Girl: Outnumbered!: Baby Update

We had our second ultrasound this week and we have a healthy baby! One of the babies didn't keep growing, so there wasn't a heartbeat or anything, but, it shouldn't affect the healthy baby. I got to see a strong heartbeat and a baby about the size of a bean, it was so great! We are feeling so blessed to have a strong baby!

Also, I guess the measurements were off from the last ultrasound, so they changed the due date, the baby is due on January 3rd, which only increases the chances of having a Christmas baby. I, personally, hope, the baby is born long before Christmas, Alex was 4 1/2 weeks early and Wes was 3 1/2 weeks early, neither had any complications, so as far as I'm concerned, the last month is unnecessary. LOL

Anyway, yeah for baby!

We're glad you stopped by!

Thanks for visiting us! Since we don't see many of you often, here is a brief update:

Mike works as for a company in Springville as a Software QA Engineer Lead- it's hard to believe he's been with them for almost four years! He has been working really hard studying all kinds of programming languages and such, he is always learning and challenging himself. He is an amazing Primary teacher, he team teaches the CTR 5 class and Wes is happy to be in his Dad's class.

I am the luckiest wife and mom around, my boys are all amazing (all 4 of them, lol). With all the "boy energy" around I have to try to compensate by doing things like making our blog pink or flowery-lol. But they all do treat me like a princess, and, like I said, I'm the luckiest girl in the world! I am having an amazing time being a full time mom and working on my cookbooks on the side- go check out my cooking blog if you have a minute. I just finished up the season on a Women's Softball team and had the time of my life, it has been a long time since I've played an organized sport, I'm hooked again now! I just got called to the Relief Society presidency and am helping on the PTA board, I'm looking forward to all the adventures...at least I never get bored!

Alex is 7 and in second grade this year. He loves school and is doing soooo well academically, he's the kids everyone asks for help on the lessons. We are so excited that he's making friends and starting to be more interested in social things. Alex loves all things sports, swiming, baseball, soccer- he gets super intense about the rules and winning, but he's getting better at good sportsmanship. He will just drop and start "exercising" all the time, its great!

Wesley is almost 6, and in Kindergarten. We call him our crazy man because he is so full of energy no one can keep up with him. He is too big for his britches sometimes and wants to do everything his big brother does. He is growing into such a little man with very strong opinions and tons of questions about everything. Wesley is a thinker, he amazes me with the complex things he thinks through, comes up with his own conclusion and solves the problem in a creative way-just like his dad. He does enjoy playing sports with his brother, but is more into the running around and expending energy than the actual rules and purpose of the game- he is fun to watch though!

Adam is one and a half, I can hardly believe it! He has been such a blessing for us- his brothers shower him with love and attention. We just about lost him to a sever infection in the spring and it set him back quite a bit. He is strong and healthy now, although a little small and still trying to catch up developmentally. He learns new words and signs every day though and spends every minute trying to keep up with his brothers, he can climb any barrier we use to keep him contained, and is mastering the stairs and is getting more sure on his feet. He is developing his own distinct personality and starting to show strong preferences and opinions, he is so handsome he catches everyone's eye!
