Well it has been 5 days and we are all still alive. Actually things are going really well so far we are just trying to get everyone use to having a brand new baby here. Kylee is very protective and loves to hold her brother. Lex is interested every once in a while and holds him for about 2 seconds she is most interested in all the things that come along with him. Colton is really laid back except when he is ready to eat and when he is being messed with and doesn't think it is necessary. Here are a few more pictures from today.

Bad Mood
Alright so I am really bad about keeping this blog up dated right now, sorry. I finally decided that I better at least write a little bit, and no better time to write than when you are frustrated.
I guess to start the story, I have made it 35 weeks of packing this baby and I am look and hoping to see and end in site. I had a doctors appointment today, you would think it would be a good thing, but it wasn't. The baby is doing fine and still growing, I have been having contractions for a while, but been putting up with them, and I have previously asked the doctor if it would be possible to have this kid by the end of the month, to which he previously replied he thought it was possible but would make no promises so me being the dumb pregnant lady I am believed him until I brought up the subject again today just to reassure my self that going on maternity leave the 24 would not be wasting it. ( due to lack of pto I am only going to be able to take a month off) so anyways he proceeds to tell me he will be gone next week and my next appointment won't be until the 24th at which time I will be 37 weeks. So having a baby by the end of the month will be up in the air until that appointment unless I go on my own before then. And on top of that my normally mellow girls were OUT OF CONTROL. Needless to say I have been in a bad mood for the rest of the day.
As for our happenings for the month we have all been plugging along waiting for the weather to get nice outside so we don't have to be cooped up in the house any more. Danny was able to go fishing with his friend to Chester field, they had fun and caught their limit. We played hookie from church two weeks ago and went for a drive as a family, it was fun we went up towardsds Island Park then cut around through Driggs and Victor and took the girls for square Ice Cream cones in Swan Valley, something I use to do as a kid with my family. Here are a few pictures from our tripp. Hope all is well with everyone else and hopefully the next month will not have gone by before I write again.

These are Danny's spoils from his fishing trip.
The girls had fun hiking around Bear Gulch to see all the fun snow forts people had built.

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 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.
