Fun at Grandma's











Last night the girls got to make doughnuts with Grandma Bonnie after we had Sunday dinner. I had never even tried these before but they were so easy and really good. All she did was use the premade biscuits like Pillsbury and gave them each a frosting tip to cut a small hole in the middle. Then she fried them in oil and when they were done we let them sit on a paper towel until the grease was mostly gone. Then the fun part started. They each got a bag with cinnamon and sugar in it and they got to shake all the doughnuts. They were SO good!

Rock Springs

This weekend we packed up and headed to Rock Springs, Wyoming for our niece's birthday party. It is a LONG drive. It was about 9 hours to get there. Our portable dvd player wasn't with us, but our kids were actually really good. It was pretty cold there and the day we left it was snowing! We had a really good time visiting with Aaron's family and bowling for the party. Here are a few pictures of our visit. Thanks Shannon for all the good food!

Soccer







Last night was the first soccer practice for Madison. This year our Stake is doing a free soccer league. It was fun to watch her learn how to play. She did pretty good for never having played soccer before except for one small class at the rec center. She kept putting her finger in her mouth and I thought she was just being shy or something until I figured out that she was wiggling her lose tooth! She wants it to fall out so bad but is too scared to let me pull on it. The pictures are really bad because I had to take them with my phone because I can't find my camera charger. Hopefully I find it soon because I've missed alot of Kodak moments.

It's another one!

the money shot
her legs were all stretched out straight

her profile(she turned a little so it looks weird)


her arms are covering her face



Well we went to the doctor today for our ultrasound and found out we are having another girl! Right when she went to look I knew exactly what it was. I've seen that twice before! lol She said well... And I finished for her and said "it's a girl" and I could see the disapointment on Aaron's face. No I'm kidding. I'm sure he was a little sad but he really didn't care. Our little girls are so fun that adding one more won't matter. Maybe next time will be the boy. Aaron says we are done but when we were married he also said he would only have 2 and now we are on number 3 so I'm guessing I can convince him to have one more. So now I have a question and I hope I don't offend or make anyone uncomfortable. I'm just curious. The girl wrote on the ultrasound "No pee pee" Well I thought we all had pee pee's and that there just wasn't a wee wee. LOL Am I wrong? What's funny is my friend and I had a similar text conversation about this exact thing. I texted I was nervous for my ultrasound and she wrote back "Why scared no pee pee?" and I wrote back "Scared no wee wee" Then she wrote "Wee wee, pee pee, same thing" So here's my question is it wee wee or pee pee?

First Day of School







It's official. My baby is in kindergarten! Usually it is hard to wake Madison up, but the first day of school she got a huge grin on her face and gave me a giant hug. I was all prepared for her to be nervous and want me to walk her all the way and kiss her good bye at the door, but I was WRONG. Lol. I didn't know where to go so I just followed the teachers in the parking lot directing traffic and I ended up where you just drop them at the curb. I was trying to figure out if I could go park and Madison saw Jackson from church and quickly said good bye mom and hopped out of the car. I hurried and parked and ran to where she was playing on the playground. I yelled to her so she could see that I was there and that I hadn't just left her. She looked at me with this weird look on her face. It wasn't a happy face. She got off the playground came running over to me and I thought she wanted a hug. I bent over and she pushed me and told me to get away! That is pretty sad that she is already embarrassed of me. She did apologize later for doing it, but it went like this. "I'm sorry for pushing you, but I didn't want you there."

Fat Already

I'm only 9 weeks and I already have a belly! It was like all the sudden I woke up and there it was. My husband keeps teasing me about having twins because he has like 3 or 4 sets of twins in his family, but don't I have to have twins on my side? I'm not sure how that works. I've read that with each subsequent pregnancy that you can show faster. So my question for everyone(probably like 5 people that actually read my blog. lol) is, Did you show sooner with your 2nd, 3rd, etc... pregnancies? And the previous question..Do I need to have twins on my side? Not that I wouldn't love whatever I got, but twins would be hard. We would have to buy a new car just to fit us all. Not to mention double the diapers, double the clothes, and double the breast feeding(if I could handle it)! If you can't tell I'm freaking out about this. LOL
