May

Since May is almost over I need to give a month update. Sorry I haven't posted any pictures, my computer has issues and James doesn't have a memory card slot. So I just need to get down to the store and buy one... So anyway, this month was pretty busy. The kids went to their first dentist appointments, and came away with no cavities! I for sure thought that Andee was going to have atleast 6, but luckily none. And I was so surprised at how well she did, she just laid there, watched her movie and obeyed orders, so I was very glad. Nick on the other hand wanted nothing to do with the moving chair, but he did let Blair (James uncle is our dentist) look at his teeth.

Mother's Day was wonderful. James got a little excited and celebrated it a week early thinking it was then, but he got me 2 new books to tide me over till Breaking Dawn comes out, and then he had the kids each bring me a gift with a card. And that Saturday I was having a prego emotional day so the cards were the cutest things I've ever had, balling my eyes out over them. Then the following week, for the real Mother Day, James went and got me 4 new books since in that past week I finished the 2 he got me. One of which was the "Host", which I'll have to admit at first I didn't like it because I was expecting something completely different but towards the end I absolutely loved it!

Andee gave her first talk 2 Sundays ago in primary. Which was the cutest thing I've ever seen. I couldn't stop laughing though because she surprised us all when she walked right up to the podium and started jabbering away. James couldn't get her to stop. You only could get a few words out, like "family", "prayer" and then of course "AMEN!" but holy cow it was so cute.

We've had a lot of fun at our Den meetings. This month we made a catapult and a toolbox that the boys absolutely loved. I'll have pictures later.

Mary, our boxer, has only 3 more weeks left in her pregnancy. We figured she'll be having them around June 24. Our anniversary is the 27th, and then my ultra sound will be on July 1st or 2nd. So it's going to be a busy week, I'm so excited!

This past weekend the kids and I went to stay over at my sisters house so they could enjoy a weekend get-away. The kids had a lot of fun playing together. Nick was my little pill though, picking fights with his cousin Addison. Since she reacts to him, it was like a game to him to see how mad he could make her. So let me just say, we had a lot of time outs..hehe. And now Andee is having Addison and Aubree withdraws. Whenever I say "lets go outside" she always says "Addy's house?" and then has a pout party. It's pretty cute.

Only 64 days till Breaking Dawn is released!!!

update

Well I haven't posted in awhile so I decided I'd better let everyone know what we've been not up to.
First of all for those of you who didn't get it from my comments, yes I am pregnant, due November 19th. And we're really excited to have another little one around but I'm just really nervous, 3 little ones, kind of scary. We find out the sex at the end of next month so I'm really excited to know. But I'm pretty sure that's it going to be a girl, we'll see. And I'm just glad that my morning sickness is over. It lasted 1 month too long. This was the worst morning sickness combining all 3 pregnancies. I was sick all day every day for 30 days, so yes very glad it's over.
Nicholas is no longer in his "Kids on the Move" program, he graduated since he's at his age appropriate level. Those of you who don't know what that is, Kids on the Move is a program where they come to your home and help your child with motor skills, and cognitive skills.
James got accepted into the American Express internship program, so he started that on May 1st and is really excited for the new opportunities it's going to bring. He finally has a normal shift now, 9-6, which is the first time in 2 years he's had that, so I'm excited.
The reason I haven't posted in awhile is my sister got me into reading the "Twilight" series and holy crap, it has consumed me. 86 more days until the 4th book comes out, I'm so excited! I'm reading all 3 books over again to pass the time. And Liz and I are already making plans for December 12 so we can carpool to see the movie!! So excited.
So Max our dog, only has one testical, so we figured that's why we haven't had any puppies from Mary, because she's over a year now. But we soon just realized that she hadn't gone into heat yet, and last Friday we got some evidence that we may be getting puppies in a little bit. And sure enough, she has very definite nipples, so yes, we will be having Boxer puppies. I was so hoping we would be in our own place by that time, but it's looking more on the no side of that. So poor Barbara and Floyd, they've had to deal with 2 boxers barking, now they'll have a few more. But I'm excited, because I told James I want to keep one of the puppies, and of course he's definitely not excited about that, so we'll see.
And sorry no pictures, we haven't really done much outside since Utah still is having a really cold spring. So hopefully that will end soon and we can go outside more, or else I'm moving to Arizona.
