Shhh.....

With months of being pet-less, we've finally taken the plunge. Judd's aunt called us with news of a new litter of Black labs. She breeds them and they are beautiful. She's saving us the biggest, spunkiest male. I'm pretty excited. We aren't going to tell the kids though because we don't get to bring him home for like 3 months and I don't want to hear about it every day. So I need your help. We are trying to pick a name for it and Judd wants the weirdest names ever, so I need everyone to cast a vote. (keep in mind, he's going to be a big, black male)

My Picks
1.Zeke
2.Brutus
3.Gus
4. Zeus
Update: My new favorite
5. Roscoe

Judd's picks
1. Festus
2. Clive
3. Bosifus (boseefus)
4. Trip
5. Bubba
In other goings on.... I've noticed I haven't posted for a while. Nothing's really been happening. Judd just returned from a trip to Idaho. He was there for Grandpa Jardine's funeral. I was happy he was able to go. However.... the second he leaves all of the kids get sick. Nolan was up coughing all night and keeping everyone else up so he came and slept with me, and kept me up all night. The baby wasn't feeling good, so he was up all night. While he was gone I had...
sing it
5 hours of sleep,
4 nights alone,
3 sick kids,
2 trips to grandma's
and a visit to the emergency room.
It was the greatest weekend of my life, not.
I did, amongst all the chaos, fit in a trip to the temple. That calmed me down a bit.
Oh, and we got some more family pics.

How adorable are those pictures. and by the way my choice is Gus! I love that name, I probably would have tried to name another boy gus if we would have had another boy, I guess thank heavens we didn't, poor kid!!! But I love it.
