HE'S ALMOST HERE...

For those of you who don't know we did pick a name for our cute little guy.  It's Damon and we just can't wait for him to get here.  Although... on second thought... we still have a lot of preparing to do before he makes his grand debut.

I'm currently 34 weeks and expanding at a VERY rapid pace.  I'll post an updated picture soon.

2 DOWN... BUNCHES AND BUNCHES TO GO!

They say time flies when you're having fun!  How true that is.  I cannot believe Darren and I have been married for 2 whole years already!

Speaking of having a fun... we have a secret obsession for Chilies Chocolate Molten Lava Cake.  Who wouldn't!?  Just look at it.

Oh, and my cute husband brought home two dozen crazy bright red roses!

BABY SHOWER

So... Tricia & KJo threw me an EXCELLENT shower!  We tie died onsies... what an excellent idea!  Every new mother needs a plentiful supply of onsies... and you definitely can't have too many tie died ones :) 

31 WEEKS BIG

And this is 31 weeks big... only 9 weeks to go.  Man this goes by fast!

28 WEEKS BIG

So this is me... 28 weeks big.

EDUCATE YOURSELVES

Aedyn Has outdone herself once again!  How stinken cute is this!?  Oh and for the next picture... she has an EXCELLENT Cheese face even if she is wearing and undersized dolls bike helmet.

BIRTHDAY PARTY

Darren and Chelsea happen to share the same birthday so we had a joint Birthday Bash.  As always it was a lot of fun.  

I will say that Darren's Christmas prank came back to bite him in the butt with those shorts he received as a gift (inside joke).  He may think twice before doing a funny gift in the future ;)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARREN

We had a lot of fun the weekend of Darren's birthday.  We decided to head up to Salt Lake for a little getaway.  This is us at Macaroni Grill about to enjoy some DELICIOUS Chocolate Cake!  (Still not exactly sure how we ended up at one of my favorite restaurants on his birthday ;)  oops)

FAMILY FUN

We were lucky to have my brothers in town just after the holidays.  Mike currently lives in Washington DC and Rory in North Carolina.  They were both able to make it up just after New Years and we had a lot of fun!

BABY IT'S COLD OUTSIDE

What is the best way to protect yourself from the elements...?  Wear a marshmallow suit of course! :)  

This is our niece Aedyn and if we could, we would steal her for our own.

UNICITY WINTER PARTY

We had our Annual Winter Party for work... I just love having an excuse to get all dressed up.  (Next to Darren and I is my good friend Katie and her fiance Sam)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We had my family over to bring in the new year and we had lots of fun!  Watching Dad and Joni play Mario Kart with steering wheels was definitely one of the highlights.  I guess you can teach old dogs new tricks ;)

MERRY CHRISTMAS

We spent Christmas up in Rupert Idaho with Darren's family and it could not have been more fun!  There is nothing better than watching little kids on Christmas!  Not to mention the whole family was able to make it.  They even had LOADS of snow to top it all off!  I will however mention that the -12 degree weather was less than desirable.  Which is why our playing in the snow didn't last very long. 

IT'S A BOY!

Darren and I found out on December 17th that the little one in my tummy is a boy!  We could not be more excited for him to arrive.  If everything goes according to plan he will arrive on May 1, 2009.  We haven't narrowed down a name yet but we'll keep you posted.

ZERO TO THREE IN NO TIME FLAT

We got to babysit the MacArthur kids for a weekend and we had a blast.  We will however tell you that going from zero to 3 kids overnight is no easy task.  We realized pretty quick how 'non-kid proof' our little apartment is.  All in all we had such a great time... and from the looks of it we think they did too.

BIRTHDAY FUN

It was Joni's birthday on Monday and as you can see we had lots of birthday fun!

So... As you may know I'm currently the Primary Chorister and the Primary Program is on Sunday. Funny thing is, our ward thought we were moving (because we thought we were moving) so they released me last week. One week before the program :) Don't worry, I'm a nice and am still going to do the program so I don't stress the poor new girl out. But now after all of this crazyness I have to go back and tell the Bishopric 'Just kidding, we're staying now so we both need callings again' -- Hopefully they don't hate us too bad.

IT'S EVERYWHERE YOU WANT TO BE...

I personally would like to move to Figi. Who's with me?

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Thanks goes to Joni for my fabulous Wilma costume. Did I mention that I think Halloween is the MOST FABULOUS Holiday!? When else do you get to be whatever your imagination can think up and get candy for it?

ON THE ROAD AGAIN...

We went out to Idaho to visit some family. Why is it that all of our family members feel the need to move to remote areas that barely exist on the map...? Anyway, as usual we had a great time! We got a chance to head up to 'Day Break' to shoot some pictures and it was beautiful.
