What a little trouble maker!




















Oh where to start! Our dog Syd is so much fun and has so much personality...when she's not being a trouble maker! She has to have all the attention on her and if she does't she will do something naughty like chew on rugs, table chairs and whatever else she can find. She even lost two of her permanent teeth chewing on stuff and now she looks loke a hillbilly with an underbite! So I figured enough is enough and went out and bought her the biggest bone I could find so it would take her forever to chew. So far its been working and she's keeping busy with that, lets just hope she grows out of this stage soon!!!

Time flies!













Wow I am really behind this month! Time just flys on by.. Angie and Keith were in town(from Michigan) over the weekend, and we got to spend time with them. It's always good to see and spend time with them. We can't wait to go visit them in August and of course see Utah vs. Michigan in football! By the way Go Utes! Anyways we went to dinner and then did some miniature golf after with the family on Saturday night. Heres a pic of the girls!

Warning this gets mushy!

So since being Valentines and all(well a couple days ago)I just wanted to write and tell Grant how much I love him! He really does so much for me. Putting up with me I'm sure isn't an easy task and he does very well, these past couple months I've kind of been a slacker! I have been so tired every day all day and just feel like I have no energy! It's slowly coming back but I'm sure it will get worse as I get further along and bigger. So anyway heres to Grant for being such a wonderful husband and friend and always being there for me! I Love You!!

My personality test!

Alli, your true color is Green!









You're green, the color of growth and vigor. Good-hearted and giving, you have a knack for finding and bringing out the best in people. Green is the most down-to-earth color in the spectrum — reliable and trustworthy. People know they can count on you to be around in times of need, since your concern for people is genuine and sincere. You take pride in being a good friend. For you, success is measured in terms of personal achievement and growth, not by status or position. Rare as emeralds, greens are wonderful, natural people. It truly is your color!

This was fun! You all should try it..

I even got Grant to try it and this was his color! Fits him perfect..

Grant, your true color is Yellow!

You're yellow, the color of joy and energy — two things you definitely bring to everyone around you. It's hard for anyone to be sad or lonely in your presence; your sunny disposition and cheery outlook just won't allow it. The warmth of your personality shines through in the kindness you show friends and family (and strangers, too). Always ready with a lighthearted joke or heartfelt compliment, you know how to make people feel good about themselves, so they can't get enough of you. Yellow is a warm and inviting color for a warm and inviting person — you!

Coupons are GREAT!


So my good friend Naomi is an all time pro at using coupons, and getting such good deals! Whatever she gets is pretty much free, she nows exactly how to work them so you get money back and can use it toward other stuff.. So I decided that I want to take this on and start learning how to be a couponer. Well let me just tell you how much money and savings we've already saved. I got 15 jumbo size Huggies diapers and 65 boxes of Huggies wipes and 80 of the trial size wipes and I've only paid about $15 dollars for all of it! Isn't that amazing!! Thats what you would spend on one thing of diapers. We have saved well over $300.00. I am truley sold on using coupons and have quite the addiction now. I never realized how expensive having a baby could be so I am stocking up now! So I must apologize now if any of you get stuck behind us in a line using our coupons because you will be waiting a LONG time! Thanks Naomi for sucking me in..

June 26, 2008

Well I finally decided to announce the good news! We are expecting!! I was very hesitant for a while, and scared as well.. Back in October 2006 I went through a nightmare of a miscarriage. I didn't even know I was pregnant with twins until the day we found out they were gone at about 11 weeks, and unfortunately had to have a D&C. I won't go into many details , but there was so much more that happened so needless to say, it caused me so much pain and heartache, that I was SCARED to death to get pregnant again!! I finally put my faith in the Lord and knew it was part of his plan, and that everyone has their own set of trials and that this was one of mine!
It took me forever to actually want to believe I was really pregnant, and that everything would be okay. So far everything looks good and thank goodness there is only one this time and not two. We find out in a couple of weeks what we are having! YAY! My due date is June 26. Grant and I are so excited and just can't wait for our little miracle!!
