Happy Halloween!

We had a blast this year for Halloween and it was so much fun because we were able to teach (or at least try) Ady how to go trick or treating. It seemed like every door step we were on though, that she was more interested in the pumpkins or whatever else she should not have been getting into. We had a party with a buch of Hailey’s highschool friends and all of their families. We all dressed up. Our family was the Wizard of Oz. Go check out the cool pics in our latest album.

Baby Boy Names???

Ok, I know I said we only had one boy name and if it was a boy there would be nothing to discuss, but that has changed, we now have several boy names we like (well somedays) and would love to hear some more suggestions from our friends and family. We dont want any negetive comments on names we like cuz that dosent help. But do tell us names we have that you do like or suggestions of your own.
Here is what we like this week
Madden
Sawyer
Ethan
Austin
Henry
Landon
Hunter
I am probably forgetting some but that is all i can think of from off the top of my head. So anything else?? Just leave a comment right here on the website with your suggestions, ideas, or opinions

It's a....BOY!

Yes, this monring we had our Ultrasound, and in about 10 seconds something was every obvious between the legs. So we are expecting a little Boy! We are of course very excited, and Eric is pumped to have a little boy to mold into his mischievious image. We think we are so lucky to have gotten one of each right at the beginning. Yay!

Eric's take on little Jr.

Yes Yes Yes. I was able to man up and give Hailey and Adyson a little boy. For some reason I had dreams that I would have 6 little red headed girls running around my house before I ever had a son. Well suprise suprise but what a way to start a family. Hailey and I could not have planned it any better. I am so excited. We are still thinking of names and supposedly Hailey is nervous that the little guy will be hyper and drive her crazy. Dont tell her I said this, BUT HE probably will! Well I couldn’t be happier. Ill write more later.

Gender Ultrasound This Week!

That is right, I am 16 almost 17 weeks this week and we are going to find out what we are having on Wednesday! We are so excited, we feel like once we can stop calling the baby “it”, the pregnancy seems to feel more real. Not that throwing up most mornings dosen’t feel real but we just like it better once we can start planning. Our appointment is at 9:30 am this Wednesday so expect a new website update before noon, we will write one up as soon as we get home.

In other Kandell family news, we just got home from a long weekend at our St. George house last weekend for UEA, we took my family, the Smoots, it was tons of fun, we swam and hiked and relaxed. It was nice to be able to go down there now that the house is all built and decorated, it was our first time down there just to hang out not work on it, or to bring down furniture. We look forward to many more winter weekends down there, escaping the snow.

Adyson is still as busy as always, always dancing and getting into stuff. Luckily I am starting to get enough energy back to keep up with her. And Eric is so busy at work, sometimes he coes home and falls asleep on the couch within 15 minutes of walking in the door. he has had to scramble to hire some new employees this week cuz things keep getting busier and busier. Good for him but bad for his sleep.

Well, we will write again on Wednesday hopefully with the news of our baby.

Finishing our first trimester with baby #2

We are just finishing up our first trimester with baby#2. I have been feeling a little better the last couple days, I am learning what foods to avoid just like I did with Ady’s pregnancy. We are also excited that in just a couple weeks we will be finding out the sex of our little baby. On Ocotber 26th, we have our gender ultrasound so be sure to keep checking the website for updates. Right now we kind of only like one boy name and it is Ethan Shane . But we have a couple girl names, we like Lily (mostly just eric does, i think I know too many Lily’s), we also Like Lila, Bella, Elle, and Abigail (but the pronblem with Abigail is we can’t have an ADy and an Aby, wel that is what i think, Eric disagrees) . So it may be easier for us to have a boy, we really would have not much to discuss. Feel free to email us baby name suggestions. We would love to hear ideas. Love you all!
