What's New

Well I thought first I'd just do a little "what's new/catch up game' so I don't have like a "ka-gillion" (as Carson would say) posts. For anyone out there living under a rock that doesn't yet know, we are expecting another baby! Chris and I and the kids could not be more excited!!!! We don't know what we are having yet, we will actually find out next month right before Chris's birthday and yes I told him I am going to make him wait and find out as a birthday surprise. (We both know that I can not keep a secret so I'm sure that will not be the case). We did talk about it earlier today though and we are both totally fine, no preference either way as to the sex. Chris originally was thinking he would love another little girl, but Lilliana has been going through a "phase" (at least we are hoping) and she's been SUPER dramatic, and emotional so he's re-evaluating that choice. I love little boys, but my little girl is amazing too so I'm okay either way! The kids however are convinced it's a girl and they REALLY are hoping for a baby sister, especially Carson! If I had to take a guess today I would say boy, though unlike all the other pregnancies I'm having a rather hard time getting a good feeling either way, so day to day it changes. I am 4 months along now and our new little baby is due in Aug, actually at the end, the 28th, although I'm hoping that as usual I will be induced earlier than that.




Another bit of news, Chris and I after doing a lot of praying, fasting and pondering have come to the decision that continuing on the dental school path is not the right thing for our family. The Lord has confirmed that for us and we are ready to move on to bigger and better things, and just ready to move on with our life! This means that Chris is done with school and now in full search of a career. Unfortunately this decision has also fallen on the worst possible time for job hunting that we could have imagined with the economy the way it is and all those who are also out looking for jobs. We are trying to remain hopeful that something will come about shortly, and we are applying to jobs both in Texas and in Utah, sooo....if anyone hears about anything, by all means SHARE and keep us in mind!!!! We are looking at all of our possible options, do we stay here or do we move? Things at this point are still up in the air and undecided (a fact, that keeps me up at night). We will however have to be making our decisions SOON because Carson is due to start kindergarten in the fall and I am due to have a baby around that same time as well, and both require us to know where we will be living and what we will be doing. So keep us in your prayers and we will keep you all updated!



I think for this post that is going to do it. I will post more pics and stories soon so keep checking back!

Super Funny Kids Quotes!

New Quotes.:

I asked the kids if they wanted mommy to have another baby? They said yes so I asked Lilli if she would want a little brother, to which she replied, "We already have a little brother...it's over there."

Carson and I were playing Go Fish and as usual he beat me pretty bad ;), he quickly ran to tell daddy, "I cleaned the foor with mommy!"

I plan out the dinners for the month on a calander in the kitchen and Friday's are always pizza days. A few Friday's ago Carson was so excited ALL day for Pizza. He kept asking if it was time yet, I kept telling him it wasn't pizza time yet and finally when Chris got home from work Carson ran up to him and asked, "Daddy, NOW is it Pizza O'clock?" (translation, "is it Pizza time yet)

On the Fourth of July Chris and I took the kids to see the fireworks show and we were eager to see what Landon's reaction would be to them. As soon as they started, he got a little startled but it quickly turned to excitement and then he would point to them and say "POPCORN!"

We often drive by the new Cowboys stadium and Carson will ask about it we'll tell him it's where the Cowboys play football...the other day we went there to drop Chris and a few of my brothers off to watch a soccer game, and Carson asked about what they were going to watch, I said soccer this time not football. A week later at church when we were walking the halls Carson asks about the pictures of the Temples on the wall so we'll tell him they are Temples and explain about them and he turns to us and asks, "But what about the soccer Temple? Where's the picture of the soccer Temple?" (it's a BIG stadium and I guess to him it looked like it should be on the wall of Temples.)

We were going grocery shopping the other day, Carson asked where we were going and I told him to the food store. Right then we passed McDonalds and he asks me, "At McDonalds they sell food right?" I said yes and he asks, "If they sell food there, then it's a food store right?" I again say yes I suppose so, and he says, "Well if it's a food store, then maybe we should go there this time."

When we were in Utah Uncle Daniel would take the kids out on the trampoline every now and then. Once they were out there and Lilli was bothered that Carson was jummping and bouncing her all around so she tells him, Carson stop, you're making me bounce and Carson replied, "that's not my problem." (A little rude.)

We went to lunch one day to Paradise bakery and Chris and I got a bowl of creamy potato soup. We sat down started eating and the kids started inquiring about our soup. We said it was potato soup with cheese...Carson shoot up and said to Chris, "That sounds like my kind of soup!" (We were laughing hysterically!)
