More Trucks and Balls, or Bows and Dolls?

One of the most frequently asked questions these days is "Are you hoping for a boy or a girl?" This pregnancy has been interesting in the way that it has gone faster and I haven't thought about it as much because I have a sweet little guy who keeps me distracted.
But here is what I have been thinking: it would be nice to have a boy next for a few reasons. First of all, we already have all the boy clothes, blue blankets, etc. so we wouldn't have to buy or prepare much for a new baby if it was a boy. The main reason though is so Christopher could have a little friend to rough-house with and play sports with (although I do get nervous when I hear stories of the 5 older Waldron boys growing up together!) We're hoping to have a few more anyway so it would be nice to have 2 boys close together.
However, I have found myself at times hoping it is a girl. Of course a mom wants to be able to have a little girl to dress up and play with, plus it's fun to think about later years playing with dolls, cooking together, having girl talks, etc. (but I'll leaving the shopping fun to her aunts- haha).
So as I've been thinking about it, I've tried to imagine what this next little baby will bring. Here are some pictures of Chris and me to give you an idea of how I've been picturing the possibilities:

This next picture always makes me laugh- I think it's so dang cute!

Or...Or... All the speculation and guessing should come to an end on Sept. 13 when I have my ultrasound. Meanwhile, any guesses?

Busy July

We have continued to enjoy a super busy, fun summer. Chris has been working hard and hasn't been able to get a day off even though we've gone out of town almost every weekend. Unfortunately, he has missed some of our family get-togethers, so we've especially enjoyed the times when he has been there. Here is some of what we've done:

Christopher's first trip to the zoo with cousinsThis was his reaction most of the time Cousin Landon's birthday party- Christopher was NOT happy about the hat- haha!

Here are a couple of pictures from the 24th in Cokeville. I was excited to run in the David Dayton Fun Run with sisters and cousins (plus tons of other cousins not in the picture).

We were able to take another fun trip to the cabin, this time with some good friends from our ward. I'm bugged I didn't get a picture of the whole group, but here is Christopher with his girls:
Christopher loves the water, just like his dad!
I tried uploading a cute video of Christopher playing at home, but I gave up after the third try (it kept saying error and showed YouTube instead of Blogger- weird). Maybe I'll try again later. By the way, for those of you who keep updated on our lives mainly through our blog, we are excited that I'm expecting another baby and am due Feb 1. Life is great and we have been so blessed!
