Here is the scoop.

Hello! Long time no post! :) Well, since the last time I posted a lot has been going on! I will just highlight a few more for my sake so feel free to skim. :)

~My little brother went on his mission for the LDS church to Winnipeg Canada so we drove to Idaho for a quick trip to see him speak in church. He is awesome (don't ever tell him I said that) he really has been an inspiration for me for a long time now and I am really proud of him. Unfortunately I didn't take ANY pictures! WHAT! I know I don't know what I was thinking, obviously I wasn't.

~Easter was great, Morgan and Whit loved looking for eggs. We had a great dinner at our friends house..mmm

~May started off with Jeff being gone for two weeks to Washington to open a new office up there. That was fun...not really. It was long. BUT, one of my best friends came to visit for a few days which was a BLAST! Lawanda you are great and I miss your face. Again, I forgot to take any pictures! I am pretty sure I am losing it this pregnancy! My girls LOVE LOVE LOVE her, so we played and ate and talked and shopped. It was pretty great!

~When Jeff got home he was here for four days then we ALL took off to Washington for about six weeks. The first week and a half we were there we stayed with my cute sister in law at her house. Bless her heart, she was already housing her brother in law and then we show up PLUS her family AND she is staging her house to get it sold! She is a saint. After that time we went to my grandparents home on Whidby Island. Their house isn't to far from Shelly's but you have to cross part of the Puget Sound to get there on the ferry which the girls loved, but it takes about 45 minutes to an hour extra to get there. SO Jeff stayed at his sisters house during the week and came over on the weekends (from his office it is about two hours). SO when he was there we had a great time! Farmers markets, touring the island, eating good food. But when he wasn't there it was a little lonely. Then the last week we headed back to my SIL's house (my grandparents rent their home out and it happened to be rented that week) and after that I decided to drive to Idaho to spend some time with my parents.

This is a picture I remember from when I was little, I THINK my grandma put it all together it is sea shells and things from the beach. It was the only thing left at my grandparents house of theirs.

The view when you first walk in the house

The girls taking a bath, beautiful view but a little awkward because their were no blinds. :)

Every Friday all the cruise ships would pass by the house, it was fun watching all the ships go by

While I was there I was going a little stir crazy so I got some fabric and made a blessing dress. It turned out ok, I don't think I am in love, but at this point I am to busy to fix it so it will have to work.

I also made a baby blanket (thanks Shelly for letting me use your sewing machine!)

There were deer in the yard all the time, we also saw a raccoon, hummingbirds, chipmunks, quails (and baby quails, so cute!) and bunnies.

~We drove from Seattle to Rexburg (14 hours) and the girls were great. We celebrated the 4th with my parents and my brother and his wife and their kids. We went to the Rexburg parade and had a BBQ with lots of friends and family. It was great, but I was pooped! SO Sunday morning we headed off to Denver...(12 hours) and Morgan was great...Whitney, not so much. It was a long drive and I wanted to cry when I got home! :)

The girls were so done, this is us at the picnic on the 4th. Pretty much sums up how we were all feeling at that point! :)

Grandma was so nice to help Morgan go get candy during the parade while I held onry Whitney :)

~NOW, we are officially moving to Washington for who knows how long! :) It could be anywhere from 4 months to a year, who knows! So for the last two weeks I have been packing, blah. All I have to say is I have amazing friends and family who keep calling asking what they can do...everyday, I am not kidding. They (you) are GREAT!!! I want to cry every time someone calls (I am pregnant and super hormonal :) ) We are VERY VERY VERY sad to leave but excited for the new adventure at the same time!

~OH! We are still pregnant :) I am 33 weeks and we are having a GIRL!!! Surprise! :) Ok, I wasn't to surprised. We actually went to our ultrasound and they were not able to tell. The tech said if she HAD to say one or the other she was say MAYBE 60% a girl. I was a little disappointed that they weren't able to say for sure, and JEFF was so funny, he was just pacing the floor the whole time. He finally after a few weeks got me to go to a fetal photo type place and find out for sure. SO, it IS a girl. I am really excited but really nervous at the same time. Three girls! DRAMA! haha I don't know how I will handle it! My pregnancy has gone great (beside the first 23 weeks of throwing up and nausea!) I really am grateful, but I am STRESSED with everything going on, I am excited to get settled and really get ready for this baby girl!

~One more shout out to my husband who is still in Washington poor guys has only been home for four days since May! :( He is doing so well up there AND because of all of this craziness he was not able to walk for his Masters degree. I think (ok I know) I was more upset about this than he was. He worked so hard and then didn't get to get the pictures and the memories of walking. :( I may rent him an outfit just so I can take pictures! Or maybe I will convince him to get his doctorates! haha I think he will have to convince me before I convince him. BUT again, good work hun I am so proud!

These are just some random pictures:

Whit was so tired one day she just crashed on the couch like this.

Morgan just sharing the whippers with Whitney...mmm

Morgan was in the bathtub with her swim suit on and it started raining really hard so I got her out and got her umbrella and rain boots and she was LOVING playing in the rain.

Sporting her new headband that I made from a tie.

Diddo

I LOVE these shoes!

Morgan was jumping on the couch and fell and knocked a tooth loose. SO she had her first trip to the dentist, everything was just fine and Morgan did great.

Morgan got this set of beads and hair things which she loved playing with...

Until she thought the hair clips should be earrings! :)

Morgan flying her first kite in Washington at the beach.

This is Whitney actually flying the kite. This is the best picture I could get of her since I was holding her, but she LOVED it.

Sorry for any misprints, it is late and I am tired. It has been a little crazy the last few months, but fun times. Hopefully I keep up a little better from here on out...we will see. :)
