Guess whose coming to dinner??


Well, we've got Baby Lee #4 baking in the oven! Our family is so thrilled...especially Mia and Luke. They are already asking if they can sing songs to the baby in my tummy. It is making me a little nervous because Mia is sure asking a lot of questions about how the baby gets in there and where it comes out. ANY SUGGESTIONS?? The last time she asked me I told her "Well, honey, I just push the baby out!" I'm not quite ready to explain any details...or maybe I should to make sure she doesn't try any hanky-panky until she's married! HA! I'm 11 weeks along and had an ultrasound today. My doctor seems really nice and I get to deliver in the BRAND NEW hospital in Whitefish. Yippee! Here are a couple of little funny looking ultrasound pics...sorry they look so weird. I will post more as the baby develops. YEAH BABIES!!!!!

Future Rockstar


Careful when this dude hits the slopes...he's his Daddy's boy!

Oh, the weather outside is frightful...and that's pretty much it.

OK, OK, the weather isn't that bad anymore but the last two weeks, I've seen more snow than I ever have in my LIFE! That's not saying much since I was raised in the desert of El Paso but let's just say that I've never seen a snow storm like this in all my 10 years in Montana. It snowed and snowed and snowed some more. The plows didn't even try to keep up...they just waited until the weekend was over and we had a clear day. The pictures I'm posting don't do it justice...you just had to see it. We had over 2 feet in one storm, then the next week had another 2 feet in just a couple of days. It was hard when the kids asked me if they could play outside and I had to say no because the snow was too deep. They would have been up to their necks in it! I'm not even exaggerating! Jesse and I did take advantage of the amazing snow by taking a date night up to Big Mtn for night skiing...sweeet.
This pic was taken on my walk one day after the plows had finally come through. It was actually pretty outside and it was sooooo great to get some fresh air.
This is Jacob standing by our back door. This is no optical illusion...the snow is piled up against the back door and is as tall as Jake's shoulders! Good thing we don't use that door. Also, we have a deck off our back door that's at least 2 feet off the ground and the snow is 2 feet tall on top of that.

This is the tunnel I created while I was shoveling my front walkway and steps. Let's just say my back got an awesome workout baby!



Here is the snow piling up higher than our front deck. If you didn't know anything about our house you would just think we had a front porch that was level with the ground.


Here is the snow touching the bottom of our Remax sign...crazy, huh?




I left my heart in St George



As many of you know, we went to St George to visit the Lee's for the Christmas Holiday. IT WAS AMAZING!! Rozannah, Chris and Lorenzo were visiting and it was great to see them and crazy to see how big Lorenzo has become. He talks so well! It snowed the first couple of days we were there and there was a lovely snowfall on Christmas Eve...it was magical. (actually, I wasn't too excited about the snow as you can see in the previous post.)





The only bad thing about the holiday was the fact that I only took about 4 pictures. WHAT AN IDIOT!! I'm so upset with myself. Rozannah, will you email any that you took? The pics I took are of us and the kids hiking around the gorgeous red rocks in my in-laws backyard.
Christmas eve was spent playing games and reading the Christmas Story from the scriptures. Christmas day was so much fun for everyone. We had a delicious turkey dinner with all the yummy trimmings and of course some of Dona's scruptious pies. Thanks to the Lee's for always making us so comfortable and being sooo much fun!! We love you guys!
