Emma's Christmas

Emma had a fun Christmas and got some fun presents. She got clothes, two new webkinz and some clothes for her webkinz, some new boots, a diary, a Barbie Christmas Carol DVD, and a pink Nintendo DS with a Littlest Pet Shop Game and a carrying case. She didn't want to write anything on the blog, but she has a pretty cute/funny video where she talks about her presents.

Matthew's Christmas

I got transformers, a radio controlled car, a webkinz bat, zelda video game, k'nex/legos, kung fu panda DVD, and a clone wars DVD. ghbnjhghjbkjjuyughkj;;dffffghgvgfghcfdfgrftftrtjygfdgdehuikopdgfgfvvv fcbfgtdf gfbytyybtvvrhr fgbygfnf hg r

Matthew typed everything above himself (with some help in the spelling), and then he said he wanted to go crazy so I thought that would probably be okay. He went through opening his presents just like he went through discussing them on the video, very quickly. He has had fun and we've managed to get the driveway cleared off enough for him to drive his car around outside which he really likes doing.

Julia's Christmas

On Christmas I got some really cool toys. I got a Nintendo DS, Lego Star Wars game, some brown boots, a game called Pictureka, some webkinz clothes, a webkinz bottle nose dolphin, a pretty bag, a watch, Prince Caspian DVD (which is not included in the picture), and a pretty necklace. When I went to bed on Christmas Eve, I slept in a sleeping bag in Emma's room. I tried to sleep but I couldn't I was in there for a while finally I told my mom and dad and they helped me take my stuff to my room, once I was in bed I fell asleep quickly. I had a very fun Christmas and can't believe the year is almost over.

Ballet Recital

Last Saturday Emma and I had a ballet recital. It was at the North Davis junior high. We did it with our friends Jordan and Mckenna and some other girls. We danced to the music box. I think our costumes were really cute. It was cool because once we were talking about costumes Mckenna and Emma wanted a pink costume, Jordan and I wanted purple and we got both. I had lots of fun performing and can't wait until we do our spring recital. The video of our performance is below.

Enough for a Basketball Team

Yes, we are expecting our fifth child. Josh says we are hoping for our center.....for the basketball team, get it? I'm about 11 weeks along and am due in the middle of June. Of course we are hoping for a boy but we'll be okay with another girl, even Matthew agrees with that. Once I'm not feeling so sick I'm sure I'll be more excited about this but right now part of me is wondering why we made this decision, especially since this means we will most likely miss John's wedding.
We do get to go shopping to buy a new crib and other baby things. We'll keep you posted!

2 Princesses, a Queen, a Senator, and a Super-Hero

This was the trick-or-treating party we had for this Halloween. They were all very happy and excited to be getting candy. Katie lasted for about a half dozen houses, with Dad carrying her part of the time. Matthew lasted for about another dozen houses but then he was ready to go home too. The three older girls lasted a little longer, until we got a few rain drops then they were ready to go home and check out their haul. Everybody had fun, and surprisingly the candy is almost all gone already.
