Hello my friends!

yes i have been gone for awhile, i know and i am sorry. really i am. it has been the craziest 3 weeks you could imagine. i will start at the top....
Standards Night- that i think went well, i really hope it impacted the kids in some way and they were able to learn something. it went really well tho. that afternoon tho, joseph called from work and was like, "do ya want to go visit your sister?" and i was like "ummm- heck yeah!" but i really didnt think it was possible, and then he was like, "how about the 20th- 27th?" and i was like "holy crow! are you serious! ok! oh wait let me call diana!" and to shorten my story, diana said sure to us inviting ourselves and i was really happy! :) so i had a week and a half to get ready to go. well, then Ike hit, which was really not bad at all for us. our power only flickered once. slightly anti-climatic..... oh well. but in the mean time joe decided to get our fast internet upgraded. (yes, i think it is rediculous, it was plenty fast before! ;) ) and well, they were supposed to come on the 10th, well, they were behind schedule and couldnt come out until monday...... then the huricanne, so then they were really behind. the thing that got us was the fact that they disconnected us on the 10th, and then left us....... for a week and a half. i am not mad about how they had to work on the huricanne recovery. just the fact that some bozo disconnected us and then left us. i really got behind on things. oh well, i then flew out to GA and spent a week and now i am home. and i will be posting a blog about GA- cuz it was soooooooooooooooo great! we loved every second of it. :) and here we are. i am now frantically trying to catch up just in time to get ready to leave for peru in 10 days for 10 days. YEAH!!! but super crazy.
Oh and on the 18th, we went and got an ultrasound done. and we found out what we were having. i had no clue, it changed form day to day. anyway- we found out we were having a.......
BOY!!!!!!!!!!! and we are so excited. the kids are excited. well- ok, jerra is, claysen i think the idea still has to grow on him...... we are still working on a name, we have an idea, but we are still thinking. and i measured a week bigger then my due date, so, i am not excited about giving birth to a big baby, i really liked my 6 pounds 8 oz. that was easy and nice, what if this one is like 8 lbs!?!?! oi. oh well. we are happy. i am kinda nervous about 2 boys. i am so girly i worry. but claysen is definately all boy and another one will only encourage him and therefore he will encourage baby, and joe is definately boy. i think i will be fine. :) i was just reading- my baby at the time of the ultrasound was weighing 14 oz. and the typical average weight was like 10 oz. oi. yikes. *gulp* oh well! :) thank heavens for a good dr and epidurals! :)
anyway. there is my update, and there will be more coming with pictures and stuff, maybe after peru, but maybe before. depends on how organized i get. :)
well- laundry calls, and i need to get dinner and FHE going..... have a fabulous day!!! :)
