BABY GIRL!!!!!!

The Scott Family five will soon be the Scott Family six.  These are the 3D images of our 20 week old little girl!  We are so excited to have a new bundle of joy in our house!!  I just keep thinking, are we old enough to have 4 kids?  I don't think so.  Ah well.  Our due date is March 5, 2013.  We are feeling very blessed and thankful to Heavenly Father that this baby is healthy and things are progressing well.  

Ok.. we haven't vanished... we've just been busy, so I thought a little recap from the last 6 months (or maybe more) would be in order. Here goes: --Josh turned 30 and went skydiving for his birthday! Go Daddy! --Josh decided he wanted to finish his Bachelor's Degree at BYU-I and was readmitted --Josh got a job at Madison Memorial Hospital in Rexburg and so we moved... again... --Now we live in Idaho and Josh starts school in January --We went to Disneyland (thanks Grandma and Grandpa!) --I decided to home school and we love it! --Elizabeth turned 6 (how did that happen? Time flies by too fast!) --We've been exploring Idaho and finding some pretty fun things --Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and then Christmas and New Years... I wonder what next year will bring us?

Student of the Month

It was with much pride and back-slapping that our Elizabeth was named the "Student of the Month" in her Kindergarten class. She is a high achiever, a good friend and regularly stays on task. We are so proud of you Lizzy!

Elizabeth's First Lost Tooth

Well, she finally did it. Elizabeth finally allowed Mom, not Dad, to pull out her loose tooth. Our oldest child has a hole in her head.

Dish Duty

We have made a fantastic discovery at our house. Elizabeth and Rachel are now in charge of after-dinner dishes! What a relief it is to be able to watch these beautiful girls work together and accomplish something. And yes, they often require parental encouragement but they are in charge.

Wallace Falls

Janine went shopping with her sister, so Yann and a friend of mine and our kids went for a hike to Wallace Falls. This is break and snack time for all hikers. Nice of them to put a bench for us to sit on.



During the hike, there were lots of run-of streams that eventually made it to the river. There was a bridge that crossed over the river with some rapids/falls that we thought were cool looking.



Lizzy was a trooper and carried her backpack the entire hike.



This picture just helps illustrate how short Jorgan is and I wanted to show his momma how high on the railing that I put Jorgan on. He loved being able to see the water rushing down.



This is Wallace Falls. The trail keeps going to the top of the falls but the kids were getting tired so we decided that we all had a good time and started our journey back.



On the way back, Jorgan started smelling this tree. I don't think that it smelled interesting but he sniffed the tree a few times before I could coax him to move on. I just thought that it was cute.

Tea Party

Our kids wanted to have a tea party. We invited one friend for each girl and enjoyed some hot cocoa and cakes. Being of the LDS religion, we don't drink tea but hot cocoa works wonderfully. The girls and their friends had a wonderful time. They were so cute all dressed up for their party. I loved those outfits.
