How much will Austyn weigh???

Kristen gave us a good idea. Lets see who can come closest to what Austyn will weigh and how long she will be when she is born. It will be fun to see who comes the closest.

My guess is 8 Pounds 4 Ounces 21 1/2 inches long.

David guesses 7 Pounds 3 Ounces 21 inches long.

Still Pregnant

I had my doctor appointment yesterday. I am dialalted to a 3. If baby Austyn is not here before December 28th I will be induced that day. Here is a picture of the nursery and the most recent one of me that I have. It was about2 weeks ago for Davids Christmas party at work.

Temple Square

David asked me 3 years ago this weekend to marry him.

Jon and Gina

This past weekend David and I took two different trips to Temple Square to see the Christmas Lights. We went Friday night with Jon and Gina and then on Sunday night with Scott and Angie's family. We had a blast both times. You can tell by some of these pictures we took.

Baby Dallin has arrived!!!

My sister Ashley had her baby boy on Tuesday Septmber 25, 2007. He weighed 8 pounds 13 ounces and was 20 1/2 inches long. After a labor of 30 hours he finally made it. His name is Dallin Edward McDonald. He is so cute and we love him to death. Makes me excited and VERY nervous for our baby.

A newborns conversation with God

I saw this and thought this was pretty neat so I decided to share it with you.


A newborns conversation with God:

A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth
tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"
God said, "Your angel will be waiting for you and will take
care of you."
The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I
don’t have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy." God said,
"Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel’s love and be very happy."
Again the child asked, "And how am I going to be able to
understand when people talk to me if I don’t know the language?" God
said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your
angel will teach you how to speak." And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?" God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will
teach you how to pray."
Who will protect me?" God said, "Your angel will defend you
even if it means risking its life." But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."
God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and
will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you."
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices
from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am
to leave now, please tell me my angel’s name."
God said, "You will simply call her, "Mom."

Daybreak Flood

This is what our street looked like last night after about a 10 minute thunderstorm. We are lucky that our house sits up higher than most. The people with Kennecott said it was coming from the Oquirrh Mountains but we don't really know. Kennecott had a couple tractors further backing trying to build a dam to stop the water from coming. Never seen anything quite like it before.

It's a GIRL!!!

We found out on Saturday that we are having a baby GIRL! We are so excited, (well I think David was a little disappointed at first). Now we are having fun looking for fun nursery ideas. I am thinking that I am going to do it in Butterfly and Fireflies. Any ideas let me know. David told me to draw out what I want and he will do it. Does he know what he is getting in to???

First Blog

Well this is a little scary because I am not quite sure what to say. When David and I were in California last weekend Gina had me create a blog so I guess I should start using it. We had a great time with Jon and Gina, Mom and Dad Cook and Amber and Chris. Thanks for being great hosts. We find out on Saturday whether we are having a boy or a girl so we will keep everyone posted.
