Our news and why I have not posted in a while

Very excited because he got a big bed more than the idea of a new little one which I don't think he understands!

Ultrasound taken around 8 weeks

Yep we are expecting another little one in Aug 2014! I am currently 15 weeks right now! We will hopefully be finding out what we are going to have the beginning of April some time! Ashley is very excited and talks to the baby in my tummy all the time! Sorry the blog has not be updated very much lately! I wanted to also post some pictures of the kids from the past few months!

Playing super heroes and Jameson was growling at the camera!

Watching a movie this is where Ashley wanted to lay down!

My pretty little girl!

Love these pictures!

Christmas just a little late

So I am finally getting around to posting about Christmas! We had a wonderful Christmas! My parents came Christmas day and got here in time for Diner and got to spend the weekend with us which made Christmas that much better.

Dance!!!

We put Ashley in dance for the first time this year and she has had so much fun so far! I am so glad she loves dance and looks forward to going each week! She started in Sept and had her first dance recital in Dec and will have another in May. The dance recital was so much fun and reminded me of doing recitals when I was little.

These first few picture were the girls waiting in the hall for their turn to go on stage!

Here is the one video I got and I will get a recording of the whole recital later! My phone would not record the second dance which was sad! Ashley couldn't see her teacher below stage so she followed the girl next her her but hey she still did the dance! 

Where have I been?

There is Maybe 10 more new posts after this one!
I know it has been like two months since I posted last and I am sorry for all those very few that read my blog! I am taking five classes, working and have two kids to watch and for some reason have not gotten around to updating my blog! So this is going to be a lot of posts to update what we have been up to for the past two months! Our week is filled with work, school, Library visits, dance class and all the other everyday life things that happen. We stay busy but we are happy! Here are a few random pictures!

Whipple Family Pictures

Fall Time

We decided about a month ago to drive up Hobble Creek and go play in some leaves and let Ashley and Jameson see the changing fall colors for the first time in their lives! They loved it and had a lot of fun playing in the leaves!

Halloween

Halloween was a lot of fun which it always is in this house. Ashley decided that we all needed to be x-men for Halloween and stuck to that all of Oct. I however had to work the morning of Halloween and did not want to be a x-men for work so I decided to pull out the theater makeup and do something fun for work. I decided on a creepy doll! It was so much fun! I did not win the work contest which I personally think I should have since the guy who won just shaved their head! But anyways it was fun anyways. Ashley and Tyler had so much fun dressing up and loved trick or treating a lot!

Not the best picture (especially of me) but this is the family picture of the x-men!

Tyler has more pictures from Halloween on his phone but since he is at school and not home right now I might have to add more later!

Trips to Farmington/ Park with good AZ friends

Since Sept I have gotten the chance to go to Farmington 2 times! The kids and I got to go for a week in Sept and than again in Oct for the Blessing of Lisa's new little guy Logan! We miss family and always wish we were there longer and lived closer to lots of friends and family!


We also got the chance at conference time to meet at the park here in UT to see some good friends who we are really missing from AZ. Three of us have moved here to UT in the past year and two were just visiting for conference week. In AZ we had a play group that we would go to a different park every week or during the summer go swimming and it was so much fun for the kids. Ashley was very excited to see all her old friends and get to play with them again.

We miss our neighbors and dear friends!

4 years old

Ashley turned 4 years old on Sept 5 and I can not believe I have a 4 year old! She is so fun and crazy but we love her anyways! She got to start Dance the day before her birthday and she is loving it and looks forward to going every week. She does not always want to listen and do what the teacher asks but she is still loving it. She has a recital in Dec and also in May so that should be interesting.We had a great day for her birthday. She got to decide where we wanted to go for lunch and diner. She woke up  to lots of balloons all over the house. She was so excited to turn 4 and she was even more excited that my mom was here to celebrate with her for the whole week. At the end of the week the kids and I took my mom home to NM and decided to stay there for a week. While we were in NM we had a b-day party for Ashley with her cousins. We had a tea party and it was so much fun.
