The news is out

So hopefully everyone got it. Yes, we are expecting baby #4 in December 2008. It has been a new experience being pregnant and sick with big kids. They notice when they have cereal for dinner a few nights in a row and sometimes lunch too. I put off telling them as long as I could for the fear that they would tell primary teachers or friends. I have been told about several new babies as a primary teacher so i know how easily it slips out of them. Anyways, funny story I figured I was safe to tell Jenny since she is still little and who can understand her right.. so i said "Jenny, guess what! Momma has a baby in her tummy " and she looked at me so seriously and said" momma, why did you eat him." I did have to laugh at that.

Do you get it?

Owens Family Sand Portrait

DADDY JOSH CAMP OUT

Jake couldnt take to the father sons campout with our ward this year because of work... so they went all by themselves up to payson, arizona and found a fishing hole. Even though they were only gone 24 hours they came home happy and with 6 fish to cook for dinner. The girls however were in tears because they didnt get to fish when they went with daddy but we all got to enjoy the fish but not so much the smell.

Hailey Owens

Bailey's teacher came up to me and asked me if i had noticed that bailey had changed her name to Hailey. I had noticed a few things coming home with Hailey on it but I hadn't really paid attention to it. So I asked Bailey why she wanted to be Hailey now. She smiled and said "Mom, why didnt you just name me Hailey because my favorite letter is H not B. I said i was sorry i dint know that her favorite letter was going to be H. She said that H was her favorite letter because it started with her favorite thing......... HORSE. and she wanted the same letter too. I thought this was so funny but told her she better start liking BUTTERFLIES or BALLONS....

puppies and more puppies

So I thought that i would post some grown up puppy pictures they are all big and ready for homes... they are cute but full of energy. We had one of the puppys get bitten by a rattle snake in our back yard this week. It survived but will be scarred for sure. So I decided that having 10 dogs in my tiny back yard is hard but it is worse to have a sick one.

Indy Anna Jones

The Kids are really into indiana Jones and went and saw the movie this week. After we had dinner (spagettti) Jenny was excited to have her own Indy Beard....

the girls new look

I took the girls last week for a haircut and bangs... I was so excited and Bailey was all for having less tangles in her hair but Jenny would not let the hair cut lady touch her so mom cut bangs but wasn't brave enough to cut the long stuff.... so here is the before and after picture
