Happy New Year to all

Wow! I am so glad that we made it through 2008. It was a year of ups and downs. Luckily more ups than downs. We are looking forward to 2009 to see what it brings us. Although we know that a baby is on its way. We are so excited for a new one in our family. Even Ella is getting excited for a baby. The boys worry about me as much as Jeb does always making sure that I am not doing anything to hurt the baby. It is fun to have such sweet boys. It has been nice these two weeks to sleep in and not have to rush to get anyone off onto the bus, but I am looking forward to school being back in. I do hope that all of you have had a great 2008 and have an even better 2009. I know that we definately will try to make it better.

First Snow fall!!

We had our first major snow storm last week and Jeb took the kids out on the four wheeler in it. He tied a sled to it and pulled them around the neighborhood. Then he took just Tyson out and took him out on some jumps in the field. Tyson just loved it. Ella loved all the snow she just didn't care how cold it was. Eric just wanted to walk around and put shoe prints everywhere. It was a really fun evening.

Wrestling is DONE!!!!!!!!

So Tyson had his tournament at the beginning of December. I know I am kind of slow right now. He did really good. He ended up taking third in his weight class. His whole motivation was that he wanted a medal really bad so he really worked hard to be able to get one.

We are Expecting!!!!

Yes, you heard me right. I now I haven't blogged for awhile. So to update not much has really happened with us other than wrestling. We spent Thanksgiving down at my Mom and Dad's and it was so much fun. We told our families this weekend too that we are expecting our fourth baby. Yes that is baby number 4. I have my moments of "What am I thinking?" or I am really excited. I am due July 5. So I'm only 9 weeks right now. I swear this is the slowest pregnancy ever. We told the kids on Saturday, Tyson was so excited he asks about the baby everyday. He is such an awesome big brother. Eric isn't quite sure he keeps looking at my tummy like there is no baby in there. Ella just says that she doesn't want a baby around at all. Jeb is excited. He has been so good to do everything that just makes me sick right now. I guess we'll see what happens I'm okay with whatever. Although I would like a girl so that Ella has someone to play with, but whatever Heavenly Father sends us I'll be okay with.

Make-up artist!

Well Jeb and I went outside for just a few minutes to take care of our puppy and move some stuff to the shed. It's amazing what you kids can do in just a few minutes. Well this is what Ella did. She decided to do her own make-up. I think that she did GREAT!
What a cutie!

Wrestling has begun!

On October 28th we had Tyson's first wrestling match. He does the folkstyle wrestling until about December. It is always fun to watch him, but it is hard to watch him lose too. He lost him first match, but afterwards he came up to me and said, "Mom that was way fun." He didn't even care that he lost. He was smiling the whole time he was wrestling too. I am glad that he loves wrestling so much. While watching him it is really hard not to yell at him along with his Dad and the coaches. Although the way that his coaches were yelling it kind of reminded me of my Dad. HAHAHA. Love ya Dad.

Baker Halloween Party.

On Monday we did Family Home Evening with the rest of the Baker's we had a Halloween party. The kids totally had a blast. It was fun watching them with their cousins, carve pumpkins, and bob for apples. I think that was the funnest to watch.
All the kids in their costumes.

Cheese!

Ella had to try and help Grandma carry her pumpkin over to the table.

She stuck her hand in once and wouldn't have anything else to do with cleaning out her pumpkin. She just kept saying,"Ewww, Gross."

Little Redneck Braxton.

Ashtyn was so cute dancing around with everyone that would dance with her.
