3 Years Old!

Happy Birthday sweet little Lorelai!

3 year stats:

weight: 38 lbs (93%)

height: 38 in. (75 %)

Lorelai LOVES Tinkerbell so of course she wanted a Tinkerbell birthday cake and insisted on wearing her tinkerbell costume when we did cake and presents! Grandpa House was visiting during her birthday so it was fun to have him there and the rest of her grandparents got to be part of the celebration via webcam!

I tried to keep it simple and ended up putting her cake together really quick, so it's nothing crazy but she was happy!

The day after her birthday we went to Chuck E Cheese's and played games for a while, the girl's had a blast, they could not get enough! Then we finished the evening with dinner at Lorelai's favorite place; Red Robin.

She has been talking about going there for her birthday and getting sang to for months!It was so fun to celebrate her birthday this year, she is getting big so fast!

Some of her favorites are Tinkerbell, legos, dress up, playing with her barbies and bossing around all of us!

She loves learning of any kind especially if it's on the computer or in her dry erase learning book.

She wants to help with everything and she loves entertaining Reagan. She always wants to use her pretend stethoscope to check on "mommy's baby"!

This little girl can drive me crazy one minute and be such a sweetheart the next, she is such a blessing in our home! We love you Lorelai, Happy Birthday!

Halloween 2010

Tinkerbell and a cute little butterfly!

...and don't forget Mr. Slice!

The girls' had so much fun dressing up this year, Lorelai could hardly wait to dress up like Tinkerbell! The look on her face when her costume was on and she had "Tinkerbell hair" was absolutely priceless as she looked at herself in the mirror.

And Reagan was beaming all night as well, she quickly caught on to the trick or treating concept and couldn't get enough!

We first went to the mall Saturday afternoon for a Halloween scavenger hunt and then to our ward trunk or treat Saturday night.

One of my favorite moments was when Lorelai heard a girl that worked at Macy's say, "there goes Tinkerbell" and Lorelai's face lit up because she knew the girl thought she was tinkerbell!

Happy Halloween!

It's A...

I know this post is so overdue, but as one might have noticed I have kind of been out the blogging world for a while...so better late than never!

Anyways...We went to the doctor in August while my parents were here and I had an ultrasound that showed us we are having a...

BOY!!!

We are pretty darn excited! I am now about 28 weeks along and in a lot of ways the time has flown by, in others not so much! I am a little nervous because I have no idea what to do with a boy, but we are looking forward to the adventure and the girls can't wait for him to get here!

All in all, I have had a pretty easy pregnancy, it has been my least favorite of the three and I feel like I am so much more uncomfortable already than I was at this point with the girls'. Also I have been getting a lot more braxton hicks this time around, but nothing too terrible!

...We're just hoping Lorelai eventually gives in to the fact that she probably won't win the name battle and decides she's ok with the name we've picked!

I have plenty of posts to catch up on, but have been without my computer. The only time I manage to get on Preston's computer is early in the morning or late at night. So here's hoping I have a computer soon!

It seems like we've had a lot going on lately and not that much all at the same time.
Soon to come:
Baby #3's gender (we find out next week!)
Camping trip pics
Our day at Silverwood
Updates on our sweet girls and perhaps a prego pic (maybe).

One of our latest highlights is that Reagan finally has decided to start walking! She has been able to take a few steps at a time for like a month, but in the last week has become quite the little walker! Now to expand her vocabulary! Although as sassy as her sister is, maybe I shouldn't be in too big of a hurry for her to talk!

In the meantime we're just living life and loving watching our little girls learn new things every single day!

Baby House #3!!!

Baby #3 is expected to be arriving January 27, 2011!!!

We are so excited to add another member to our growing family!

I had this ultrasound yesterday which would put me at about 13.5 weeks.

This is actually my second ultrasound, but I don't have the pictures from the first one.

My next ultrasound will be August 25th when we will find out the gender! So far this pregnancy has been a little different than the first two. I have felt just a little sicker and it has lasted longer. I can't complain too much because I still have never thrown up while pregnant! I have started to feel a lot more normal the last few days though so maybe I'm coming out of it! We are just grateful that the baby looks healthy and is doing well!

Arizona!

The girls and I were able to visit the family in Arizona for 10 days and be there for Tyler's graduation! Preston came for just a few days with us also, it was great to see everyone and we were all sad to say goodbye!

Here's a whole bunch of pictures in no particular order of some of the happenings of our trip!

Reagan turned one on May 23rd and we were able to be in Az for her birthday. It was fun to be able to celebrate with all of our family there!

For some reason I could not get this picture the right direction, but here is the cake!

My mom, Tara and I made her cake, I had so much fun making it with them!

Reagan got lots of cute clothes and a couple toys for her Birthday, but this was definitely her favorite! Grandma and Grandpa Miller got her a baby doll and she just kept hugging and kissing her over and over again!
