It's a girl!!!!


We went in for our ultra sound last Tuesday, and we are having a girl!! It will be the first grand daughter for my parents, and the 6th for Eric's parents. We are pretty excited. We will have one of each and will be done having kids! Scotty doesn't quite understand that the baby will be a girl, but he's understanding that there's a baby in mom's tummy.

On another note, we are pretty much out of our house, and moved to Cedar. There is only a couple things left in the house, and Eric needs to fix the sprinkler system and we will be done. So we have hopefully one more trip up and back to Cedar. We'll miss our great neighborhood, and ward. So if we don't see any of you when we come back up, we love you and will miss you, and thanks for friendships and all the help!

I'm finally getting Scotty's 3 year old pics up! Better late than never!!!! The sepia pics are some I had done when another ward in our stake was dong a fund raiser for their young women to go to camp. It was $10 for the sitting fee and a 10X13, then you had to buy the others you wanted. He was such a good boy during the shoot! He loved the airplane, I think he thought it was his because we have one exactly like it!! The other pics are ones we had done at Wal-mart with Scotty and Chris together. I just put some of the ones with Scotty only in them.


This one is my absolute favorite picture!

Man, he is one good looking boy!!! I'm going to have to chase the girls away from him!!!

My favorite smile of his!!

He thought it was cool he got to hold the "bat ball" and "bay ball"
AAHH, just too cute!!

A few pics for his "Cowboy" Papa's! (That'd be Papa Duck & Papa Bob!)

Thanks for letting him borrow the hat, Chris!

My favorite smile again!

He's being goofy in these last 2 pics!

Another big life changing event

So I know it's been a while since we posted anything, but this probably won't very long.
We are moving back to Cedar City!!! We are very excited about it. It will be great for us to be so close to most of our family, we will be able to go camping in our trailer so much more, Scotty will get to have a better/closer relationship with 2 sets of grandparents and a set of great-grandparents. But on the other hand, we are sad to be moving away from my Dad and step-mom, who Scotty loves so much (and we love them too of course!), and my sister Sarah & her son Chris, Scotty & Chris have lived together since Chris was born so that will be hard for Scotty to not have him around all the time, we will be leaving our first home, and an amazing neighborhood and ward, Eric is sad to leave all the golf courses up here and Uinta Golf! We are planning to be out of our house by July 1st, and have it on the market by then. We've been busy trying to go through stuff and packing. Our neice Sh'Kell has been staying with us to help me with packing and tending, and she's been great! We love having her stay with us!
We'll be staying with Eric's parent's, until our house sells and we can buy a house in Cedar. It won't be a lot of fun staying with them, but I'm sure it will work out! Not that we don't love them, but it's going to be a big change!!! We'll still be coming back up every now and then though!
I'm about 13 weeks pregnant now, and mostly everything is going well. I've been pretty nauseous most of the day so that hasn't been fun. I've also gotten 2 migraine so far, a month apart and my Dr. has given me some stuff to take when I get them which helps, but it's still not fun at all to deal with. When we first told Scotty there was a baby in mom's tummy he looked at me funny for a second and said "Get it out!" We told him that we couldn't get it out until the baby is big and mom has a big tummy because the baby is tiny right now. We keep asking him if he's going to be a big brother and he says "No, I'm a big boy." He's not sure though if he wants a sister or brother, he tells us different every time we ask him.
And that's about all I can think of right now!

A quick update

So this is going to be a quick up date. We found out this week that I am pregnant! Yeay!! We didn't need fertility drugs this time either! And so it kind of surprised us! I am due in December, but don't really know a due date yet. I'm thinking around the 2nd week or so, but we'll see.

Nascar & a Birthday

So over the last weekend in Feb. we went to the Nascar races in Vegas. As always, it was great to get away! We took Scotty for a little bit on Friday to time trials. Then we got to go to the race on Sunday. We gave our Sat. tickets to my sister so she would watch Scotty on Sunday! All of the Irons' family goes and we all take our trailers down. It's a lot of fun.


Kyle Bush won!!! He had to get a push start from a tow truck after his burn out! Those crappy toyota's!!! Just kidding!
Somewhere in all that smoke is Kyle in his #18. It was a sweet burnout!!!

Scotty on Friday

This was Scotty's lounging spot in our trailer. Notice his movie player on the top step!


Scotty turned 3 on the 4th. We just had cake and ice cream at the house for whoever wanted to come. He was pretty excited about his tractor cake!

He's going to have his cake and eat it too! This was right after he blew out the candles!

My Dad & step-mom Pat, my nephew Georgie, Eric & Scotty, and my bro Rol & nephew Chris

Later, after everyone had left, he decided he wanted his own piece of cake.

New Church Calling

We are daughters of our Heavenly Father, who loves us, and we love Him. We will “stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things, and in all places” (Mosiah 18:9) as we strive to live the Young Women values, which are: Faith, Divine Nature, Individual Worth, Knowledge, Choice and Accountability, Good Works, Integrity, and Virtue. We believe as we come to accept and act upon these values, we will be prepared to strengthen home and family, make and keep sacred covenants, receive the ordinances of the temple, and enjoy the blessings of exaltation.

Ok, so if you're LDS then you recognize that as the Young Women's logo & Theme, at least I hope you do! I have been called to the Young Women's presidency in our ward, as secretary. I am so excited for this calling! I thought that being ward librarian with Eric was great, it was prefect for us. But Heavenly Father is pushing me out of that!! We'll see how long Eric lasts now!! We must have gotten too comfortable with it! Two of my best friends up here were in the last Presidency, and I know they will help me with anything if I need it, along with the other members of the new Presidency. One of the ladies I visit teach is the President, and she is 85 years old!! But she is perfect for this! Her counselors are two ladies I am so happy to work with too. One's husband is in the Guard, and the other has a little girl the same age as Scotty. So this is a big thing for me. I'm a little nervous, because having been converted to the Church about 5 years ago, I've never been to Young Women's, so I don't really know how everything goes and all that. But I know Heavenly Father puts us where we need to be and where He will use us to help ourselves and others, and am grateful for this!

Our first night without Scotty

Ok, so for our Valentine's Day Eric and I decided we were going to go get a couples massage. So I thought that seeing as how Scotty's going to be 3 years old in 2 weeks maybe we could start getting him used to staying at my Dad & step-mom's every now and again. But I was a little leary about having him stay there, because my Dad is going through radiation and Scotty is, to put it mildly, a handful! So we talked to them about it and they said Sure no problem. My brother Rol was there with his son, Triston who is 5 months older than Scotty, so I think that helped a lot. We dropped him off at their house just before 2:00, when our massage was. After our massage we went around to a few store, just wasting time, and got a couple things for Scotty and went back over to drop them off. Then we left again, and came home and had dinner and a night to ourselves. We played guitar hero, Mario cart, played around online, with out interruption! Finally decided it was time to go to bed, and that's where it got hard! We usually read a little before we go to bed, and Scotty is usually there in bed with us wiggling around and pointing things out to us, but he wasn't there! So...that's when I started crying, I told Eric I missed him, and he said "Well, do you want to go get him then?" We didn't, and he was fine, and so were we! He had a good time playing at their house.


The boys helping Nona make Valentine's Day cakes for me, my sister Roni, aunt K.Kay, and Grandma D. Scotty is on the left, Triston on the right. (grandma in Italian, my step-mom is Italian and since my grandparents are still alive there are 2 grandma & grandpa Vogan's, so we call her Nona)

I love this pic of Scotty!!

Decorating the cake for me!

Sleeping with cousin Triston. He woke up in the middle of the night and wanted the horsey's. They are sleeping above his head!

The boy's watching movies and eating Cheetos waiting for us to come back.
