Surprise!

For those of you who don't know, I am pregnant! I am 10 weeks and we could not be more excited! I went to the doctor this morning and thankfully he only heard 1heart beat. He is having me go in tomorrow for an ultrasound to confirm but we are pretty confident it is just 1! I am due right after Brady and Easton's birthday...we love October babies! I am feeling pretty good so that is always a plus! I can't wait to find out what it is!

On another note, Brady and Easton did great in their big boy beds! They slept through the night and Easton woke up at 7:15 and Brady woke up after 8:00. I am sure the napping thing will be a whole other story but we will give it a go. I am so glad they did so well!

Big Boy Beds!!

In order to get the boys beds on the truck Ryan took them apart down to toddler beds. We decided that since they were already apart we would just try to move them and see what happens.

We got their room all set up and took them up to bed. They were so excited and climbed right in. Everyone came in to give them kisses and we sang a song and had a prayer. Brady said to Ryan, "Go Dad, get out of my room!" It was so funny! I was thinking this was going to be easy so we turned off the light and the crying began. They wanted the light on. We finally got them to stop and shut the door and again, more crying. Easton was crying for Brady over and over! This happened 4 times and Ryan was ready to put the cribs back together. I convinced him to let me push their beds together and see if they did better that way. We shut the door and...silence. I thought they fell asleep right away but Ryan did have to go up and put Easton back in bed once, he was just walking around. A few minutes later my dad went up to see them and they were just laying in their beds staring at the ceiling. There were no tears and they did fall asleep. I went up there just barely to check on them and this is what I found!I am sure we are in for a long night...we will see!

Headed Home

I am sitting in my empty family room waiting for my carpet cleaner. Last night the truck was loaded and we are pretty much ready to go. I am so excited to be headed back to Utah and to be around family again but I am feeling an overwhelming amount of sadness at the same time. We have loved the time we have spent in Las Vegas and feel that we have grown so much as a family. We have made some of the best friends while here and have loved living close to Geoff and Aleena. It will be a hard day but I am excited for the next phase of life which means graduating and getting a job!!!! Pictures and more info to come when we get settled in our new home (AKA the Hill household).

Basketball, Baseball, and Fun!

We had a great weekend! We spent 4 days watching college basketball. I know I am weird but I love March Madness. I have 3 different brackets and love seeing how I do and having a reason to get into the games! Brady and Easton wanted to play with their basketballs while we watched! On Friday we decided last minute to drive to Mesquite to watch my nephew Austin play in a baseball tournament. It brought back childhood memories of spending long summer nights at the baseball park! It was a lot of fun! Ryan's mom and dad followed us home and stayed at our house Friday night on their way to Arizona. It is always fun to see them! We also were lucky enough to have Austin stay at our house all weekend. Brady and Easton were obsessed with him and constantly wanted to know where he was. It was hilarious. They walked around saying "Austin" all day long. He is so great with them! We have spent the last few days packing. The decorations are all off my walls and boxes are slowly being filled. I am feeling sad, excited, nervous, overwhelmed, and every other emotion you can feel. I am excited for my mom and sisters to get here Thursday to help!! I hate moving...let's just hope I don't go crazy! Stay tuned!

Cribs or Big Boy Beds?!?

So today I was at my exercise group and somehow it came up that Brady and Easton are still in cribs. Everyone was shocked. Am I crazy? When did you move your kids to "big boy beds?" My boys went through a stage where they would climb out every day and I considered moving them but they stopped doing it. Lately they have been climbing out every once in a while but not all the time. The other day Easton got hurt climbing out which got me thinking about making the transition but I just don't know. Part of the reason I don't want to move them is because I am scared they will stop napping and that is when I work so I really need them to take a nap. Did your kids still nap? I am wondering if when we move to Utah we should just set up their toddler beds or if that is too much change for them all at once. If you can't tell I am clueless. I am hoping someone/anyone can give me advice. Am I crazy to have my kids in cribs at 2 1/2? If you have twins or know someone who has twins and made the switch your advice would be even more appreciated!

P.S. Their cribs are from IKEA and transition into toddler beds. I know they are not the cutest thing ever but have been perfect for us and were the right price for 2!!! Someday the boys will have a really cute room with really cute beds...just not yet!
