Happy Easter!


We hope everyone had a Happy Easter! We are so excited Spring is here!! Although I feel like it might snow into May, hopefully not, but you never know! Brinley looked so adorable in her Easter dress we just had to share, her Daddy didn't look too shabby either :) These pictures were taken outside the Ogden Temple after our stake conference on Easter.
The grounds were so gorgeous we just couldn't miss this photo op!!

Baby Animal Days


On Friday we went up to Baby Animal Days in Cache Valley. We didn't know it was such a huge production!! There was hundreds of people...we envisioned a little quaint farm and baby animals to pet. It was at the Heritage of the American West Center-a huge farm-and there were lots of cute baby animals. Brinley, however, was not so sure about them. She screamed when Brian tried to put her down with the baby goats. She was ok to stand by the bunny cage for a quick picture. But she loved hanging out with Aunt Jackie, Uncle Matt and Mommy and Daddy and she did LOVE her hot dog!
Here are a few shots of the day.

Announcing Baby Twitchell #2!!!

We are so excited to announce that we are going to have a baby! Brinley is excited that she will be a BIG SISTER! I am 12 weeks along and am doing well. I have been tired and sick but I think that part is almost over! This ultrasound is from 3/27/09 and our little baby is about 3.7 cm long. It is not the best picture, but ultrasounds are glossy and hard to photograph I discovered. You can see the baby's head on the right and the body on the left, there is a little leg too. We took Brinley to this appointment and she thought it was cool that she could see the baby and see the arms and legs move!

We got Brinley this Big Sister shirt and that is how we told Brian's family. Paul and Caroline took us all out to dinner and we thought it would be the perfect opportunity. We had it on her under her jacket, and after our drinks came, Brian took her jacket off and everyone was surprised!

The cupcake is how we told my family about the baby. I made cupcakes and put little plastic babies inside...Brian said they had his hair. I got this idea from Brian's cousin, Mindy, whose sister-in-law did it to their family. Anyway it was funny because my nephew, Carter was the first to find it and he thought he won a prize, and then my brother-in-law Brandyn thought it was an April's Fools' joke!! But everyone was excited for us when we told them, they were in the cupcakes because we were going to have a baby!



The big Due Date is October 22nd!

Ok, but I decided to change the Tag to 5-5-5, it sounded nicer than 6-6-6.
But I still tagged 6 friends.


This was my picture! Wasn't Brinley an adorable kangaroo? This was Halloween 2007 before Brinley could even walk...maybe the kangaroo costume was a precursor of things to come!! Brinley certainly bounces off the walls sometimes!
