We’re still alive- I promise!

So- we have A LOT to catch up on!

I am a working mom now at American Nutrition Inc. as a personnel assistant. It’s been… entertaining, stressful, and mostly makes me miss my kids. Christer is working at PartNet still and also teaching at the U of U. He loves that he’s “Faculty” at the university.

Addison is now 2 years old going on 7. She is extremely bright and loves to color, paint, ride her bike, run, “work” – which means she’s fixing something with the screw driver, cook, wash dishes, read, and try to take over her sister just to name a few. She’s carrying on full conversations telling about what she did, who she was with, etc. It’s really quiet entertaining having her in our family. She’s learning the “house rules” which are: 1. Listen/Do 2. Be Nice 3. Clean-up. She is a very fast learner and Christer and I are realizing that we’re going to need to start saving for her college fund asap! Christer is thinking MIT ;)

Lizzie has such a spunky personality and can easily hold her own next to her sister. She started walking only a month ago be is so agile and has such awesome balance. She’s going to be our gymnast. We’re thinking the Olympics :) She loves to be outdoors and I think she’s going to love swimming this summer. Lizzie has the personality that is SUPER friendly, she gets along great with other adults and children alike. I was in the nursery at church for awhile and so Lizzie came with me and Addison- and she completely captured the room. The children loved playing with her and she loved pretending she was as big as they were.

Baby Edwards #3 is coming along great. Due date is Dec. 19th but both the doctor and I are planning on the baby coming early so we’ll see! I saw the doctor today and he did an ultrasound  (he loves doing them- I of course LOVE having them)! It was so amazing! With the girls I saw them move and they each have their own ultrasound story- so this is the story for baby #3 (I’m still giggling:) ). Dr. Farley started the ultrasound and I immediately could see the baby and could tell where everything was- he/she was curled up with it’s hand over it’s eyes/face. Then he/she stretched out and I could we had a prefect view- just looking at him/her with it’s belly up and then it started to kick it’s legs and wave it’s arms pretty intensely- even Dr. Farley was a little taken back by it.  So we just watched and laughed as it went on for maybe a minute. Then little baby put his/her hand back over it’s face and curled up like he/she was taking a nap. It was incredible!

So that’s that for now- got to get back to work!

Love you all!
