture. All the other shots are of Connor trying to do some blocking or get another players flag. Connor had two touchdowns the last game. It is fun when they play sports because we enjoy going out to watch them play. We were glad they were on the same team this year so we could both be at all the games.

Baby Number Four

We are expecting our fourth baby!! Megan took this picture along with many others, but we'll only share this one for now. :) The baby is due on March 16th. We have an ultrasound next week and we do not like the anticipation so we are going to find out if it will be a boy or a girl if they can tell. Both will be a blessing for all of us. All of us are very excited. The kids have questions everyday about it. This baby decided it would be nice to have me experience the morning sickness thing. YUCK! It is finally over so needless to say that is why you are receiving this post.
