Fun surprises and Utah!

Well we had a really good time in Utah!  It was so nice to see family and friends!  Thanks to everyone who made time for us!  Love you guys!  I hardly took any pictures because we all got sick, but we did love being there!!

BEFORE 

AFTER 

I chopped my hair off and donated it!!  It is such a nice change (although it doesn't save me much time getting ready!) and I have loved it!  Thanks Susan!!

FINALLY ANNOUNCING

I'm 25 weeks pregnant!!  IT'S A GIRL!!  Having her March 1st!  Can't wait to have another little girl!  I will admit I'm terrified for 3, but there is no going back now! 

Love my family!  The girl in the middle wearing the white shirt is Johanna.  She is from Norway.  She is living with my family for the school year!  We loved getting to know her and the kids loved playing with her!  We can't wait for her and her family to come visit us in June!!

Ha ha.. finally hanging up our first pictures in our house!!  We have lived here since June, but with being very sick all summer I just didn't feel like it!!  I'm glad to finally have them hung up!  Thanks hunny!

The other night I went to Relief Society and came home to find both kids asleep in the family room.  This is a FIRST for Miranda.  She never falls asleep anywhere but her bed!!  Love it!  So cute!

Ian fixing his bike because it squeaks.  He was a little dissapointed that no matter what he did with that screwdriver it was still squeaky!!

HOME DEPOT 

Went to the free kids workshop they have the first Saturday of every month.  So fun!  Miranda built a spice rack.  She loved hammering the nails in (after I had done most of it of course) and she loves her apron!  I built hers wrong twice and they had to take it apart for me.  Guess I'm not that great at following instructions?  A lady next to me did the same thing so I didn't feel as uncapable!! =)

All smiles the whole time!

Ian built a fire boat.  He did a really good job hammering the nails in.  I would just get it started and he would finish it!

Both kids with their projects... they LOVED it!  We also got coupons for free doughnuts from Dunkin Doughnuts so after we were done building we headed over there and had a treat!!  What a fun, FREE, morning!

Where's Miranda? 

There she is! 

Her favorite new hiding spot!!

And this is the face of someone who just got home from taking his LAST FINAL!!!!!!

HORRAY!!  Good job hun!

And Ian and Nik are currently having a "daddy day".  Ian has been looking forward to this day for a long time!!  They went to Chick-fil-A and then to the park.  Nik also has a surprise waiting at home for Ian when they get home (thanks to me!).  It is a couple of little squishy frogs!  Ian loves little squishy animals!!

We are heading up to Utah for Thanksgiving and I can't wait to see everybody!!
