Congratulations it's a...

BOY
To be honest, I'm pretty exhausted from just having one boy let alone two. But my only hope is that it will be easier because Oscar can help entertain. Also, having a boy right now is pretty perfect cause I have all the right clothes for the seasons given Oscar was born in November. All in all though I'm excited and I know this will definitely be good for Oscar. He's been getting into this selfish mode and frankly I don't really like the attitude so it's about time he got over it. With this pregnancy I am still sick so I don't plan on that passing any time soon. Also with Oscar you could tell I was pregnant and that was great actually, cause now it just looks like I've let my self go (which technically is true) but I just keep reassuring myself that I am pregnant and then I don't really care as much. I also have had one main craving and that is MEAT. I love it... can't get enough of it... want to marry it... etc. I would by packages of bacon to fry up and eat (not just a couple slices, the whole bag). Lately I've been dying for Steak. Christian has been so busy with school but one night he decided to take me out on a date so I could have a steak. We went to the most wonderful restaurant in the world and I had a salad, two baskets of bread, mashed potatoes and a 8 oz Filet Mignon that was to die for. When I took the first bite of my steak I got so emotional, tears flowed and I was the happiest person alive. Since then I have made steak twice and have more in my fridge ready to go. Well, Oscar and I will be going to St. George on Saturday and we are so excited to see everyone. Poor Christian will be staying in Missouri for three weeks after I leave to do his preceptor ship and then he'll drive to SLC were we will then stay for three more weeks. It's going to be a long and busy summer but we can't wait!

Rare footage of Captain Destructive

Oscar has this uncanny ability to always know when he is about to be photographed or video taped. Everyone back home has heard the stories of Oscar's incredible destructive capabilities but every time that we've tried to catch any of it on film he suddenly becomes as lively as a plant. And I mean a really slow moving plant, like an oak. He barely blinks. On Sunday we amazingly were able to catch some of it on film. We will be going to Utah this summer and I put this video on here not to scare the Utahns, but to warn. He'll be arriving in 6 days so I recommend getting your food storage ready as well as all your insurance claims. You never know what disasters will strike when Oscar's around.

Trip to Nauvoo

We went to Nauvoo a little while ago and our friends took some amazing pictures of Oscar! We will be going to Utah this summer and we think he's going to take some people by surprise. We're not sure if Utah is ready for this new and improved extra-mobile, extra-destructive version of Oscar.
