Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes!!

Life is about to get insanely busy in our family....in a good way! During the next few months Roo and I will keep growing, Blake will turn 2, Madi will graduate from DHS, I'll host a fabulous bridal shower, Sam will graduate from BYU, Liza and Morgan will tie the knot, and the Bone's will be moving to Logan! Aaaand ALL this will take place after we move next week into our first home, sweet home!!!We've been looking at houses in AF and thousands of building plans for about a year, and we finally found the perfect fit. We snatched up this 1900 sq.ft. one-story, and it has plenty of space for our growing family.We closed this afternoon, and we're thrilled to be adults and pay a mortgage ;) I'll be breathing easier when the move is over (thank goodness it's not far) and more pictures to come when we get situated inside. Here's to starting an exciting new adventure in a new home, ward, and neighborhood!

Last Thursday we got an early Valentine's present, and got to peek at sweet, little baby Roo.Here's a valentine message from our little BOY! Blake gets a little brother, and we can't wait for this little guy to join our family! He kicked and punched like crazy through the whole ultrasound. Cute little bug!! I just love him already! If I ever dreamt about this baby, he was always a boy. I'm actually really excited (and somewhat relieved) that he's a HIM. These two brothers will be such great buddies! After the ultrasound we let Blake pick his brother's outfit to wear home from the hospital. Pretty appropriate for a July baby :) Blake has been saying the baby was a boy for months now, so the next day we let him share the news. We got a "bamoony" (balloon), and he took it to the elementary school to show Nene and to Daddy's work at the bank.I sure LOVE my sweethearts!!! Yesterday Blake helped frost cookies for Daddy at scouts, we watched "Guess Who," ate chocolates, and snuggled. Low key. Perfect :) Big changes coming right up in our family, but I'll post on that when things are finalized!!
