So, the day has finally come.....

We found out what we are having today!!!!!! It's so exciting! I can't wait to start shopping and working on the room. The entire time, I felt that we were having a boy. I have still felt pretty good this pregnancy but different than Reag, but much more nauseous (still no throw-ups thank goodness), much more tired, and MUCH more irritable, especially to a certain 3-year old. Reagan also thought boy this whole time, and I thought, hey maybe she knows something! :) Then the last few weeks, she has only wanted a girl, so much that I even started to doubt. But in the end, she was wrong and we are having a BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE COULD NOT BE HAPPIER!!!!!!!!!! They put the "It's A Boy" on the screen and I just screamed (quietly) and Nick just beamed like crazy!!! We told Reag and she literally started crying and saying she wanted a girl. Seriously!! Oh well though, she'll get over it and we finally get our Hunter Nicholas. We have wanted to use that name for 5 years!!! Really! And thankfully, it hasn't gotten used yet, which is a huge fete in Nick's family. We have definately gotten left in the dust compared to cousins. Anyways, we are so excited and can't wait. Which, P.S. is the understatement of the century!

I LOVE Preschool




And thankfully, Reagan does too! She started a few weeks ago and loves it. The other day she wasn't feeling good and I told her that she couldn't go if she was sick, and she immediately felt better! Funny that way! Some of the kids from our old ward are in it, so she feels really comfortable and the teacher is great. She comes home every day with crafts and pictures and lots of stories to tell me. And I love having 5 hours a week to get things done!! I just can't believe that she's already in school! Time goes by way too fast!

Labor Day Weekend





We had such a blast this Labor Day Weekend. We went up to Logan, Ut and Preston, Id and played with a ton of Nick's family. It's all of our cousins that we LOVE and the area is BEAUTIFUL!!!! I always say I'd move up there any day of the week! Anyways, we had so much. We always stop by the Pepperidge Farm Factory and get fishies for Reagan and cookies for us. We also got to snack on yummy penny-candies all weekend! What more can you ask for??! We played games rode horses, ate yummy dutch-oven, slept in, rode 4-wheelers, Nick hunted, and we got to see a brand new baby cousin that was only 2 days old. It was such a great weekend! We love going up there and this time was no different! Thanks everyone!!!! We love you!!

Summer Fun




I know I've been such a slacker lately, but we've been crazy busy. Didn't you think you'd have all the time in the world after you became a stay-at-home mom?? I did!! That has been a rude awakening, one that I'm still trying to get used to. Anyways! We've had fun the last few weeks. There's a picture here of Reagan and her friend Tayton at the pool. That's the rec center pool that saved us all summer. Thankfully it wasn't too far from home or too expensive and it's super kid-friendly. We love it!! I also got to have a playdate with my good friend Colette and get to see her sweet new baby! Both of her kids are so adorable. It was too fun to catch up and have our kids entertained at the same time. Thanks Colette and for the yummy food!!
