WE FINALLY HAVE A BIG BOY

so the potty training has been along time coming or at least I have been trying for along time. I just really wanted to have it done by the time the baby got here. Well Cannon was not having it. He kept saying, "It is just too hard" and "I'm the baby." Well one day I took all of the diapers out of the drawer so when he went to get one they were gone. I told him there were no more and that I had to start buying diapers for the baby. He said, "Mom go buy me some more diapers." I said no and just like that he was potty trained. He hasn't even had an accident (minus the one night bed wetting). It is so nice I don't even have to ask him if he needs to go, he just comes and tells me he needs to go. The first few days he would only pee in our shower but now we have transitioned to the toilet. WE ARE SO PROUD WE FINALLY HAVE A BIG BOY!!!!!

Couple cute pictures of the boys in my bath and some of Easton and Ashton ice fishin.

Christmas and the New Year

I haven't been the best blogger lately but just wanted to update you. We had a great Christmas. Derek was off and it was so nice just to get to spend alot of time together. We were spoiled as usual and Santa did find us. The first thing Easton said on Christmas morning was. "See Mom I was Bad and Santa still came." I think next year Santa might have to teach him a lesson. Derek gave in and let us get a Wii. It has been fun to play together and keeps the kids busy while it is cold outside. Derek worked New Year's Eve which actually worked out great because me and Cannon are both sick. I hate not being able to breathe and can't take anything to help. We are so thankful for all the blessings we have and are looking foward to a great year. 12 more weeks till our house gets turned upside down by a GIRL!

IT'S A ...............

GIRL!!!!! I know I still can't believe it and I will not be suprised if when she comes out they happen to see a little extra something you know where. Just to make me feel a little more confident the ultra sound tech is going to just do a sex check at my next appointment to confirm. She was pretty sure it was a girl though! Headbands, bows, flowers, I can hardly wait :) Oh and we are thinking Peyton. Dr Cox said "But that's a football name". I know but I can't think of another baseball name and I just love Peyton.
