It's a........

We went to our Dr.'s appointment yesterday and got to have an ultrasound of the baby. We really like Dr. Erickson, he seems really nice and they even told us that at 28-32 weeks they will do a free 3-d ultra sound, so we are excited! Most importantly it looks like it is healthy... and we are going to have another BOY!! We are so excited and can't wait till January 9, 2010 rolls around. We are totally stumped on Names though. The only name I really like is Connor but Chad says that it is too popular. Chad likes Adonus (yes like the greek god)! needless to say we have not come up with a name we both like. So we need help, if you have any ideas on boy names let us know, and if yours is picked then you will get a prize! (My Dad suggested the prize to be the umbilical cord after it falls off, but dont worry we will come up with something not so disgusting!) Thanks for your help!

Our Arizona Mountains

On Friday night we had a spectacular thunder Storm, the sky lite up with huge lightning bolts and we heard loud claps of thunder and the rain poured down for a good hour or so. I have really liked this part of summer(the monsoon season)! On Saturday we heard it was only supposed to be 95 and cloudy(instead of 110), we thought it was a good idea to go exploring. So these are our mountains that we get to enjoy... lots of rock and dust but there are some really neat Cacti...these things are seriously like 15 feet tall!! By the way we didn't last very long out there, although it was only 95 it also very humid and not so cloudy, needless to say we got really sweaty and gross!!

I Love Visitors

My sister Heather from San Diego came to visit for the weekend! we had so much fun! Jonah loved to have a visitor, he bounced around smiling and laughing the whole time she was here, in the morning he would say Heder, Heder and go jump on the bed she was sleeping in. we got to go to go to the Splash pad and the Youth Museum and Swimming. The Favorite event was going to eat at Cafe Rio, the only one in Arizona. For all you Callifornians we heard they are opening 20 down there including San Diego. Get excited Baby!! I still haven't figured out the whole picture thing on blogging so you will have to put up with me til I get it!

A little late on the blogging band wagon

This blog is dedicated to Lyndsie Anderson and Lisa Harper who have been hassling me to get a blog for the past two years. So now that we have moved to Arizona and it has been the hottest summer on record here(several days over 118) I have decided that I have no more excuses about not having time:)!!

Chad moved to Avondale, Arizona the end of May to start a Doctorate of Physical Therapy program, which he had just been accepted the month prior. Jonah and I stayed behind to finish getting our house sold and tying up lose ends, we arrived in Arizona the beginning of July to the 118 weather. We have taken advantage of our swimming pool at the apartments and splash pads around the valley trying to keep cool.

We have made a few friends from Chad's program and from church and even a few random people that I have met at story time that we do things with every once in a while!

Chad turned 30 on July 31st. I was planning on doing a big surprise party for him while we were still living in Utah but we don't really know that many people down here so that didn't work out very well, so we just went out to dinner with a few friends. It was very exciting!!
