Who knew it would all be new?

Since last time I blogged, we have a new baby and a new house and a new phase of terrible twos and a new habit of not blogging (the last two are a bummer.) Life is great.






We have a new paint job in the girls room. (Thanks Nana). Bring on the PINK!

Here are a few pictures of our two daughters over the last few months.

The baby is bound to be a fisherman, we asked her to tell how big the fish was and everytime she said it got bigger and bigger.

Here is strawberry short cake and a strawberry for halloween.



Our little girl has become a bit chubby. Someone said she looks like the gerber baby. She also has quite a personality and can follow simple directions "stick out your tongue... smile... show us your triple chin!" She is such a good girl.




We love to read around our house and are proud to say we start early. I found the girls reading before bedtime the older girl insisted that the little one asked for this bedtime story.



I'm happy that I got both girls smiling at the same time.

Ready to move out of SLC

We haven't been very diligent post-ers for awhile, but we are still out here. So we are in the process of buying a house. We should close any day and are looking forward to not living out of boxes.

Julz is a singer lately and gets words and tunes down and is constantly surprising us with the things she remembers. She is growing up alot too. She definitely loves baby dolls and plays with lots of them at a time and all of them everyday.

So those of you wondering the results of our ultra sound.... everything looks great and the baby is still due in the beginning of Oct. that means 2 more months and then our family is bigger and wigglier, (this baby is constantly moving, and I have a feeling it is an indication of an adventurous personality). We closed our eyes for part of the ultrasound and thus don't know if it is a boy or girl. Lots of guesses have been made, but we don't know for certain.

So that is our current update. No pictures today. We will post again after we are settled in our new place!

2 months all at once

So 2 months
have past.
We've been
busy and are doing well we hope all of you are also.
Here are some
updates (chronologically presented newest at the top) (If you make it to the end you are definately should be put in the danndyday fanclub, I almost didn't survive posting it with the wiggly girl on my lap saying "no nap, happy" and "waaaaa" most of the time. I hope it reads better than it got on here!):


Julz is now sporting her new favorite past time. She is a pro chef. Well at least with fruit pizza she succeeds! She did well with the butter knife and did even better eating this treat!



















Here is Julz back in Utah with one of her cousins. They are driving of all things.




Unfortunately good times like this had to come to a close. We said goodbye and survived the long drive. Mama is very glad we don't have to drive that far very often, but it is worth it occasionally.







We had a great visit with some of Daddy's cousins. What fun that was. It's unfortunate that everyone lives so far away from each other though.

















Julz has made a bosom friend for life. An important goal of the trip was to introduce these two girls. The girls got along immediately and enjoyed each other tremendously.



Here they are posing together on a tree limb, moments before they toppled over. Luckily they got caught before landing on the ground!











A very surprising and adventurous trip to Ca. Loads of friends and good times. Thanks for making the trip great everyone.









Of course there is never enough time to spend with everyone. But it was great to try.







We enjoyed the Dublin St. Patricks Day parade. I don't think the girls knew what to think of the whole thing.



So this is as good as any a place to announce... We are going to have another baby, due in October.


This picture is when the sun is teasing us, Sunny for a few hours and then of course more storms hit. Julz and her good friend are sporting their favorite ladybug dresses. They are so cute together.









There is a very big elephant behind us, Julz is fascinated with how they can use their "noses" like fingers.








The zoo is a very dangerous place, one minute you become a cowgirl on an alligator and the next you may get caught in a tangled web, only to find the spider is friendly and you can ride it too! Even the striped caterpillars are friends.




























Here she is with her aunt and she shows a little attitude and a big smile.














This is when Julz was caught blue handed, actually she played with a balloon that we had colored on, and dressed herself up in all the extras and came in to surprise us.












We went to the zoo a few times. With daddy and with cousins,
