Whoa, it has been a while!

Some one in the past few days has told me to blog, so here I am.

I have to tell you a cute story about Emma. We are at the fair and she has to go to the potty. With the door shut and in the stoll the door itself is about the middle of Emma's back when she is standing by it. After she gets off the potty and is pulling up her panty's she says, "Mama, I don't want anyone to see my bum". Her bum was wide out in the open, the door didn't come down far enough to cover anything on her :) I laughed, anyone walking in would have gotten a good mooner!! hehe. Nobody came in then so no one got mooned :)

We've been around pretty much all summer. We are still looking for a place to buy, but have recently found a place to rent till next summer, its for a Christian couple that only live in the area for the summer. They have a beautiful big! log home. We will continue to look for some land and possibly poor some foundation for a house this fall yet. We'll see how that goes!

As for some of you who don't know I am expecting #3 and I'm still feeling pretty crummy, pretty much nauseated all the time. Sure hope this passes soon. I am 13 weeks along, and got to hear the baby last week, so that was pretty exciting. I hope next month Ryan will be able to come along to meet the Dr., although we both know him since he goes to our church.

I'm pretty bummed because I had a great opportunity this year to go on the women's canoe trip! I would have loved to have gone!!! But Grandma Becky will be busy taking care of another grandchild that week so I had to refuse.

Emma is going to be 3 in a few weeks and is looking forward to that. She is into her ABC's and loves to sing that song. If you listen closely enough you will realize she doesn't say the J, but other then that it sounds great. She is also into saying "WHY" for EVERYTHING!!! Okay that drives me a little bit nuts at times. She has named baby 3, "Keeya" the name of a doll she plays with at Grandma's house, I guess that name isn't too bad.

Dakota is figuring out where her body parts are so that is fun to play with her. She has gotten a few more teeth this month and has a great sense of humor. She often has a smile on her face and is usually pretty agreeable. She's into following her sister around and doing what she does, but most times someone ends up crying. She is a sweetheart!

Ryan is working hard, and still comes home most days later then I would like. One nice thing about our upcoming move we will be a few miles closer to Ryan's work, and that means home faster :) He is still a wonderful husband and father and I love him a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyhoo that's the scoop I'll try to post some pictures soon.
