Really???

8 people think I'm having a boy already? I think I know who the lone girl voter is...Ryan said he was going to vote girl just to be different. Maybe people really think I'm having a boy? Or, maybe people see that other people think I"m having a boy and don't want to feel like their going to be wrong? We would like a boy, but does it really matter, no! A girl would be totally fun and I would instantly feel like a pro! A little boy would be something totally new, and a nice way to insure that we at least will have one of each gender! So, tell me what you think. For those of you that have voted, why a boy? We have a few months to go until we find out, so we'll see. I should be going in for my first appt. an a couple weeks. I'm excited to get that first ultrasound to see the little baby! We'll keep you posted!

Dress Up

Skylee has found a new hobbie...she LOVES to dress up. If it's not in real "dress up" attire, it's anything she can find. I must say, she has somewhat of a good sense of style, she knows how to layer well :) Usually if she's being quiet back in her room these days, I can safely assume that she is getting dressed, undressed, then dressed again. It's so fun as she changes clothes/costumes, she acts like whatever it is she is wearing. Enjoy a few of the pictures I've snapped lately...

Our Exciting News!

While we were away from Ryan I found out that I am pregnant! I didn't want to break the news over the phone, but I knew I couldn't wait a week and a half to tell him in person. Skylee and I went to the store in Park City Ut and bought supplies to send hime this little package. We sent a baby bottle with "Sugar Babies" inside, along with the positive pregnancy test.

Ryan recieved the box Thursday afternoon and called me after double checking online that two lines meant it ws really positive.

Allen Baby #2 is due April 12, 2009! It seems an eternity away from now, but we are so happy!

Playing Catch Up

It's been a while since the last string of posts. Ironically, all the last posts were of our trip out to California, and these new ones are similar. Just when we thought we were done traveling for a while, Skylee and I had the opportunity to fly back out to CA to go on a road trip with my mom, dad, and brother Alton to Park City for a family reunion. We made a little vacation out of all the driving. The family reunion was great. It was so much fun seeing my aunts, uncles, cousins and their kids, and Grandma Skaggs! Skylee had a lot for fun with her second cousins Hallie and Anne! After the reunion ended our group spent some time near Salt Lake for a few days. Skylee and I visited Temple Square and had a great time visiting more with family there. Thanks Uncle Rich, Aunt Nancy, Kayla and Lauren for letting us stay in your beautiful home! We made a few stops along our trip back home to Mirror Lake, Provo Falls, and Cedar Breaks (breifly). It was a great trip! The few days we were in CA during our trip, we finally got to see Uncle Ryan (my brother), Laura/John and their little girls. We had a nice visit at Grandma Allen's house where Aunt Lynn, and the girls were there. I do regret that my camera's batteries were dead so I didn't get pictures while I was there, but I'll post those soon. By coincidence we were able to attend Carder Lloyds baby blessing, it was great to see and visit with Holli/Jake and family. A very special thanks to my parents for making the entire trip possible. We love you!
