Had some trouble getting these scanned in. This is the best we can do for now! They should pull up bigger if you click on them.

To recap: surprise pregnancy. Due Sept 1. 13 weeks along (end of first trimester). More details in an earlier post.

To make up for lost picture opportunities . . .

We had a 5 minute "photo-shoot" yesterday. Tyler kept putting his arm out like Buzz Lightyear (notice his shirt). Also, he wouldn't look at me straight b/c of the sun. A couple good ones in the batch.

The many faces of Kelsie

I actually got her dressed yesterday b/c we went to a recipe group with some women from my ward. She was too cute not to take pics of.

Fun for Tallon's Birthday!!!!

Fun in a Box

Left the room to take a phone call . . . this is what I found when I came back. Makes a mom's heart smile!!!

This box provided an entire day of fun. I need to remember that for birthdays =).

From Christmas Vacation

Kelsie LOVES the snow (eating it, that is).

I know it's sideways, but it's too funny not to post.

Excuses, excuses . . .

OK - so I do have a legitimate reason for not posting. I have not taken any new pictures of my kids for a month and a half. (Hopefully they forgive me when they're older). My excuse? Morning (more like all day) sickness (add in LOTS of fatigue). Yep! We have our first SURPRISE pregnancy!!! Due date: Sept 1. So I'm 12 weeks. Up until this week I have not been too keen on this pregnancy - bad timing and all. We are uninsured until June 5. We will need a bigger car to fit 3 carseats in the back. We make $100 too much each month & so don't qualify for Medicaid (though I found out yesterday we WOULD have qualified if we lived in Montana) etc...

So ANYWAYS I found this place in Billings, MT (only 2 hours away) that does ultrasounds for FREE. That sure beat the $500 they want for an ultrasound in Cody (small town - OBs can charge what they want, b/c there is no competition).

I have to say that this time around getting the ultrasound really helped me bond with the baby. It's amazing to me that just seeing a tiny little head and arms and fingers can melt my heart that way. So maybe I'm OK with this whole thing.

Being sick still stinks, though.
