PINK or BLUE

Whenever we mention keeping the gender of our baby a secret, we get a lot of complaints. So if you want to know what we’re having, we’re going to make you work for it!
Each statement below describes either Elena or Tyrel. If you think the statement describes Elena, write ‘girl’ in the blank and if you think the statement describes Tyrel, write ‘boy’ in the blank. At the bottom, total up how many ‘girls’ and ‘boys’ you have, the one with the most is the winner…what we are having! Be careful though, you may be fooled on a few of these! We’ll post the answers soon or I guess you could just call if you can't wait.

1. You might be a __________ if you and your brother sniffed gas when you were little.
2. You might be a __________ if you asked for “Magic Potty Baby” for Christmas.

My Birthday to the Present...FINALLY

Okay this is kind of backwards but this is a picture of Silas and Tyrel the first morning we were in our new apartment. We had gone grocery shopping the night before and were too tired to put the non-perishables away so we left them all over the floor. Silas was in Heaven the next day when he got to sit on the floor with Dad and eat goldfish, Cheerios, and granola bars!

This is my roommate Shelley and her new little baby Hunter and me and Si-guy who looks huge next to him.

I got to go out to lunch that morning with my old roommate Jennifer while she was in town from Hawaii and with our other roommate Shelley.

Mom made Rosca for my birthday and Silas loved finding the baby dolls inside the cake! Tyrel took me out to ice cream and onion rings (yum!) And he spoiled me with a new camera and my favorite game "Ticket to Ride" aka TRAINS! Finally I am all caught up on my blogging and the million pics I have been taking.

New Years/ Christmas on the Farm

We went to the farm for New Years/Late Christmas with the King Family. Silas loved the guitar that he got (especially when the boys were playing guitar hero). He also loved to play the drum set for guitar hero.

His uncles had a good time playing with him, tossing him around, and taking him sledding.

The boys drove the snow machine around the fields, and Keslin even rode behind on his snowboard. Tyrel talked me into a short ride on the snow machine. At take-off I screamed because I was so scared but it was actually really fun!

We had a great time and enjoyed all the yummy food that Mom King made!

Christmas with Jon and Chels

Finally I can add these pictures! We loved having Jon and Chels here for a few weeks over Christmas. We went out to eat at Chili's one evening. Silas made it much less than easy to eat our dinner to say the least! Then we went to Temple Square to see the lights.

On Sunday evening we had a tamale making party at our house. My Abuelita and Tia Ery came over to teach us how to make tamales. Janet and Ray and Darian and Cassie also came over to learn and help. They turned out so yummy and we are planning on making them for Mom King next time we go to the farm.

Silas has finally started eating bananas and in this pic he was being a monkey.

The family threw Chelsy and I a b-day party which was a blast! We had a mystery dinner called "Panic at the Prom" and we all dressed the parts.

Pa was the jock and Chels was his girlfriend the cheerleader and prom queen.

Jon was the greaser kid, he prefered that we call him "Biff" and I was his sister the poor girl who still tries to be fashionable.

Tyrel was the nerdy boy, he preferred us to call him "Poindexter McFly" and Steph was his date, the hopelessly unfashionable girl who tried to be popular.

Mom was the goth kid who always was rolling the video camera, and Izzy was the high school principal who tried to be cool by wearing prom attire from her time.

And at present time we got SEWING MACHINES! Yay! After the prom, Jon (Biff) made Silas workout with him.

Update

Just a little update on our little family. We moved into our new apartment this past weekend and we are almost all settled in, minus hanging things on the wall. We love it and can't believe how big it is compared to our apartment in Rexburg! We find out whether we are having a boy or a girl on Friday and we can't wait! Sorry no pictures right now, I have to wait until we get internet at our apartment so pictures so come shortly I hope!
