Kalli's 2nd Birthday!

My little girl is growing up so fast! Today is her 2nd birthday. We threw Kalli a Mickey Mouse party. Her friends and family came over for pizza, cake and ice cream. We had so much fun. I just can't believe how fast those two years went. She has accomplished so much these past two years. She is starting to talk, learning to count, her ABC's, helps mom and dad around the house (sort of) and so much more. We love you soooo much Kalli! Happy birthday!

4-D ultrasound pics!

Here are some pictures from my 4-D ultrasound. He's 25 weeks in these pictures and weighs 1 lb and 13 oz. He has "chubby cheeks" and kissable lips. He's my cute little boy and I can't wait to meet him!

Earthquake Shakes!

Yesterday I was at work on the 5th floor of the hospital when it started to shake. The nurses desk started shaking and the blinds on the windows started swaying back-and-forth. At first I thought I was just imagining things, but when it didn't stop I soon realized it was an earthquake. I couldn't believe this was really happening. It didn't last very long, but long enough to give us a little scare. The nurses and I had a good laugh about it afterwards. I guess what we were feeling were aftershocks from an earthquake in Wells, Nevada. They said the aftershocks were felt throughout the Wasatch Front.

Winter Wedding......Mike & Rachel

Mike (my brother) and Rachel Kite were married Thursday in the SLC temple. The reception was held at the Ivy Lane Reception Center in Ogden. It was such a beautiful wedding. We feel so lucky to have Rachel as part of our family! Kalli looked so cute in her dress. She was my little princess for the day.

Snow Day.......Snow much fun!!

Bailey and Kalli being pulled on the tube.

Blake and Kalli getting ready to go down the hill.

Beautiful Wheeler Canyon!

Crystal holding a crying Kalli! Blake took Kalli down the hill and she had fun at first, until they went off a jump and Kalli got a face full of snow. After that, she was to scared to go back down the hill and just wanted to be held.

Blake tubing down the hill-spread eagle style! Haha!

Isaac getting ready to go down the tubing hill.

Bailey and Kalli on the tube.

Carson, Bailey and Isaac. What a cute family. Annalisa stayed home, she hasn't been feeling well (she is also 9 months pregnant). So Carson took the kids sledding for the day. They loved it!

It's a boy!

About a month ago, I had one of the doctors I work with do an ultrasound to see if he could determine the sex of the baby. He thought it was a girl, but was only 60% sure. I guess I had my mind set on a girl after that. I had a name picked out, bedding (I didn't buy it yet), and was getting use to the idea that I was going to have two little girls instead of one. So imagine our surprise when I had my MD appointment today and found out IT'S A BOY! I was shocked, I looked over at Blake who had a HUGE grin on his face. I just started laughing-I'm really having a boy! So now I'm trying to get use to the idea that I'm having a boy and not a girl. Blake and I are both so excited and can't wait to meet this little bundle-of-joy! Only 20 weeks left and counting!

Sunny St. George

Kevin on "Living on the Edge"

These bottom two are of me on "Living on the Edge" 1st pitch, it was a 5.10a on the first pitch and then a 5.10c on the second pitch, we didn't have the time or daylight for pitch 2, but if I know Kevin, we will be back.

We went down to St. George Late Friday night after the Utah gymnastics meet, in which #3 Utah took down #1 Georgia, it was pretty fun and Crystal and Kalli really enjoyed it. It is a pretty neat atmosphere to go to. It is cool that their gymanstics team constantly fills the arena, but the mens basketball team has trouble filling the bottom half.

We climbed all day Saturday and then that night hooked up with Kurt and Chantel and got some dinner at the Panama Grill (which was surprisingly good) and then went and played some Laser Tag. We are all pretty into the laser tag thing, it is a good workout and loads of fun for pretty cheap. We headed home Sunday and it was a pretty short trip. Crystal was a trooper putting up with Kalli while Kevin and I played in the day, (thanks honey) she is so good to me. Well, that is it, Kevin has more shots from his camera that are pretty EPIC, so if you want some more of this mtn. call or email him. We will have to do it again soon.

Oh, thanks mom and dad for letting us use the condo, it is always nice to have a warm place to stay for a good price. ha ha. Thanks again.

Happy Birthday Blake!

Blake turned the BIG 28 (on Friday). We had so much fun. We went to the Outback Steakhouse for dinner with Kent, Cyndy, Carson and Anna. We then went to our house for cake, ice cream and opening presents. My family was out-of-town, so we're going to celebrate his birthday with them on Thursday in Salt Lake. Blake is such a great husband and father and we just adore him! Happy birthday honey-we love you!
