Why God Made Little Boys

God made the world out of His dreams Of magic mountains, oceans and streams, Prairies and plans and wooded land, Then paused and thought "I need someone to stand On top of mountains, to conquer the seas, Explore the plains and climb the trees. Someone to start out small and to grow, Sturdy, strong as a tree…" And so, He created boys, full of spirit and fun, To explore and conquer, to romp and run. With dirty faces and banged up chins, With courageous hearts and boyish grins. When He had completed the task He'd begun He surely said "A job well done".

Looks like another cute little boy for the Williams family, and we couldn't be happier!! I do have to admit that I felt a tad bit disappointed that I wouldn't be able to use those 3 dresses that I bought, or decorate her room like I planned, but yesterday I went out and bought a couple of really cute blue things...so I'll be just fine. Unfortunately for Jared, I am looking forward to decorating another boys room and have already started researching the possibilities. Speaking of Jared, he was totally relieved to find out we were having another boy. He admitted that he was feeling worried that it might be a girl...because we all know how those dad's are so protective of their little girls. The more I thought about it the more I felt grateful to still be the only girl in the house. I would surely welcome another female, but it's nice knowing that I'm still the queen of the house. Now if only we could think of a name...

Indeed it was..

Christmas and the New Year were both very merry in the Williams household.

I love the holidays with kids. Christmas is so much more meaningful with excited little ones running around. Here's what we did...Christmas morning my family came over for a delicious breakfast. That night we visited Jared's family. We celebrated the New Year over at Jared's parents house, along with some siblings. We ate a breakfast dinner (one of my fav. things to do), played some games, and then watched a movie. After the holidays we thought it would be fun to go up to Jared's parents cabin in Heber and enjoy the snow for a weekend. It was lots of fun! Wyatt loved sledding! It was nice having Jared home for awhile...we had fun going to dinner with family, seeing movies, shopping, playing games, seeing the temple lights... I am a little sad it's all over...and a little relieved as well. Now we move on to planning vacations and for baby #3!!

The girls...Connie, Christine, Carrie, Jenny(we didn't plan the "blue" theme either!)

My siblings....Cam, Me, Connie, Carrie

Modeling a new coat (as if you needed an explanation)

I had to post this so you could see how fashionable Cam and Jenny's Stella is!

Worn out after a busy Christmas morning!
