Dinosaurs!!

My sister got tickets to take her family to see Walking with Dinosaurs. Unfortunately her husband was unable to get out of work at the last minute. However, fortunately that left an unused ticket and they invited Gracie and I to tag along. Gracie absolutely adores her cousins, so an outing with them was cool enough. But the show was incredible. Gracie was absolutely mesmerized by the whole thing. She wasn't even afraid of the T-Rex! Super cool special effects and what other chance do you get to be up close to these awesome animals. We had a BLAST! Thank you Tracie and Rob and kids for inviting us along.

Exciting News!

So Monti and I found out yesterday that we are expecting another baby!! We are so excited and a little bit surprised. We have been going to see a fertility specialist and the doctors had told us that I hadn't and wouldn't ovulate this month. However, we had been praying and fasting along with many of our friends and family and I guess Heavenly Father knows better than those doctors. So here we are with a modern day miracle on our hands! I can't mention this news without telling all of you who fasted and prayed for us, Thank You so much for all of your love and support. You have helped to bring this special gift to our lives. We Love you!! I started all of my medications (Heparin shots twice a day, progesterone cream, Baby Aspirin, Metformin, etc.) last night. Having 4 miscarriages under our belt and only one healthy pregnancy, we are always worried. But we have faith that everything will turn out as the Lord wants it. So keep us in your prayers. We can definitely still use them.

Labor Day

We were able have dinner with Monti's family at his sister Maria's house on Labor Day. We really enjoyed having the opportunity to chat with his siblings and parents and Gracie had an absolute BLAST playing with her cousins. She spent the majority of her time going up and down the stairs over and over again. Her cousin Brianna patiently followed her so I didn't need to worry about her falling.
