How time flys.

It is amazing to me how fast time is going by, work has been really busy so I haven't had the opportunity to update our blog much. If you couldn't tell, Danny was the last one to write on our blog he had to show off his new baby. He is pretty excited about having the Yukon. It has been nice so far. This last weekend we took a road trip to Caldwell to visit Steph, Nate and the kids and also to pick up some baby boy clothes that they are so graciously letting us borrow. While we were there we all took a mini trip up to McCall to see some awesome ice sculptures, I will post the pictures when we get the computer situation at home fixed. (Our desk top died in the middle of Jan. and Danny tried to piece one together but that didn't work so he ordered the parts and is building a new one. He is almost done but in the mean time my back room looks like a computer grave yard. I am just glad he has the knowledge a resources to do things like that to help save us money.) Anyways we had a fun weekend, lots of driving, but fun. Thanks to Steph and Nate for letting us crash at their house, the girls loved being able to spend the night with there cousins.

As for an update on the rest of our happenings, Kylee is loving preschool, she goes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. She is becoming quite the speed demond on her bike, I am a little nervous to see how she does when she actually rides it outside. Alex hates the days that Kylee has preschool she cries most days and wants to go to school with the big kids, she is slowly getting better but misses her big sis. She love to take care of her babies, I think she will be lots of help when our new one arrives. Danny is staying busy with work, he is taking on more responsibilities with the IT aspect of their company. In his spare time he is enjoying church Basketball, they have practice on Tuesdays and games on Thursday, there record isn't that great but they are having a fun time playing anyways. As for me I am continuing to adjust to my monstrous belly,( I am carrying this kid straight out front, completely different from the girls.) I struggle on a daily basis to tie my shoes let alone get socks on my swollen feet, so much for keeping my toe nails painted. Other than not being able to bend over the pregnancy is going extremely well, everything with the baby is looking good and my health has been good except for my horrible habit of wanting to sleep all the time. I am still working part time and I am so excited they finally released me from being ward chorister I guess four months late is better than never right!! I am also staying busy with Young Women's and I enjoy my girls they are so much fun. Well I guess I have rambled enough for one day. Thanks for reading.

New SUV

These are pictures of our new ride. We traded in the Buick on something a little bigger. We got it last Saturday and really like it so far. I haven't driven it much, because Danny keeps taking it to work.

Our fleet. The only thing missing is Danny's motorcycle

New Year new experiences

Well, time just keeps going by faster and faster. The last two weeks have been going by pretty fast we didn't have anything two out of the ordinary lex got sick over new years and I tried to keep up with the house work and all that jazz. Our most exciting and crazy thing happened on Thursday the 9th Kylee had her first day of preschool.she was so excited and she loved it. On the other hand mom was a little worried and Alexis freaked out. She is attending the preschool that the high school provides. Lex and I took her to school walked her in and when it was time for us to leave lex just started bawling, there was no way we were going to leave sister there. It took her a bout 10 min to finally calm down. We ended up going to visit Grandma Jensen at work, and then did a little shopping. By the time we were done it was time to pick sister up, we went back to the school and went in to get her. This time it was Kylee that wasn't happy, she was not ready to go but left with out a freak out, thank goodness!! Here are a few pics from her first day.

Well, Christmas has come and gone in a blur of family, food, fun, and lots and lots of snow. It was fun and the girls had a blast. Christmas eve was kind of hard for us though, I had to work so Danny was a good sport and took the girls to Aberdeen with his family, they had dinner and sang Christmas carols, Kylee even had to lead the music for everyone just like mommy dose at church. After they got back to Blackfoot they came by and visited me before they went home. My family also spoiled me, since we weren't able to be at Grandpa Sandau's for our traditional Danish dinner my Grandpa made me a special plate and had Heidi and Sam bring it to me, it was delicious!! Christmas morning I got home from work at 7 and slept till the girls woke up at 8:30. We had breakfast at home then we went to Grandma and Grandpa Sandau's for lunch and then out to my mom and dads to open gifts. We went home for a break and naps and then went to the Georges for dinner and more presents.
Friday we cleaned up the after math and then Danny and I had the opportunity to go with his family to Mountain River Ranch for a sleigh ride dinner and music, it was so much fun, cold but fun. Thanks to mom and dad George for making it possible for us all to go and go kid free. It was a great evening. We even got to see somebody famous, the actor Gary Senise, (CSI New York, Forest Gump) was there having dinner with his family. We got a few pictures and Leslie even went up and got his autograph. I will post the pictures as soon as I get them on our computer but we had a great Holiday. The next few days are going to be a little rough I some how got scheduled to work 3 nights in a row which I have never done so we will see how we fair after Tuesday. Hopefully I will be recouped for the new year and our anniversary.

Wrapped Up

So we finally got our Christmas all wrapped Wednesday night. It has been sitting all bought in the basement now for two weeks and I finally brought myself to get it done with a little help from a complaining elf who took off to play basketball after about 6 packages. Oh well at least he helped right. I think we are just about ready we just need to get his parents gift card and my dads
gift but other than that everything is done, yippee. Well all I can say is this past week has been busy, Monday we had a doctors appointment with Dr. Larson, the baby's heart sounded great and he said everything looks good we go in today for our big ultrasound at the hospital. Danny also had a soccer game that night they won 5 to 3. Tuesday I had a dentist appointment then mutual we went caroling and I froze my but off. Wednesday we watched Kaylynn's kids why she went in for her first ultra sound, then we delivered our Christmas treats and then I went visiting teaching, then wrapped presents. Thursday/last night I worked. Today Friday we have our ultra sound and then the Christmas party for my work. I just hope the weekend will bring a little less business. The girls can't wait to go outside and play in the snow I just hope it will be warm enough that they will get the chance this weekend. Merry Christmas to you all!

Holy cow I am losing track of time!

So any way it has been over two weeks which is craziness.I have tried a couple of times to get on at work at get this thing up dated but every time I tried the internet was down here at work. So her we go for a quick recap. Thanksgiving was great we were with the Georges this year I made the contribution of pies, I made six of them from scratch, I used some apples and cherries that I canned and they turned out pretty darn tasty. We did our annual day after shopping trip we got some great deals and spent way to much money as always. We did however pick a little 2 year old girl off of our giving tree at church and got her some things also. We took the girls out later that day to help us get the finishing things for her gift and they had fun. The last few weeks have been busy going to Danny's soccer games and mutual and working. We did how ever manage to get the tree up the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Here are a few pic from this fall and from the tree decorating. The girls love being outside and they had tons of fun decorating the tree, it will be a miracle if it is still standing by the time Christmas gets here.

Playing catch up again

Well, it has been a little while since we posted to the blog, (sorry.) Anyways we have had some exciting news we had an ultrasound on Monday and we found out that we are going to finally be blessed with a beautiful baby BOY!!!!! Yeah!! We are excited, when we first found out Kylee was pretty mad, she told the doctor before he did the ultra sound that she wanted a Dora the explorer baby and when he saw it was a boy he told her we were going to have a Bob the builder baby, she just sat in the chair and glared at him. It was so funny. Danny didn't really say much but you could tell he was playing the very proud papa part. She is starting to come around, she is just excited that we are growing a baby. She can't wait to have someone to help take care of.

As for the rest of the month we have been staying busy with work and church and Danny has also started an indoor soccer league, so hopefully soon I will get some fun pic posted. I can't believe that Thanksgiving is this next week this year has gone by way to fast for me!!
