The Best February Post Ever

If you missed it on facebook, we have some exciting news to share!!


Baby Rampton #2 is due August 8, 2015. (Making me 16 weeks today)
We could NOT be more excited!!!
Troy and baby will be 15 months apart, which I'm also really excited about. I hope they are the best of friends!
We find out March 16 if it's a boy or a girl. We are secretly hoping for a boy, but it'd also be awesome to have one of each gender.

Bobby celebrated another year older - 27! Holy cow. 
We celebrated with apple pie, of course.


Bobby got a new calling as priest quorm teacher (teachings of President Benson - lucky!). And I've decided that activity days is officially the best calling in the church.




Kylee - Troy's 10 year old aunt LOVES Troy, and begs me constantly if she can please take Troy to school, Sunday school, primary, activity days, etc. She has been relentless about me bringing in Troy for her show and tell, so I've finally said yes. It was a hoot! We came early and ate lunch and went to recess with her. She carried Troy around (he weighs only 35 lbs less than her) all of recess and showed him to her friends. Then we went to class where she presented Troy and asked if anyone wanted to hold him. Then called up her classmates one by one where they held him (most not so gracefully) for about 2 seconds until the next student got a turn (Hello measles?!). I was dying it was so funny, and dying seeing Kylee so proud. 
Troy was a trooper.
(No pictures due to a unreliable phone related to excess slobber)


We had the BEST Valentines I've ever had!
Friday night we went to a hotel downtown.


We are traveling a lot starting in June, and want to start getting Troy out of his crib to get used to it. The last time Troy was out of his own crib was in September!
He did awesome! We ate at a Mongolian Grill - endless shrimp! - and went maternity shopping (Bobby is the best). 
Then back to the hotel, put Troy down and tried to be silent until he fell asleep hahaha.
Next morning was 2 breakfasts (Troy wakes up early), swimming and more shopping. 
We came home and for dinner Kylee set up a "Night in Rome" and was our waitress. 
It was so beautiful and romantic! Except Troy was screaming downstairs the whole time with his babysitters (ie Kylees friends) so it was cut short a little. 



Colorado has been back and forth between beautiful and freezing. We took a walk in our short sleeves this morning, but tonight it is supposed to start snowing and not stop until 16 inches later...



#2 is the size of a avocado! Hoping to feel kicking soon.
