Long week



So this past week started off as a long one. Poor little Zane got sick and spent most of his week crying and in mommy's arms. Then of course after Zane was well, Tyler caught the same bug. BUT I think we have finally got everyone better for the moment.


Zane loves to play with my hair and I finally asked his cousin if she had a doll with soft hair that he could use in hopes of replacing me. Instead she gave him this cute little donkey that is sooo soft. He loves it and now cuddles it in bed, (but still needs my hair). It was worth a shot.

IT'S PINK!!!!



We had our ultrasound on Thursday and found out we are having a girl. It was fun because my buddy Matt Compton who is doing a rotation with Dr. Leavitt came in first and taught me how to use the ultrasound. I was thinking it was probably a girl because I didn't see any of the "stuff" that I remember seeing when Lisa had the ultrasounds for the boys. Then Dr. Leavitt came in and confirmed that it was a girl. We are both excited but I am kind of scared. I just don't know what to do with a girl! I know she will be cute and fun and everything but what happens when she is teenager? I am going to have start practicing now so I can be very intimidating by the time she starts to be interested in boys.

Anyway, Lisa is already squeeking with excitement when she looks through some baby clothes we got from our sister in-law. I guess I need to stop being terrified about raising a teenage girl and start getting excited about our beautiful baby girl. I figure I will hopefully be the most important man in her life for at least a few years!

Boring update

Ok, so since starting this blog I've realized a few things.....
1. I always forget to take pictures of anything we do
2. My life is either very boring or I'm not creative
3. Anything and everything goes..

So since I haven't blogged for a while here are a few of the things that have happened lately.

I took a quick trip to Twin Falls to see a very good friend Jolynn that I haven't seen in YEARS. We chatted and had a fun time catching up on our lives and our families. My scheduled ultrasound was rescheduled to later this week. We don't know whether we would rather have a boy or girl, I think it depends on the day. Today we think a boy would be great, we know boys! My big brother Kyle graduated from pharmacy school and we all got together for a picnic and to celebrate. (Congrats Kyle!)
Mothers Day was great, I didn't have to cook all day! We went to my nephews baby blessing, who by the way is soooo cute, and then later that night we had dinner with our neighbors. So for me it was a great relaxing day.

Update on pregnancy, still tired and still plagued with the constant migraine, sinus headache, or just plain headache. I've never had so many migraines in my life. It makes for a long day of trying extra hard to be kind to my kids, eat food that will stay down and longing for the minute my husband comes home to help me.

So Thursday is the big day for the ultrasound, wish us luck that we don't get rescheduled again!

Bears Here We Come






So Saturday was a great day to take a little visit to Bear World. Bear World is just outside of Rexburg. Its a little park that you can drive through and see elk, deer, and bears roaming free. As you drive throught the park they tell you to keep your windows rolled up, don't stop, and don't feed the bears!

At first the boys weren't sure what to think of the big huge animals walking around outside their car window. Zane was scared at first, but then seemed to think the bears were cute! He would point to a bear and say "Oh cute!". Tyler thought the bears were really bug and neat. After we drove throught the park we signed up for the tour where you get to feed the bears and have them come up to the truck. It was really neat! The kids loved to feed the bears and the bears have learned that if they stand on their back feet and wave, that people will throw them food. At the end of the tour Tyler turned to me and said " The bears don't growl, they just wave."

The fun was far from over after that, we got to pet a baby bear, go to a petting zoo, and the funnest of all for the boys..... rides! They loved going to the roller coaster, the bumpy car ride, and the train to name a few. The rides were just the right size for small children and they just couldn't get enough. They went from ride to ride all day until we finally decided it was time to go. It was quite the fight to get them to the car but as soon as we got going they crashed (so did mommy!).

If you've never been to Bear World, I totally recommend taking kids, they will love it.!
