Hunting Season!

Well it's that lovely time of the year when I rarely get to spend time with my husband. With all the hunts one after another, I am ready for it to be done. Only one more week of deer hunt! If only he could get his on opening day then spend the rest of his time off at home with the kids and I. It just doesn't work out that way though. Needless to say, Shane is having a blast. And I guess that's all that matters right? What else is new with us? So far we have managed to avoid getting any sickness at our house. But I'm sure we are due anytime! It seems to be going around and hitting everyone. So hopefully we can steer clear of it or only catch a mild case! I've got less than 6 weeks of being pregnant left and my energy is already running low, so I'm not sure I'm up to dealing with a sick family!

Craft Fair

I will be at the Legacy House Craft Fair in Logan this coming Saturday the 17th, as a vendor selling vinyl lettering. I've received lots of orders this month so far, with all the upcoming holidays! So for any of you interested in some great ideas for the holidays, or have a project for your house, come stop by the craft fair! There should be lots of other vendors, door prizes, plus refreshments. So take a girls day out, bring a friend, and spread the word!

Life these days

Well I haven't been very good at keeping this blog updated lately. So here is an update on what we've been up to. School is going good for Shane, his first set of classes are almost done! We've also joined the farming business by buying two calfs this fall. Shane has been having a blast with this. We should have done it along time ago! Now if we can just get them through the winter. Bricker is still loving preschool, he has already learned how to write his own name by himself. I was very impressed! Madelyn and I have been having fun at home. She has become good friends with one of our neighbors and asks first thing every morning if she can go play with "her friend". As for baby #3, things are still going well. Finally into the last trimester! YEAH! Still no sickness, but starting to hit the uncomfortable stage of things. Doc says I still measure big, so we will see what happens. As long as we don't have another 9 pounder!

Back to School

We are getting smarter at our house, we have officially started school again. Bricker is on his 3rd week of preschool and loving it. I get a little lonely at home without him, but it is fun to have the one on one time with Madelyn. And Shane has started his Master's Degree. I asked him for a 1 year break before he started the program, and man time flew! So here we go again forking out lots of money for school, but I know in the long run it will be a good thing for our family.

New Pictures of Kids

We decided we needed some new pictures of the kids together cause our old ones are so outdated. So Shane took it on himself to take some pictures of them, and he did a pretty good job. These are some of my favorites... And lets not forget Skeeter, he is always with the kids, so Shane thought he needed to throw him in a few pictures.And this last one was our biggest purchase of the summer, and will be our last big purchase for awhile! Shane just had to have it, so I told him he better be happy with it cause no more toys for a long time!

It's a boy... Something to be proud of!

Well we had our ultrasound yesterday and found out we are having a BOY! We are SUPER excited. Both Bricker & Madelyn came with us to see their new baby in moms belly. They found it pretty interesting, but when it was all over and we were walking out of the ultrasound room, Bricker asked where his new baby was. He thought we were going there to pick up his new baby and bring him home! We all had to laugh even the ultrasound tech. Here's a picture for you all. There is no doubt he's a boy! The doctor said he is one proud boy! I even measured for one week ahead of what we thought! One less week sounds great to me, but the doc said we will have to wait and see how I keep measuring before we change my due date :(

Summer Fun

We have been keeping busy this summer. Last weekend we took a camping trip over to Bear Lake. It was great, but it sure was hot! The kids had a blast this year, they played in the sand and water all day. We were even lucky enough to come home with no sunburns!! We also took a trip to the Dinosaur Park in Ogden this week, which will probably be Bricker's favorite thing we did all summer. He is the Dinosaur man, loves them. He would only take his picture next to the "happy ones", as he called them. On the way home he asked if we could get all the pictures done, so he could show his dad that night. So we stopped at good old Walmart, developed the pictures, and stayed up until 11pm until dad got home. Thanks Grandma Oberg for a great day, the kids loved it!
The best thing for mom about summer fun is at the end of the day I usually have worn out kids! This is how I found Madelyn in her room.
