Halloween 2010

Here are some pics from Halloween. Will was our little fisherman this year. He loves to fish and we already had everything to complete his costume. I tried to add on some gummy worms but he kept eating them. We had a great time even though he was done after 8 or so houses.

Things are going pretty good now. I am 17 weeks and anxiously awaiting November 29th. That is not only Mike's birthday but also the day we will find out if we are having another little boy or a little girl.




Enjoy the pics!!!

Big Brother Will

Well it's official. We are expecting a new little bundle of joy next April. We are both really excited but Will has no idea what is going on. We tried taking him to the first doctor appt. to try and get him to understand but he just wanted to play with everything else in the room. Hopefully, as I start to grow he might start to ask questions.

Will and the new little one will almost be 3 years apart. I think that is just about right. Not too close and not too far apart.

So far this hasn't been the easiest pregnancy but I spoke with the little peanut and am sure that we are going to be over this hump very soon. We will find out the first week of December what we are having (just in time for Christmas).

Yellowstone

We just got back from a family vacation in Yellowstone. We had a great time and got to see a lot of things from Old Faithful to the lower and upper waterfalls to Elk, Bison, Antelope and many other animals. Will got to ride on an airplane, ride in a bus and go for a short train ride. He was as perfect as a 2 year old could be.

Will is doing great and just blows our minds every day with all that he is learning. We are up to 5 or 6 word sentences now and he is ready for potty training, I just hope that I am up for the task. Here are some pics from our trip.

The New House

I know a lot of you have been bugging me to get pictures up and I guess the entire months of April and May I was too busy with Will and putting the new house together. God has blessed us and allowed us to have such a beautiful home that under most circumstances we would never be able to afford. Enjoy!!!

This room is now officially Will's playroom because I don't know what else to do with it.

Dining Room

Living Room


Bonus Room/Upstairs Family Room

Master Bath w/ Jacuzzi Tub (Will uses it more than anyone else).
Yes, this is the master closet!!

Will's Room

The crib only lasted a week before he decided he was ready for a big boy bed.

Our first Pool Party. The best part of the house.

The Big #2

My baby boy is getting so big. I can't really call him my baby anymore. He is talking so much now and putting together 3 words at a time. We have moved to a big boy bed now and are working on potty training. He eats everything in sight and the only real big problem we have is sleeping. I guess mom and dad have spoiled him too much and he just doesn't want to sleep in his bed all alone. We have had a fun couple of weeks. He has had 2 birthday parites, been to a parade, concert and a carnival. Here are some pics so you can see how fast he is growing. We go in later this week for our checkup and we will see how tall this little guy is.

Just Chilling!!!

Moving Day!!

Hello Everyone--

I am so sorry for the blog slacking but I have a good excuse. Mike and I have been debating about moving for a while now and in the month of February we found a really good deal on a foreclosure. We went back in forth in negotiations over several weeks and during that time we were getting our house ready to put on the market. We finally listed our house on Tuesday March 16th in time for the tax credits. We had a contract on it in 48 hrs. We finally reached an agreement with the bank on the foreclosure and tomorrow April 8th is moving day. I can't believe how fast everything has happened but God definitely had a plan for us. I will be posting some pictures soon but I wanted to make the announcement so that everyone knew what was going on.

Will is doing great and has been mommy's little helper. He helps unpack the boxes just as quickly as I can pack them.

Wednesday Funday!!!

Yesterday was a beautiful day and we definitely took advantage of that. During the day Will and I found a great park that had boardwalk with a lake on it. There were ducks and geese for him to watch. He had a great time running up and down the boardwalk. He is keeping us busy these days and growing like a weed. I think we have reached a hurdle and have not seen a doctor since he had tubes put. It is amazing how happy he is when we are not fighting a sickness.
We have also been very busy with getting our house ready to put on the market. We are hoping to have it for sale soon.



Once daddy got home from work we took Will down to the river and had a little picnic. We were hoping to see some boats but not even one came by. He had fun picking up sticks and playing in the dirt.
