20 week appointment

We had our 20 week appointment last week and are happy to confirm that Layton is still a boy! He made it pretty clear what he was. He was wiggling all over the place and always found a way to show us his rear end no matter what angle we were looking from! The nurse was laughing telling us we better get ready because he is going to be a very active child! It was really neat to be able to see his stomach, heart, lungs, brain... they pretty much show us everything. Of course we can't tell anything, but from what see said, he looks pretty healthy. Our Dr. was out of town and so he will review everything once he is back and let us know if there is anything to be concerned about. I'm pretty sure he is healthy as a horse! Below is a 3D picture of Layton's face. We have 3 photos like this one and also a video of the ultrasound. It is neat to already see some of his features. Kendall and I have decided that he mostly looks like his Dad. He has my round nose and big lips and the rest is all Kendall! Kendall just says, "he's cute, of course he looks like me"! I'm just happy to see that he has all of his fingers and all of this toes! And best of all... I'm halfway there!!! YEAH!

Hugh and Haven visit

My brother Brock, his wife Rachael and their oldest son Cordon went on a river rafting trip from Sunday to Friday. My mother and I picked up their two year old twins last Saturday to watch them for the week. I had Wednesday and Thursday off work so I had the twins those 2 days. Well Kendall and Butch went with his dad, brothers and nephew backpacking on Wednesday until Saturday, leaving me and Roxi home alone. Despite Haven peeing on me and Hugh peeing all over my floor, TWICE it was a lot of fun! On Thursday my Aunt Linda took my Grandpa Findlay to his cancer treatment and while waiting for him she stopped by with lunch for the twins and I. After lunch we packed the kids in the car and headed over to see my Grandpa. He seemed pretty excited to see the twins. He even took them for a ride back to the car on his walker. Hugh doesn't look too happy in this picture but it is only because the sun was in his eyes. They loved the ride on the walker and of course started crying when we had to take them off and put them back in the car. It was a long week with Kendall gone, but I am sure glad I had the twins to help with the time. They were so fun to have!
