Ella Margaret Rodee!

Our little one has finally arrived! Ella Margaret Rodee was born on October 29th at 10:54 am. She was 7 pounds 3 ounces and 19 inches long. She has tons of dark hair and round chubby cheeks!! We just love her so much! More pictures to come! She's changed so much already!

When do we get to meet you????

Well we could meet this little one today, we could meet her tomorrow...we're just so excited!!! I have a DR's appt today and we'll find out for sure when this new little one is going to get here! We still don't have a name so we're most likely going to wait until we see her! Which is something I never thought I'd do, but for some reason, it just hasn't come to us yet! My friend Tiffany took this picture...isn't she good?

Update!!!

Hello! So we've been so busy the last few weeks! Christian had his birthday the end of September, sports, baby birthday's, and more sports!! Christian decided it would be fun to play on 4 different intramural sports teams this semester! So our weekends and week nights mostly consist of us going to watch him play! His goal was to get an Intramural Championship shirt from BYU and guess what??? They did it!!!! Their Volleyball team was so good!! They won the championship game! Christian was SO excited! He wears his shirt ALL the time!! He brought sparkling cider to the game incase they won, (cider he'd been saving since last year when they had a chance to win but they lost!) They busted it open and celebrated! It was so much fun!
Kayla, my sister plays for the BYU Rugby team and so we got ot go and watch one of her games! I swear she was made for Rugby! It is totally her sport! She LOVES it and is SO good! It's so fun to watch her play even though we really have NO clue about the rules!! It's so nice to have my sister's so close!
Christian turned 26 last month! Oh my young husband!! We had a little party at his parents with his twin brother Chad! Eden and I got him a Wii for his birthday and we love it! It's like all we do, play Mario Kart on the Wii!! Eden painted him a picture for his birthday! He loved it! Eden loves to watch her daddy play too!
Our friends little Aiya turned 1! It's so crazy that all of our babies are just growing up so fast!!! She was so cute!! She dove into her cake! It was so awesome!!! It's so nice having friends that have kids all close to the same age as Eden. They have so much fun together!
AND...I'm finally at the end of my pregnancy!!! I'm 37 weeks now and will most likely be having our new little one next week! I think I'll be getting induced next Tuesday so just pray that everything goes ok! We are SO excited to meet her! I've been pretty emotional the last few days thinking about being a mom of 2 and dividing my time, and being able to be as close to Eden! I know it's normal and that it will all work out! It's just so crazy to think that in a week we're having another little baby! WOW! So I really hate this picture but I thought I'd document what I looked like at 37 weeks!! Well wish us luck with everything!!! Hopefully soon there'll pictures of our little baby girl...still no name!!

Sunday Blessing...days late!!!

Well this sunday I decided to do Eden. It was her first time in Nursery this Sunday and it was such a happy and sad day all in one! She went right in and sat down to play play dough with the other kids and didn't even hesitate when I went to the corner of the room! Christian and I were planning on staying for Sunday School just to make sure she was ok, but she didn't even need us to stay more than 5 minutes! I had to leave because I was crying, thinking about leaving her, and I'm pregnant so give me a break! But Christian stayed for a few minutes and said she did awesome! When we went to pick her up after church, they said she did so good for her first time! I was so proud of her! I just cannot believe that my baby is in nursery! So anyways, when I got home I decided I definitely was going to do my blessing on Eden because I just love her so much and couldn't imagine my life without her!!!

Sunday Blessing!

So my sis, Brittney has yet again inspired me to start a project! She told me about scrapping a sunday blessing every week and then at the end of a year, you'll have 52 blessing to put in a scrapbook! How cool is that! And the best thing is that you don't have to start at the beginning of the year or anything. You just start when you want and do it for a year. Hopefully this is something I can stay on top of because it's only once a week!
Well this week I decided to do my sister Stefanie. We are 2 years apart and have had our fair shares of ups and down, but she is my best friend. She lives like 3 minutes away from me right now and I couldn't be happier. She LOVES Eden so much and is such a great aunt to her. She is a wonderful friend to me and I don't think I could go one day without her. I love her so much and I am SO blessed to have her in my life!

Utah fun!

Well we have been busy, busy, busy since we've been home! Christian's going to school full time AND he decided it would be fun to play 3 intramural sports AND a city football league! It's been really fun to go and watch him play! Eden's favorite are the volleyball games! She LOVES them! She cheers and runs around! It's so cute! She loves to be a cheerleader for her daddy! Well we've also been doing lots of family things! We get to go to Christian's parents every week for dinner and we have even been having family home evening! Something we can never do during the summer. It's so nice. Last night we went to have a picnic at the park and it was so much fun! Unfortunately I didn't have my camera but Eden had a blast, and so did mom and dad! Eden got to go on her first horse ride! It was so much fun! Our friends invited us to go up the canyon and have a BBQ and ride their horses. Eden loves to look at horsies in books and on TV so we were really anxious to see how she'd react to them in person, and she loved them! She wasn't scared at all! She even got on and rode for a while with her daddy! I was sad I couldn't get on but it was still so fun watching her and Christian have such a fun time! Thanks Matt and Amy for inviting us up there!! Me and Eden have been doing some fun things too! We had a Pajama party and we've been coloring ALOT and Eden did finger painting for the first time! It was so much fun! I let her get so messy! I was super proud of myself! She loved it too! I'm so glad to be back home. I get to see my sister all the time and we get to hang out with Christian's family, and most important, we've been able to spend a lot more time as a family! Christian is here for dinner almost every night and he is here when Eden wakes up in the morning! It's so great! I just love having him home!







We also had a DR's appt yesterday and got to look at our beautiful little girl! She is super healthy and is just over 4 pounds they think! While we were having the ultrasound she was sticking her tongue out at us! it was SO cute! It looks like she's gonna have big full lips like Eden! I just can't wait to see what she's going to look like! Only 6 and a half more weeks to go! I can't believe it! This pregnancy has gone by so fast! I hope these next few weeks go by fast as well! Christian and I still haven't decided on a name. It was so easy with Eden, we just knew! But we haven't had time really to think about what this new little one is going to be named! We've got it narrowed down to 2 options! What do you guys think...we're still deciding on a middle name so I'll just give you the first names...Ella Rodee, or Isolde 'issy' Rodee! What do you guys think!??
