Calling all stay at home moms!!!

Well it has happened...my dreams I mean! I am finally a stay at home mom. I don't think it has sunk in yet. It is so wonderful. I am so thankful to my wonderful husband for having the faith to just do it! Now my next question...what do all you stay at home moms do? I feel like I have been cleaning my house everyday for weeks. Is that really what this is all about? (Not that I am complaining) I just would like to know a way to keep my house clean so I can spend quality time with Tyrus...(especially before the baby comes) and not watch movies all day...is that normal? Anyway...if anyone has any suggestions that would be awesome!

Great news!

Well if you haven't heard...the news is out! We are going to have another baby. We are so thrilled! I am miserable, which is good. We are due Aug 25th. I have already had 4 ultra sounds (high risk) and the baby looks great. It has been so fun to see the baby grow. It is amazing how much they grow in 1 weeks time. I really wanted to post pics of our ultra sounds, but of course our scanner isn't working. Hopefully it will be working soon and I will post them.

I know it has been forever since I have posted...between working two jobs, being a mom to a busy boy and being VERY sick, I have not been so good at it. I am hoping to keep up on it better. I know I still need to post Christmas pics, just trying to find the time. It is amazing your new goals when another baby is on the way...organize rooms, catch up on scrapbooking, potty train...all that fun stuff. Anyway, I will hopefully post again soon.

Christmas

I love Christmas! Who doesn't (besides James)? It is the greatest day of the year. And I am not just saying that cause it is my birthday...(ok maybe a little). I just love all the sights and sounds (and smells---thats for you James) of Christmas. I am so excited to see Ty's face when he wakes up Christmas morning...for those of you who have not seen when he gets excited I will for sure video it and put it on my blog after Christmas--it is hilarious. Anyway, I mostly just love being together with the family and giving gifts. It is so fun. So I would just like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas!

p.s. Have a Holli Jolly Christmas!--sorry had to throw that one in

Light Parade 12/06/08

Last Saturday we drove down to the light parade in Helper, Utah. Where is Helper you ask? 6 miles from Price. Where is Price you ask? Well don't cause I don't know what to tell you...middle of the state somewhere. Anyway, every year they have a parade and all the floats are decorated with Christmas lights. It is really cool. It would have been cooler if we would have seen the whole thing...we were late. Anyway, they have fireworks after. It was a blast. My sisters Staci and Becki went with us (with their boyfriends Jesse & Nate).

Putting up the Christmas Tree

We recently put up our Christmas tree. We always have the same ornaments and lights every year, so this year I decided to go to Wal Mart and by some ornaments. I bought some, got home, and did you know they don't come with anything to hang them with? I was so mad, I took them back. Why in the world should you have to buy the hangy things separate?! Anyway, so we have the same old tree again this year (with a few Cars (the movie) ornaments, that I had to buy for Ty--which in reality aren't really ornaments cause they never stay on the tree).

p.s. and for some reason Tyrus likes to go shirtless

Facebook

Well I did it, I finally joined facebook. And to be honest, I like blogging much better...sorry Tab (and anyone else who thinks otherwise). So yes I am on there, but blogging seems so much cleaner. Facebook is super cluttery (which I am not a fan of), but I do like being able to find old friends and see what people are up to. So there is my two cents (if anyone even cares).
