It's a Boy, Can I Hear a Woot Woot!

This week has been good. On Tuesday I decided to take all the kids to the movie The Croods, it's only $1 on Tuesdays. I normally would never take anyone under 3 to a movie voluntarily but if any of you saw the video of Piper on Facebook being left behind the other day you would know it's a bit heart breaking. She hates being left out (who doesn't)? She quite likes her TV like the rest of us, so I figured we would give it a try. Scott was kind enough to offer to come and pick her up when she had had enough. She did GREAT for an hour and then she was done! Scott came and picked her up and we finished up the movie. The kids saw the movie with Nana in 3D and didn't wear their glasses so I think they liked it better this time, although with Nana there was popcorn, candy, and Nana so probably not!

The city of Boise gives out free lunches to all kids ages 1 to 18 in parks all over Boise. Several of these locations are right by our house. I feel like a hypocrite taking my kids there because I don't really believe in these types of government programs, but on the other hand my kids love it and its FREE! (Although not really am I right)? So for now I will just be a bit of a hypocrite and enjoy our lunches at the park. I try not to go everyday although I am tempted.

I've made a friend with a fellow mom who frequents the indoor gym in the winter time and story time at the library. This last week after story time she invited us over to her house to see her new bunnies and chickens. Are you kidding me? We were all over that! My kids loved it. They have an awesome backyard with a huge garden. It gives me hope that if we end up in a big city forever that I can live in the city and have a big yard/garden. We actually ran into them again and went over twice last week. It was fun.

On Friday we had our big ultrasound. We dropped our kids off at Hart and Jory's and headed down. I was so ready to find out what we were having! I don't know how people can stand to wait. This is the first time when I felt like I had really no idea what we were having. With Corbin I felt like it was a boy but I didn't know. With my girls I knew. I knew when I was about 6 weeks pregnant with Gabby that it was a girl, and I knew before I got pregnant with Piper that it was going to be a girl. So this has been a long 5 months not knowing I tell you. I initially guessed boy but as time went on I doubted this more and more. We went ahead and did our usual bet, I went with my initial hunch and Scott said a girl knowing that he's been wrong every time and hoping that he would be wrong again. Well we were both delighted to discover it was a boy. We are really excited to have a baby boy again. I had Scott take me to a Drive-In Downtown to celebrate. He would not order any food with me. He would rather eat his own arm than feel like he was not getting a good deal. Luckily even though he won't indulge himself he will allow me to sometimes. I had a burger, shake, and fries and it was expensive and it was GOOD!

Cute!

Okay seriously, he is so cute already!

Gabby wanted to be "Super Gabby" and then of course Piper did too.

The kids had a camp out in their room. They are fake sleeping in this picture. Gabby actually just slept in her bed but Corbin slept in the tent all night.

Corbin got in bed with Scott the other night (I had escaped to the couch  by then). He was in his grill all night!

I finally broke down and bought a double stroller from my friend's yard sale. I like how this style is compact. All the kids like to play with it.

After talking with my sister-in-law Anna one day I decided that I needed to floss my kids teeth. Lets be honest sometimes I don't even bother brushing their teeth. But so far, so good. All three of them are good sports about it. I figure cavities will be painful for the kids are expensive for us. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. I hope! 

Scott got home from his Sunday meeting and caught me trying to take a nap with both girls all over me of course. I'm not sure if the picture gives Piper's elbow digging into my face justice.

The rest of the pictures are us enjoying our friends yard, pets, and garden peas.

I am not a pet person but these bunnies are so cute!
