IT IS A...

BOY!

Prego Picture

Here you go ladies. My Prego picture for the day.

Well, it's that time...

I guess I'm THAT pregnant already. On Monday we have a doctor appointment and we will be able to find out the sex of the baby. So now here's your chance to guess whether it might be a girl or a boy!

Sweet girl

Here is our little lady

We went to a wedding up in Estes park. I got the nerve to attempt to curl her hair again. She slept in them all night and they turned out adorable!

A few weeks ago, something woke her up from her nap. She went straight to the bean bag and being still tired she fell asleep like this.

This was Sunday before we ran off to church.

She is growing up into a little girl. I can't believe it! She'll be two in the beginning of October!

6 Year Wedding Anniversary

Our Anniversary was on Saturday. Aaron and I dropped Caroline off at Grandma and Grandpa's house. She had a blast with them and Aunt Sarah. We did feel a little 'naked' without her all night, but I am so glad to have relatives close by. We went to dinner at The Melting Pot. It was an awesome experience. Four course meal. Fondue. Cheese. Chocolate. Yum. Then we went and saw the movie The Proposal with Sandra Bullock. There was a little more skin shown in that movie then I would have liked, but other than that it was funny. Everyone was laughing throughout the whole movie. We got the game Thurn and Taxis to have some bonding time together throughout this next year! I'm so glad I married a man who loves me so much. I love you Aaron.

Finishing up Aspen Grove

We had a family dance the night before we left. I knew I had to go for Caroline. She loves music and loves to dance. Overall it was great fun and we'll do it again or something similar in 2 years!

We were in a circle watching people dance. Is it called the mermaid when people belly flop across the dance floor? Caroline tried to imitate it later-it was funny. She tried to imitate a lot of different dances.

Another video of Caroline dancing. If you pause the music on the sidebar you will hear her scream with joy.

Changes

Us ladies often change our outfits 1 or 2 times before we step out of our room for the day, but on Sunday morning as I was getting ready for church I changed into 4 different blouses. Nothing just seemed to work. No big deal. But as I changed into my lounge clothes for Sunday afternoon I had to change into 3 different t-shirts. It was a real eye-opener to me that my body has changed. So I thought it was time to share that I'm pregnant and obviously showing. I'm 17 weeks and my due date is January 20th. We are very excited for this new one to join our family. We find out whether it is a boy or a girl in the beginning of September. Hopefully before we take off for our next road trip! I have had one ultrasound at 14 weeks and so far so good.

Frontier Land

There were Indians telling stories, store owners giving out candy, someone branding leather, another playing an organ, face painting, a conductor, some giving out snow cones, pretend horses to ride. Caroline loved it. And the pictures prove it.

Ringing the bell

Caroline's first experience getting her face painted. She got the same things Avery did: a heart and a shooting star.

Family Camp: Aspen Grove

My Mom and my Step Dad's family try to get together every 2 years. The last two years we have attended Aspen Grove in Provo Canyon, Utah. Mom made us a different colored CTR shirt to wear everyday. It is so fun to know where are group is at all times. Between the 2 parents there are 52 of us. Aaron was the only one unable to make it-although Lou took his spot. So if you can imagine... we have quite the group.

This is my sweet grandma. She turned 79 this year and has never dyed her hair.

I love you Logan!

Avery and Caroline loved playing under the dryer!

A couple of us standing around. Hi Lou!

Christopher and Caroline

Monday. The color was red. Can you tell?

My good looking brothers.

She just loves Logan

It's not the best picture of Avery, but I was surprised to see both Caroline and Cosette in her.
My sweet sisters

This is before the kids went to bed. We had one whole floor to our family and it also had a gathering area. It was usually crazy as you can see and hear in this video. The adults stayed up for hours playing games. We really had a great time. Thanks Mom and Terry! More days to come.
