-will sit and rub your feet as long as you want as long as you rub his at the same time.
-has such a great sense of humor that makes you laugh even if it is a dumb blonde joke.
-teases you but you know that's his way of telling you he loves you.
-saves you from being just a place holder in the game of settlers.

Bundle on the Way
Yes, it's true! Lyle and I found out a few weeks ago that after many trials and prayers, we are going to be blessed with a beautiful bundle of joy! We are SO thrilled and can't wait to meet our new edition.
May 8 is the due date which is really funny because May is already a busy month with Mother's Day, Grandpa Hanchett's b-day, AND our anniversary. So if the baby comes late by a day, it will be here on Mother's Day. If it's late a week it's on our anniversary and Gpa H's b-day. What timing! :)
This baby is truely our miracle baby! The dr. was even surprised when I went for the first check up because where I was at with my progesterone levels, it was impossible to get pregnant...but here is our bundle!
I wish everyone could see Lyle when he tells people about it! He gets this proud father look and is so excited to tell anyone that will listen. :)I am so thrilled to finally see him with his first child...I've waited so long for it and now it's just until May.
So far the pregnancy has been a bit rough (I might just be a woose) because it's been constant nausciousness and tiredness so much that I've had to call in sick or miss church or other fun activites. My sweet husband has been SO understanding and caring. When I cry he takes me in his arms and just lets me know he's there, and the days NOTHING sounds good he is so willing to go to the ends of the earth for me just to find SOMETHING! I truely am so lucky to be blessed with a husband like him-so patient! He has made things easier to handle. :)
So if you didn't hear- I'M GOING TO BE A MOMMY! Dream come true!

Apples
I have always loved apples but have been picky...no red skinned, it needs to be cut, ...
The one time that I LOVE apples is when it is the fall and time for Dixon Apple Farm. Yum!
We took a last minute trip to Albuqueruqe this last weekend because Lyle's father was being put in as the Bishop of the Belen ward. While there, I didn't really have much of an appetite-I haven't been feeling well-and the only thing that would calm my stomach was a supply of Dixon Apple Farm apples from my parents fridge. I even brought some home on the plane and am still living off them.
How yummy they have been and what a relief on my stomach.

These days...
I LOVE fall...especially in Albuquerque. This is one of the times of year that I wish I still lived there because I love the smell, the color of the leaves, the rodeo, state fair, balloon fiesta, and my mom's decorating of her house with the villages and other things. I just LOVE it and wish I could be there! Still, even though Phoenix is still in the 100s (we're almost out) and the leaves are behind in changing, it feels like fall and I LOVE it! I love being able to cuddle in a blanket on the sofa, cuddle because Lyle is cold too!, drink hot chocolate, AND also decorate! My favorite two holidays and the only two that I decorate the house for is Halloween and Christmas. I just can't wait for October AND for my package of new decorations, I bought them (Jen know's the place and Mom has also been a victim!) at a fabulous store in Utah, to arrive. It all makes me giddy and wanting to decorate now! But I will wait a little bit longer. :) I just love the feeling!
I also figured that since I haven't posted about my wonderful trip to Utah, I'd share some stories from it. I'll post pictures later. I've been kinda lazy with that lately since I can't seem to kick this sickness.
We just LOVED playing with Cole! He is the cutest thing ever! We had been there for an hour or so when I went into Cole's room to see how Erin decorated it. She was in the other room and so I decided to call for her. I yelled "ERIN!" and not remember that there was a copy cat next to me, Cole yelled "ERIN!". In the other room I hear from Erin "Excuse me?!" I quickly corrected myself with "MOM!" and Cole followed suit. From then on I watched my mouth around him.
We went to church with them and Cole's really good friend, Ethan, sat across from us. As soon as the closing Amen was said, Cole (still stuck in the pew) called out "ETHAN!" and Ethan replied, "COLE!". Later, after church, we were heading out when Cole noticed a girl friend a ways down the hall. He proceeded to yell "I'M COMING! I'M COMING!" He is such a socialite!
Cole has definately gotten his mom's attitude! While we were sitting in the family room, I was waiting for Cole to come sit with me so we could read a story. He was standing in front of the tv and started playing with the VCR when I said "Cole, come read with me!". With one finger pointed in my direction, "JUST ONE MINUTE!"...and again, "JUST ONE MINUTE, KATY. WAIT!" He kept saying it with attitude until I finally convinced him to come play with me. :)
Enough of Cole. Erin and I went one morning to the amazing store (previously mention...I can't remember the exact name...Tao Pai...Oh I don't know) and Erin decided to have me push her around in a wheelchair so we could stay longer. She told me it's not that hard because Cole pushed her all the time and so I proceeded to push her first for a stop to the bathroom in the back. Let's just say by the time we got to the bathroom I was convinced that all that working out had done nothing for me because I was already winded and sweaty! Yikes! AND Cole could push her and have no problem?! What does that say about me?! So we went to the bathroom and after I came out, I was getting a drink and catching my breath trying to figure how I was going to make the whole store and I thought to ask Erin if she had taken off the brakes. She looked and realized the brakes had been on the whole time! No wonder Cole could push her around! She was nice enough to take the brake off for him! :)I felt better after that and we actually spent a while there and found many fun decorations for my house.
We had such a great time in Utah! Time with Cole, my sister, Lyle had much needed guy time with Bret, we all took a beautiful drive in the back country, and even got to see my grandpa Jack (I haven't seen him in 8 years). It was such a great time! Thanks Erin and Bret!
Other than that, life has been pretty eventless. Like I said, Lyle and I have been trying to get over these really bad allergies and so lately we have just been staying home and watching movies. It's been nice (aside from the sick part). Sunday is the Primary Program (this is our one year marker for being in primary) and then in two weeks we are looking forward to the Hanchett Family Reunion! Can't wait! Just staying busy and relaxing until then!
