I'm an Aunt! (Again)



My little sister, Cara just had her first baby, a boy named Sawyer John. He sure is a cutie, but what else would you expect from his genepool? He was born in the same hospital Ethan was born in, in Orem, UT. Wish I could have been there!

Robyn's Favorite Chair



Robyn loves to climb pretty much anywhere, but she especially loves this little rocking chair. It always makes me nervous, because it's moving the whole time she's climbing into it, but she has fantastic balance, (those are Hunt genes). :)

Camping at Kelly Park




We went camping this weekend at Kelly Park. It's pretty close to home, which was nice. We met some friends of ours from our ward there, Brother and Sister Morgan. Dave works with Brother Morgan. (The camper is theirs, you know WE weren't traveling in something that swanky) We had a lot of fun. Ethan and I went swimming at the springs on Saturday, (mercifully we didn't see any gators) and we did a little hiking, (mostly to and from the springs and the playground). It was beautiful weather and cooled down a bit at night. We enjoyed the company and just relaxing. Robyn was very good, but grew tired of being locked up in her stroller for so much time, (whenever I let her down she'd eat fistfulls of dirt). She slept great in the tent though, since we brought the pack n' play and even napped for us. Hopefully we'll go camping again soon.

Husband Tag!


This is the first time I've done one of these new fangled "tag" thingys on here, but I got it from Nat and it was a good one, so here goes!


1. Where did you meet? Volleyball night at Mikaela's old singles ward, (no, I wasn't there to play, just to hang out with my brother, Sean and check out the cute guys)

2. How long did you date before you got married? Just over a year.

3. How long have you been married? 7 & 1/2 years, I can hardly believe it.

4. What does he do that surprises you? He'll watch old fashioned chick flicks with me if I ask nicely, (probably knows it's a good way for him to get "lucky")

5.What is your favorite feature of his? His pretty blue eyes, his sense of humor, his strong arms.
6. What is your favorite quality of his? He always does whatever it takes to take care of his family, he has a strong testimony, he is a great daddy who lets his kids crawl all over him and he never lets me stay mad at him, (I sometimes hate that, too).

7. Does he have a nickname for you? He usually calls me Puddin' or Puddin' Pop. :)

8. What is his favorite color? silver

9. What is his favorite food? He really likes sushi and his favorite restaurant is The Melting Pot, (really yummy fondue) but he also loves a good steak and seafood of all varieties.

11. What is his favorite sport? UFC, (he likes to try out new moves on me, but I always win because, since I'm a girl I'm allowed to bite and pull hair and go for the "restricted" areas if I have to)

12. When and where was your first kiss? In his old basement room at the Provo house he rented with a bunch of Islanders. He had just eaten a chocolate covered macadamia nut and I had politely declined, because I knew we were about to kiss.

13. What is your favorite thing to do as a couple? We love to watch movies, I know it's boring, but it takes so long to get through a movie when you have a bunch of kids running around, that when you actually do, it makes it even more worthwhile.

14. Do you have any children? 3 little monkeys and one more on the way.

15. Does he have a hidden talent? He's good at just about everything he tries. He once made a really nice table with some hardwood I think he found at a dump. I'm also told he plays the juice harp really well, but have yet to see him do that.

16. How old is he? 34 and getting older and older as we speak :)
17. Who said "I love you" first? He said it like, a month after we met. :)

19.Do you think he will read this? Most likely.


I hereby tag everyone who reads this!

Brilliant Baby Walking

Robyn has been walking for a couple of weeks now. It is now her main form of transportation, (as opposed to crawling). She still falls down a bit, but is undeterred and never fails to "get back on the horse" so to speak. She is 11 months and still changes and grows every day. I feel so lucky and blessed to have my amazing children and to have another one on the way. I hope I can grow and learn to be a better mom so I can begin to deserve them!

Feeling a Little Pregnant

Other than the missed period and the 2 posative pregnancy tests, I haven't had many symptoms. I've been super tired and had to pee a bit more than normal, but that could easily be explained away to being really thirsty, hence drinking a lot, and the fact that I have 3 very active kids who keep me on my feet all day. I was actually seriously considering taking another pregnancy test, just to be certain, (but I didn't want to waste another one). Anyway, last night and all day today I've been feeling a little queasy, which is usually the extent of my morning sickness, (fingers crossed) so I guess I'm still pregnant. I have my first apointment with the world's greatest midwife, Michelle at the end of this month. I'll keep you all updated!
