Some Utah Picts

We have been having fun out here in the Wild West of Utah. And wild the weather has for sure been as yesterday when it snowed for three hours. Yep, it's almost June and it snowed. Good thing I packed Jack and Avey one outfit of warm clothes and jackets so if we went up in the mountains they would be warm enough. Their shorts have barely gotten any use. Anyway, we are loving being here, and although I am not good at taking a camera with me anymore since I'm used to Eric having his i-phone that can take pictures wherever we are, (we miss you honey! Well not just for your phone...) here are a few pictures other people took of my children and what we have done. :)

Aunt Kristen said Jack came up to her and started putting the earrings up to his ears just like she was, but I have to wonder if he was a little coerced into it...


First blue sno cone also from aunt Kristen was a HIT.
Jack loved it, as you can tell with it all over his mouth.


My cute grandparents let me stay in Provo with them on Sunday night. That morning we also had so much fun with the Hakes kids while their parents were packing and moving to Orem. We went and played and had lunch at the McDonalds off University in Provo. It has a VERY COOL PLAYPLACE there. Five kids under four and me. It was actually really fun, and the time sure went by quickly. Don't worry Hakes- you'll only have 4 under the age of 5 once your new little girl comes in October. Here are some pictures my grandpa took of them before we had to leave.

Here is the whole clan minus Avey. Dallin and Hannah were not so excited for the pictures.

I love this feet picture.

Jonie is so beautiful, and such a great girl too!

I like these two of Jack, even with a little messy face.



I LOVE these pictures of Avey.


And you see this a lot with Avey right now, her finger in her mouth,
it's because her bottom tooth just popped through!
(And the one right next to it is swollen and almost ready to come out as well!)

Teeth already?! Ali has been teething since she was a month old and has yet to pop one yet...

I am so impressed you are doing Utah with the kids for a month on your own- so brave! I am glad to hear things are going well- but then again, you never were one to complain!

Those pics are darling of the kids!

Oh my gosh, Jack looks EXACTLY like Eric in some of those pictures--especially the one where he's go a big grin, wearing the jewelry. I can't believe what a big kid he's growing into! And Avey is adorable!! Scott is SUPER excited to come visit "Cousin Jack" and "Baby Avey". I can't wait till Friday!

"Hello new world," says Avey.

Well well here we are. A long road of pregnancy, a long way from home, and a VERY short labor everything came out perfectly (pardon the pun). At 12:01 a.m. on December 8, 2009 Avey _____* Stevenson was born. She weighs 9 pounds, 2.2 Ounces and measures 21 cm in length. She has red hair (arguably strawberry blond), dark blue eyes, chubby cheeks, and a fabulously pleasant disposition. *We are still torn about the middle name. The competing middle names are JoAnna, Kristine, or Anne. This was a miracle in timing. I guess that means that Avey will be a punctual person throughout her life. Brooke called me (Eric) on the way home from picking up Sharon (Brooke's mom) from the airport stating contractions were coming every 4 minutes. We hadn't even gotten to our house when she called with "the voice" that told us to hurry up 'cause the baby is coming. That was a little after 10:30. We rushed her to the hospital down the road, I dropped Jack off at the neighbors house, an...

News Flash!

This is an 11 week ultrasound, and looks close to what my ultrasound looked like, I just can't find where my original went. Oh well, so is the sad life of a second child. Yes! It is true! I am 11 weeks pregnant! I was supposed to be 12 weeks pregnant today, but when my doctor measured the size of the baby it was a week smaller than 12 weeks, even when he did it twice. So rather than my due date being December 1st, it has gotten pushed back to December 8th. I get to be 11 weeks along for two weeks! Awesome! It's really not that bad, and I normally wouldn't wouldn't tell anyone until at least 12 weeks, but the doctor found a heartbeat, and says everything looks healthy and good to go, so I don't want to wait to tell people anymore! (Besides I "technically" waited until I was 12 weeks. :) For those that are dying to know I have definitely felt better than I did with Jack. I haven't taken any medicine to help with the nausea- and that could be ...

Another Grocery Craze!

After going to Albertsons this morning (6:15 AM- don't you worry, long story) and bringing in all the groceries from the car, Eric requested that I take pictures of everything and the receipts. So per request of him, this post is here. Here's all the stuff with Jack in the middle (Well almost all of it, Eric took a bunch of it to work today before I took this picture.) Don't worry, Jack wasn't part of the groceries I bought. All-in-all I got: 17 boxes of cereal 4 bottles of Pantene Pro-V 3 packages of Pampers Diapers 2 Fiber One Pancake Mixes 3 Bisquick mixes 1 Toaster Streudel (I loved those in middle school after going to the temple and having breakfast with friends) 2 Dawn dish washing liquids (28 oz each) 2 things of Tide (64 loads each) 3 BC pre-made frosting 2 Fiber One Toaster Pastries 8 Pack of Bounty Giant Paper Towels 2 boxes of Gushers 2 boxes Gogurt 2 packages butter 1 Malt O meal cereal 1 32 oz block of cheese Total without coupons: $233....
