Grammy decided to switch up her summer car. She got this bad boy out of the garage and the boys think it's the coolest car ever...because basically it is :)

Drumroll Please...

IT'S(not) A BOY!

We had an ultrasound done a few weeks ago to see what this little pnut is. We we're a little shocked and very excited to hear that there will be some pink in this family. The boys are super excited for baby sister to get here. They love seeing all her new clothes and accessories. I'm 16 weeks today and finally feeling a little better. I still have a day or two a week that are crappy, but things are so much than they've been the past few months. I've been feeling her move the past few days and can't wait until the boys can feel too. They both talk to her all the time, sing her songs, give her hugs, make sure she's doing good, etc. I'm going to have two awesome little helpers! Link says he's most excited to "help get her dressed and to babysit (so he can be the boss)".

Much Needed Vacay

Daddy and I went on a cruise again in April. The boys stayed home with my parents for a few days and with Daddy's Mom and their Aunt Shaunna for a few days. We managed to talk the Woods' into coming with us, again, and had so much fun with them. It was such a nice, and much needed, break from reality. I got pretty worn out by the last few days, but overall the morning sickness was so much better than it had been up to that point. I was going to do a different post for every day, but instead you get one really long post with lots o' pics:

Day 1: Flew into Tampa. Our flight left SLC at 6:45 am, so it was a REALLY long day. The Woods' picked us up from the airport and then we all got on the boat together. Later that night the boys surprised us with the "professional" pictures they had taken. Together. With their pizza.

Day 2: Fun day at sea. We slept in, ate lots of food, lounged out by the pool, got sunburned, played cards, took naps, etc. It was bliss. Other than the sunburned part. That night was formal night.

Day 3: Grand Cayman Islands. We didn't have a lot of time on the actual island, so we decided to go snorkel and swim with some sting rays with the time we did have. It was awesome! I didn't do the snorkeling part, I thought it may make me vomit, but Daddy and the Woods' did and had a great time. They even got to see a 6 foot electric eel. The sting rays were a highlight of the whole trip. I'll try to attach a video on the bottom of this post. Grand Cayman is so beautiful!

Day 4: Cozumel, Mexico. We started this stop with nachos and virgin daiquiris at The Three Amigos Restaurant. Total tourist trap, but really good food and the best balloon animals I've ever seen. I only lasted about 30 minutes before a combination of the heat, humidity and just being tired got to me and I had to go back to the boat. The other three went and explored/shopped in downtown Cozumel and then the boys went scuba diving. It was Ben's first time going and Daddy was just stoked to finally go again. I think they had a really good time.

Day 5: Last day at sea. What a great way to end a great trip. Pretty much the same as the first day at sea: lots of eating, sleeping, cards, water slide, and just being relaxed. Thank you again to Ben and Tami for making the trip so much fun, Grammy G and Aunt Shaunna for taking the time to fly in and take care of our boys, Grammy and Papa for also taking such good care of the boys and groceries and house, and last but not least, my sweetheart for being my favorite travel companion and best friend. Oh how I love him.

Don't mind all the bums and random body parts of strangers :)

Grunt's Party

Grunt wanted to go to Jumpin' Jacks for his birthday this year. We did a small little party on friday night and he had a great time. The only things he requested were a Luigi cake (which is IMPOSSIBLE to find), balloons, treats, and root beer. Easy enough. Besides the cake. Thanks to all who came and for all the wonderful gifts.

Random Pics

When I upload the pics from my little point and click, I found these gems:

GARTH

I'm finally getting around to posting about the Garth concert. It was everything I hoped for and more. I felt great. I ate good food that actually tasted good and stayed down. I slept like a champ. And my Garth was amazing. Simply amazing. Thanks Dad and Mom for joining us and taking us to dinner. We loved hanging out with you without the little monsters. And thank you Mackay's for taking care of the little monsters!

*the only thing on the stage* I plan on going back in 2011, who's going to join me?
