Fun with Dad

The other day Daniel took the girls on a big long bike ride. They ended up riding their bikes to a Sporting goods store where they have rock climbing. Daniel said that both Ashley and Hailey did so good, they both made it to the top! While they were gone Ryan and I went on some errands! I got to go pick out some material so my mom can make me a blanket for the new one coming! I also just had to go and pick out a new outfit for the baby, I always have to go buy something after I find out what I am having!


Then on Saturday while I went to the RS Broadcast, Daniel took the kids for another fun adventure! They packed their backpacks and headed to the Light Rail! They rode the Light Rail downtown. They went out to eat, got ice cream and then went swimming at a hotel. The kids had a blast, no wonder they love their daddy so much! He always takes them to do fun stuff!

Here they are eating with their backpacks on!

Unexpected Ultra Sound

I had a Dr. appointment today and I was having some problems so they did an ultrasound. Well they were able to tell me that we are having a BOY! Yay I am so excited! They said everything is fine with the baby but I have Placenta Previa which means the placenta is over my cervix. So if it doesn't move I will have to have a C-section. I had this same thing with Ryan but it ended up moving, so there is a good chance it will move up! Anyway just thought we would let everyone know! We are all so happy it is going to be a boy! Our family will be perfectly even!

My little Super Hero

Ryan has been so into Batman and Superman lately! He makes me tie his blanket on him for a cape! Good thing Grandma Cottam is making him a real cape for his upcoming Birthday! He is so funny, the other day I told him that he wasn't Superman anymore that I was now, he looked at me funny and said "no you Super Mommy". He calls Hailey "Super Girl" and Ashley is his "Super Horsey". Today he also told me he wasn't Superman anymore that he changed into Batman with Super Powers! I love this boy he has such an imagination! He is always pretending! I can't believe how much he has grown up, he's not a baby anymore! Boohoo!

Eliches

On Saturday we took the kids to Eliches! We have season passes and figured this might be the last time we would be able to go! The kids love going on all the rides that they are big enough to! The more scary the better to them. I love theme parks and rides but of course I couldn't go on any rides because they make me sick to my stomach when I'm pregnant!

I have been meaning to do a post on this for a while! My nephew Kyle is in the Army and is leaving to Iraq this Thursday. He is such a great kid(well still my little kid nephew to me even though he is all grown up now)! He originally thought he wouldn't have to go to Iraq until next year but found out he had to leave a lot sooner. So him and his girl, Tara got married a few weeks ago! He is stationed in Fort Carson Colorado so he is about an hour away from us! On Saturday him and Tara came up to see us and say goodbye before he leaves. We are proud of him and we just love Tara! We had fun seeing them together and they are just so good for each other! Anyway I know a lot of you reading this knew Kyle when he was little so I just wanted to update on him!

This is a picture of them when Kyle was in basic training!

This is a picture I took of them in my front yard on Saturday!

Good Info

Hey everyone this is a good website that has a lot of good info on food storage and being prepared. Unfortunately you can't buy from this guy unless you live in Colorado. He is really nutty about things but has good info on other stuff. This guy is not LDS but he has came and spoke to many wards and says he really respects "Mormons" for wanting to be "Prepared"! We just bought 4 plastic drums from him to store water and grains in! You should check out his info on his website even if you don't live in Co! www.drum-runners.com

Weekend Trip

This weekend we went to the State Fair and boating at Lake Pueblo! Daniel's sister, Rachel and her baby came with us. The kids got to milk a cow at the fair and pet a lot of animals!

The next day we got the kids their own fishing poles and let them fish from the boat!

This was just a cool picture of a tree in the Lake with birds nests all over in it! There was tons of these trees just coming out of the lake.
