So behind....

You'll have to forgive me.........
I really admire those friends of mine who keep up to date with their blogs. I've been so bad......I'm just going to blame it on pregnancy and being tired : ) Also we just cannot find our camera anywhere. I'm going crazy without it, I'm a big picture taker. You know how it is, we've just finished up unpacking and a little decorating, it must have been put in the wrong place and I'm just missing it. OR a cute little helper thought it belonged maybe in a place it doesn't.

Fall is my favorite season, I just love it and it's starting to get really pretty here. The leaves are changing, the tempature is definately changing and it's time for bundling up. Of course my heart belongs in Texas but I would absolutely love to come to Utah every fall and winter, that is if we do ending up moving back to Tex. You just don't have falls like this back home. As you can see we finally got some new family pictures taken. Not the most flattering time for me to take pictures though being 7 and a half months preg. OH well I wanted to get a professioanl pic done before "baby-sister" gets here.

Oh I almost forgot I have to mention a few cute things Ethan has done. He started saying "of course"....in the cutest way, of course. I'll have to get a video of him saying it it's too cute. I'll ask him, "Ethan do you think you can do clean up now?" and in the sweetest voice he'll say, "Of course Mama". So cute my heart just melts. He has also started to say, "Oh I see"....again you have to hear his sweet voice. "Ethan it's about time for your bath, let's get ready for bath-time," ......"oh I see". Ha ha, my mom was here for conference and she noticed him saying it, she just got a real kick out of it. I told her is that cute or what, I don't know where he gets it from. Then later on she pointed out a few times I said the same thing. I guess I didn't ever notice, except it's not nearly as cute when I say it. Ha ha, goes to show you they do just pick up on everything you say, "Of course".

I like the new blog, and I love your hair. I tried mine dark once, it just wasn't the same. Your's looks great! I seriously am sad we can't come to Utah for Christmas with everyone. We are going to have to get the kids together next spring or something. We miss you guys.

CUTE pictures...are they portrait innovations? I need to post the one that we just had taken. I love the last one of Ethan, cute vest. And I agree with everyone else's comments...nice hair, cute pics.

Nikki said...

Thanks for the comments all.....you guys are so sweet. I have great friends. I just wanted to say you know I like highlights that's my normal look but when you're preg you are limited so I told the hair-stylist (at the beauty college just cause it's a heck of a lot cheaper) to do it my natural color, same as my roots. It's slightly darker than my roots, but it's supposed to fade. Thanks to all, luv ya

Love the new look, the pictures, the blog, and little man is looking so big! Can't believe you are getting so close to little girl coming. Do you have a name yet?

The Gammons said...

i remember when you dyed your hair dark at my apartment (a long time ago) and i thought how, even though you usually do have highlights, it looks so good all brown. it just compliments your skin and you just look beautiful! ANYWAY, y'all are such a cute family! i know you are probably so so so so so tired right now, but try to call me sometime before things get even busier (the new baby girl!) we def need to catch up! plus, i don't have your number anymore...how can i stalk you without that!? lol!
luv ya!

What a beautiful family! Ethan looks so grown-up. Can't wait to see everyone, even the baby that's there somewhere in the picture.
