McCombs Family's Newest Edition

Today my brother Joel and his wife Amber had their second little boy. He weighed in at 7lbs 15oz and was 19" long. They named him Ethan and are still working out his middle name. He is so sweet and such a beautiful little boy. Noah was so sweet while I was holding Ethan. He came up and sat on my lap and gave Ethan a little wave and just set his little hand on his arm. It was so sweet, Chris decided to take a picture.

Funny Story

Hyrum has been telling me that he wants a little sister for a while now. I keep telling him that if I get pregnant that I could have another boy. That we don't get to choose what we have. He doesn't quick understand why we can't have a girl if that's what we want. So earlier today when I was picking up a new little outfit for baby Ethan Hyrum turns to me and says, "Mom, why aren't you having another baby?"

I said, "Do you want me to have another baby?"

Hyrum, "Yes, I want you to have a baby girl."

Me, "Well sweety daddy and I will see what we can do about that, okay."

Hyrum, " Okay, but make sure it's a girl."

I didn't know what else to say, I just had to laugh at how presistant he is about us having a little girl. Of course Chris and I would love to have a little girl. If only we knew that's what we would have. We know we are not done yet, but don't plan to start trying for a little while. I'll be sure to let everyone know once there is any news to tell! :-)

Project play room!

Saturday was a busy day. With the weather finally nice Chris and I decided we should finally get some work done around the house. Chris worked in the yard with the kids and I finally got to paint their playroom. Chris and the boys picked the color, Pearl Blue. I did the painting. What a big difference it made. It really brightens up the room and the boys love it. I thought I would show off the new look, what do you all think? I was also able to finally put up the sign I got from Uppercase Living! Don't you just love it!!

New little Kittens

My little sister's cat had a litter last Thursday night. Chris, the boys and I went over there on Friday to see the new little kittens. They were so cute. Although Noah was more interested in Uncle Adam's snake. Gross!!

Music

I thought I'd change the music again. I love music, love listening to it, singing along with it and dancing to it. I put together some of my favorite classics. I hope you all enjoy them as much as I do!

Going to the Park

We went to Liberty Lake Pavillion park last week with my sisters and Tiffani. The kids had a great time playing outside. It was still pretty cold though, with the wind blowing on us. Of course it didn't seem to bother the kids at all. At one point they all ran up the hill and were playing in a couple of trees. They were pretending like the tree was their fort and anyone coming up the hill was the enemy. They started to through pine cone granades down the hill at them. Of course we had to put an end to that. It was pretty entertaining. It was just so nice to be outside. Next time I go I'll be sure to let everyone know!
