Please vote on what you think? There is a poll to the side, let us know. I have the hardest time choosing names for my kids and I want them to be good. With twins I want them to sound good together, but not dorky like Jane and John (both good names, just dorky together). It is kind of tricky. These are the names I like the most, but I am still working on Ryan. Maybe if I have some good hard statistics he will like them too. Thanks and remember to vote.
Oh, did I mention that our twins are a boy and a girl. That is probably good information to have.

Introducing.......
I thought it might be time to announce that we are expecting. We found out yesterday that not only is there one baby, but there are two. WE ARE HAVING TWINS! Needless to say, I was freaking out a little at the doctors office, but we are very excited! It's hard to believe. My original 1 baby due date was Feb. 25th, but we are hoping to make it to Valentines Day. It is still a long ways away, but it will be here before I know it. Now it's time to think of names..... always the hard part.

Swimming
One thing I love about summer is swimming. We recently went to the aquatic center for an afternoon activity. We had a lot of fun, until Lucy decided she was mad about nothing and stood there and cried for 20 minutes. She was so mad she wouldn't even turn toward me. She is a stinker, but for some reason I still love her.

Why I haven't been Blogging
I have been such a huge slacker lately. However, I do have a pretty excuse, or actually excuses. Life has been crazy and a lot has been going on. Here is the run down of the excuses:
1. We got a puppy. I love my puppy, he is so cute! He is half french bulldog half English bulldog. We named him Oliver and he is so cute. With that being said, he is a lot of work. I knew before we got him that he would be work, but I think I underestimated just how much work he would actually be. We have had him for about 2 months now. We love our Ollie, even if he does keep me busy.
2. I had a major knee injury in February. I actually don't know what I did to it, but it swelled up huge with water on it and I couldn't walk for a few days. I had an MRI and discovered that I don't have cartilage left on the back of my knee cap. So, I pretty much am bone on bone in my knee. This is my knee that has already had 2 surgery's too. So, I have been getting these injections into my knee of this synthetic lubricant to help with the friction. There isn't anything else they can do to help me. It has been really stressful and emotional. I have really loved running the past year, and now I am not able to do it. My doctor told me that I should not run, but I can swim and bike. So, I have not been able to exercise since February, which has been so frustrating. But, my knee is feeling much better due to the rest and the injections. Which leads up to stress #3.
3. The Ogden Marathon. Last November I signed myself and my siblings up to do a relay team for the marathon. I was so excited and then I had my injury and found out I could not run. I was trying to find a replacement, but could not. So, I did it on Saturday with my siblings. It was so much fun, but I have been majorly stressed about the entire thing. I had to walk my portion (which was only 3 miles), and I was so afraid of hurting myself. I am happy to say that I am fine. My hips and shins were a little sore, but my knee was okay (I actually ran the last little part because I wanted to run over the finish line). It was so much fun and I am happy we did it. We finished in 5 hours 3 minutes. I was pleased with our time. We are planning on doing it again next year. It was a great experience.
Our team: Sam, Michelle, Emily, Me, and Jennifer
Running to the finish line with Jen, Emily, and Sam
Running to the finish line (Michelle didn't cross with us, her leg was right before mine)
Now that those things are either over or under control, I think I should be able to post more often. Although, who reads this. For the 2 of you out there, I will keep posting.

Family Picture
On Saturday we were at the Draper temple. This isn't the greatest family picture, but at least we're all clean and well dressed.
