"Above all else, children need to know and feel they are loved, wanted, and appreciated. They need to be assured of that often. Obviously, this is a role parents should fill, and most often the mother can do it best." ~Ezra Taft Benson

Monticello.... HERE WE COME!!

We are getting ready for our VACATION! YAY! We are heading down to Monticello, UT for a few days and then back to SLC for a night then to the ZOO! I can't wait for Kayden to be able to play with his cousins that we haven't seen in almost a YEAR! Where the heck does the time go? I am really excited also to be taking Kayden to the ZOO. He loves animals and it will be his first trip (well not counting the one when he was in my belly, LOL).

On another note~ The step parent adoption will be FINAL on June 30, 2010! We cannot wait! Kirk is a man that all men should envy! He is a great husband that does his best on a daily basis to provide not only the necessities we need to live, but the love his family needs! Especially his little boy that LOVES him ever so deeply! Thank you Kirk for being the best husband and daddy we could have asked for!

Just a lil ol' update....

We are so excited.... Tuesday we get to find out what we are having! YAY! I am so dang excited!

In the last month we have had a lot go on.... Well a lot to us.
Our #1 thing is we purchased a new (to us) vehicle! YES FOLKS it's official.... We are the proud new owners of a MINI VAN! Never thought in a million years I would own a mini van but.... It was an excellent price and fit us comfortably.
2: Lou came to visit for a few days and it was FANTASTIC! Loved having her here. We did lots of shopping (something that we have not been able to do in a LOOOOONNNNGGG time). Took her to dinner for Mothers Day since we do not get to spend it with her :(
3: Kirk started working in Gooding again for the next 3-4 weeks and I must say it SUCKS! I have not seen him ALL week long it feels like! But thankfully he is off SUNDAY, MONDAY and TUESDAY so I get him for Mothers Day.
4: Felt A LOT of movement from the little one inside (everyday for the last 3.5 weeks). Mainly kicking and punching... But this morning, May 8, 2010, I felt him/her kick my hand! It was totally amazing! I forgot how awesome it is to feel it. Now for Kirkee and Kayden to feel it.

Any who that's about it from us! Hope all of you mom's out there have an awesome Mother's Day.... And Tuesday... We will update with the sex of our (soon to be) newest addition!
