Avery's Doll

Avery got a doll a few weeks ago in the mail from her great grandmother, Granny Roberts. It was handmade and very beautiful. Avery loves to carry it around and give it kisses. She can't wait to be a big sister.

And the winner is....

Me! I called on the radio today and won a free haircut at SportClips for Merrick! Yay! This was the second time in the past six months or so that I've won something on that radio station (107.9 the mix). Last time I won two passes to a salad restaurant called Sweet Tomatoes.

The only downside is that I have to go pick up my free haircut coupon at the radio station which is way out in the middle of Salt Lake, pretty far east out on 3300 S. Last time I went out there it took forever. Anyone going that direction that wants to help me out? Eh? Eh? :)

First post ever!

Here we are! Welcome to our blog. We're excited to share our lives with you. Avery is growing up so quickly and hopefully her hair will catch up with her. She's learning so much and is really becoming a great mimic. In church yesterday we were sustaining a lot of people for callings, etc. and Avery looked around and then started to raise her right hand along with the rest of us. She did it several times in a row and got the whole row of people behind us giggling. We never taught her that one!

Merrick is plowing ahead with his last semester of school and is still working from home. We can't wait to find a job and see where we'll end up in the next few months!

Vanessa is enjoying being a mom and has had a remarkably easy pregnancy so far. 14 weeks down, 26 to go! We think we'll find out the gender of our little bundle of joy around November 1st.

More pictures and fun to come!
