Final Countdown

We have a date! WHOO HOO! March 11 at Banner Gateway! YIPPE! Just 2 weeks away! And I had an ultrasound the other day and they are measuring 6lbs. 15 oz. and 6 lbs. 5 oz. So good size boys! The end is coming and there is much to do. I don't know if I will ever be ready.

Here are some cute new pics of the girls....they have quite the personalities these days. They are saying the cutest things...I knew I would forget if I didn't write them down.

Olivia-
Was complaining of ear pain-went to the doctor and came home and told me she had an "Ear Bi-Section"

She wanted some french fries but they were hot....after some screaming and I toseed her a few and told her to "Knock yourself out!"
She ate them and replied, "I knocked myself out...."

Audree was praying that Olivia would be obidient and kind. After the pray Olivia told Audree..."Sissy you worry about yourself."







Audree-
She doesn't talk in full sentences. For instance if Grandma's are around she will hug them and say, "I'm so happy for ya." Translation-
I am so happy you are here!

Also she picked some pecans while in Thatcher my mom was helping her crack them she said, "I love you nuts!" Translation-
I love you grandma...thanks for helping me crack nuts.

She also will randmonly come up and say a few times a day, "Mom I like you so much."
Sweet little girl.





They have been playing so nicely these days....I love my girls!

Lessons learned...

The funeral was lovely. I learned so much about my grandpa and his awesome life. A wife he loved, righteous children, church service, jobs that he loved, grandchildren that he made feel special.
His motto
The Church is true, The Lord has been good to us, The Best is yet to come!

We made it there and back safe and sound....only some sweeling from traveling.
It was so wonderful to be there with family.





Oh and instead of Aunt G-know taking the girls down the zip line, they did it themselves! Whoo hoo!

Farewell Grandpa Udall

On Tuesday we lost our sweet Grandpa Udall after a battle with pneumonia. It was all very sudden, just a few weeks ago he contracted pneumonia, then he went into heart failure, his lung collapsed and his sweet wife called him home. You might remember Grandma Udall passed just 7 months ago. Grandpa hasn't been the same since. He has been depressed and lonely and just not himself. We are so grateful for the plan and for the knowledge that we have and that they are together forever.

Some of my favorite memoires of grandpa.
*He always made you feel special. He would grab your arm and say, "You're alright."
*He had a nickname for everyone....I was L.B. That stands for Leah Beah
*He would always make me sing "Rejoice rejoice" from the messiah. And giggle afterwards.
*He was such a righteous example. He has been a bishop, stake president, mission president and a temple president.
* He loved having fun things for us grandkids to do. Riding the train, or the cable car, both of which he made. He took us on an adventure to the jungle and chopped down the brush with a macheti.
*I loved hearing him give talks. He would do the cutest laugh/cry to try to hide his emotions.
* He loved grandma... Ever since my grandma's death he would take anyone that came over and tell them that this was his most prized possesion. He would talk on and on about how well she looked in this picture.
* I lived next door to him for some of my growing up life. I would go over and talk about the trials of my life. He always had such great sound advice. Always loving and never pushy.
* He married me and my sweetheart....was a special experiance it was to be sealed by your grandpa.
We will miss him dearly but are so glad he is not in pain anymore.

Services for Kenyon Udall will be this Saturday at 2 pm at the Thatcher Stake Center with a vewing at 1 as well as a viewing Friday night.
E.T.A.
My O.b. gave me the go ahead! YEAH! I am so looking foward to being there. If you didn't get the message my baby shower has been moved to the next Sat. the 28th at 10am.

What I woke up to this morning.....

I think I might have married the best man in the world.
I have been having a hard times these past few weeks at the end of this pregnancy. I feel like I am on an emotional roller coaster. My sweet hubby is so thoughtful, kind and dear to me. I love him.
I got a new shirt for my baby shower and got some Dr. Pepper and Mcdonalds french fries....yum!
Only 1 more month to go until I have some new babies to love on...and hopefully start feeling more like myself again.

Good Behavior...and other news

Ever since the girls turned 3 their behavior has been hard to say the least. The tantrums, the "No's" and the disobeying is really trying on my pregnancy nerves. I think 3 might be harder than 2....what do you think? They want to do everything themselves and want to have a say in everything that goes on. I felt like all I was doing was threatning and bribing all day long. So for FHE last week we had a lesson on Obedience and then made a chart. Anytime I feel like they are being kind, quick to obey or share they get a sticker. When they fill up a section they get a prize. This is them after their first prize...we have a prize basket that they can choose from.
I love that I am looking for the positive all day instead of yelling and screaming.
