It has been a while . . .

I have no excuse for not posting other than I just haven't done it. Needless to say this post will be a large post of what we have been doing for the past four months, ouch! I can't believe it has been that long. In November we did the normal November activities Mike turned 27 and we celebrated Thanksgiving with my family in Idaho Falls.
December was a fun month as always we decided to go cut our Christmas tree down in the forest. It was so much fun Carter loves being outside it doesn't matter what we are doing so long as he is outside, making winter a bit longer than usual. We borrowed Dad Williams fourwheeler to search for that perefect tree. Here we are with our Christmas jammies on Christmas Eve in front of our forest grown Christmas Tree. 
 Ready to go look at lights with Grandpa Williams
 
Some of you may know that Mike loves to do home projects. He is always finding ways to better our home and making it so beautiful. This is great because we moved into an old house with old grey shag carpet, purple carpet, green carpet, pink walls, pink appliances (which we still have) and seventies looking cabients. We have been so blessed to re-carpet thanks to Mike's brother, Steve. We also have been able to use countless tools thanks to Dad Williams. Mike works so hard and loves to do these project and I love to work along side of him and make this house our own personal home. But lately due to a bouncy baby boy and Mike returning to school and the fact that these project take money our home improvment has slowed down quite a bit.
But come Christmas break Mike got the bug again and decided he wanted to redo our cabients in the hallway. I was over the moon I dislike these cabients and couldn't wait to see how they would turn out. Mike did his research as always and we got to work here is the result!









Sorry I should know how to rotate a picture, but once it is downloaded onto the blog I have no idea. But you can still see the transformation. It is so nice I love them! January and Feburary have been busy and have gone super fast. Mike is working so hard in school (and doing very well) and working full time. He is a busy man, but is still an awesome husband and father. Carter loves when he gets home.
We found out last week we are going to have a girl and we are so excited to have another special spirit in our home. I sometimes lay awake and think about our new baby that will soon join our family, and I get giddy like a child on Christmas Eve. I know the challenges that comes with a newborn, but with those challenges comes sweet and unforgetable memories. She is due on July 13th.




 Baby Girl!!
First picture. She was very calm and didn't move hardly at all. When we had Carter's Ultrasound he was crazy and the tech had a hard time taking pictures, becasue he would not hold still. It is always so fun to see how far the baby grows in just a few short months. 




 Haircut time! If our little girl's hair grows like Carter's she will have long hair. We have giving Carter probably five or six haircuts. Mike does the cutting and I do the entertaining. We are getting really good at it. This is the only picture I could find post haircut. He likes to wear my hair bands on his head he finds them and puts them on all by himself. I promise I am not putting pink headbands on my boy.
I love this picture. This pretty much sums up our last two months. So much fun but tiring indeed!(this picture is pre-haircut as you can tell it gets long and crazy)
