Pretty in Pink

So after our family reunions I was SO lucky to have two aunts who gave me a ton of baby girl clothes. One of the boxes of clothes was amazing...perfect condition...and about 60% Ralph Lauren, a few Nautica, a few Baby Gap, Gymboree, and a few infant Little Me or Carters layettes. Pretty much I am so lucky because I am totally set with clothes for the first year. And not just any clothes...adorable clothes!!! After that, I'm sad to say she won't be wearing any more designer clothes. I got home and layed everything out and 90% of the clothes are pink...hope that is her color!
Now that I'm over 25 weeks and after getting all these clothes, it's really hitting me. So pretty much I am really excited to have a girl.

Reunion time

So we are finally home from our back-to-back family reunions...one to Lava Hot Springs, Idaho with Tom's family and the next to Aspen Grove in Utah with my family. We had an absolute blast!!!

At the Dance family reunion the boys played with their cousins Mason and Dallin non stop! Can you guess the theme of this reunion?

Our family is multiplying fast...it's so fun when we all get together!

Instant-grass

We finally have grass! They layed sod in the front, and the back is hydro-seed so we'll have to wait for that for a few more weeks. I know this isn't that exciting for most people but it is for me. No more dirt blowing in the front. No more kids digging in the dirt. No more dirt tracking into our house! Our porch can finally be used b/c it's not filthy. Yes, I am excited for grass.

Tom's project

So Tom has a lot of time on his hands these days. The first week was great having him around so much. The second week was okay but by the end of the week we decided the basement HAD to be finished. Not because we need the space, but because he needs a project. He was going nuts just hanging around the house with me. So now we're finishing our basement. He has read a lot on the internet and asked a bunch of people how to do it. He's in the middle of framing it right now. Then he'll figure out electrical/plumbing. Then the drywall, etc., etc.

It has given him a great project and given me some sanity as well.

Let's give it a try

So I have been getting tons of emails from people in the last few months with posts to their blogs and tonight I got on and spent over an hour looking at one blogspot and then following a link to another and another. Wow...what a great way to find out what is up with people from my past. It was so fun to see everyone's kids growing up and just to see where people are. So since we are starting a new chapter in our lives, I thought I'd give it a try. Here goes nothin...
