We have officially come up with a name. Ever since we found out we were pregnant we could only think of girl names. We tried to think of boy names but we never found anything we liked well enough to say that's what we would name our child. We each had our girl names picked out but neither one of us liked the other ones name well enough to give in to naming our child that. Then one day at work, Lynette, said she had thought of a name for us in the middle of the night. When she told me I loved it from the begining and called Josh to see what he thought and he loved it too. So we have stuck with it and now we can't change it cuz Hunter has it down pat.
It's going to be:

McKenna Grace Alvey
Grace was my grandma's name who I have never met (only in heaven) (my mom's mom) and I love the name Grace but Josh wasn't fond of it ever for a first name so we settled on a middle name.
Things are still going well with this pregnancy. I have only gained 4 pounds (which is fine with me). I am due June 2 and we are so excited for this little gal to get here.

Hunter Funnies

I know it's been ages since I updated but life is crazy. Here's a few Hunter funnies for you to laugh at.

*Sunday we were sitting in Sacrament meeting and it was time to bless the bread and water. So we told Hunter to sit down and fold his arms so we could bless the bread and water. He sat down on the bench, folded his arms and said, "Dear Heavenly" then Josh and I busted up laughing and he stopped and wanted to know what we were laughing at. It was so stinkin funny and cute! We are so glad that he is learning a few things in life that are important. Unlike the penny ordeal. Story to come...

*Yesterday (2/15), Hunter was on the couch watching his Bye-Bye (DirecTv has a program called Baby 1st tv and they have this band on it that is called Shushy-bye and so he calls it bye-bye) and Josh and I were in our room watching a movie. He had his monies with him (he loves coins and being able to have money in his hand). All of a sudden Josh and I hear him choking so we run out there and low and behold he swallowed his money. We aren't sure wheather it was a dime or a penny but we know it was one of them. Then he was so sad because his money was all gone. We will just keep checking the diaper and wait for the results. :)

*Hunter has been very into watching movies lately. Namely 3 of them. Elmo, Thomas the Train, and Cars. They get very old to mom and dad but he loves them so whatever. Anyways, he was in our room watching one of his movies and I was in the kitchen fixing dinner and from my room I hear, "Dinner ready?" He was asking me if dinner was ready like his dad does sometimes. Keep in mind he is almost 2 1/2. Then the other day he was in the living room and he was coloring on his art easel and he stops and asks "dinner ready?"

*Speaking of his art easel (he got it for Christmas) he was coloring on it the other day and yet again it was while Josh and I were fixing dinner. He wanted to help and all of a sudden I see something on his face. Took a closer look...yes, he colored his ears! Not only did he color them but the insides of them too. He was so proud of himself!

*Hunter has a bear that my brother gave to him when he was first born. He loves his bear and about a week ago he took it to bed with him and then when he woke up the bear went everywhere with him! The bear ate breakfast (Hunter shared his toast), got dressed with Hunter, went potty in the big boy toilet, went bye-bye with him. You name it the bear did it.

*Hunter also has a kitty/bear thing that Krystal got him when she went to Italy. We were sitting in church and he took his kitty and layed it on my lap and covered it with his blanket and then was rubbing it's belly. I asked him if he was practicing for when the baby gets here and he said yes. I told him he was going to be a good big brother.

*Hunter and I always get our coats out of the closet together in the mornings to leave. I always make him zip up his coat and since my belly has gotten bigger I haven't been able to zip my coat up. Hunter gets so mad because I make him do his coat up but I can't. He tells me, "zip it momma" and I say I can't Hunter. He asks why and I tell him because McKenna is in the way and it will squish her. Then he says, Kenna in the way! and is so mad because she is in the way of zipping up my coat.

Well that's a few Hunter funnies for your entertainment. Enjoy!
