It's a GIRL!!!

I just wanted to show you all how we would have told you what we are having if you lived here if we lived there (instead of the lame over the phone technique that I had to do)! The camp site we were at was Awesome!! It was right next to this massive waterfall and was GORGEOUS. We just decorated the table with all pink stuff and got some pink balloons. It was so pretty to see all those colors up in the canyon. We miss you all so much and can't wait to see you all! Enjoy these picture of your new Niece/Granddaughter. We have a video that we are to upload of the ultrasound so stay tuned for that. Love you all!

not so crazy kids

Shane escaped while Ryan was trying to change his diaper. Ryan Made me post this picture sorry Rita!
Dog pile on Mom!!

Shane got a new bath tub. He loves it!

crazy kids

Forget the toys, Shane just likes socks. He puts one in each hand and one in his mouth. He plays fetch like a dog with himself. He throws one and chases after it laughing. He is so normal!


Megan Had a little show at her school called "Spring Sing" She sings so loud and out of tune. I love it!
Megan also pulled out her 7th tooth! The most in the whole Kindergarten grade!
Megan tries to read to shane and he just wants to slap and eat the book Good times!

So, try to read from the bottom up. I think i posted these a bit backwards....

                                               THE PEAK! 10,834 FEET!

This is a Stone Hut at around 10,800 feet or so built

in 1933. It was crazy cool!

This was our campsite the second night! It was great except for

the wind which wasn't too bad. I had to get up at 2:00 am and tighten

down the rain fly.

As you can see, there were parts where we were trudging through mountains

of deep, freshly falled powder that almost got up to the top of the soles of

Melissa's new shoes... YIKES!

That is Mt San Jacinto in the background!

We went from Sunny to Snowy... Melissa, a happy camper she was not...
This was our first camp site! It was GREAT! Right next to a small stream, beautiful location. The only real problem was that the temperature got down to 2o degrees that night.... we both didn't sleep too well...

It snowed..... and it was COLD.. Just ax Melissa!

So we started our Camping Trip on Saturday, May 24th. This is at the bottom of the Tram in Palm Springs. We knew not what awaited us at the top...

What?!

The kids were being funny with chocolate pudding...this one is for Grandma Jo....what??

Happy Mothers Day!

We had a great mothers day today! super busy but still fun. It started out with Brandon getting me some awesome flowers and a maternity massage!! (I am so excited for this!) Then we went up to moms house and went to church with her. She had to teach relief society today. She gave a great lesson and made most of the women cry. Then we went back to her house and had a BBQ. (yummy chicken kabobs.)Mom also spoiled me with some gift cards to Jamba Juice!! Thanks Mom!!! Before we left we planted some flowers and then we were on our way to go listen to/watch the Jazz game. WHAT A GREAT GAME!! We won in overtime then it was off to dinner with Brandon's family. We went to Carvers Steak house with his family and his grandparents. Brandon's mom is awesome! She got me a cute card and a cute little onesie. She also got me some sweet stretch mark cream that I am very excited to use! I definitely need it because I swear my belly gets bigger everyday. I got way too spoiled today and don't feel worthy because I havn't had to go through all the struggles of a real mom yet. This goes out to all the moms for being so great but especially to my mom for being such an amazing influence and a great example in my life! I hope I can be half the mom that you are. Love you Mom!!

Our Alien Baby?

So I have been informed that sometimes the sound of the heartbeat sounds really fast and kinda like an alien baby. Just wanted to assure you all that we are not having an alien baby. The Heartbeat is completely normal. Brandon said it has something to do with your browser or something like that. So no worries! We are not having an alien! YEAH!!!
