Boating and our new vehicle

Well we decided to get a new vehicle to hold our growing family. We got an Acura MDX. So far I have really liked it. We got it for a really great deal. It has a third row seat for two and so it holds 7 people. Logan and Sienna really like being back there.

We went boating for the first time this year. It was really fun until we ran out of gas in the middle of the lake. My dad thought he filled it up at the end of the season last year but apparently he didn't. We got some help from another boat and they towed us in. I am a little bummed because this year I won't be doing any wakeboarding.
Our back yard is coming along good. It is starting to look better and better as time goes by. Jeff has done a lot of work on it. We hope it will be really nice by next spring. Sorry all of the pictures are out of order from the descriptions, I don't want to try and fix it right now.

And the baby is....

A GIRL! We went in today and the Doctor said that we are going to have a girl. We are really excited and can't wait to meet our new baby girl in November.
Logan was kind of sad at the Dr. office when he heard the news. He said something like "oh man". I got a few pictues from the ulrasound but I can't post them because I don't have a scanner. We are still undecided on the name for her but we will agree on one one of these days, hopefully before she is born.

Air show and kids

Sienna loves to lick rocks and eat dirt.

Sienna riding her trike in her diaper. This is what happens when I am at work.

We went to the air show on Saturday. This is inside a huge plane.

Baby Millie Green is here!

Millie was born about 2 weeks ago but I am finally getting around to posting a picture. This is the only one I have of her so far but I will have more later. She is such a cute baby girl! My kids are obsessed with her, especailly Sienna. They can't wait for our little baby to be born. A few days ago I got to go to a Dr. appointment and she checked to see if we could find out the sex. Well the baby wouldn't open her legs but the Dr. thinks she might be a girl. I get to go back in 2 weeks and check again.

Pregnancy, Potty, Bikes, and Church

I am 14 weeks the end of this week which makes me 3 months and in my second trimester. I am finally starting to feel better, although I am not completely back to normal. June 1st is my next appointment and we get to find out what we are having. I am starting to poke out a little, I really just kind of look really full or fat (I hate this stage) When we get the camera's fixed I might post some belly pics.
Sienna recently decided she wanted to go pee in the potty now so that has been going really good. We ran out of diapers one day so Jeff put some panties on her and she has been doing great. Now #2 in another story.
Logan has also learned something new, he can now ride his bike without the training wheels! He was riding his bike one day and Jeff said "let me try something to make it a little easier for you" and he turned one of the wheels straight up. Logan started riding and Jeff told him he was doing it without the training wheels and that was that. We took them off and he has been riding around like crazy. Before when we tried to take them off he was scared and wouldn't try. So I guess since he didn't know he wasn't scared and was able to do it.
And in other news I was recently called into the Young Women's Presidency as the second councilor. So now I have to speak in sacrament again on Sunday with the rest of the presidency. I also got to go to a Combined activity with the YM/YW we played human Foosball, it was so fun!!
Jeff finally got a change in his work scheduled and he gets to work longer hours but gets more days off which means more family time!!

My Logan Boy!

Today I registered Logan for Kindergarten! Wow my baby boy is going to school. It is so weird how fast they grow up especially because I am staying the same age ha ha! He is so excited and ready for school. He gets really bored at home with no other kids to play with. He said he saw three kids that he knows from church so maybe he can start playing with them once I find out where they live and who they are.

Hey batter batter batter....

Logan has started T-ball and is loving it! He has only had two games so far. They don't keep score and they don't have any outs. It is so fun to watch the 5 year old boys play! This is how the game goes. All the kids practice throwing the ball to each other before the game starts, I have seen maybe one kid actually catch the ball. They start out and they are in out field. The other team hits the ball and about 5 out of the 10 kids go for the ball (one of them usually is Logan). One of them gets it and then the parents and the coach yell "throw it to first" about 10 times and then he realizes we want him to throw it to first. Logan will sometimes cry if he dosen't get the ball (he thinks that who ever gets it wins I guess and he has tackled a boy a time or two to get it. He even stepped on someones head trying to get the ball) So then they are up for bat and each kid gets a turn which lasts a while because the coach has to tell them how to hold the bat, where to stand and then they swing a few times, usually hitting the T. So they hit the ball and run to first, some kids like to keep running to second and some just stand there with the bat and watch everyone scramble for the ball. Logan likes to run past first. One kid actually ran to first and then ran over to the ball and tried to pick it up, it was so funny! That same kid started running behind first to never never land trying to find second base i guess. But anyway that is how it usually goes. They all have fun and Logan's favorite part is when they all do a cheer at the end.

Dumb Camera

Well things have been going on but I don't have the pictures to show it because our camera broke while we were camping. But anyway I guess I can just tell you what happened even though it is not as cool without pics. On Thursday we got to go to my first Dr.'s appointment! My Doctors name is Karen Boheen and she is great, she delivered Logan. I got to have an ultrasound and that was cool to see the blob and see the heartbeat. The baby looked like a hampster says Jeff and Logan. My Dr. said at my next appointment we can see if the baby is a boy or a girl, I am way excited about that!
Well last night we had some fun at the Supercross! My Dad got us all tickets and we went in the rain and cold and watched them race around the dirt track. I am going to try and get pictures from my siblings and post them but we will see if that happens. We had fun though and Logan had a blast. He said it was one of the best days of his life, ha ha. I guess when you are that young you can say that will any really cool things that happens to you.

Camping in St. George

Last weekend we went camping near St. George with some of our friends. We had lots of fun. We went to a place called Quail Creek. Asillin, Casey, their son Morgan, Landon and Kim went with us. Sienna and Logan had so much fun playing with Morgan and all of his toys. Sienna keeps telling everyone she played with Morgan and went swimming. I think that was their favorite parts, Morgan and playing in the lake. For the first day we stayed around camp and explored the surrounding area. Jeff found a jeep trail up the mountain to a large cement arrow that points to a nearby airport that was used by planes in the 60's. So we went up that and got to see the arrow and the great view of the lake and our campsite. Logan and the guys went fishing that night and Logan caught the only fish of the trip! It was a big wild trout. The next day Asillin, me and the kids went to St. George and did a little shopping at the outlet store. I got the kids some clothes and a few things for myself. Jeff went motorcycle riding by himself around somewhere, I am just glad he didn't come back with something broken. On the last day we went to Sandhollow where we went swimming in the lake. It was the hottest day and the funnest I thought. of coarse I was sick most of the nights and had to go to bed early it wasn't too bad (good thing for my meds!)

Not so fun being sick!

Well being pregnant has it's ups and downs. Right now it is hard to think of any of the good things when I am feeling so sick! I don't know how we girls do it, being nauseous is the worst feeling ever! I have tried everything and I swear nothing works. This morning there was one moment that I didn't feel sick but it only lasted about 2 minutes.
So my feeling are this: I am either having a girl, because I wasn't sick with Logan but I was with Sienna OR I just get sicker and sicker with every pregnancy. According to a few things I have read when you are sick you are more likely to have a girl. So I guess we will see. I think having a girl would be great but a boy would be good too. So I guess I don't really care either way.
So if anyone has any miracle tricks for morning(all day) sickness, that I haven't tried let me know! (I have medicine from the doctor, I tried the b6, sucking on candy/Popsicles, I have tried sipping on Sprint, and I have yet to try the ginger but I am not very hopeful) All of that seams to help a little but I just want some good relief so I can get some stuff done. Anyway thanks for listening to all my complaining. And I will keep you updated on my pregnancy!

You guessed it!

Well we have been really busy lately. Jeff has torn apart the downstairs bathroom and is making us one that we can actually use. He just decided one day that he wanted to redo it so later we can work on the upstairs bathroom shower. Both bathrooms are probably the worst part of the house right now. We also have been working on the yard and found out that we don't need to put in sprinklers like we thought so that is good. But that project has been put on hold because of the snow. I just signed Logan up for T-ball and that starts in May, he is really excited for that. And I guess I have been pretty busy developing a baby inside my body! Yes I am pregnant. I am only about 6 weeks along but I am feeling pretty tired and sick. We are all very excited about having a new baby. Logan and Sienna are very excited!

Jeff's work is firing a total of about 30 people, luckily Jeff is not one of them but he is ending up with a bad schedule, swings 2:00-10:00 with Sunday, Monday off. We were hoping he would get to work morinings but I guess at least he still gets to keep his job.

Another injury for Jeff

I guess Jeff really is accident prone. Today he was breaking up cement with a hammer and a piece of it flew up and hit him the the head. It bled like crazy but I don't think he will need stitches. It is kind of hard to see though because it is up in his hair. We decided Jeff needs to wear his motorcycle helmet next time he works out in the yard.

Baby Daxton, Bowling fun and Backyard work

Yesterday we went and saw Corey and Becky's new baby Daxton! He is so cute, and a good little baby! Daxton was breech and so Becky had to have a scheduled c-section. They all seam to be doing ok, they are in the hospital until Monday Corey said.

We also went bowling that night with our kids because Logan has been wanting to for a while. We all had lots of fun! Logan was actually winning the whole time until the end when I pulled ahead of him and Jeff for first place. The scores ended up being 123 Jeff, 1o2 Logan, 132 me! That was the first time I have won Jeff in bowling.

We have been working in our backyard lately trying to get it ready for grass. Jeff has been pulling up roots from the ground and I have been trying to clean up the leaves and sticks. So far it has been a lot of work and if you look at the yard it doesn't even look like we did hardly anything. But Jeff took a huge load of stuff to the dumb and that makes us feel like we did do a lot.

Jeff's Ouchy Ear

Jeff is so ACCIDENT PRONE! He was pulling out a tree root using a high lift jack. Well I guess it was stuck so he put his head down closer to take a look at it pulled up and hit his ear. Well it took a good smack and cut right through it. It is all swollen and bloody and gross but here are the pictures.
