Our boys are growing up

Our boys are growing up so fast. Weston is practically an adult! Well sometimes it seems that way anyway.

Well Beebs is now 24 weeks pregnant and the fun has just begun. We have been to the hospital the last 2 days in a row to have the doctors give her medicine to stop her contractions. All looks fine but it is quite stressful on her to have to keep going and the medicine they give her makes her sick so there is really no good solution. Only 16 more weeks of fun to go!!!

I think people would laugh at him if we named him Elise

Yeah so our sweet little girl that Beebs is pregnant with, well it turns out she is a he. Yep we are having another little boy (Brennan) and of course we are excited. Weston on the other hand is still getting used to the idea of another brother when he so desperately wanted Elise (Probably because we have told him it was a sister named Elise and built the whole thing up)

Not only is it Brennan but the due date has been moved from December 10 to November 30. This is nice because that is 10 fewer days of pregnancy.

For our five year anniversary we went up to Cliff Lake and West Yellowstone in Montana. Beebs used to work at the lodge at Cliff Lake and so we went back and visited the old place. It was great. We briefly went into Yellowstone and say Old Faithful and some mud pots etc. It was a quick 3 day trip but it was so relaxing and enjoyable that it felt like a full week.

Pictures will have to come later. We are just so busy with life right now. It seems like every weekend we have something going on with either family or church. It is always good to be busy but a little free time would be nice.

Aidan has been a little sick recently which has kept him up at night. Interestingly however he is quite happy, just not sleepy which creates a bit of a dilemma for us because we want to sleep but it is hard to keep our eyes off of him when he is sitting playing and singing to himself.

It has now been almost 5 years since we were married in the Washington DC Temple. Weston still asks everytime we see a temple "is that the Washington DC Temple that you were married in?" We have had lots of good times in these 5 years. Last year we went to Disneyland with the boys. Pictures follow.

It's been a while

So life has been really busy for us latley. We have had several memebrs of Beebs' family visiting over the last few months, the boys and Beebs have each had a birthday, Scott's work has been nothing but crazy and stress-filled; basically we have experienced a lot of life lately.

Beebs has been busy with her scout calling. This past month she took all the cubs to a cabin by Smith Morehouse for thier summer day camp. They practiced archery, shooting, fishing, and worked on advancements.

Beebs is now 17.5 weeks pregnant and an ultrasound has been scheduled for July 23 when we will discover if we are correct about this baby being our daughter/sister Elise.

Yesterday was of course Independence Day and we celebrated by going to the parade in Murray which was unfortuanatley not very good. Too many walking comercials and very little by way of floats, horses, bands, and excitement. We then attended a neighborhood BBQ and parade which was not verywell attended but still a good 4th of July activity. We ended the day with the boys waving some sparklers around and what would sparklers be with out a few burns. Aidan was so facisnated with the sparklers that he felt it appropriate to try and grab the fire. His cute little fingers got burned and so he spent the night with a bag of ice which he would put on his hand everytime it hurt. It was quite cute.

That is life as a Daw for now.

11 Weeks And Counting

Hopefully only 2 more weeks of nausea etc for Beebs. It is about this time in her pregnancies that we say maybe this will be the last one. However things generally seem to get better after the first tri-mester and hopefully that will be the case this time as well. Of course we think this one is a girl (based on nothing more than that is what we have planned and so far we are 2 for 2) so maybe things will be different during the pregnancy since the last 2 have both been boys, and very very cute handsome boys at that.

The Big Brothers

Can you tell Weston is excited for a sister?

Weston & Aidan are so excited to finally get a sister to teach them what it means to be gentle.

That is right! Our beautiful wife and mother Brittany is due to give birth to Elise on December 10, 2007. She is almost 9 weeks pregnant and has had her first doctors appointment at which time we saw a quick ultrasound of our daughter (We have already decided the names and gender of all of our children. This one is a girl named Elise. Hope we are right! so far we are 2 for 2) We saw her heart beating and that was a relief for both of us. Besides that she really just looked like a little blob (she takes after Scott)
