Paul never stops

So Paul has been very busy this summer just being a typical 2 year old. He has had a lot of fun, too. Here are some pics to show his happenings: He got a diaper stuck on his head and ran around the living room bumping into the walls and chairs, he put himself to bed with his favorite blanket and bunny friend, he found a squirt bottle and gave himself a drink after he finished spraying everything in the house (including the TV which quit working after being sprayed--don't worry we fixed it), he put the wipe box on his head and marched around saying "hat! hat!", and helped dad water the garden and lawn on more than one occasion.

It's for real

We had another ultrasound today and she's still a girl! Everything looks good and normal. I tried to scan the pictures, but it won't let me upload them here. I will see if I can figure it out this week. I have been feeling her move sooo much! She has periods of being very squirmy. I'm glad to feel her. I remember that being my favorite part of pregnancy. So, now we have regular checkups and wait until after Christmas for baby to come. I hope everyone enjoys the last bit of summer before school and other things start again.

Hot Summer

So this summer has been so hot and dry. We have spent a lot of time in the water, in the shade, and in cooler spots like the mountains. Well, at least we spent what time we had in those places! We went to the city pool this week twice. It was so much fun for Paul. His little friends packed him around the pool and took him down the slides. I was surprised at how much fun I had too. I wish I had gotten some pictures. We'll have to go again before the summer is out so I can snap some good shots.

Pics again, finally

Well, here are some new pics finally. It was a while since we had a working camera, and then it took forever to get back in the habit of taking pictures, then it took forever to put them on the computer. Here they are now!

This is Paul worshipping Uncle Kelly and Aunt Steph's picture after they left grandma and grandpa Jensen's house:














The next ones are Fourth of July fun at the Aurora, Utah city park activities:

The Results are in!

Well, it was 50/50 and it looks like the votes reflected that possibility. The ultrasound happened on Friday last week and the technician gave us her highest confidence that we are having a GIRL! We are very happy and hope that this time around, the diagnosis stays the same because Paul certainly did not stay a girl. :) The pictures were pretty clear and the tech was very certain, so I will trust it. We have another ultrasound in august and we can post video then.

family pics are in

Above and here are the pictures from the Jensen side of the family. I don't know when, if ever, we will get Woodward/Ludlow family pictures again. It would take a lot of work to get us all together long enough to do it. More pics are supposed to be coming later this week.

A NEW POST!

It has been a long while since the last post. We have been super busy. Jeremy started his online grad program, I have started new classes at night and have been teaching summer school for the last couple of weeks. Between all that and trying to have some family time, we have not had much time for anything else. Here are some updates:

• we FINALLY got our camera back from kodak after it would not turn on, so now we can take pictures and post them again. I will try to put some up this weekend.
• as I said we are in school and teaching and working
• our dryer broke so we have been having to spend even more of our precious time taking clothes to the laundry-mat
  
• and after much prodding from friends and family to let the cat out of the bag, here is a big ol' MEOW announcement that we have baby #2 due for new year's.

We are all looking forward to a fun and energizing 4th of July. We hope everyone else has a fun and safe holiday.
