I am now 20 weeks pregnant. I am due September 21st. I was convinced I was having another boy. Griffin has been on my case for some time asking when his brother is coming. Maybe one day. Infact, he was set on naming a brother "Pick-Up-Bug." If you ask him what we are having, he dreads saying the word. Either way, atleast the pressure is off. It will be great for Sienna to have a sister.Grant and Emilyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17732721273992481899noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7961584850271742047.post-90378029659189019742009-05-06T21:45:00.000-07:002009-05-31T19:49:23.880-07:002009January- HECTIC!<br />Here are a few things what we have been up to:<br />Grant and Griff attended the BYU basketball games<br />Snow mobiling<br />My brother Brian, his wife Natalie, and their three kids came to visit for a few weeks.<br />Grant and Griff skiing<br />Griff went skiing w/ cousins<br />My brother Todd and his wife Ashlee had an emergency visit to the hospital w/ each kid.

The vacation home we were staying in was broken into. The good news..They caught these guys while attempting to steal a car. My Dad, Brian, Scott, and Grant took off w/ my nephew Weston who had heat exhaustion. It was a LONG process! They met the police at the house, the police investigated, they went to the police station, filled out paper work, and collected our belongings. They finally made it back to Sea World as the park was closing. It is a MIRACLE that they caught these guys. Overall, we still had a fun and exciting time! Never a dole moment w/ my family. <br />Happy B-day Eric, Brian, Mom, Daniel, Rebecca, Taylor, Grant's Dad, and friends!Grant and Emilyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17732721273992481899noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7961584850271742047.post-47439279551553467372009-05-06T08:00:00.000-07:002009-05-21T07:45:24.520-07:00Finally an Update!<div>Although 2008 has come to an end, my first and last post was in September of 2008.
