All is well in the pregnancy department. I am only about 14 weeks but still feel a little yucky. Which is lame- I hoped it would be gone by now. I usually don't feel this yucky when I am prego but each time is different I guess. Otherwise, I am doing good. I don't really have any notions as far as gender. I am hoping for a boy to even things out & give Owen a little buddy to wrestle & play trains with. But of course we will be delighted with whoever comes our way. I have a few names I like, but of course Danny doesn't even want to talk about it till next month when we find out what we are having. MEN! The names I like are: boy-Gavin, girl-Quincey. What do you think?
I just love this time of year. I really do think there is something magic in the air. It is even snowing here today-awesome! We are about as ready for Christmas as we will ever be. Which is a relief. The kids are so excited-Averee tells me several times a day that she 'just can't wait for Christmas!' Me too! :0) Even Owen is old enough now to get into the spirit of it all. Kids make everything more fun & exciting! We have been staying busy, like everyone else, with all the traditions & fun things to do this time of year. Can't get enough!
I am in the Primary Presidency now-which is kinda new. I have never really been in primary so I feel kinda like a deer in the headlights. Especially since I am the counselor over scouts-that is a foreign language! :0) So it has been a learning experience to say the least! We have a really fun group of ladies though so that helps. A few that some of you might know: Dani (Shaheen) Jensen & Jennifer Larsen. I think we have a little more fun than we should!
Well, I can't really think of anything else that has been going on. Pretty much the same old around here. Which is fine with me! I hope you are all enjoying the season as much as I am!

3rd I love the candy cane blog paper
4th Tell Dani Shaheen Jensen Hello
5th Can't wait to hear what you're having and what Danny's input is on names. Men! They never have input on names except for shooting them down.
Maren!! Merry Christmas to you! That is awesome that it has been snowing in Southern Utah! Who would have thunk it? So glad the pregnancy is going well for you although I am sorry you aren't over the sickness! Very excited for #4! I love both names that you have so far! Congratulations on your new calling you will do a wonderful job! We are well just trying to get used to all the "white" stuff outside. I can't believe how cold it is here. I shoveled my first driveway of snow today. It was kind of fun but come March not sure i will be loving it. Merry Christmas and Hope 2009 is a wonderful one for you and your family!
Congrats! We definitely need to get together while I am in town. What's your number? Email me hillaryosnessatyahoodotcom
Glad to know you are still alive! Love your girl name! It's different, unique and cool. When are we all getting together over Christmas?
I love both those names! I am sorry you are still ill...you sure fake it well you look good!
Hey Maren! Congratulations!!! I guess I missed your big announcement back in November. I'm hoping you feel better by Christmas..it's got to let up soon!!! LOVE the name GAVIN...it was our #2. Quincey is also cute. I can't believe how much more fun kids make Christmas. Even though McKay is mostly unaware of the fact that it's Christmas...I'm SUPER excited for his first Christmas and the presents we got him.
Those are cool names!! Are you guys big Quincy Jones fans? That would be a pretty unusual name for a white girl, but that's cool.
Hope you will be feeling better soon, take care!
Oh my gosh! I haven't figured out my computer and your blog til right now and you are pregnant!!!HOORAY! I am so happy for you and Danny. Ryan said it really is true that you guys like to set the pace and see if the rest of us "can keep up". Sorry you've been sick, Lyndee has been too. She hasn't had one nice thing to say about being pregnant. And I have to say...if I dare...I thought Twilight was pretty lame compared to the book. Hope we can still be friends ;)
Yahooooo! Number four is so much fun. Glad you are trying to keep up, but still I'm still ahead! Great card this year, not sure if I'll get mine out in time, so forgive me if you get yours late. Hee Hee.
I love your girl name, that is so different and cute. I'm so excited for you Marv, bummer that you're still sick, hopefully it will go away soon. I'm glad you did an update even though you thought there wasn't much to say. In the post, there was lots I ddin't know, so I'm very glad you did. :)
When you all get together for the friend party, tell everyone I said hello and really wish I could be there. It is going to be wierd not being 'home' for christmas, this is a first for us, but it will be a good one still and a way for us to start our very own traditions.
Miss you and can't wait to find out what you're having.

So I have not viewed your blog since your "boy and his trains" posting. On my blog, for some reason, it didn't show that you have added anything since then! (I am not sure if it is because your blog is private and it does not update?) So, I just never went on to look. I am glad I did because I have just found out that you are expecting a baby!! Gosh, I wish I would have checked your blog sooner.
Congrats on the pregnancy. I miss your cute little family and Im sure they are all growing up and getting so big. Im glad you liked Twilight, I have not seen it yet but I will let you know when I do.. Love You give the kids lovins from me.. Happy New Year:)
