A wonderful man.
My brother Jason past away today, he was a great example to us all. Always giving, caring, loving, kind, gentle, and he had a great sense of humor. I will miss him terrible, but he is in the best place anyone can be. We went to his house this morning before the mortuary came and he looked so peaceful, I know that he is looking down on us while he can walk, talk, hear, and be free from all the tubes, I am so greatful he was such a faithful man. I may not have grown up with him, but he has influenced me in my later years. I will always remember him for the wonderful person he was to his family and friends. I will miss you Jason and will always Remember and Love you!!!

July in review...
I was just realizing that Savannah will be 4 next month, wow does time fly!!! Not exactly sure what to do just yet, she wants to have a friend party, my anxiety says "no absolutely not", and yet I know that it is that time that she is old enough and since she has been in school she now has lots more friends. So if there are any ideas on what to do, I would gladly except the ideas and encouragement. So far I have thought of possibly doing a water party, not sure yet.
This month has been calm yet eventful, Savannah got what is called Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease so we took her out of school for the month so that she wouldn't get any worse, and it wasn't fun.
The fourth and the twenty-fourth were different than normal years, it seems as though I end up crying on both of those days every year because all I want to do is go to a parade, carnival and watch fireworks, but Eric can't stand the heat so he always gets grumpy and I end up crying. So this year especially because I am pregnant I didn't want to get upset so I didn't really plan anything, I figured "no plans, no disasters". It went well, we went to a car show in Logan on the fourth, and Lagoon on the twenty fourth, no parades, no carnivals and no fireworks (except the sparkler that burned Erics foot, I think that his Mom cursed him. hehehe). It was a change in pace and it all worked out. We went camping, and I made it through the nights not having to go to the bathroom and getting eatin by a bear, I wish we could have stayed a couple of weeks.
We had our Big Ultrasound this month as well and the baby looks great, the ultrasound tech said that she counted all fingers and toes, the 4 heart chambers looked great and the baby is still growing about two weeks ahead of schedule, we got some really neat looking 4-d pics. As for me this pregnancy is a lot different than with Savannah, it seems like I already don't have any room left for this little one to grow, yet when I had Savannah I hadn't even gotten to that point. We are looking forward to this new edition with excitement and some fear, I think that at least me I am a little more nervous this time, even though we did the newborn thing with Savannah that was 4 years ago and I feel like I have already forgotten it all, the only good thing is that we have a great helper on our hands. Savannah tells us that she is no longer the baby and she is going to be the big sister.

IT'S A GIRL!!!
So as everyone should know by now (thanks to Eric and Facebook), we found out that we are having a little Girl. At first I was really nervous as to what Savannah had to say about itthat as before we knew what we were having she said that if it was a girl that she would not play with her and would be very mad at her Daddy. I went into the dr. for a sinus infection so it was only Savannah and myself that were in the room, so when the dr. left the room I told her that it was a baby girl and not a boy and then waited, she then said "yeah I'm gonna have a girl" then I asked her if she was mad at her Dad and she said "no, I'm gonna have a sister". Phew... that was my only concern and now that it is out of the way, we are way excited to be having a new little girl. We got home and I had been to the store and bought a pink blanket, Savannah got out of the car and said to her Dad, "I know what we are having", she showed him the blanket and said "its a girl" Eric then got the biggest smile on his face, I think he is the most excited.
On Monday we will be at the middle of the pregnancy, and I feel very confident that this pregnancy will go much different than when I was pregnant with Savannah, so I really feel that we are half way through. I have only gained 3 pounds which the baby weighs 1 pound of that, so that makes us all happy, and then you wonder if the baby is getting enough nutrients, well the baby is measuring to be about 2 weeks ahead of schedule, and everything else seems be perfect. This baby is a lot more active than Savannah ever was, constant moving and kicking, especially into my bladder in the middle of the night... I wonder how that is going to be for camping??
Now our only challenge: Baby Names???
