According to our phones... 

This past year we spent our time:

EATING!

SLEEPING!

SMILES!

We also...

went to a U2 concert

I chopped all of my hair off

Celebrated Thanksgiving

Had to add this one in... good thing we had a "back up" turkey :)

Went to a BYU football game

I went to dinner with a few of my sisters

We went to the "UP" house

Celebrated a birthday at Preschool!

And we played some fabulous games of "LEGO/Geotrax"

Since I'm blogging:

I was going to wait to put this on my blog until I could figure out how to scan in our ultrasound pics... but I don't see that happening too quickly :) I wanted to "journal" that we are expecting baby bischoff #3! Right now I am almost 19 weeks along, and we are having a little girl! I am due August 3, 2012... but I am REALLY hoping that she will decide to come in July (I would even take the 30th). Also- unless something drastic changes our minds, she will be named Emery Dalene.

So excited to add a little pink into our family :) 


-----ADDED THOUGHTS---> I was thinking a little more about this post and decided I needed to add a little extra to it. ALL of us are truly excited to have a baby sister. Easton sighs and says "ok... I guess I will have to show her where the barbies are (meaning at the store" he is acting like he doesn't want to be associated with such things, but he can't hide his smile. So adorable. I honestly thought that Nixon really didn't have any idea what was going on with me being pregnant... but the other day he got a scratch on his belly and he came crying to me and said that he "got an owie on his baby". That totally melted my heart, and thought it was so cute! 
Things are starting to feel more real. I think that after you have had a couple of miscarriages, that you unintentionally disconnect yourself from the pregnancy for the first little bit. That phase is over for me now :) Last night Dan and I literally spend 4 HOURS researching into the baby carseat we would by for little Emery. FINALLY we both agreed on this one: Cybex Aton (click the link in case you're curious) It's not the cutest carseat that we found... and trust me- we found every seat available for purchase in the U.S. but I am hoping to make a cute carrier canopy (or hire out one of my many awesomely talented friends out).

Winter Blues.

I am thinking about last summer. Almost all summers are by default pretty much awesome... but I especially loved this past summer. We were temporarily living in Orem at the time, which was partly why it was so great because both Dan and I have so much family so close to Orem. We spent the WHOLE summer hanging out with family, or being outside. Hiking, running, camping... and I was super motivated to spend time to help our family to eat healthier! So we were feeling good & having lots of fun. 

Here is what our summer looked like:
