It's a....

Today was my ultrasound. For those of you that know us, you know we're the surprise kind of folks. So if you're reading this hoping to find out if we are having a boy or a girl, you're going to be disappointed.

But our baby has all 4 heart chambers and everything is looking good! Here's some photos.



Neha's Visit


Our good friend Neha came to town to direct a conference she was in charge of at Snowbird. We had a great time catching up...and more importantly, going down the Alpine Slide! It was great to see you Neha! Come visit again soon!





Stay-cation

This year...because I am pregnant and still not feeling up to traveling (you know, having to eat every 2 hours so you won't get sick isn't really conducive to traveling...and I would feel super weird visiting someone at their home and asking for food every second) we decided to do a stay-cation. Devlin took the week off and we took it easy. We slept in, watched movies (Kung-Fu Panda 2 and Cars 2), went to the zoo, did the full visit to Temple Square, and ended with baseball games. We had a blast. Most importantly we had some much needed family time and I didn't have to stress about getting everyone ready for a big vacation. It was just what I needed!

This was at the Church Museum of History and Art at the children's display upstairs. They had a large screen with individuals dressed in native costumes that taught you how to dance, with a mirror behind you so you could see yourself.

Below is where the boys learned about different countries where the missionaries share the gospel and how some families live on farms.

4th of July

For the 4th all the Marcov's (except my parents...we missed you!) came for our water slide party! We had a blast! Here's some of my favorite photos from the weekend!

We finished t-ball and coach pitch for Maxson and William last month! They are quite the little players...but you can see that for yourself....




Happy Birthday, Gwen!



Gwen-e had a birthday last month! She's getting so big so fast! We had some of her friends from the "old neighborhood" here for a swim party. It was great to see the Ochoa's again...to bad the Brown's were out of town! Anyhow...her favorite gift was a microphone that Alli gave her. She hasn't stopped singing "Under the Sea" for quite some time. She also loved her sparkle shoes that she had picked out herself a couple of weeks before.

Gwen is so fun to have around. She gives the best hugs and kisses. She does a great job at keeping up with her brothers...but she still knows how to milk it when she needs too. She can put out her pouty lip and look up at you with her puppy dog eyes and say, "Pleeeese" whenever she wants something. She loves to dress up like a princess, cook, and dance. She also loves to kiss my belly and say she's kissing the baby.

Happy Birthday, Gwen!
