So Trevor and I just got back from Oregon, where the entire family (minus the Crocket's who were in Washington for a fly-in) went to Vale where my mother grew up. As many of you probably know, we would go up there every summer as kids. Last summer Trevor and I went up there so he could meet the cousins and my aunts on that side. Aundi and Cindy and their kids went with us. This year, Mom and Dad came as well as all my sisters (again, minus Nicki) and their husbands and kids. 10 kids! (well, actually 11, if you are observant...:) ?
So we had a lot of fun up there. Thought I'd include a few pictures to show you what we were doing...I think my favorite is this one of Kylee going off the high dive for the first time--yes, this just can't end well, can itAnd here's another favorite--Trevor and I in front of 25 acres of wheat at my Aunt Carolyn's. 
The trip had a lot of babies involved. We saw my cousin's new horse Rodeo Rose, born on mother's day to their other horse Mischief--the one who almost bucked me off last summer! And then there were three baby calfs at Aunt Carolyn's that had to be fed with a bottle. Two of them had lost their mothers to what Carolyn called "Milk Fever" whatever that is, and the other one was born with a crooked back and is VERY small, and it's mother can't feed it. SO cute. Cousin Loni had a baby pig, and baby chicks. Oh, and then there's MY baby. So yes, what a busy weekend!

Yea for Megan! Congratulations!
Awesome! And I am not talking about your trip to Oregon. How exciting! So I love your vagueness about it all. Like it's just no big deal...WHATEVER! You are just trying to get a big reaction aren't you? Anyway, so I can't do the math...what are the details? How many weeks are you? When is your due date? You are only like two and half months behind me! I hope you are not sick like I was. I am finally feeling better now that my first trimester is over. Yeah!!!
Well, I DO have a little widget on there that tell you EXACTLY how far along I am! My due date--according to the ever-correct internet--is about March 11th. When is yours? I'm so excited we'll be having babies around the same time!!
I know you have a widget but it makes more sense to me when we're talking weeks rather than days. I am January 8th. But we really want to go for the first baby of '09 and get a bunch of free stuff! So I am guessing you are about 5-6 weeks along?
Oh! Just click on where it says how many days you have, and it will show you weeks and everything else. It's really cool!
Holy cow!!! Congratulations - how very very very exciting. I bet your mom and sisters are thrilled!! So happy for you.
congratulations! I am so so so so so excited for you. I hope that you are feeling good
