Family Vacation



I was tempted to post these pictures in July to make it look like we took a vacation in the summer like normal people. But I'm working on not telling so many lies and the truth is I've told by my doctor that I won't be doing much traveling starting in a few weeks. So we took our 1 and only family vacation in May. We had a great time. Basically it was, relax, swim, eat, nap, repeat. It was awesome! I finally made my first trip to In-n-Out Burger. Seth has about a million shirts from every location he's ever been to and so it was time the girls and I tried it.
We took lots of pictures on this trip, but I'll save you all form looking through them all and just put them in my blog book.
We were all sad to leave and get back to reality. Seth and I have 1 more trip planned in a few weeks with some friends, and NO KIDS!! I Can't wait. After that I'll be home all summer. So feel free to stop by and tell me all about your fun trips, so I can be jealous.

Happy Birthday Seth








I think this was the year that Seth finally understood what it means to "exploit your birthday" as I'm always telling him to do. He had 3 parties and went to lunch with friends. (Well, that had to be postponed, long story).
I was very happy with it all. The only thing I wasn't too happy about was his birthday morning. Per tradition I wanted to him to have presents and breakfast in bed. But he was late for work and wanted a slim fast. Seriously, how boring is that?
I know I did a good job on the cake when his response was "I can't wait to post a picture of this on Utefans (his favorite web site).
I won't embarrass him with a long mushy post. But I will say he is perfect for me. I'm very lucky and so are the girls to have such a great husband and dad. Happy 31st!

The Results Are In


..................And it looks like Seth will be surrounded by all GIRLS!! I can't believe it! We're having identical twin girls. I was in shock. I really thought we'd be having boys. We had the names picked out and everything. But we're thrilled just the same. They're healthy and growing fine. We're so excited for this new adventure.

Are You Kidding Me #19

I have a huge crush on Justin Timberlake, especially after this. So funny, click here SNL .

I couldn't stop laughing at the Brittney reference. I don't know how he kept from laughing.

Loving It

Oh man I am loving American Idol this year! I love the judges, I love the talent. Okay so I don't really love the judges. I think Simon is the only one who knows what he's talking about. Although I did find myself in total agreement with Randy once tonight. Weird, I know. Every week I check blogs to see if anyone has posted anything. I am so addicted I almost want to see the tour when they come to Salt Lake. I say almost because a few years ago I looked into buying tickets for Seth and myself and they were $65. I felt like that was a rip off, but what do I know about concert ticket prices anyway, I can't remember the last concert I went to.
Anyway back to Idol. I have been a huge fan of both Adam and Kris from the start and if they don't make the 2 top tonight there is a serious problem. Although it should be noted that I've never actually voted. I say care so much but then never vote. I'll just cross my fingers my 2 favorites make it.

Pros and Cons of having Twins

I've been thinking about the good and bad that are going to come along with twins. I wish I could say I was only thinking positively but if you know me well you know I can be a little negative some times.

Cons:

Carrying 2 babies. Seriously, I know my body was not made for carrying 2 human beings. I barley make it carrying 1

Diapers



Pros:

BFF for life

Sleeping together. I hear there is nothing cutter than when they sleep together.
