It's a.....

Yes, we are having Baby Girl #3! Baby appears healthy and is growing right on schedule with a due date of August 16th. Aaron and I are ecstatic! Aaron loves that he is having another Daddy's Girl. Emma and Olivia have him wrapped around their finger and this little girl will too. Girls are so much fun! Emma and Olivia are so happy that they are going to have another sister to play with. Although if it was a boy I am sure we all would have been happy too.

Wow! We are going to have 3 girls that are 4 years and under. Some people may say we are crazy but we love how close Emma and Olivia are in age and I know Baby Girl #3 will fit right in. I am hoping since they will all be so close in age then they will be really close growing up.

Happy Anniversary!

Today's our 9 year Anniversary..... Here are a few random pictures of us on our wedding day:

The beginning seemed to inch by and now we're no longer newlyweds. Aaron and I have grown so much---independently and within our marriage. I know I say this ALL the time but I seriously love Aaron so much! He is so much more wonderful then I ever could have imagined. He has taught me so much about life and happiness. Things just keep getting better and better each moment I am with him and the truth is I don't think I really deserve him. He is the best Husband---and the best Father to our kids. The girls and I love him so much! The future is only going to get better and I smile with excitement!

Baby #3!

SO, I figured I would update our blog and announce that we are expecting baby #3 in August. We are very happy. People are automatically saying "you want a boy don't you?" I have to admit having a boy would be different for us---but it aggravates me when people assume they know what we want. All we hope for is a healthy baby.

Having several friends who have fertility problems it upsets me when people make comments regarding gender. Our friends would do ANYTHING to have 1 baby.....Seeing several of our friends go through fertility problems makes us realize that getting pregnant and bringing home a healthy baby is such a HUGE blessing in itself. I am so thankful for our girls. I am also so thankful to be pregnant with baby #3! All we hope for is a healthy baby and no matter what gender the baby is---it will fit perfectly into our family.

Introducing Baby Christensen #3

We will hopefully find out the gender on Monday March 14th if baby cooperates.

The Living Planet Aquarium...

On Tuesday February 8th we took the girls to The Living Planet Aquarium. We met Aaron's parents as well as Aaron's sister Mandi and her husband Chris and their son Shane there.

Emma took her camera too. Aaron and Emma took pictures of each other at the same time.

Here is a picture of Livi:

Two cute pictures of the girls:

Everyone had a lot of fun.

Having fun at Kangaroo Zoo!

A friend of mine mentioned Kangaroo Zoo, so I googled it and thought the girls would have a blast.

So on February 2nd, Aaron and I took the girls to Kangaroo Zoo. Basically, it is a bunch of different sized inflatable slides and bouncy houses. Emma was a little hesitant at first but she started having fun right away.

 Olivia on the other hand, had to watch Emma bounce and go down some slides a few times before she attempted. Here is a picture of me with Olivia. She wanted me to go down a few slides with her so I did. After a few times, I didn't need to go down the slide with her anymore because she was no longer scared to go down the slide alone.

Here are a few pictures of the girls going down the slide together. Emma helping Olivia down the slide:

 Now I KNOW this picture of Olivia is blurry, but I think it looks soooo funny and cute with her hands all flying around---so I had to put it on the blog. Olivia got up and said "FUN MOMMY."

The girls had so much fun and Emma cried when we left because she wanted to stay and play longer. We will definitely be taking the girls there again soon. They had so much fun!




This is my 3rd post for today. Read below for the other 2 posts.  Sorry---I forgot to post my Christmas pictures so they are late.

The Museum of Ancient Life.....

It has been awhile since I have been able to update our blog. On January 11th Aaron and I took the girls to The Museum of Ancient Life at Thanksgiving Point:

Emma and Olivia had so much fun at the Dino Museum. 

Christmas Day.

When we went grocery shopping a few days prior to Christmas--Emma said "don't forget the carrots for Rudolph and his friends." She is quite the creative little girl. So on Christmas Eve Emma put milk and cookies out for Santa Claus and she put carrots out for all the reindeer. Santa did enjoy his milk and cookies----and Rudolph and his friends ate all the carrots as well.

Christmas Morning

Here is a picture of the girls before they came downstairs. They were excited to see if Santa came or not.

Here is the look on Emma's face when she saw all the presents under the tree:

Here are a few picture from Christmas Day---in no particular order:

Here is a picture of Emma with her 'Thumbs Up'---with my Dads truck (Olivia didn't want to be in the picture).

Here is a picture of Olivia with her reindeer/bell antlers that my parents got her. Also the "Tinkerbell" wings Aaron's parents got her. She really does like them both----she just didn't want to smile.

Here is a picture of some of us----Aaron took the picture. Here is a picture of Aaron's sister Mandi and her husband Chris and their son Shane-----and the girls and I.

Here are the girls eating cookies that Aaron's parents bought them---in the pajamas that my parents bought them.

They were frosted white snowmen with black hats. The girls made a mess eating them. We all had a wonderful Christmas. There were a few family members that we weren't able to see for certain reasons----but we were thinking of them. For those family members that we did not get to see we hope to see you soon!
