IT'S A BOY!!!!!

Well, we are soon to be a family of 3 Boys and 2 Girls. Katie went to the Dr. today in Spokane for her ultrasound and it became official that it's going to be a boy.

I've tried to scan in come pictures from the ultrasound. This first one is the 4D ultrasound it's pretty cool as you can see. He's already trying to show off the guns, but as you can see he is just about as big as his Dad...me and my 12 inchers.

The next picture is a profile view of his face.

The next is his soon to be runner's leg. That definitely looks like a runner's leg so hopefully he will be the next great Bullock cross-country runner along with Ty.

The last picture is a great shot of his junk. I hope he doesn't mind me displaying it to the world, but as you can see there is no question that he is a boy.

Well we are sure excited to have a little buddy for Ty to play with and Bailee is excited to have another brother. They were already coming up with names today, a few examples of their choices are: Charlie, Stanley, Ernie, Happy, Elmo, just to name a few. Obviously they get all their name choices from the Disney channel and cartoon characters. Katie is due on Nov. 20th but if this one is anything like Bailee and Ty she will be having him sometime in October. Well I am going to try to do a better job of updating this so hopefully another post will be coming soon. Later. Ryan

FATHERS & SONS


Well I guess I can start to do some blogging since Katie is quite the slacker when it comes to posting stuff. Anyway, Tyson and I went on out first Fathers and sons campout this past weekend. We went to the Spruces camp ground up Big Cottonwood Canyon. It was actually the fathers and sons of my parents ward and since we are here for the summer in Utah I though it would be fun to go along. Luckily, we had a blast.
Tyson was the youngest person there by a couple years but he was great and had a fun time. We went for a hike and he wanted to hike all the places that I couldn't get like under trees and through bushes. He would always turn back to me and say "Dad, are we having fun?" I thought we were so I told him we were having tons of fun. We threw rocks and pine cones down a little stream and chased after chipmunks.
I forgot a sleeping bag for Ty so we had to share. Needless to say I slept horribly. Tyson slept like a rock. We slept out under the stars and he woke up at 5:30 am at what I call the "butt crack of dawn." He was wide awake and was asking where the stars went and was watching the chipmunks run up and down the tree. I just laid there but he stayed in the sleeping bag until about 7, then we had to get up and try to hit the chipmunks with sticks and pine cones.
Ty wasn't too big a fan of the fire. He was putting a stick in the fire, like everyone does, and set it down for a minute and when he came back he grabbed the burnt end and got a small burn on his finger. After that he wanted nothing to do with the fire. I guess it's good he learned his lesson early. Anyway, it was a fun time and I think we are going to go back up in a couple of weeks with Katie and Bailee.
