Another Grandchild is on the way!!

We're Pregnant!!!

Oh Happy Day!!

Well, the proverbial "Cat is out of the Bag" with the announcement from Jeff and Rachelle that they have a baby on the way. We are so excited for them and for us!!!! They found out they were pregnant on Jan. 2 when they were here in California. They told us, Chris and Emily, Cindy (Rachelle's Mom) and her brother Ryan and his wife, Cazra on the 5th at a family dinner here at our home before they left for Utah. Rachelle's Dad was in Idaho taking her sister Becca to BYU-I so they found out a few days later. We were beside ourselves with excitement but sworn to secrecy until they had their first Doctor's appointment, which was yesterday, to be sure everything is okay. So now they have blogged about how it is all going great(please check their blog for their announcement...our link is Los Hombres).

We can't believe how fast our family is growing. We had an 8 year dry spell and now....there is no stopping us. So far, including step grandchildren, by the end of this year we will have 18 grandchildren and our sweet great-grandson making 19 in all. Wow!! And to think we started last year with 9. Not many can say they doubled their number of grandchildren in 18 months. We are so amazed and thrilled. Congratulations Jeff and Rachelle!! You will join all the great parents we have in this family. We love you!!

Congratulations...another sweet grandchild on the way! It is hard to believe you also have a great grandchild. What a cutie! Yes, blogging is a lot of fun. It is such a nice way to see what's going on in the lives of others.
