We had a great vacation in Arkansas. Minus the part where David was sick for the first 3 days and couldn't move...Poor guy.:( It might have been the fact that we drove straight through and made it in less than 21 hours! We weren't planning on leaving until Tuesday afternoon after David got off of work, but then David got home from work on Monday and jokingly said that we should leave that night. I was on board for it. So we left by 7:30 that night and took turns driving. That could have played a factor in David getting sick... David hadn't been home in almost 2 years, so he had a lot of catching up to do with all of his old friends. I am pretty sure he ate a lot more mexican food than I did, which is crazy. I guess he does miss it!:) It was a really relaxing vacation for us too. We got to sleep in and didn't have anything we really had to do. David and Maggie loved seeing all of our family and have been asking for everyone since we have gotten home. We went at the best time of the year for Arkansas too. The leaves were changing and the weather was very pleasant. It was perfect and then we came back to Utah, where it has snowed 6 inches in the past 3 days. Oh well, what can we do about it?!

Baby 3

On the left is the body and on the right is the head. His/her left arm is next to the head and you can see the 2 eyes and a mouth!!

I had my doctor's appointment today. It went pretty well. I have only gained a pound in the past 6 weeks and I am measuring right on schedule for 15 weeks!! We did have a little bit of a scare though....the doctor was looking for the baby's heartbeat and just could not find it. I was completely freaking out inside and imagining the worst. So after trying to find the heartbeat for a couple of minutes, the doctor said that we would go and do an ultrasound just to make sure everything is okay. That was the longest 5 minutes of my life. But we got back to the ultrasound and it just turned out the baby was just very low. We saw the heart beating just perfectly and he/she was even waving to us! I am convinced it must be a girl to already be needing this much attention!:) Just one more month until we find out whether it is a boy or a girl!! I can't wait. It will be right before Thanksgiving and Black Friday, so I can buy a few things for him/her too at all the big sales!!
In other news we had a great vacation in Arkansas and a great time with Giselle and Kevin's wedding!!! I will be working on getting pictures up in the next little bit from Arkansas and the wedding. Just have to get in the mood!! Everything is going good for us. We had the first snow yesterday...very depressing. We were also without electricity on Sunday from 2:00 p.m. to about 10:00 p.m. The telephone pole right next to our backyard broke off and caught on fire. So the police, fire, and electric company were all out here. We saw them replace the whole pole and so that kept us entertained. All I can say is thank goodness for the gas stove. I was able to make spaghetti and corn and toast to feed us and Giselle and Kevin! It also helped us figure out what we need for emergency stuff. It turns out we are not prepared at all. So we will be working on that!:)

Little Baby #3



Here is baby #3!!! Isn't he/she adorable!:) She/he was moving around the whole time, but kept her back to us. Maggie was sooooo excited to see the baby. David wasn't excited until they put the gel on me and then he saw the baby pop up on the screen. It is always so exciting to see the baby for the first time on that little screen. I am 9 weeks along and already counting down until I am NOT pregnant anymore!! Less than 7 months!!! I have really good days and really, really bad days. I usually take my phinagrin by 7:00 and then go to bed. I have also found that when I do too much in a day, I will pay for it the next day. So I am going to try not to do too much in a day and take it easy. I figure all of these extra hours of sleep is ok because I will have about a year of no sleep. Something to look forward to! April 21, 2011 is the due date. I am so excited to have a baby nowhere near December. My doctor also told me that since I have had preterm labor with both of my pregnancies, starting at 16 weeks I can get weekly shots to help my go full term. Since we are out in Utah and majority of our family is in Arkansas, it would really be nice to have a better idea of the due date! Lots to think about. Anyways we are just so excited about this 3rd little baby and I can't wait to find out if it is a boy or a girl. It feels like forever since we have had a little baby around and we just can't wait to have that little angel in our house!!

Visit with the DeVauxs

Cooking time with Dee-dah

Garvin Gardens






Mid America Science Museum



All 16 of us at Larry's Pizza

So many fun times with all us DeVauxs! 11 grandkids together was a little overwhelming sometimes, but so much fun! It was so much fun to have almost all the family together! At least we had all the sisters there! David and Maggie couldn't get enough of all the family!

Visit with Torgersons!!

Aunt Geneveive, Maggie, David and Mee Mee having fun together

Maggie loved being with her Papa

We love Uncle Robert!

Puzzle time!!

After some time in the pool, all the kids came in and were starving. Meemee could not make those things fast enough to keep up with those kids! It was pretty entertaining to watch!

We had a great time with Meemee and Papa Torgerson the first week in Arkansas! Maggie and David always had someone to entertain them and play with them and I had plenty of opportunities to take naps with no kids! It was so great to see everyone after so long. Thanks so much for a great vacation!!

Number 3

Yes it's official, I am pregnant with baby number 3!!! We are so excited! I found out while I was in Lincoln, Nebraska on my way to Arkansas with the Baileys. I had taken a pregnancy with me just in case and then I woke up at 5:00 a.m. and just knew I was pregnant, so I took the test and it was positive. I couldn't even tell David until later on that night, because i was never alone to tell him. It was really fun because I was able to tell all of our family in person after taking 2 more pregnancy tests that is!!:)
The first week we were in Arkansas was great because I just wanted to eat constantly, so I got to have all of my favorite foods. Then once I hit 5 weeks, it all started going down hill. We got home last Tuesday night and it has not been too good since then. Just 2 or 3 more months until the nausea and sickness is over though...I'm sure it will fly by.
We told Maggie and David because they kept asking us what was wrong with mommy and now Maggie is constantly saying "Mommy I want to see the baby at the doctors office!" Too cute. She is so excited to see the picture of the baby in a couple of weeks! It's going to be a long 9 months!! Wish us all luck!
