Getting closer!

Here I am at a full 30 weeks:


31 weeks:

It's getting close!! If I'm lucky I will go early :) 

One day Zayne came out with his monkey in his shirt saying that he had a baby in his tummy!! Love this little guy :)


We had a structural walk through of our house last Tuesday. We had to wear hard hats and everything! Very fun to see the progress being made :)



So the updated schedule is final walk through June 15, and a closing date of June 22. My official due date is June 30. I was 10 days early with Evie and 15 days early with Zayne. My doctor predicts that I will go early with this little guy. Nothing like major life events happening all at once!!


We went to Rexburg this last weekend because Owen's sister blessed her baby and his other sister's son was ordained for his upcoming mission to Germany. We hadn't been back in probably 5 years. We toured the BYU-I campus and couldn't believe how much it had changed and grown! It was very neat to see the growth :) we had a nice time with his family! 

Owen's brother is a paramedic and firefighter over there. He gave us a tour of one of the fire stations. It was really cool! Evie told me after we got home that it was her favorite part of the trip!!




Evie and all of her cousins her age on Owen's side :) she is definitely the tallest! She had fun playing - we really don't see them that often, but they got along great!

Zayne spotted this hulk mask the other day at shopko! He lives Hulk Smash! I for see a birthday present in the near future ;)


Last night Evie lost her very first tooth!! She was excited beyond belief!!


 Let the cute, awkward teeth begin!!!

Pregnancy and house updates!

Here I am at 27 weeks:


Here I am at 28 weeks:
I look huge compared to the previous week!! I guess my belly finally "popped out!"

And here I am at 29 weeks: my favorite part of this pictures is Evie putting on her lipgloss ;)

At my 28 week appointment I had my glucose test- that drink is so gross. Haven't heard back about the results, so I assume all is well! I gained another 7 lbs :( yikes!! I have gained 27lbs total now.  I also had another ultrasound to make sure the placenta had moved up and away from my cervix - good news; it did!! I also got some cute pics of him: ok. The first pic of his face is actually kind of creepy!! But I think he has the same face shape as Evie did in her ultrasound!



Here is the progress of our house! Owen is able to stop by on his way home from work a couple of days a week. This is what it looked like a couple of weeks ago....



The next Monday this was the picture Owen sent me!!! Woo!!


We went out there this last Sunday on our way to Owens parents curch.....







It's really coming along!! This is such an exciting journey for us! We have been through so much and we can't wait to be able to have our own home again in the near future!

Last few weeks :)

I haven't had my pictures put on backwards for a long time. These are in backward order!

First off - this little guy will be 3 in a few weeks!! 3?!! I can't believe it - where has the time gone? 


He's such a little fireball!! He has come such a long way with his speech. We are very excited for the progress he has made. He is starting to say sentences, and although we can't always understand the words clearly, he is really coming along! Still working on potty training. I'm not pushing it. He's about 50/50......some days he does really well telling me he has to go potty, and then the next day it's not even worth it it feels like!

We had a nice Easter. We watched/ listened to general conference on Sunday and then had family over for dinner and an Easter egg hunt. We missed my sister and her family while they are still in Alaska.




Easter morning the kids found their Easter baskets!! The Easter bunny was good to them this year :)






The Saturday before Easter we went to my moms neighborhood Easter egg hunt. Evie was the only one brave enough to get her picture taken with the Easter bunny - Zayne didn't want anything to do with it!!









A couple of Sunday's ago Evie was the spotlight in Primary. One of my favorite things about being the primary chorister is being able to watch Evie blossom in primary!! She got to take a treasure box home and then bring back a couple of items that she wanted to share with the primary. She chose to bring her baby blankie, her build a bear monkey she got for her birthday, and a picture of her and her girl cousins that are her best friends!! She was in heaven :)

My mom and dad gave Evie a build a bear gift certificate for her birthday so we went over spring break. 


We took advantage of the beautiful weather over spring break and took a trip to the zoo!! The kids loved it :)








I love the lions - such beautiful animals!



A couple of weeks ago we went and visited my grandparents - my sister took her sweet little guy, Issac down so they could meet their newest great grand child!! I captured some really cute pictures!
