Too bad my boyfriend will break up this proposal! Trevor is just the sweetest and tender little guy around. He still thinks we'll marry and if asked he will say he's going to marry me with the biggest shy little grin that continues to steal my heart.

The Proposal
Once again, my heart has been stolen. The other day the kids were playing and figuring out who was marrying who. They came to the conclusion that Shane and Sadie would some day marry and Trevor and Lucy would some day marry. When Trevor heard the news he objected, "No, I'm not, I'm marrying MOM!!" Sadie broke in and told Trevor, "You can't marry your mom... she already has a BOYFRIEND!"

Family of 9.5
We have added a few to our house, five to be exact. Now we live with 9.5 people, 1 dog, 2 turtles, and 2 hamsters. You'd think we'd all be going crazy but guess what? We aren't! We are so thrilled to have my sister, Lanae, and her family so close a little bit more crazy doesn't matter. Chris got a new job and they were moved within a week from Texas! They will be here until they find a home which MUST be close by. I wanted a real family picture but this will have to do. My family with our new sister wife! It's wonderful. I come home from school and the floor is mopped, dished done (which we run the dish washer twice daily), and sometimes something baking in the oven or lunch made! Really, it is quiet nice. We are both able to go on dates with our husbands, get hair cuts, and run to the store kidless without any stress. It's working out perfectly!
Like most little girls, they have won over Damon's heart. He's learning about girl drama, Barbies, and even tutus! Lucy and Trevor were suppose to be getting ready for bed but instead they found their way into Damon's arms watching TV. They all loved it.
It is a little more loud, the washing machine runs constantly, and it seems someone goes to the store daily! However, I love seeing all the kids play together. My boys "helping" with Daphne. Shane likes to watch Lanae feed her. The 4 big kids running around and playing together. All the giggles bring me so much joy!
After only a few days together we were already accused of polygamy. At Chuck E. Cheese, we were starred at and I thought it was because our kids were so cute and maybe being a little too silly! Instead Damon translated the Spanish and they were talking about that man with his 2 wives!!!
Sadie comes to school each morning with Shane and I while Trevor stays home with Aunt Lanae. Sadie and Shane are in the same class and sit at the same table. I love being in there watching them!
Until the perfect house comes along we will be our fun and crazy family of 9.5 enjoying each other and FINALLY having family living in town!

Vacation for Liberty
The time has come to get rid of our trusty old dog, Liberty. Allergies came with this pregnancy and my patience for Liberty is gone. She has always been an inside dog and because of my itchy body and eyes she has been banished to the great outdoors. She has not been thrilled about this so we decided to find her a new home and she couldn't be happier. 
The boys know that Liberty went on "vacation" to Grandma and Grandpa Stewie's house. It couldn't be more perfect. The boys can still see her and love on her and my parents can CONTINUE to take care of their daughter's animals! In the past it has been my sisters childhood animals but I guess we'll just keep the tradition going with Liberty!
The boys haven't said much about her which I'm surprised. Before she left I had to get a few pictures of Liberty while she was still our family dog!
I do wonder what I will do without a dog once the new baby starts eating food. When he tosses food onto the floor Liberty won't be around to happily clean up his mess.
Thanks mom and dad for keeping Liberty in the family. I know she is enjoying the California sun and the company of the two of you!

snow much fun!
Christmas came and went and Trevor never got his wish for snowso we decided we better make a trip to the mountains for snow. This week-end Damon asked the boys if they wanted to go to the snow and they both screamed YES! I on the other hand, remember all the other years we take the boys with all the prep work to last MAYBE 10 minutes in the cold stuff, but this year turned out to be different!
Trevor liked the idea of snow and getting all "cozy" to go play. He couldn't wait to sled down the hill but soon found he hated it! Look at his poor little face. Later I pushed him down a small little slope and he loved that.
Shane loved every second of exploring and playing. He ran up the hill to sled down so many times I lost track. Me, I just had to watch. Being pregnant and all I missed out on all the sledding fun!
This is the first year Shane has loved the snow 100%. Begging to stay just a little longer and playing until he was tired.
My sweet boys.
Trevor liking the hill better with dad!
This is where I stood most most of the time. I was making sure the boys didn't sled right into the tree! Snow angels were made, snowballs thrown, and sleds ridden all afternoon long.
After awhile Mr. T was done. Smiles were few and he was cold! I was happy to take him back to the car and get warm again too.
But Shane, he just kept playing and playing until his little frozen legs couldn't take him up the hill anymore.

The Master and Lovey
Truth was told by Trevor a few days ago and it melted my heart!
Trevor: Dad is the Master.
Me: Oh really.
Trevor: Yeah, Dad told me he's the Master.
Me: If Dad is the Master what I am?
Trevor thought for second and then quickly grabbed my hand.
Trevor: You are my lovey.
I would take being Trevor's Lovey any day over Master. Besides, I never told him to say it either unlike his Dad calling himself the Master! For the last few days he will take my hand and call me his Lovey and each time my heart melts.

Our Little Peanut
Patience is something I lack when it comes to surprises. So when it comes to finding out the gender of our babies I can hardly wait! This being our last little one I couldn't wait and we didn't! With the boys being off in sunny California on vacation from Mom and Dad Damon and I decided to make an appointment with an ultrasound studio to find out what this little peanut was and clear as day....
Yep, there is no mistake we will have one more little guy running around our house! Some may remember my first ultrasound with Shane. Tears poured out when they said he was a boy and not a girl. I was devastated thinking of all the nasty boy things that would consume my life! Six years later I hear the same 3 words, "it's a boy" and I cry again, but this time tears of joy! I am thrilled! Another little boy to hold my hand and love me always. We'll have more forts, adventures, cars, and dirt. Best of all 3 brothers running around and having fun together!
He is perfect in every way. There was something so magical when we found out this time. It was very spur of the moment and just Damon and I. The ultrasound tech was so kind and lets us stare at our little guy as long as we wanted. Damon and I smiled and laughed for days just thinking about our newest little baby.
Like all my boys he is measuring big. At 12 weeks is was 3 days bigger then he should just like Shane always was at the beginning. The only problem, I may have cheated 3-4 days when I told the doctor the last day of my cycle so I could pick the perfect due day! If I hadn't he'd be measuring a week big, YIKES! We cannot wait for June 14th to come so we can hold this little guy.
Another boy and we couldn't be happier. Don't get me wrong, I would have liked a little girl to dress up and play barbies. Then I think of the tears and drama girls bring to a house and quickly realized I am enough drama for any house! I will always be the princess of the house. It makes me smile to think one day I will have three little boys in my life to love and cherish me as I am now blessed with three boys whom I will forever love and cherish!
It's a boy!

2 months in a nutshell!
Life is still going on at the Young house even though I have not been feeling like a normal person or up to blogging. Instead I have spent most nights hugging my toilet and wondering why I thought being pregnant again would be different this time and fun. HA! We celebrated Halloween and loved our weeks of parties. This was the start of my sickness. My little cowboy and Indian wanted a boys only party so friends were invited and fun was had by all. Grandma and Grandpa Stewie came for Halloween and we all had a blast. 
Candy was not in shortage and me being soooooo sick the next week and Damon in Guatemala I think the boys took advantage and ate most of it!
Candy was not in shortage and me being soooooo sick the next week and Damon in Guatemala I think the boys took advantage and ate most of it! For Damon's birthday we were able to sneak away to Zion. Zofran was helping and life was starting to feel more normal again. We had a great time being together exploring and having a few days to ourselves.
We celebrated Damon's 32 birthday with friends. Shane was happy for a "party" and I was happy I didn't have to cook!
Thanksgiving was quiet with just us yet I cooked enough food for an army. For some reason I cannot make smaller sized side dishes! Right as we sat down to eat Damon's pager went off and he almost had to leave for work. I was so frustrated but then he was able to stay because someone else took the call. Yeah!
December was full of candy, decorating, food, and fun. Damon and I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniverary. Grandma and Grandpa Stewie do the 12 Days of Christmas for the boys and they love opening presents. They love chocolate from the Advent Calendar each morning. We picked out a beautiful tree and the boys loved seeing their ornaments from when they were babies. I kept wondering what I'll be able to pick out next year for the new baby. Grandma and Grandpa Stewie came for Christmas and then we went to Ventura for a few days to celebrate with the Young.
Life has been busy, but good. I am starting to feel human again. I still take Mommy crack AKA Zofran to help me feel better and it has slown down the barfing from 10 times a day, to 5 times a day, to 2-3 times a day, to 1 time a day, to every few days and now once a week! I'm thrilled and we can even call it my Christmas miracle.
So now that the baby is being nicer to it's mommy expect more updates and happier days.
