Felix is 5!

Felix turned 5 on Sunday! He is convinced that being 5 means he knows everything now. He often prefaces his comments to Rex with, "When you're 5, you'll be able to..." He also asked me, in all sincerity, "Mom, am I old enough to drive now?" We had a fun birthday weekend at a small indoor waterpark where we played while Pittsburgh got pounded by 2 feet of snow. We're supposed to get more snow throughout the rest of the day today, which is fine with me because my #1 pregnancy craving right now is...snow! Thanks for the wonderful birthday well wishing phone calls, cards, and thank you Grandma, Grandpa, Lisa & Lizzy for the wonderful birthday and Valentine's package. The boys were thrilled with everything and we love you all very much!

In other news, we've finally made it to the 2 week countdown to the new baby. I had an appointment yesterday, and my doctor was concerned that I was measuring small (Seriously?? I'm a tank!) compared to how I was measuring with the boys at this time. So, she sent me to get an ultrasound, and baby proved the doc wrong by having a current estimated weight of 8 lb 8oz. We'll see how accurate it really is in a couple of weeks! Scott is in the midst of a weight loss contest at work and has currently lost almost 12 pounds. We are trying to meet in the middle with our weight which is not that far off from each other. Yikes!

Felix lost his 2nd tooth a few weeks ago

Get The Tent - Read By Riley Johnson

Riley wanted to show grandma how well she can read - enjoy.

Hey this is Bubba. I did not take very good pictures but this is me on the night I went to Judge high school's winter formal. I went with a boy named Joe and he is a senior at Judge and very nice. Just keeping you guys up with my life ha. I will put a cute picture of him up too so you can tell me you think. Don't worry guys I did have a jacket the whole night. It was very cold. The dance was down salt lake. Anyway just thought you would want to see!

Sentimental...

I've been trying to catch up on printing pictures which has sent me on a sentimental journey. I'm especially sentimental with Felix nearing kindergarten. It's definitely going to be harder sending him away than I thought. So here are some now and then pictures and videos of the boys.

Sledding

We finally got enough snow to go sledding behind the tractor on Saturday. Macie was a good co-pilot, while Riley was a pro on the sled.

Holiday Hoop-la

I might be a more consistent blogger now that I have a PC once again. I am not an Apple. Plus,Scott discovered this morning that our Mac was not working! Why do all our computers die? I'm pretty much sick of computers. I'd rather kill trees.

Here are some pictures from the holidays. Christmas was a success despite the discovery of a few cheaply made and worthless toys. Scott had a week and a half off work which we all enjoyed. There was a lot of sledding and snow shoveling involved. Sadly, he returns to work tomorrow. We now await the arrival of, by the looks of me, a very chubby baby. 53 days until due date...SERIOUSLY?? That long?!

Merry Christmas
