Little Levi

Levi has discovered the water dispenser! AAAAAHHHH! He pushed this chair over, got a cup out of the drawer, and filled it up three times. I'm impressed (and grateful) that he even bothered to use a cup.






I love this second picture, because it shows how proud he was of himself. He felt so big. I love my little Levi!

We're having a Rice Rice baby!

Yep...we're pregnant! We will have baby #4 the first week of June. Actually, it will be the end of May...my doctor said he would induce at 39 weeks (since Levi came pretty fast and I didn't get my epidural), so I'm planning on it! Anyway, we are excited. Katelyn thinks it is a "gril" as she says it, and has already named her Cassie. I think it is a boy because I have been pretty sick and I have only been sick with Levi so far. But we will see...we will let you know when we find out!

Haloween (finally)

We went trick or treating at Novell, then went to a ward party, and then Chris took the girls trick or treating around the neighborhood---way too much candy!

Halloween Party

Chris and I got invited to a Halloween costume party...we took the cheap and easy road.

Can you guess?

I am white trash and Chris wore his birthday suit! We got an award for Most Original Costumes. (I think that is just a nice way of saying Cheapest and Easiest costumes...what do you think?)

Mummy Pizzas and Pumpkin Carving Fun

The Pumpkin Patch

Here are some pictures of when we went to the pumpkin patch before Halloween (I'm a little behind).

Progress in our basement!

Chris has been working hard on the basement in his few spare moments. We decided to hire someone to do the drywall and texture, so we are almost done! He has finished our office, so I think it's time to show off some before and after shots. I am very proud of him!

This was his uniform to install all of the insulation.

Office, Before

This is how he looked after using the paint sprayer. He used a mask and eventually wore goggles over his eyes and a t-shirt on his head so that he wouldn't look like the above picture.

Office, During

Office, After

Office, with furniture! (Her workspace)

Chris bought this furniture from an online auction. It was used at UVSC and was originally a dark burgandy color. It turned out great!

His workspace (far right)

Levi's 1st major haircut!

BEFORE

(I should have taken a picture of the back of his hair, but it was basically a mullet)

DURING

(Notice the strip of shaved hair down the middle)

AFTER

Isn't he cute?

First Day of School

I can't believe we have a 1st grader! Madison loves 1st grade so far. She loves that she gets to see and play with her friends everyday!

Katelyn is going to pre-school twice a week in the afternoon. The morning of the 1st day she asked me at least 20 times, "now can I go to school?"

Our Dream Vacation

I thought I would get on the ball and give this blog thing a try. This is such a great way to keep in touch. I wanted to show some pics of our fun summer vacation to the beach and Disneyland. We had such a good time!

Catchin some waves! What a fun Dad!

This is Madison boogie boarding all by herself!

Our princesses!

The girls got to meet 5 princesses!

Da boys lookin cool in their 3D glasses getting ready for the Muppets 3D movie.

Da girls lookin even cooler in theirs.

Once again, what a fun Dad!

sunscreen + sand = one happy, sandy boy!

That's it for now!

Love, Heather
