Sounds like fun, we're in. : )
Here's some semi recent pictures of our family at my myspace page www.myspace.com/jenafurh
it's important not to forget the h , bad page.
Anyway we're doing good here. At the moment, Andrew's telling us he's brother bear, that I'm sister bear, and Jacob is ""Too Tall"". (Andrew's into the Bernstein bear books, but most of all pretending to be someone else almost always.)
Michael is working on making the family room compatible for his home made movie projector. Which has turned out very cool.

I have this idea... what do you think?

So, I have not the time nor the inclination right now to become an avid blogger- but it has been fun to share with you in this way. So... the idea that I have is to invite you to become partner bloggers with me!! What do you think? A family journal of sorts, a way of communicating the little and seemingly unimportant details of our lives (or the grand and glorious) with each other. I will admit that I have never been what I'd like to be as far as a letter writer (it's the sending part that usually gets me), and though I do like to chat on the phone from time to time- a picture is said to be worth a thousand words. I find this blog quite painless when I am around somewhere with internet access. It is fun to ramble on the keyboard and I think it would be even funner still to be able to read other's rambles and comment on them. So, what do you think?

Happy Halloween!

Here's a new experience for us- Trick or Treaters! I have never heard our doorbell ring so many times! Having lived out of town (both of us) I don't think we are really used to giving candy out to strangers. Which reminds me of a quote, "There are no strangers here- only friends we haven't met". We went to two ward parties dressed as a Gypsy and a punk. You can guess who was who. Dressing up and pumkins are the only things that I like about Halloween and we didn't even get a pumkin this year. Alas, no jack'o'lanterns. I did discover a brownie recipe that when tweaked Mark says is even better than the mix brownies. For him, that's saying a lot. Which leads me to my next thought. When we make treats it's always better to give away just about all of them. They taste better all around. Happy Halloween!

The freebean on Oct 29th

He is especially cute if you know what to look for. The arms and legs, the head, the fluttering heart. New due date is June 1st. It sounds like a very pleasant time to have a baby. This doctor's visit was so much more pleasant than the last. I even didn't mind my flu shot. I am still exhausted and only occasionally nauseas without the throwing up. Doctor say that both she and I are healthy and normal. Always nice to hear. I keep calling our bean baby he and she so that I do not refer to as "it" or something similar. Cause even though I don't know her gender I know he's not an it.

I'm Pregnant!

I guess the title says it all. I think that I have always envisioned something grand and spectacular about being pregnant. I now just feel the symptoms of that time of the month that just isn't coming with weird exhaustion that I have been attributing to teaching early morning seminary. I get really hungry and then when I eat I barely take a couple of bites and feel full as full can be. At least telling people and their hurrahs will comfort me. Oh, we are not telling anyone (I can't imagine they don't already know) so this unread blog is the only one who gets to hear about it. My tummy is puchy. My skin has a lot of acne. My girls are sore and can I say bigger? The tests sunday night said positive. I can't figure how far along I am- all the web sites are different. 7 weeks? Fun stuff, huh? I am very excited and feel truely blessed to have this miracle in my life. What a nice general conference!
