Someone isn't a good secret keeper!

We told our family a few weeks ago, but were waiting on telling everyone else until we were further along. But Jordy got sick of keeping the secret and somehow got a picture of my snack and posted it to Instagram. Pretty soon I start getting all kinds of messages of people wondering if this was an announcement, if this was morning sickness, who is sick? I was so confused because I knew I hadn't posted anything on there recently so I got on and saw her lovely picture. So thanks to my technology savvy 2 year old, we are happy to announce baby #3! Jord wants a brother, but Caid said if it's a boy, we're sending him back. Luckily no sickness yet and we're almost to the second trimester! I was sick with both girls so maybe Caid is out of luck on this one!

Bieber Fever

We bought our tickets 6 months ago to see Justin Bieber and luckily bought them on the presale because once they went on sale, they were gone in 20 minutes. I went with Kristi and we had the time of our lives! We laughed at all the teenage girls bawling when he came on stage and danced ate cotton candy and sang all night. I ended up having one of my young women a few rows over from me and she got backstage passes to meet him and then Zach's cousins were a few rows in front of me. We must have been in the party section! I recorded a few of the songs for my girls and they listen to it over and over. Maybe they'll be lucky enough for me to take them when they get older!

Happy New Years!!

We popped open the bubbly with my parents and rang in the new year...at 8:30 pm. Then sent the kids to bed and watched a little tv and I think we might have made it to midnight? What a difference from 10 years ago when I was celebrating with all the other crazies downtown in the cold!

Baby, Oh! by Justin Bieber (rewritten by the Rideout's)

For Christmas every year, the Rideout's do skits. And it gets competitive. There is a ceramic pig with all the winners written on it as the coveted trophy. This year we had it in the bag, until Simon cleaned out the stuffed cow toy stash at Chic-fil-a and bribed everyone for his vote.

Jordyn loves Justin Bieber and calls him her boyfriend. She sings and dances to his songs all the time! So this song only felt perfect for our family skit. (And since blogger won't let me upload anymore pictures, I will have to wait on the rest of my posts I have waiting until I can figure it out.)

Caid: Hey girlfriend!
Jordyn: Hey what?
Caid: Who's your boyfriend?
Jordyn: Justin Bieber
Caid: What does he sing?
Jordyn: Baby, baby OHHH!!!

You know you love me, I know you care
Just shout whenever, and I'll be there
You are my love, you are my heart
And we will never, ever, ever be apart

I have a secret, Girl, quit playin'
It's big news. What are you sayin'?
There's another to add to our girls.
And Zach's stress level began to swirl.

Chorus:
We're having a baby, baby, baby, oh
A baby, baby, baby, no
A baby, baby, baby, oh
I'm glad you'll always be mine, mine
Baby, baby, baby, oh
A baby, baby, baby, no
A baby, baby, baby, oh
I'm glad you'll always be mine, mine

For you, I would have done whatever
18 months and clomid later
We're trying to play it cool, but couldn't wait to tell you
She's buying everything, the diapers need a whole wing

I'm sick to pieces, baby help me
Can't wait til August til this baby we get to see
I'm gonna be sick, sick, sick, sick
And I just can't believe the pills worked the first round

Chorus

Zach's rap:
When I was 27, I had my first kid
There was nobody that compared to my baby
And nobody came between us who could ever come above
Then Jordyn came, oh I was in love
They wake me up daily, don't need no Starbucks
They make my head pound
I miss my sleep when they sneak into our sheets
And I wish they'd sleep more sound
But I can't wait for the new addition
My kids drive me crazy but they're so amazin'
I may never get a boy, buy I just keep on prayin'

Chorus

Our sleep is all gone (Yeah, yeah, yeah)(Yeah, yeah, yeah)  Sleep's all gone (Yeah, yeah, yeah)(Yeah, yeah, yeah) Sleep's all gone (Yeah, yeah, yeah)(Yeah, yeah, yeah) Our sleep is gone, gone, gone, gone. It's gone.

(And really I haven't been sick at all this time around so hopefully I've lucked out and it won't hit!!)
