Well, we have not been up to all whole lot. We are BORING people.
Here is the update since our vacation back in May!!
To start off, Chad passed is CPA exam this summer! He spent alot of time working on this and we are so proud of him for all his hard work!
We came home from vacation to get back to school. Yes, that is right, I took a summer class. Math 1050 to be exact. I will never do that again. I hated that class and I really struggled with the class since all the material was smashed into a shorter time period. It was awful but on the plus side, I didn't flunk! This was the class that made my love for math disappear. It was that bad.
Shaleigh finished her dance year with an invitation to be on one of the competetive dance teams. She was so excited and has been loving it so far. We also ended the year with her Spring Dance Recital. Sorry for the blurriness of the picture. I struggle with figuring out my camera.
June was a boring month. Like I said earlier, I was in summer school and didn't have too much time to play. The kids finished school the second week in June and wanted to play all summer. Thank goodness two of them are old enough to go outside without me and are old enough to watch Landon. In June, we also found out that our baby is a BOY. I was really worried about how Shaleigh would react to the news of this but she has been pretty good with it. We just keep telling her that she will always have her own bedroom and will never have to share her stuff with anyone. That seems to make her pretty happy.
July brought the Boys' Birthdays! Tanner turned 11! Wow that makes me feel old. All he wanted was a RipStick! I was a little worried about this. I thought for sure we would end up with broken bones but he picked right up on it and does really good on it.
Landon turned 4 this year. He is quite the kid and his personality has really come out. He has us laughing all the time. He really wanted a remote control truck! OK he is four does he really need one? Heck yes, he needs to keep up with all the big kids. He loves it!
Tanner and Shaleigh started school again on July 26. Tanner is in his last year of Elementary School which is 6th grade down here and Shaleigh is in 3rd grade. They seem to really like their teachers and are doing really well. They are currently off track for another week. So that means that their school year is 1/4 over!!
In August, Shaleigh's dance team performed in the Fire, Water, and Ice Festival that the City of Kearns does each year. The day started of with a parade first thing in the morning. She loved being in the parade and thought that it was the greatest thing she has ever done.
And then in the afternoon, she had a dance performance at the Rec Center where the festival is held.
In August, Shaleigh also had a Birthday and turned 8. She couldn't really tell us what she wanted that wouldn't cost us an arm and a leg or that she wasn't too young to have. So I used my imagination and figured that since she wants to cook stuff all the time, that she should have an Easy Bake Oven. She was excited for this but guess who ends up cooking the stuff when she wants to play with it? You got it, I do. So I guess, I got the Easy Bake Oven!
In September, over Labor Day weekend, Shaleigh was baptized by Chad.
I took her dress shopping a few weeks earlier and she found the one she wanted and then we took her out and had her picture taken for some invitations. They turned out cute.
After Shaleigh's baptism, we had all our family over for lunch. It was a good time.
Landon also started Preschool in September.
He loves it. After I pick him up, I ask him what he did a school that day and he can never remember. I think he is just there to play with other kids and to get away from being at home and bored with me. But he does remember what he had for his snack that day. He is a funny kid.
And for the biggest news yet, at our house anyways. Tomorrow is the big day. We are scheduled for a c-section at 7:30 a.m. and will finally get to meet this little (or big) guy that we have been waiting so long to see. The kids are excited and I am just excited to finally get this over with. So hopefully, I can talk Chad into updating this thing tomorrow too with the little guy.
Gunner went in for his two week check this week and is now up to 8 lbs. 13 ounces and he is still 21 3/4 inches. He is doing very well and is only getting us up once a night, sometimes two. The kids love him a little too much but they are a good help when I need it.

Before we left Fantasy Land, we had to go on "It's a Small World" just to say we went. Chad said that he fell asleep. Shaleigh loved it and was pretty camera happy. 
Tanner has a new girlfriend. Dora loved him and couldn't keep her hands off of him. She was rubbing his arms, chest and even his face. It was funny.
He was interesting. He would stand there and not move at all. He was very still but when he would move he was like a robot and he made this buzzing noise with his mouth. We sat there and watched him for a while and watched the different people walk up to him and just look at him and then laugh when he would move and scare them. Very interesting.
Shaleigh and Landon thought they were pretty cool but I think Tanner thinks that he is a little old.
