New News!

While we were in Sanibel this year I suspected I might be pregnant and well....I WAS RIGHT!! Jeff and I were so excited that we couldn't wait to tell his Mom and our boys while we we together in Sanibel. She was thrilled about our news and Owen was too. Grant wasn't so sure, his only comment was "that is so funny!" We then thought we would wait to tell other family members and friends after I had seen a doctor. Owen took the matter into his own hands at Jake Zollinger's birthday party and told his friend Tyler that I was expecting and the news spread like wildfire. It really was pretty cool how it happened because I wasn't sure how I was going to tell everyone and who to tell first. We then called pretty much everyone we knew that day and the word was out!


I finally saw the doctor yesterday and I was confirmed 8 weeks and 5 days pregnant! I am due November 26th--the day before Thanksgiving! We are thrilled and so excited for number three!
Here's a picture of Grant at 1 month and Owen was 2 years 3 month old. Oh it will be nice to hold a baby again :)!


I'm Back!!

I know it has been months since last blogged and I guess over the holidays I got out of the routine and I just never got back into it. Sorry to all of you who follow our blog. I think I'll just try and do a quick recap and then move on from there!

We did have an AWESOME holiday season filled with lots of family and friends. It was nice to stay in FL another year for the Holidays. The kids are so into the holiday spirit and just love to be home for all of the festivities. Something we did different this year was that we did a Christmas brunch here at our house which was tons of fun(and work) with lots of friends. It really was a nice way to share the Christmas spirit with everyone!



We started another baseball season with Daddy coaching Grant's t-ball team The Riverdogs and Owen playing for the machiene pitch team The Cardinals. I do have to brag a bit and tell you Owen had 4 homeruns the first 3 games he played, then had a streak of a few games with strike outs and now last week he had 2 base hits and another Homerun!!! Owen loves the game and is a true player. He is very passionate and competative when it comes to sports. Grant is doing better than last season with not getting so bored and he can really throw the ball! He just likes to get out there and play with his friends.


We vacationed a few weekends in Sanibel, FL and again for a week over the kids spring break in early April. We stayed with Jeff's Mom in the same place she has rented for the past few years now. Over Easter Jeff's sister and her family joined us there and we all had a grand old time together. We look forward to this trip every year and the kids really look forward to spending some time with their "Nanny."
