Happy New Year!

Okay, I finally realized the fact that I have been majorly slacking in keeping this thing updated. It has been a long time, too long in fact, so it's time for an update.

For those of you who haven't heard we are expecting boy number 2 in April. We decided to name him Kaydon Bryant. Trenton is super excited to be a big brother and keeps asking when the baby is going to be here. We have been waiting a long time for another baby, so this is the best thing we could have asked for.

Trenton turned 3 on September 13th. He is according to him "a SUPER big boy." He loves to work and with all the snow that we have had, he decided his favorite thing is to shovel the driveway or walkway. He loves to set the table for dinner and help cook, especially with his kitchen that he got for Christmas. He has a cute apron that Grandma and Grandpa Miller gave to him so he always wears it when he is helping cook. The bigger and bigger mommy's belly gets the more and more Trenton gets to do, which he loves. It's nice to have a little helper around.

Derek has just started getting more work again after about a month off. He is working again now that things have picked up for the company, who he came up here to work for originally and also works for a lady in our ward cleaning some properties that she owns. He loves hanging out with Trenton and can't wait to have another boy so that the "boys" can continue to dominate the house. ;-)

I am just busy with Trenton, the house, and getting ready for another baby. Trenton and I like to do "school" everyday when daddy is at work. It seems like I am constantly playing games with Trenton too. He has a competitive side already...we'll see how that turns out when he's older. ;-) I love him though. Kaydon is a crazy little guy already and makes it hard to sleep most of the time because he is ALWAYS moving. The ultrasound tech had a hard time keeping up with him when she did the ultrasound. Derek and Trenton think it's pretty cool to get to see and feel him kicking and moving. Derek especially enjoys it because he couldn't ever feel Trenton moving.

Things as a family and wonderful and we feel very blessed. It is a great time of the year to count your blessings and also to take note of the things you want to change. We are excited that we got to have this time to take count of our lives. We hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas season and also a great new year. We love you all and wish you the best of luck in all you do.

Love,
Derek, Dana, Trenton, & Kaydon
