So our baby has a bum...

We went to find out what if our baby is a boy or girl and all we found out is this baby has a nice bum. I was massively disappointed, however, I am almost certain we are having another girl. I could just tell that it was a girl bum. :) So I am going back in a couple of weeks to see if we can find out for sure.

Addie and I also have been going to the YMCA since our old gym shut down, but we have never capitalized on there swimming pool. The past two weeks we have been going (they have open swim on Tuesdays and Thursdays) and it has been a blast. We are the only ones in the pool. The lifeguard keeps telling me to sign her up for the mommy and me swim class, but I think I will just keep going twice a week and wait until she's a little older to do swim lessons. She loves the water and is brave enough to put her whole face under.

One more thing.....

For those of you who know Heather Murray she is getting married in June. I am planning a bridal shower, however, I could use some helps on games, themes etc... Has anyone gone to a really cool bridal shower or played some fun games? Any and all ideas are welcome!!

You know you are in Missoula when...

Here's the story:



Addie and I were finished shopping at a grocery store called The Good Food Store (Justin hates it there because it is filled with hippies). We were exiting the premises when Addie spotted that there were shopping carts with cars attached to them. Being tired and wanting it her way she decided to throw a fit all the way back to the car insisting that she ride in one of their cars. After I strapped in my screaming child into her car seat, some random lady walks up to me gives me a hug and says hang in there mom. She proceeds to tell me that she was praying to Jesus that I would win this fit with my child. She continues to dote on how cute Addie is ask if we were Irish and finally introduced herself. I don't know where else someone would hug a random stranger. It's all about free love here.




Last weekend we got to take Addie to Lolo's school carnival. She enjoyed all the kids and the games. She wanted nothing to do with cotton candy and then we waited in line for a half an hour for an animal balloon which lasted the walk home. We also went Missoula's only indoor water park. Our friends in married student housing invited us to come to their social gathering so it was free. For Addison it was heaven. She got to see their little girl Anali (Addie calls here Anna) and play in the water. The whole car ride over it was "swim swim Anna Anna".

She really loved to just lie on her back.







We also got to go to Bozeman for General Conference. It was great to see Justin's family again, however the night we had everyone sleeping over Addie wakes up throwing up and having exciting diapers. Her poor stomach has always been strange. She did have some ice cream and I think that's what set it off. So we are cutting out a lot of her dairy. Addie with cousin Sophie
