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 Turns One!

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's own special cake!

Reagan loved eating her cake!

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!

All the kids decorating their candy bags!

Reagan hitting her pinata!

Grandpa House also had a little celebration for Reagan at his house

Reagan was definitely spoiled for her birthday and Lorelai has been planning her birthday party ever since then!

2 1/2!

I don't even know where to start! Lorelai is growing too quick for her own good :) Everyday she learns something new and is constantly making us laugh. She is shy around other people but never stops talking at home!

She has done so well with all the changes and excitement over the last few months. Through the move and staying at Kent and Ann's before we found a house, then moving into a new house and being around new people in nursery and not being able to play with all her friends in Boise, she has still just gone with the flow of it all! Though she still regulary mentions her little Boise friends!

She loves to ride her bike and go for walks by the river!

She could play with bubbles and play doh all day long!

She is an excellent mommy to her 3 babydolls.

She is sweet most of the time but definitely has some sas!

One of our favorite parts of the day is after her nap when she gets her backpack and her lunchbox and we pretend to ride the bus to "school" (the kitchen table). She loves to learn and really loves that there's always a snack waiting in her lunch box when we're all done!

She loves the park and helping her little sister!

She is VERY independent which I love and hate!

She insists on doing almost everything by herself!

Some of her favorites:

Color: Pink and yellow

Movies: Cars, Kung Fu Panda, Nemo,

Tv Show: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse

Place: the balloon place (Red Robin)

Toy: Probably her babies!

Food: Mac and Cheese

Song: Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam and Popcorn Popping

She loves nursery! Going places with daddy when mommy and Reagan have to stay home! Singing, dancing, getting her nails painted! She is definitely a girl!

We are so grateful for such a sweet little girl!

Our Geese Friends!

Right now we are living in a condo and right behind the row of condos in front of us is the Columbia river. There is a great bike path along the river that we like to go for walks on and that is where our geese friends live!

These 3 geese are always around, sometimes there are others too, but we can usually count on seeing them, so we bought some food and like to go feed them. They got used to this really quick and now recognize us. Well, one Saturday they were surrunded by a few ducks and geese and one of them came at us with his quivering beak in the air, being the over protective mom, I headed in the opposite direction. Lorelai however thought this was great and continued to throw food out at them. So, picture me practically running pulling the wagon and 1o birds following right behind us squawking at us while a few drunk people on their yacht had a good laugh! If only there were pictures.

These videos are not quite that funny but they do show the geese following us after we finished feeding them another day and Lorelai's fearlessness as she heads straight for them on her bike and the camera shifting as I'm freaking out while Preston just laughs!

Still following us!

Most of the time they are pretty friendly and the girls just love to go visit them!
