Baby Ace!

Our sweet little man Ace Reed Huntsman was born on Tuesday March 20th 2012.

He shares a birthday with his Aunt Kelsey.

Ace was the middle name of Mark's grandpa who passed away two years ago.

Reed is the first initial of my grandpa's names (Robert Ernest Elton Duane)

I went to my appointment feeling pretty uncomforbale and having contractions. He said I was dialated to a 3 1/2. He was planing on inducing labor the next morning, but called up to the hospital to see if they had room. I didn't hear back until around 2:30 when I was getting ready to go to work. They told me to come up at 3:30. I packed up the kids and took them to grandma's house and met Mark at the hospial.

Everything got going around 4:00 and went pretty quick and smooth. He was born at 9:23pm. I was sure this one was a girl and so I was shocked to find out it was a boy. He has been such a mellow, sweet baby. We couldn't ask for anything more.

Me feeling pretty good on the drugs.

Spring

These are some of the things we did in the month or so before the new baby.

We headed to Salt Lake in March so Mark could pick up his new camera. We had dinner with uncle Jason and soon to be aunt Nicolee and our favorite place Chipotle.

Played some Kinect Sports since it wasn't quite warm enough to go outside and play sports.

Headed over to the park. I think this was the weekend right before Ace was born.

Henley's 5th Birthday

Henley turned 5 on January 8. She wanted to have a swimming party this year and we happened to know where she could have that party. The theme was Barbie which is her favorite thing lately.

All her friends having pizza and cake.

Opening presents 

I can't believe she is 5 years old, but I am so happy to be her mom. I love this little girl SO much. Happy Birthday Henley!

Christmas 2011

I am so behind on posting, I guess that's what 3 kids does to you. So I need to try to catch up.

This year the kids got to see Santa quite a few times. 

Here they are at Breakfast with Santa at Sports Academy.

                            We got to go to the Heber Railroad North Pole Express this year, and the kids loved it.
