{OH BABY!.......}


Look who gets his turn to be a BIG BROTHER!
THAT'S RIGHT!.....BABY #4 is in the making :)
We are currently 14 weeks along and so excited!!
October 19th we are scheduled for an ultrasound to find out
if this baby will be a brother or a sister :)
Our due date is on or before March 20th... 2 days before Kaydree's 7th Birthday :)

We finally told the kids on Monday night and asked Kaydree and Brayden to read what Jaxton's shirt said...We asked them if they understood what that meant for Jaxton to be a big brother and Brayden replied. "Well, he is a BIG 2 year old"! hahaha...it was pretty funny. They are super excited though and announced it to all of their friends at school.
 
I have been super tired and way nauseous this time around but no throwing up.....and this week I seem to be feeling so much better :) We are so excited for this new addition to our family :)

{End of Summer!!!~ August}


AUGUST was about a whole lot of fun before fall and the school year.....and well...I think we pretty much COVERED that!!! :)
 
On August 4th, Austin and I, his parents, 2 sisters, and brother in law all hiked up Palisades lakes...there were so many spectacular views. We ended up hiking a total of 11 miles!! 

 
 On the 11th, Austin's cousin Emily took Kaydree and I on our 1st ever float trip!!!
I have been dying to go for the past 8 years! We floated along the dry bed (our back yard) for a few miles....it was a ton of fun!
 
August 16th the kids and I drove up to Island Park for the day to visit Daddy at work building a cabin and to take a swim in the lake :) 
 
 
 
On August 20th we took a family trip down to Lagoon!!!
The kids had a blast and are getting tall enough that they are able to ride on a lot of rides!!
 
 
 
Brayden started playing NFL flag football and loves it!! He is on the Minnesota Vikings!!
 
 
Jaxton and our dog Marley have become quite good friends....
he walks around saying "come here boy" :)
 
On August 27th, my twin sister Traci went into have a double masectomy to get rid of the stage 3 breast cancer she learned she had......it was a bittersweet day. We are glad she is doing much better now :)
 
 Kaydree and her best friend Kiah......We spent at least one day a week for the whole summer with her and her mom and little sister. They have become such good friends of ours :)
