Its A BOY!!!

I went in for an Ultrasound April 15th (Ashleys B-day) ( I was 15 weeks along) and we found out we are having a BOY!! We are so excited, Braden will have a brother to play with and Ashley will be surrounded by boys. The nurse asked if we wanted to know what we were having so I said; "yes of course!" It didnt take more than 2 seconds and she said; Its a BOY!!" Braden was the exact same way, he wanted us to know he was all boy. Ashley on the other hand kept us guessing until she was born.

People keep asking if we have a name but going off our record we will be lucky if we have a name by the time he is born. We will see!

Family Pictures April 2009

My friend Toby took us to a little town near by and took these awesome pictures of our family. She did such a great job. Usually pictures take forever and the kids are acting up but this was so nice to have someone be able to just worry about us and get it over and done with. The entire session lasted about 20 min max and we got so many cute pics. Thanks Toby!!!!

Fun Little Birthday Party

We invited a few kids from the neighborhood over for Braden and Ashleys birthday party. The kids had a great time playing pin the tail on the donkey, making pizza, hitting the pinata and having cup cakes. I was so exhausted by the end of the party, this "Birthday week" is going to be lots of work!!

The Big Announcement

Well we have some Big news, baby #3 is on its way!!

We found out January 25th and are so excited. We were not expecting it to happen so soon but ready or not here baby comes!! Shortly after finding out I started getting the nasty taste in my mouth, if you have never experienced it be very grateful for that. It is awful and makes it even harder to find something you can eat. Worst of all it doesn't go away until the baby is born.

Brian left for out rotations the entire month of February, shortly after he was gone I started getting sick. It was the most sick I have been and trying to take care of 2 kids and not having a Husband was very hard. I spent most my days laying on the couch and watching the Olympics. The kids were troopers and the morning/all day sickness lasted about 6 weeks and I was back to my normal self.

Brian and I are pretty secretive when it comes to that kind of stuff so we were able to keep it a secret for quite a while. I had my 1st doc app at 13 weeks and we got to hear the heart beat and that was exciting so we started telling people then. I took pictures of Braden and Ashley wearing shirts that said; "Big Sister", and "Im going to be a Big brother," and we sent them off to family members. We are so excited for baby #3 to come to our house this September.

These are just a few fun pics from last summer.

Spicers

I took the kids to Spicers Orchard about once a week this summer. It is one of my most favorite things to do. We picked strawberries, raspberries, blue berries and cherries. The kids love it and get to eat fresh good food. We always go and play at the playground after and eat cider and donuts......ahhh I just love it and cannot wait to go back!!
