So for those of you who don't already know we finally found out what we are having. As Sam has told everyone who has asked us that...."We are pretty sure it is a human!" So of course we have been contemplating ourselves what we thought we would have and had convinced ourselves that we were going to have another girl, even tough we would like a boy. I haven't really had any symptoms that seem so different from my other two pregnancies and so we were concluding it must be a girl. I have kind of bounced back and forth. Of course at first I thought it was going to be a boy and then nothing was really happening that lead to believe that it would be anything other than a girl, plus I had a dream that it was a girl and so I was convinced. And then last week the week before I dreamed it was a boy. Come here, which is it?? Well, the day before I really felt like it would be a boy and Sam really felt it would be a girl. Ashtyn has said from the beginning that she wanted a brother because we don't have one, she also was pretty set on twins so that she could have one and Hailey could have one. Hailey has consistently said she wanted a girl. So we went to the ultrasound and there is absolutely no doubt that it is a..............................
!!!!!!!! B O Y !!!!!
Can you believe it?? We hardly can. We have to keep pinching ourselves. We really are getting a boy this time. Yipee! Our little buddy. We are all so excited. Now we just need to make a list of boys names that we like. Ashtyn's vote is Carmel and Hailey said she wanted to name him Cindrellie. We asked her if we could call him Prince Charming and she said NO. Any good ideas for a boy name!

Random Happenings
Over the last month there have been some fun happenings that we have been a part of. First of all one of our favorite cousins came to visit. We were lucky enough to have him for dinner two nights. It was so good to see him. Our girls acted like he was part of the fam, coloring him pictures and giving him big hugs. (Sorry I couldn't get a picture to load, will try later)
Then we have also had a new addition to our extended family. Sam's brothers family adopted the cutest little girl from China. Her name is Summer. Our girls have loved holding her and playing with her.
She is adorable. We were able to go to her blessing and then about a month after that we were able to go to see her sealed to her family for time and all eternity. http://www.heartrockshome.com/photos/uncategorized/2008/03/23/carson_here.jpg
What a neat memory for their sweet little family. Because of the sealing we were also able to see one of our favorite aunts, Aunt Amy. (I couldn't get this picture either) She is so fun to be around. We sure did miss her hubby and her kids though.
And then just for fun I wanted to show some funny pictures from our Spring Break. A lot of people get to go on a trip but we stayed home and were lazy all week. Of course, Sam was still working but during the day the girls played dress up and barbies and princesses and then the best part of all was playing mermaids. Now they found their new swimming suits for this summer and wanted to put them on and we weren't going anywhere so of course I said yes. So they were both running around pretending to swim and slide down slides and kick the feet like mermaid fins.
It was adorable. And it didn't only happen one day it ended up happening every day for the rest of the week. So Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday I had at least one mermaid at my house. Hailey didn't want to wear anything else. She just wanted to wear her swimming suit nonstop. Of course there were a couple of times when we had to leave the house and she had to change and she also had to wear her pajamas to bed but other than that she was hooked. Then on Saturday we went to her grandmas house and Hailey had been downstairs playing and when she came up stairs she didn't have any pants on just her shirt and panties and I said what are you doing and she said, " I'm the naked mermaid." I wasn't so sure about that but I let for a little bit and then the next time I saw her it was only underwear on and then I had to try to convince her to get some more clothing on. She loves the little mermaid Ariel, and so she is just taking this to the limits. It is pretty cute. This last one of Hailey in her swimsuit, she is roasting a hot dog (magnetic magic star wand with a lipstick case as the hot dog) over a fire of crayons and colored pencils! That was just too cute!
Then the next week after spring break our daddy had to go out of town on business and we tried to do something fun each day he was gone so it didn't seem so long. My favorite was when the girls got out the umbrellas and started playing with them. It was actually sprinkling a little this day too and so they were so excited because it was like they were using them for real.
