Oh BOY!

We had our twenty week ultrasound and found out we are having a baby BOY! We are so excited! I love getting ultrasounds and seeing our little guy moving and wiggling around. Our doctor has an amazing 4-D ultrasound machine and you can see all of our little guys adorable little features! I dont have the 4-D pictures on a disk so I will have to get them posted a little later, but we got plenty of other pictures of our little man! He is healthy and right on track for size and everything and he is such a busy baby! I felt him moving a lot earlier than I felt Peyton, and all his little movements are already so strong. During our ultrasound he was streching and kicking like crazy. It was so neat watching him on the monitor whenever he would move or kick I would watch it and feel it simultaniously. It was so amazing. We told Peyton she is going to have a baby brother and she is happy about that, but she isnt ready to commit to the whole big sister thing. Whenever we ask her if she wants to be a big sister she yells "Big sister? NO WAY!" I dont think she quite gets what is going on yet and she is such a baby lover I know she will love being a big sister! Ryan is so happy that we are going to be having a boy so he has a dirt biking, basketball, football, hunting partner! Ryan has already decided on a name and there is no changing his mind! Luckily, I love the name too! After Ryan graduated he worked for a guy who had a little boy named Beckham and Ryan has loved it ever since so... Beckham it is! Ryan doesnt want to spell it the traditonal way, but some of his ideas are a little crazy for me! If you have any cute ideas on how to spell Beckham a little differently let us know! :) We cant wait for our little baby Beckham to get here!!!

Some videos of our little man moving and stretching and wiggling around!

These last couple of weeks have been crazy! It feels like we have been going non stop! At the beginning of spring break we took Peyton to the zoo because she loves it so much! It was still a little chilly, but still so fun!

 Peyton used to be so afraid of the little petting farm they have, but this time she loved feeding the animals!

 Peyton's favorites are the monkeys, the zebra and the tigers. While she was looking at the tigers a couple of little girls ran up to see them too and Peyton stuck both of her arms out to stop them and shouted "NO! MY TIGERS!" She isn't really into the whole sharing thing quite yet! :) She loves sitting on the baby tiger.

 Since this was our last week this Spencer for two years we had lots of family time! We went out to eat at Idaho Pizza Company and then went bowling at westys!

 I love this face! She is still into giving me these super cheesy smiles, but I love them!

 This was Peyton's first time bowling and she loved it!

 She cried and pouted after every turn because she had to wait for other people to bowl.

Later in the week we went to the zoo again, and it was half price day and so nice and warm outside so it was so busy! We had a little picnic lunch out side the zoo and then met up with Eric, Angie and Dawn and all the kiddos that came along!

 These are the faces I get when I ask these two to smile! They are best buds!

 We stopped by the pond for a bit to feed the ducks and geese. Peyton loved feeding them entire slices of bread at a time.

 That night, Ryan went to play basketball like he does every week and came home with a broken ankle. He was in a lot of pain and has to be in a boot and on crutches for a little while.

Peyton was really concerned about her Daddy's hurt foot and asked over and over again if he was okay.

 This was after hours of icing and elevating his foot. It looked like he had a baseball in his ankle!

 He was a little happier the next day when he had some pain meds. He sure milked it and I had to serve him all day. :)

 Monday afternoon Ryan, Peyton and I left for Utah and we brought Zach along with us. The rest of my family was coming up the next day so on Tuesday morning we got McDonald's breakfast and went to the Hogle Zoo. This was our third time at the zoo in two weeks but Peyton still loved it!

 I love the elephants, the baby one was so cute!

 I tried to get Peyton to take pictures by all of the animal cages but she insisted that she just needed a picture by the lion drinking fountain.

 My Grandma Rigby bought Peyton this little dress with a tutu skirt and Peyton loves it! She wants to wear it everyday and night. She calls it her princess dress. When she is wearing it she put her hands on her hips and twirls around saying "princess dress, princess dress". I will admit she is so cute in it! We are going to have to go get her some more princess dresses!

 After only a week, Ryan decided that he didn't need his crutches or his boot anymore even though he promised he would stay in his boot for at least 4 weeks. This is so typical of Ryan because he never follows doctors orders or any ones actually. He always decides that he doesn't need it anymore and just kind of ignores that he has a broken bone even though his foot is black and blue and looks like it belongs on a 400 lb man, he insists that its fine.

 After the zoo we ate Ryan's most favorite place, fazolis and then headed to Temple Square. We walked around for a little bit until the rest of my family got into town. We then went to the huge distribution center they have there to get Spence a few more things that he needed. I am so jealous of how many huge distribution centers they have in Utah because ours here is basically a ten ft by ten ft box. We looked around the distribution center for a little bit and we got a couple new pictures for our walls! We then went back to temple square and went to the church history museum and a couple other places. I love temple square in the spring/summer time because it is covered in flowers! The flowers were really new so it wasn't covered yet, but it was still so pretty!

 After Peyton woke up I wanted to take a picture of her with the temple but she was tired and grumpy and didn't want her picture taken so she pouted. But it turned out to be such a funny/cute picture! It definitely shows he little personality! :)

 After Temple Square we went to the gateway mall and ate at California pizza kitchen. It took quite a few pizzas and pastas to feed this many big guys! It was so good! 

The next morning we got ready to send Spence off! We went to McDonald's breakfast and then walked around the BYU bookstore until it was time to drop him off.

It was such a weird feeling dropping him off knowing we wont see him for two years. We are so happy for him and proud that he is going, but it was still so sad to say goodbye!

Spencer is going to be such a great missionary! We are so excited to hear from him and hear all about his adventures when he gets to Thailand. We already miss him soooo much!

Update!

A few weeks ago we moved into a beautiful new townhouse. Our apartment was so small, we had no choice but to move with baby number two on the way! We love it so much! Packing and moving is really hard when you are pregnant and sick, but we made it work! Thanks to my amazing husband, who did majority of the work, we were all moved and unpacked in just two days! It is a 3 bed, 2 1/2 bath and just has so much space! All the bedrooms are upstairs as well as the laundry room, which is amazing! We have a little fenced yard which Peyton loves, and just feet behind our yard there is a huge neighborhood swimming pool, fitness center and playground! It is going to be so fun for summer! We have taken Peyton to the park a couple times and she loves it! I cant wait until it warms up so we can spend more time outside! We are soooo grateful to be in our new home!!!

Our New Home! (Pictures of the insides coming soon!)

Peyton loves the little park behind our house!

 Every time Peyton went down the slide she would throw her hands in the air and yell "GOOD JOB ME!!!" :)

Peyton was so nice to catch Daddy when he came down the slide!

On Valentines Day Grampa Douglas came over to give Peyton some Valentines presents. She got some pony's and she loves them so much!

Then we went over to Grama Douglas' house and made heart shaped pizzas! 

Such a typical/inappropriate picture of Carson and Ryan :)

Daddy helped Peyton put lots of yummy toppings on her little pizza!

Peyton and Mommy's pizzas!

Daddy's pizza!

Peyton Jo got a new teddy bear which she loves so much, candy and Dora pajamas from Mommy and Daddy.

Ryan got head to toe new dirt biking gear!

I really need to do a much needed update on Peyton, she is turning into such a funny girl and she has so much personality! She is going to be two in April, which I can barely believe! She has a huge vocabulary and you can pretty much understand anything she says now. Peyton loves singing, reading books, dancing, coloring, playing with her babies, taking baths, playing beauty shop and playing outside. Some of her favorite shows are Dora the explorer, mickey mouse club house, sponge bob, and basically any Disney movie. Lately Peyton is a different person everyday, some days she wakes up and says "hi! i baby!" and some days its "hi! i deeya! (Dora)" she is also boots (Dora's monkey), sponge bob and patrick (from sponge bob). Some days she assigns us to be one of them, and sometimes we try to tell her that we are one of them and she gets upset and puts her chin to her chest and pouts. Mostly, she only lets me be mommy and Ryan be daddy. :) When we ask Peyton how old she is she says "i baby". Peyton is a wild child, and she just goes and goes all day long. Even when we put her in her crib at night, she is almost never tired and we hear her in her room jumping in her crib for about twenty minutes until she decides to go to sleep. She is getting to be very difficult to take anywhere because she thinks every place I take her is just somewhere for her to run and explore. I took her to Ann Taylor Loft the other day and spent the whole time chasing her around the store. She ran back into the dressing rooms, got down on her stomach, stuck her head under a lady's dressing room door and said "Hi!! What doing?!" It was horribly embarrassing so we decided it was time to leave! :) Peyton is a very polite baby and says please and thank you for everything. Whenever I tell her no she always says "hmmm howbout.... and then tells me what she thinks she should be able to do. She wanted to get into the bath for the third time the other day so I told no more baths today and she thought about that for a minute and then said very sweetly "hmmm howbout.... i bath!" She can never quite take no for an answer. Peyton sure keeps our lives very interesting! We love our little girl so much!!!

My pregnancy is still going good. I am about 18 1/2 weeks now and I am passed the worst part of being sick, but definitely not feeling great yet. I am more functional now, and sometimes I even wear actual clothes, and not just sweats. Before I could barely shower once and I was at maximum effort for that week, now I am able to do a lot more and even do my hair and put makeup on. In the first few months I only made two dinners total, and just last week alone I made four, so Ryan is very please with that! Besides being sick, everything else is going great! I am very grateful that I am feeling better much sooner with this pregnancy, with Peyton I was still throwing up all day long up until about 25 weeks. I am pretty sure Peyton doesn't really know what is going on. She knows mommy has a baby in her tummy, but she thinks she has one in her tummy too. So we really have no clue how she is going to react when our new little baby gets here! We find out what we are having on April 7th and we cant wait!!!

This last weekend I went to a couple of my friends baby showers. Friday night was Kelsey's and it was so much fun. It was so fun to see her and all of the fun baby stuff she got. Her little man is going to be looking so cute! So many of my friends from high school were there and it was great to get to see them and catch up! Saturday was my friend Courtney's baby shower. She is having a little girl and is due in three weeks! I have never seen so many adorable little girl clothes! I love getting to go to baby showers and seeing old friends!

This weekend is going to be so busy and so fun.. Some of my moms family is coming into town because Spencer's farewell is this weekend! He got his mission call to Bangkok, Thailand, Thai speaking! I cant believe his farewell is already almost here and he will be gone in a couple of weeks! We went with him Friday to the temple for the first time, and then Sunday is his farewell and we are doing two different open houses for him that afternoon/night! Spencer goes into the MTC April 6th, and we are so excited to get to go to Utah with my family to see him off! He is going to be such a wonderful missionary and he is so excited to go to Thailand he can barely stand it! (Spencer's farewell is tomorrow March 20th, at 9am at the Locust Grove stake center, come if you can!!)

Spencer and the proud parents!

Temple Day!

Lots of family and friends came to support Spence on his special day!

Happy Valentines Day!

LOVE this man! <3

Happy Valentines Day Everyone!

Well.. I am a little behind on posting about Christmas, being so horribly sick night at day its been hard to get caught up! Christmas was wonderful this year. Peyton had a better idea of what was going on and she had a blast! She got so many fun things that she loves! She was one happy girl Christmas morning :)

 Daddy was Peyton's first customer at her beauty shop, she made him look beautiful :)

And of course she was spoiled by all of her grandparents, aunts and uncles!

I cant believe it is already 2011! Time is just flying by! 2010 was good to us, we have a lot of great memories to look back on. Peyton turned 1, we celebrated 2 years of marriage, we found out we will be having a second baby, and lots more, and we have a lot to look forward to in 2011! Peyton will be 2, Ryan is starting a new job, we will be moving into a house, we will have been married for 3 years, baby #2 will be here and the newest, very exciting news....

Spencer got called to the Thailand, Bangkok mission, Thai speaking! He leaves April 6th for the MTC. We are so excited for him and so proud of him! We are all planning on taking a couple weeks to go pick him up in two years and explore Thailand! Cant wait!!!
