BIG News

Ok everyone, we have a BIG announcement.......we're expecting and it's gonna be a BOY!!!! Yes, for those of you that didn't know we are due (according to the doctor's calculations) on 12/25 and now according to the ultrasound 12/20. So, hopefully he will following in his sisters' footsteps and come at least 2 weeks early! I was stunned when the tech told me "it's going to be a boy"! I was fully expecting a girl. But now I'm not sure how a little boy will handle this house FULL of girls! Paul said he wanted a girl, but now that he's had a day he's getting more excited about a boy! Now he will have someone to go hunting with him (hopefully)! We still can't agree on a name, but Paul keeps telling me that we still have a while to decide. I just want it agreed upon! Any suggestions(not totally bizzar) I would love to hear them!

3 smiling girls

Here are my 3 smiling girls! We went to Orem on Saturday and met Grandma and Sonja(Songia) there. We had the girls' pictures taken at Kiddie Kandids (the best) and then had lunch. The next day (Sunday) was Sonja's birthday so we were excited to give her her gift. Then we shopped a little and left the mall! Grandma and Sonja went home, but not us. We pressed on, all girls out shopping for the day! We went on the Target! Emma and Kassidy each got a really cute outfit for school and then we all needed some popcorn! Then on to more stores and more shoe shopping! I have trained all of my girls to L-O-V-E shoes! And the most fun is shopping for them! In fact, we came home with 5 pairs of shoes! And we even made it home before daddy got home from work (8:45) A job well done!

I love pictures of them like this! They are so cute and clean and "put together"! They don't always look like this! We try, but they never stay this way! But then I love it when they have been playing hard and get all sweaty and rosy cheeked! I love these cute girls!

Little Fishies!

Well, swimming lessons are over...that's good and bad. Kass and Emma took them in Manti this year and absolutly loved them! But it wasn't the most fun driving to Manti each time (espically with the road construction between Ephraim and Manti) about a 2 hour round trip with lesson and travel time! But we carpooled with Holly Cook and so I only had to drive every other day! Those kids had so much fun! The girls learned sooo much and Emma is no longer afraid to put her face under the water and Kassidy learned to swim with her face in the water and when and how to bring it up to take breaths. They did awesome!

Addison, Kassidy, Cassi Cook, Emma

Here they all were "patiently" waiting for the cars to move through construction. It turned into a game for everyone to guess what time we would actually get to the pool. And here is one of the cutest boys ever, Kassidy's friend, Chandler Cook.
