Something is in the air...

When I was in Arizona a few weeks ago, I was talking to my grandma. She told me that there will be 8 great-grandchildren born this year. However, over this last week I found out that there will actually be 10! The Fenns are reproducing like rabbits! (Amanda made a comment that there must be something in the air. My reply: I hope I don't catch it!)

So, I started thinking about how many people I know who are pregnant right now, family & friends and I thought I'd just do a huge congratulations to everyone all at once.
  • Brooke & Travis Fenn
  • Audrey (Fenn) & Jaron Chapman
  • Jackie (Fenn) & David Hatch
  • Laura & Jared Fenn
  • Kara & Zac Fenn
  • Jenn & Tyler Fenn
  • Brenda & Michael Earl (Fenn cousin)
  • Chelsea & Dustin Fenn
  • Jenn & Kris Barlow
  • Staci & Nate Leishman
  • Courtney & Josh Heck
  • Shalynn & Jared Snow

Congratulations again to Trish & Josh, and also to Melissa & Matt Earl (Fenn cousin). I'm so excited for all of these new sweet babies!

Congratulations Travis & Brooke!

Travis called me Wednesday night and asked (in a round about way) if I was busy October 25th. I started laughing and I'm sure I screamed a little too and I asked, "Are you guys having a baby?" I could hear Brooke in the background laughing and Travis was as giddy as a new dad should be! I am so excited for them and I'm excited to have another niece or nephew. 2 new Fenn babies in one year! Wahoo!

I love cute babies!




Mackenzie Rhyan was born March 17th! My roommate Amy & I drove down to Arizona for a quick road trip and I got to see Mackenzie! She was 18 1/2 inches and weighed 7 lbs 3 oz. She is so tiny and so feminine and so adorable! I love being an aunt! (More on the roadtrip coming soon.)

So...it's been a while

I know. I'm a horrible blogger. I guess I don't get as excited as the rest of the blogging world and feel I have to do it everyday. But an occasional update would be good. My life is just SUPER boring right now. Well, it's not necessarily boring, I'd just rather not blog about it. Everyone knows what I'm talking about. Sometimes life hands you lemons and you're expected to make grapefruit juice out of it. It just doesn't make sense and seems impossible. So, instead of blogging about all of my woes, I've kept it all bottled up and left everyone out of my world for a while. But I think I'm back. I know you guys all miss me...I miss me too...

I'm really looking forward to my trip to Arizona! My roommate Amy & I are driving down for a few days. I'm almost beside myself when I think about the warm weather that awaits me! No snow!! And on top of that, I'll get to see my new niece and all of the rest of my family! And who doesn't love a good road trip? Especially when it involves taking 3 days off work? I'm excited for that.

I have a new favorite TV show. It's Oprah's "Big Give". I highly recommend it! And my new favorite movie is "Amazing Grace". The soundtrack is my new favorite CD.

Today I took a nap & read outside. I wore Capri's and a t-shirt. Okay, so it wasn't even 50 degrees, but I pretended it was 85. I got a little tan and enjoyed soaking up the sun. When the breeze picked up, I was reminded that it's still March and there is still snow on the ground (in the shady spots). Nevertheless, I enjoyed the sunshine and can't wait for more!

I guess my life isn't as boring as I indicated, but it's obviously not that exciting either. But I'll try to look for something exciting this week and try to blog about it.
