And Soon There Will Be 4!

Wow, that seems a little crazy to say out loud. A family of 4 is like a real live family! So yes, we are totally going to have 4, and we are so excited. We have been more excited about this baby than we ever were about Savannah!

ETA - which I posted this last time and still tons of you asked when I was due, so FYI - ETA means Estimated Time of Arrival.

ETA is June 30, 2009. Common questions that arise after this is known:

They will be 16 months apart.
We are hoping for a boy. (Having 2 girls 16 mos apart seems like a lot of drama!)
We will totally be excited about a girl too.
Nathan or Emily.
I am 9 weeks along.
It was TOTALLY planned.
I feel great.
Todd is so excited and has been ready for months now!
It's perfect timing for my job.

Well that's about it. No pic this time. The second time around definitely feels different than the first. I opened up "What To Expect When You're Expecting" just because I felt guilty I hadn't yet. But hardly read a word. It's actually kind of nice. Went to the Dr. Didn't have really any questions. And now we are just counting down the days. Which by the way seems like it might last forever this time! Did any of you have any of these same problems? With the second or third or fourth?

Camping in the Kiabab




Recently we went on Jenny's deer hunt to Arizona in the Kiabab forest. We were in a camp trailer but it still got pretty cold at night. Since we are the kind of parents who are going to have our kids sweating instead of shivering this is how we dressed Savannah to brave the cold! We thought it looked so cute when we were done we couldn't help but take a picture. And yes, of course, these are the only pictures we took the entire time! But really, isn't she so cute! She slept soundly through the entire night everytime! We felt pretty lucky!

I'm Totally Serious

Okay does anyone have any ideas for a fat-free, sugar-free, calorie-free, carb-free snack? And I don't want anymore water and I don't like the Miracle Noodles. I would appreciate any and all help in this matter. I am really counting on you guys to come through for me. Yours Truly, Jen.

Long Time No Post

We have been kind of busy this past month, but haven't neglected to take some pictures. But funny thing, as we were looking through which pictures to post - we only have some of Savannah! But she is the cutest member of our family so rightfully so!


We did take some pictures of the snow we got. Early October we got a snow storm and although it wasn't like Burley's it was pretty tragic! Most all our flowers were still in full bloom and most got frozen. We ran outside and saved these few red roses. It hasn't snowed since but it was a rude awakening for winter.


You might remember that we posted a picture of our kitty and Savannah when she was much younger - like months younger! Well here is an update. They are still good friends and Kitty is doing pretty good letting Savannah pat her!




Then of course there was Halloween. Lucky for us Todd's brother, Robb, and his wife, Amanda, were nice enough to send Savannah a cute costume to wear. The backup we had was a horse and Todd was not into his little princess being a horse! So we went to our friend's "Trunk or Treat" and took some pics of Savannah.


We then went back to our friend's house and took some more pics. Their little girl was Snow White and their little boy was a puppy. It was perfect as he is crawling like crazy and looked so cute running around!

She is also getting pretty good at clapping. Who knew having a baby could be so fun?!



Savannah also got her first Halloween card from her Grandma Welch. She loved looking at it and eating it!
