First off I want to let you all know I'm finally past the sick part of the pregnancy. HOORAY! It was a wicked four months and I don't know how I can forget something as traumatic as that enough to have four kids but thank heavens we are past the worse part. Now I'm getting a belly and we have the ultra sound on the 28th which we are looking forward to.
The weather here in unbelieveable. Today it got up to 67 so to celebrate we decided to go hiking to Whiskeytown Lake. It's only about 20 minutes away so we were surprised to find the waterfall trail closed because of snow. We went a little further down hill and found an easy 1 1/2 mile hike that wound around the river. The kids did great. No complaining, except from Ellie who has legs shorter than your average sheep, and she made it most of the way back to the car before a piggyback. 
We traipsed through mud and snow and it was beautiful. I'm hoping to get out as much as possible before the heat and the belly put a stop to that. Even then I plan on doing a lot of floating around pools and the lake. Watch for the floating hippopotomous!

Three of the pictures are from our hike today, and the other is Ellie on her noble steed (did I mention how patient and wonderful that dog is?!) The one with McKenna and Dee is our surprise at seeing snow. Who knew?! So, for all those of you who are tired of snow an looking for a place to visit come on over!

Looks like fun. I'm glad you're feeling better. You'd better let us know what you're having as soon as you find out! I forgot to tell Ty congrats on losing his tooth from your last post so tell him that we're happy for him.
