Growing Baby!

Pregnant!

Our family is growing! When we told The Sweetness the big news she just clenched her fists together and said, "I can't believe we are going to have a baby" over and over and over again for the next 2 weeks. She is so excited- I think she might be as excited as I am even! The One and all his family are routing for a boy, because if this baby is a girl- that brings the numbers up to 5 girls- 0 boys in the family. The Sweetness is routing for a little sister. And I...i'm just routing for a baby with The One's dimples :)

Here is our silly old time western picture we used to announce the pregnancy. We said, "Our silly family of FOUR". When we got the picture taken the photographer told me I want to suck in my belly!

Moondough...

For Christmas 2 years ago, I got The Sweetness 2 things of Moon dough. It was one of her "Must Have" gifts. After playing with the Barnyard set I was really really REALLY not interested in getting out the Pizza set. I snuck into a closet- out of sight out of mind. A few times a year she would stumble upon it and beg to play with it...Nah, let's play with something else.

Anyways, today I really wanted The Sweetness to sit still while a did a new hairstyle. I told her she could play with the moon dough if she sat nicely while I did it.

 She had a great time! We made tons of little pizza's and had a wonderful "lunch" together. It made a decent mess, but she helped clean.

We packed everything up in a ziploc bag...and I snuck it back into a new hiding spot. Maybe we will get it out in another 2 years.

Tuna and Tomatos

Now...I am a bit picky, but there is one thing that just really grosses me out. TUNA FISH! Yuck yuck yuck! I avoided it my entire life because I just knew what it was going to taste like. Finally about 8 months ago I was just starving at work. They were serving some Tuna Noodle Casserole stuff. My stomach was literally eating itself! Everyone else, including the children, were happily eating it. So...I went for it. IT TASTED EXACTLY LIKE I THOUGHT I WOULD ALL THESE YEARS! Gross...

Anyways, The Sweetness and The One just love that stuff. I am cringing just thinking about it. I won't even let it come in the house! All that tuna breath...uhh. No Thanks.

We all went to Subway a few nights ago and The Sweetness orders a Tuna Sub...with a tomato on it! How in the world is this my child!??!

She then proceeded to chase me down and try to kiss me with her tuna breath...

It all begins...

June 16th, 2012....easily the best, most sweet day of my life. The Sweetness, The One, and I were sealed for Time and All Eternity in the Mesa LDS Temple. I had the strongest feeling that this was the most significant thing I had ever done in my life. It was so simple but so powerful. I get the chills just thinking about it! The Sweetness was so reverent and good during the sealing. I think it all felt familiar to her and that she felt The Spirit. As a gift, we received a beautiful picture of the Temple, It says, "Today is part of eternity" on it. I love to look at it and think of our most special day and remember that RIGHT NOW is eternity. 

(I'm not really that much taller! I was standing on the upward slope of a hill!) 

Although not everyone was able to come into the Temple, they still came to support us! It was so great to have our families there!

 After the Temple we went to Our Uncle's for the reception! He did such an amazing job planning the reception and getting everything ready!

(Dropped BBQ Sauce on my Dress 15 Min into the Reception)

Yep... the best day ever!

1st Grade

The Sweetness started the 1st grade today...sniff sniff. Kindergarten is one thing...but first grade?! Come on! That's just crazy. She is defiantly growing up fast.

Shoveling Poop

A lady that The One works with asked if we could come over and visit with her and the horses...and help clean up all the horse poop! So we strapped on our old shoes and got to work! The Sweetness insisted on helping for a good 15min...which is really good for her! 

We also got to pet and feed the horses. The Sweetness was pretty nervous, but finally worked up the courage to do it. She also enjoyed spending time with the owner and learning tons of new things about horses! Can't wait to help again!!
