REMEMBER THIS POST? (January 11, 2008)

Well, it is all starting to make a little more sense now!!!!

AND

!!!!!

I know, we can't really believe it either, but we are having TWIIN GIRLS! That's right...I am 20 weeks along now and actually feeling shocked, but great! The weird thing is, that post was on January 11, 2008, the same time the babies are due!!! I thought things were a little different from my first pregnancy, like I felt bigger and I could feel the baby move earlier than with Zach, but this was my second pregnancy so I just kind of figured I was stretched out more, my body new how to relax and be big, and that I just knew what to feel for with the baby kicking. Really though, there are 2 babies growing inside me and 2 "little nudgers" in there. I was hoping to hear it was twins (kind of) just so I didn't feel like I was gaining too much weight! Well, what a relief, I am right on target! Now I don't feel so big! AHHHHH! :) We are SO excited, still very shocked, but so excited and know we are so blessed. They will probably be here in December now. I was trying to avoid the whole Christmas baby thing, but what can you do?! The egg yolks on the due date, the pink helmet, and the pink stroller are all making sense now. Wow. What a day!

Me at 20 weeks 2 days with my 2 girls! :)

Top of the girls' heads.

Baby A was much more photogenic than Baby B. She gave a great view of her profile and left no doubt about the gender.

This is supposedly Baby Bs face. We aren't sure where, but I hope it is cuter in real life! Oh well though, a mother's love sees past that! :) Baby B was pretty shy. They said they are almost positive she is a girl, at least enough to announce it. But who knows, we could have a boy... At least we have the stuff.

Pink Helmets and Strollers

Zach was really interested in Maren's helmet. He wanted to try it on, so she let him! Pink flames...rock on boy!

They also let Zach try the bike on for size! Looking good buddy! This is as close as I EVER want to see you with a motorcycle again!

And yes, my son has a doll stroller, and his OWN doll! I saw the stroller for $6 at Toys R Us and couldn't resist. When we were in CA in June Zach loved pushing around the doll stroller at Grandma's that used to be mine! That one was green. Yes, this one is pink, but there are some blue stripes on it. Pink was all they had left! Anyway he loves it. Maybe all this pink is coming into Zach's life to break him into the idea of a sister? We will find out Monday!The doll was $1 off of E-Bay. An old Cabbage Patch Doll in mint condition. Shipping was 9x the price! :) HA! So I couldn't resist and bought it for him last Christmas. I named him Jack because I LOVE that name but I don't think I should have a Jack and and Zach. Anyway, everyone needs a Cabbage Patch doll! Justin even had one...Milton Hugh. Strangely enough, I really believe I had a Cabbage Patch with that same name! (Do you remember Katie?) Just another sign that Justin and I really are soul mates!

What a goof.

Before we left for Echo a couple of weeks ago we picked all our zucchini. We came home to this! Just for size help, that box is about 2 feet wide. I have made a lot of zucchini bread and we have delicious sauteed zucchini with almost every dinner. YUMMY! I've heard of a lasagna that you use long slices of zucchini instead of noodles. Sounds good to me. Any other zucchini ideas? Send them this way! I have heard of a

3 Years Down, Eternity to Go!

Well, it has been three whole years already! Happy Anniversary to us! Our anniversary just so happened land on a rainy day so Justin's boss called him and told him that he might as well stay in bed! He got the day off! Yea for timely rain. Our garden needed it too! So, we basically played catch up and did all the errands that we needed to from being gone last week. It was fun to have him around all day. Later that night we went to the Edmonton Temple and did sealings. It was a great reminder of the promises we've made to eachother. Man, I love Justin so much. We know that we have been so blessed these last three years and are so happy to still be very much in like and love.

Three Reasons to LOVE Justin

1. He has an amazingly strong testimony of Jesus Christ and the Gospel and great zeal to do what is right.

2. He is sensitive to my needs and works hard to help out and make me happy.

3. He is extremely friendly and happy. I love his smile and his determination to excel. ( I know that is more like 4, but I had to throw it in!)

I LOVE YOU JUSTIN SCOTT LOW! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

Zach does pushups with Justin sometimes. This video isn't the best, but you can kind of get the point. It is SO funny!

Echo #2 and the Cardston Parade!

We had one more week at Echo Lake. Beautiful. Zach LOVES it there. He is also slightly obsessed with shoes. He loved to go in the front room where all of the shoes were and try them on and "tie" them. He calls them "jews." :)

Zach got a blanket swing ride from his first cousins once removed. :) I think that sounds funny. Justin's cousins were at the cabin and Zach loved playing with them. What a ride.

Zach did a bunch of swimming and tubing, but the one new thing he did this week and loved was riding the Sea-Doo. He had a great job and just sat there and looked around once in a while. I made Justin promise me he wouldn't do any 360s with him on it.

And here we are at the Cardston Heritage Days Parade! Zach is sitting here with his Great Aunt Margie. He loved pointing at the horses and making horse noises. He also loved dancing and eating his sucker. What a sticky mess.

Here are my boys enjoying the parade with some of the family in the background.

Here is Zach picking up some candy that was thrown from the floats. He just kept trying to put it in his pocket and take it out again. Better than eating it!

After the parade we got together with a bunch of Justin's friends from high school. A few of us all had boys at about the same time. Zach had fun playing with his buddies. Yea for a small town parade day!

Happy Birthday to ME!!!!

Here I am on my 24th birthday! :) Justin made me eggs and toast before he had to leave early in the morning. A real breakfast in bed...what a man. Then he came home from work with this AWESOME present! I now own my own nice volleyball. Hooray! The rest of the day we prepared to leave home again and go to Cardston to continue the fun at Echo Lake. So, basically, it is birthweek. I love spreading the celebration.

Here is one beautiful view on our way to Echo. This is right after Logan's Pass in Glacier National Park. A must see.

Awww...

Ooooh...

I opened my present on Friday, ate Birthday dinner on Sunday, and blew out the candles on Monday, all 24. This was a delicious ice cream cake we made. French vanilla cake layered with strawberry ice cream and bananas all frozen together. Mmmmm...I think there are still leftovers in the freezers. Yes.

The Fruits of Our Labor...Actually, the Vegetables!

We've named Zach our Quality Control Inspector for the produce this season.

This one passed!

Justin and I got in our pjs, watched a movie, and shelled over 21 cups of peas!

So hap-pea! :)
(I know, pretty punny, eh?)

The proud sheller. We also got 12 quart size ziplock bags of beans and 5 zucchini! It has been really fun to enjoy the vegetables of our labor!

The rise...

...and fall of Justin! :)

Karen, Joanie, and Amelia on a wimpy tube ride...just how I like them. Luckily I am pregnant this year, so I have a legitimate excuse!

Woo hoo!

I caught him in the act! Ha ha! Gotcha kid. One of Zach's new favorite past times.
