Big kid NOW...

Well, I guess she couldn't stay my baby forever. Abigale spent her first night in a toddler bed tonight. I shed a couple tears. She is still so little (under 20 lbs) so I just don't see her doing big girl things. Spencer said it would be better to transition her now so that when baby number two comes Abby won't be jealous that the baby is taking her bed. It makes sense, but I am still sad. Maybe it's just the hormones of being pregnant, I don't know!

20 Week Ultrasound

Well, I don't know why I was so nervous this morning but I kept having wierd dreams that the doctor found another baby on the ultrasound and that it was a boy. CRAZY! We already had one ultrasound done at 16 weeks and know that there is only one baby and it's a girl, but my dream was so real!! Anyway, we got back from the doctor and there is still only one baby in my belly and she is certainly a girl. We are so exctied to have another addition to our family on the way. Abigale loves babies so we are hoping that she will be a great big sister. So far all of Spencer's friends from highschool have all had girls. So we will have lots of friends for our little girls.

Family Time

This is the whole Nielson Clan except Jake, who is on a mission. We had so much fun with our family. I am very grateful to be able to spend time with them. Starting in August AJ and his family, Natalie and her family, and my family will all be in Utah so we are excited to have all of the grandkids together again.

Here is my little cutie Abby outside the condo before dinner

Sea World Photos

This is a pic of the beginning of our adventure at Sea World. Aren't they so cute?! Here are some pictures of Abigale on rides with her daddy, she didn't like them right at first, but as they kept going she started to have fun.

Here are some pictures of the Shamu show. She really liked watching the whales alot!

Belmont Park

This is at Belmont Park in California. It was Tuesday night family night so everything was half off. Abigale loved the boat ride and she wasn't too happy on the carousel at first but warmed up to it after the first few rounds.

Beach FUN

Abigale wasn't too keen on the dry sand at first but she sure didn't mind the water. She got used to the dry sand the second day at the beach..and then every day following that we had to reintroduce her to it. She loved the beach! We had to be careful with her though because she would just run right into the waves when we weren't looking.

Vegas Pictures

Here are some photos of Abigale and Spencer in a pool in Vegas.

New NEWS!!!

Well kids, it's been let out of the bag. We are expecting a baby girl on December 2nd. We are excited to join the list of friends that are also awaiting a new one into their families.

Back HOME!

We are back home from Cali. It was way fun. Our camara is broken so we will have to get the pictures on a disc before we can post them. We drove straight home from cali to utah and let me tell you...never again!! Well, not if I can help it. Abby did really well in the car though, she ended up sleeping three times so that helped out a bunch. We are very happy to have had the oppertunity to hang out with my family for a whole week, but also very happy to be back home! Hope all is well with everyone.

California FUN!

We are finally in Cali! We spent the weekend in Vegas with our friends Jeff and Cora Johnson and their little sweetie Jaydee. It was so much fun. We have been in Cali since Sunday afternoon and have spent everyday so far at the beach! Abigale is just now getting used to the sand! She loves the water though. We have to keep a close eye on her cause she just runs straight in! It has been really fun being around our family and having all of the Nielson grandkids together again. We will post some pics when we get home!! Hope everyone is doing well!
