I know I really need to blog and put more pictures up, but I was looking at the pictures that I have on the computer and this is my favorite. Welcome to our family Carson Keller. Born September 9, 2009 (9/9/09) at 2:12pm 7 lbs 14 oz and 20 in long.

locks of love

Keilana finally did it!! She had enough hair to donate to Locks of Love.





Getting it cut.

Keilana and Karen and the final cut.

I think it looks very cute. Derk was shocked even though I warned him that it may happen today.

mickey here we come

The girls are so excited tomorrow we are leaving for Disneyland!!! Ok so I think I am the one who is even more excited!! I just wanted to leave a quick tip for anyone who is thinking about going. You can get really cheap park hopper tickets on EBay. Or if you like you can use the guy we are going through who I found trough a friend of mine. We are getting in for $45 a person. So if you are going let me know and I will get you his number. I don't know that I should post it on the web for everyone to see, it is the World Wide Web. So for this weekend you can all wish you were with me!!!

boy oh boy

We went to the doctor today and it has been confirmed we are having a BOY!!! It was a good appointment not much happened in fact I think the doctor spent more time playing with the kids then talking to me. But as the doctor said that's the kind of appointment you want at this point in time, that means there isn't anything wrong with the baby.
The girls are both doing good. They are excited to be getting a brother. I am still not feeling much movement but he is sitting closer to my spine so I think that is why. I don't think there is much more going on that is worth sharing. But I will post if there is I am feeling great so the computer is no longer a thing I refuse to use.

gender

I can finally post about my last Dr. appointment. The Dr. came in and asked me 'So are we going to find out today?'
Me-'No you can't do that to me again no one was here last time when I found out, we are suppose to find out next time that's when everyone is coming.'
Dr.- ' Ok then I won't look.'
Me- 'Yes we are going to look just don't tell me I want to see if I can figure it out.'
So we looked and I couldn't tell but I had him write it on the ultrasound picture and put it in an envelope and I brought it home and we opened it and are you ready........ IT'S A BOY!!!
Now the reason I had to wait to post. As you can all remember Wednesday way April 1st. I wanted a fun way to tell my parents and my mother-in-law so I went about found a card that said 'It's a Girl' and wrote on the inside April Fools!! and mailed it to them. My mother-in-law got hers on April Fools Day but didn't know who sent it and it wasn't until today when she called about something else that I asked her if she had gotten a card in the mail. She said that was from you?!? I still am not sure that she got that it's a boy until I told her but that's ok. Then I talked to my mom today and couldn't help myself and asked her if she had gotten the mail and she said not in a few days and should she be looking for something. I told her maybe and she said ok. Then right before I hung up said asked did you find out?? I told her to go get the mail and reluctantly she said ok and hung up. A few minutes later I get a call and she said they got the mail and she saw the pink envelope and said oh dang another girl and my dad saw it and said it looks like it's a girl. Then she opened the card and saw the April Fools and was excited that it's a BOY!!
Wow what am I going to do with a boy??? However there is a disclaimer I am only 14 weeks along and the baby was moving tons and as the Dr. walked out he said I'm excited to find out if I'm right. My big ultrasound is May 4th and we will know for sure then. But until then IT"S A BOY!!!

quickie

I know that it has been a long time and you all have been missing me so here is a quick update. We did get a puppy, we got the black one and have named her Mochi we love her. For those of of that don't know already or who weren't curious enough to search my entire blog, yes we are expecting baby #3. Thus the reason for no posts, I have felt sick and haven't done anything on the computer at all. I am just over 10 weeks now (the doctor pushed my due date back from Sept 13th to the 27th). Today I have been felling pretty good but it has been a really busy day. Anyway this is a quick update so I must go. I will post again soon if I continue to feel better.

which one

Ok so there is another puppy I am looking at and I can't decide which one to get. I would post a picture of her here but I don't know how to get if off the website so click here to see her http://www.darlin-lil-cids.com/AvailablePuppies.html I also would have had you click on here and have it take you to her but I don't know how to do that either. Oh she is the second puppy on the page. HELP me decide.

new addition

We have been thinking about it for a while now, but I think we have finally found a puppy. She is 6 weeks old, but because she is in Salt Lake it will be another few weeks before we get her. This is her and her sister. She is the one on the right. More pictures to come when we get her home.

We are taking name ideas, so if you have any let us know.

(Also if you know anyone coming from Salt Lake to Vegas or even St. George in the next two weeks and would like to bring a puppy let me know. If not my niece is going to bring her on the 13th I think.)

oh crap

A few days ago Derk was doing Keilana's reading with her and at the end of the story it asked for a word that rhymed with rap. Keilana thought for a second and said crap. Then looked at Derk like oh no am I in trouble?? Being the good dad Derk just said yup that's right, but do we use that word and she said no. I wonder where she got that from??
