Survey Time!

We ended up going to the doctor yesterday morning because I had a sore throat and high fever. After a few tests we found out that I have strep:( I am doing better today after getting an antibiotic and some rest. The trick now is to not pass it to James and Drezden! The good news is that we scheduled our ultrasound and will find out on Valentine's day if this little one is a boy or girl! Please take the survey at the right for fun (Gender of baby #2) and the results will be posted on the 14th!

Valentines and More!

Is it done snowing yet?! I went into Wal-mart today with the weather dry and cold and came out to a blizzard! Of course Drezden did not have on a jacket (trying to get that kid to wear a jacket is like trying to get me excited about a root canal!) so I put my jacket over his head and ran out into the snow with short sleeves on! I am sure we were quite a sight to see. Here is a picture of our driveway and you can see how hazy it is from the blowing wind.











My friend Kelsey sent me the cutest Valentines present! (Thanks again Kels!) She sent popcorn hearts with candy to decorate them. Drezden and I had quite the experience today! Every time I would put on a candy and turn to get another one he would take it off and eat it! After saying "No!" so many times, he just picked up the whole heart and started munching! He loves popcorn:) We made some for the little neighbor girls and for some others. He decorated Grandpas all by himself with "geen" things. Every color is green today!






















On a sad note, Prophet Gordon B. Hinckley passed away yesterday. I love this man! He always had a way of speaking directly to me without saying my name. As James and I heard the news yesterday, I couldn't stop thinking about the glorious reunion that must have taken place in Heaven. I can imagine our Father in Heaven saying, "Well done my faithful servant. Thank you." He will truly be missed.



















Bonus: Here is Drezden with his Mega Block creation showing you his muscles!!

Kids and Markers!

Tonight while Drezden was eating his dinner, I was working on writing a shopping list to take to the store tomorrow. He informed me he needed more juice, to which I got up and got him some. While I was up, he managed to get the marker I was using and not only colored his high chair but also his face. I wasn't worried about it because I figured it would be washable. HA! My little boy is going to have blue lips for a few days! Oh well- it is pretty cold here- today the high was 30 degrees. I keep a blanket in my car now it is so cold. It seems that it never heats up until right when I get to the store to get out! Here are some pics of the Blue Boy!
