Here I am again playing catch up. I don't really have a good excuse as to why I haven't update the blog in 6 MONTHS!!! So, I will just give a shortened version of what's up with us the last 6 months and hopefully be better in the future!
In May we decided instead of presents for Nate's birthday we would take a family trip to Disneyland and to visit some family in California that we don't see often. It was so fun! Nate loved it and didn't mind at all not getting other presents, he still talks about the trip and how it was the best birthday! I for sure want to do something like that again instead of gifts sometime. It was more appreciated and we have great memories from the trip.
A couple days before California I took a pregnancy test and found out that we were expecting! We had been trying for a while and had some complications. We were excited but also very nervous, the dr in Arizona put me on some medication to help the pregnancy, which made me super sick. So, when we got back to Arizona I felt awful and the weather was so so hot I thought I was going to die! I laid on the couch for weeks, couldn't take care of my kids, and just wanted to be done.
David needed to come to Utah for a few weeks for some work stuff, so we decided to all go and that way we could visit family and I could get some rest and have some help with the kids. We were here a few weeks when we decided to stay in Utah, David and his brother went back to Arizona and packed up our stuff and brought it back. We're still kind of in between things and figuring some stuff out. We're living in our condo right now until we figure out if we're selling it or renting it out. We're hoping to move to Utah County in the next couple of months.
As for the baby, I'm 8 months pregnant, due January 24th, with another boy! We're very excited to see our little guy next month and the boys are so excited to be big brothers! These pictures are random, but they are what I could find from the last few months.
David & Johnny went camping for Father & sons outing, Nate was really sad he didn't go, he set up this toy tent and camped out in there that night!
Beach fun on our California trip.
Johnny loved telling stories to Grandpa Leo!
And giving hugs to Grandma Mary! We miss them so much, wish we could see them more often!
While in California we got to attend church where my brother in law is on his mission. It was fun to see him.
Cute cousins hanging out on the 4th of July.
David officially has his bachelors! Took them a while to send his diploma, but we celebrated when they did!
Our little guy! I think he looks like Nate.
Seeing the witch at the Pumpkin Walk, Nate thought she was the coolest part.
He is FINALLY potty trained! Took FOREVER!
Ready to play in the first snow this winter!
Johnny dressed up for Halloween at preschool, he was Aniken Skywalker this year.
Nate was Cosmo the Cougar, it was a tricky costume.
Johnny & his 5 balloons for his 5th birthday!
One of his presents was rollerblades and going to the skating park. He was great at it!
Just love them in their church clothes.
They each have tiny trees to keep in their rooms for Christmas, they had so much fun decorating them.
My little elf!
They were both pretty shy with Santa this year, Nate wouldn't say a single word to him!
Silly pictures from our California trip, we went to the Legoland Aquarium, it was really cool.
Horrible picture from Disneyland, I need to find the others, you can tell I didn't feel well.
Johnny's last day of preschool in Arizona.

Holy cow! Congratulations, you Graveses! I was driving through the Sam's Club parking lot the other day and swore I saw Dave, but then I shook it off because you guys live in AZ. Apparently you ARE here! Yay!
WOW! That is a lot of changes in 6 months! Congratulations on the pregnancy, hope it is going better for you now.
