ITS A GIRL

We found out on the 2ND of January from Fetal Fotos in Murray that we are welcoming another Little girl into our home. We were really hoping it was time for our boy to come, but not the case and we will just have to wait a little bit longer. I am really hoping our boy comes next because it is our last baby. Only 4 kids for this Ohngren family. We are not sure on names yet for her because we were really counting on a boy so we only had boy names chosen. Oh well, there is always a time and place and this little girl was supposed to come now so we are happy and anxious to meet her in June of 2010!

Christmas 2009 and birthdays

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas. I know that the Ohngren family did! We got so many wonderful gifts from everyone and I think the best part was just seeing how excited KaraLynn and Brynlee were. Well maybe not so much Brynlee, But Kara Could hardly sleep the night before. We got both girls into bed at 8:30, and started to set up stuff in the front room. Brynlee got a bunch of fun toys which she desperately needed. she got this rocking horse that sings and she just loves it! She sat on it the whole morning while I opened her gifts for her. She was not all into the whole Christmas thing, considering that she is only 1. She also got a few different clothes and fun candy. KaraLynn got clothes and a Vtech Vmotion from Santa Clause which she does not totally get how to play but she is sure trying. She also got lipstick, chapstick, playdough, a bicycle helmet, lots of books and coloring books markers and crayons, she made out like a fat rat! Steve and I got lots of fun things as well including a george foreman grill, a toolbox for Steve for his taxidermy supplies, I also got him a camera for his hunting which is so nice! He got me some Cd's, A huge red purse that I love! and a wallet that matches, it looks like crocodile skin. SO CUTE! I got another purse from my mother in law that is super cute too and am just waiting to use it. I got cookbooks and other fun stuff, but we got lots of nice gifts too and have wonderful family that helped out way more than they should have LOL but it was sure appreciated.
5days after Christmas came Brynlee's 1st birthday. she was so cute, she really is not into the opening presents thing, but that's OK she has next year to be more into it. we had my family, the coopers, come over to The Ohngrens house for the celebration, we had cake that looked like birthday presents stacked on each other because of the way I decided to put the icing on. It was cute but the cake we used was strawberry which we will never do again. Super sweet! too sweet for me, so needless to say we also did cupcakes and those were cherry chip and they went fast. We ended up just throwing away the cake a couple days after because no one would touch it. we definitely learned our lesson. 5 days after that was my birthday, on the 4th of January, but we celebrated it the Saturday before since my birthday fell on a Monday. So on Saturday we decided to hit up Fetal fotos in Murray to find out the gender of our new one that will join our family in June. That was part of my birthday present and it was a fun experience, definitely way better than the fatal studios in the mall. more comfortable atmosphere. That night we had a couple friends over and my family for a small party. we had hot dogs for dinner and for desert of course the cake which was a better than sex cake. It consists of sweetened condensed milk caramel whipped cream and toffe bits all on the same cake. with all the creamy stuff drizzled throughout the cake making it just moist and delicious. I got lots of fun things for my birthday as well. The baby gender check was one of them, I got the carrie underwood CD and Lucky perfume and an in styler!!! its the coolest straightener. From my parents i got a super cute hand purse that I can use on formal nights for our next cruise in a couple years. inside were a couple of gift cards to wal mart, which I will use so fast!
All in all we had a great year. Lots and lots happened and we hope that this year we will be able to move on to greener pastures and be on our own again. It is very hard being in someone elses house and have to share everything. I want so bad to be able to run my own house again and not have to worry so much about what gets broken or touched or who is still sleeping. It is also hard not having friends nearby that I can hang with during the day that also have kids so that my girls can play. It has been a good year though all in all, we are all still healthy and living life.
