The whole story.....
So I woke up at 2:30am Monday morning thinking I had peed my pants (I know to much info) and couldn't figure out what was going on. I wondered around for a little while but stuff kept coming, it wasn't a lot but definately something coming out of me. I was also having contractions but they weren't regular. I called the hospital at 3:30am and the nurse said if your water broke you would know it - don't come in. Luckily I had a regularly scheduled doctors appointment at 9:20 and told Danny to come with me just to make sure everything was alright. We have been planning this whole summer to go to Bear Lake this week becuase both of our families were up there so the whole way to the hospital we were making plans for Bear Lake. We got to the doctor and I did all the normal stuff. When the doctor came in I was like something is coming out of me and I have been having some irregular contractions. He was like I sure it's nothing but let me take a look. He looked and looked at us and said well it looks like you will have a baby by dinner time. I started crying and Danny was just shocked! He said I will call upstairs and go and get checked in. It was fun calling everyone to tell them we were labor. Nobody could believe it. I was dialated to a one and effaced 75% so I got on patosin at about 10:30, the contraction really started coming and I thought I was going to die so I got and epidural around 2:00. I was dialted to a 3 at 4:00 and by 5:00 they came in and told me to get ready to start pushing! I had to push for 1 1/2. I was exhausted but at 6:25 our little guy came out!

The completely shocked parents - I wish we had a picture of our faces when the doctor first told us "You will have a baby by dinner time" - this was pre horrible labor pains.
Danny almost pasted out when he came out, the cord was wrapped around his neck and I don't think Danny was prepared for all the gunk on him - so you can imagine how happy he was to finally hold his healthy boy.
Best noise in the world is your crying baby
It was a pretty crowded delivery room as you can see, plus Hayley who was on camera duty. We were all excited to meet him!
Grabbing onto Danny's finger. Ben has huge hands and feet - all Danny and talk about is his basketball career.
Welcome home! Don't worry Sammy made it in the picture - she has been the angel dog since we got home - everyone was so worried for us but she has been great!
Danny's first diaper change - he did great


Oh my goodness he is so cute, Danny and I keep asking ourselves is he really that cute or are we just proud parents.
All six grandkids! They were all so excited to meet baby Ben. Thomas walked up to him and said "HI" and then looked at me and said " I hold him" very matter a factly. Katelyn looks like she is in heaven even though its one more boy!

24th of July

The annual 24th of July breakfast up Mueller Park Canyon

The pregnant belly in all her glory! One month to go!


Will,Kate,Blake,Drew &Thomas at the Bountiful Parade - 6 pm + 100 Degrees = a terrible combination for an 8 month pregnant gal! (I didn't last long)
I think the highlight of the parade was watching my dad. He was pumped to had out balls for Wells Fargo, I think he called us about 10 times before the parade giving us updates on where he was so we wouldn't miss him!

PARTY TIME!

My cute niece and nephews at my family baby shower. As you can tell my amazing sisters and mom went to quite a lot of work. I am so grateful for what incredible family I have!
I made this tutu for Julie's daughter Hannah. It was possibly the cutest thing I have ever seen, watching her try to walk around with a huge tutu on! Dang she is cute!
At the Real Soccer game! Who know we traveled that far south, I am pretty sure we were in Mexico! It was great, crazy fans and fun friends!
Watching fireworks out on the boat on Bear Lake over the 4th of July
Some of my darling high school friends at my baby shower! I love them, they are the best and so sweet do this for me!
Matt and Besty's Wedding! We love those two, although I think Besty might be a little wary about the crazy group of boys she just married into!

3 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!

I can't believe it has been 3 years! What a fun day to remember! When I think about everything that we have done over the past years it sure makes me excited for many more!

Fun month of May

Our cute little family! I wonder how Sammy will take it when she isn't the center of attention!
A little Memorial Day golf up at Bear Lake. The weather didn't corporate with us most of the weekend but golfing was fun.
Don't worry Paige and I are married to probably the smartest men ever! So Danny hit his ball in a pine tree, yept, not sure how but he did, so Danny and Jason get the bright idea to through his golf club up the tree to get the ball out. You can guess that the club got caught as well. So Paige and I laughed as they tried to scale the tree!
Hayley, Ashley and I got together to take Ashley out for her birthday and do some planning for our upcoming girls trip. Turns out Ashley and I think alike!
My first Mother's Day! Danny got me my favorite flowers and he is putting in a new patio for me!
So for Christmas I got TWO tickets to Wicked. My parents gave me tickets and so did Danny's parents so I got to go twice. In case you were wondering if this picture looks a lot like the one when I went with my family it does. My mother-in-law is so funny, she saw the picture and decided we all needed to wear black or pink!

Easter Weekend!

The best part about the whole weekend (I guess it was technically Monday morning) was that we found out our baby room is going to look something like this! Yept we are having a boy! I didn't want to admit it but I secretly wanted a boy the whole time. Danny and I are both so excited, now we just have to agree on a name!
We got to spend Easter Sunday with Danny's family! Madi is about 2 1/2 and quite a character, she is talking so much and has a great imagination - this was her castle and no one was allowed inside!
My dad gave all the girls Wicked tickets for Christmas. It was such a good show. I can't believe how creative people are to come up with this stuff!
At Market Street Grill before Wicked, Dad and all his girls - we sure miss Jeffrey!
The whole family minus Jeffrey after a nice Easter dinner and egg hunt.
They had to visit the Easter bunny, Drew was scared to see him until we said he was friends with Big Blue then we was pumped to sit on his lap.
Baby animal day with Drew, Will, Katelyn and Blake - they loved all the animals especially the bunnies.
