WE ARE HAVING A..........

BOY!

For some of you this is going to be a complete surprise that I'm pregnant!! So, SURPRISE!
I am now 22 weeks, my due date is set for July 22nd, but my doctor (god bless her) has no problem inducing me early!! So I imagine I will be going a little earlier than that.

You may have been wondering, why have I waited to tell the news?? Well, I miscarried before this one and then the first three months of the pregnancy was touch and go for a bit....ended up at the ER once and the doc told me that my body was attempting to miscarry again...so now that everything seems to be off and running...I feel a little more confident.

So....that is what has been happening here!
We signed Liam up for kindergarten this week...(sniffle,sniffle) I cannot believe he will be going to school!!
He had his first "sport" practice yesterday...it was a little intimidating at first, but he ended up loving it.....
It was funny, he was the largest kid out there and he was the most intimidated....but he made it!
I'll try to get some pictures up soon!

This is our Christmas photo that we took ourselves...we had our first Christmas in our new house. It was very nice!
Also I put up another video of snow sledding..this hill is RIGHT behind our house....so much fun...of course its part of the golf course, who is golfing when its covered in snow??? We do enjoy our new place.....this was a major plus having a HILL behind your house to go sleigh riding on! Add another point to the move!
don't forget to scroll down to the next post, I put two up since I've slacked off.....
At the end of the video Jeremy and Chris have a little race.....just in case your wondering who the large kids were.....:-)

Where, Oh where have you been???????

GREETINGS EVERYONE!
Yes I have been a slacker....but my goal was to get a new post up by January 31st and well I have about 3hrs to get it done, or better yet....2 1/2.
Thanksgiving came and it was tasty.....then Christmas....Liam received a TON of transformers....Ella liked opening presents, but hasn't really played with much of "her" toys..she wants to play with the transformers...even knows some of their names. Pretty much on a daily basis we have an Autobot vs Decepticon war. For those of you who don't know what the heck that means....count your blessings! But I must say....Liam is occupied pretty much all day with those things....
Preschool has been going better for him......he has found him a buddy. He was the "new kid" for the first part of the year and it stressed him out..he had a hard time with a new school and all of the 22 kids that were in his class....bit overwhelming!
Just finished his testing...teacher said that he was very bright, but struggled with his social skills.....and that his patience level is very low....DUH, I could of told her that a LONG time ago. For those of you who know Liam, we have came along way from age 2! And we are still making progress.......
Little Ella, she is a fireball!! She never sits down, only when she sleeps....and sometimes she tries to skip that. She potty trained her self in November.....AND I truly mean she did this on her own. She just one day started to come and tell me that she had to go pee....I on the other hand wasn't ready...sometimes being in a store with a two year old size bladder....was getting in the way of mama's shopping. But now I am very thankful.....
She is a typical girl, dresses herself, puts on her own slip on shoes....wants her hair in ponytails....she is a girly girl.....
Below I put a little video on of what she is like just about everyday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELLA!!

It's Birthday #2 for Miss Ella.......
She is quite the little lady these days...she KNOWS what she wants and when she wants it...She is doing great with the potty, not trained but well on her way...we are STILL cutting 2 year molars....her vocabulary is getting better, she is starting to put her word into sentences. She also loves her blanket she named "manny" clueless on why its named that, but whatever works for her.
She had her first haircut this weekend, she did not like that at all, but we were able to get a trim.
I took some pictures from our events...enjoy!

Wedding Weekend

Over the weekend we went to Louisville, KY for our good friend Jesse's wedding...it was so much fun...and believe it or not it was such a nice, RELAXED wedding....we enjoyed ourselves greatly!
Ella danced but of course Liam was not having it!! And by 9:30pm they were both ready to go...but other than that we enjoyed our little getaway...here are some pictures of the event!
Sorry for the cheesy face I am making in the picture above....this is why I do not post many picture of moi'

Introducing my new babysitter!

Our computer has become a big hit with Ella now...Liam has been playing on it for awhile, but now miss Ella is big enough to sit beside her brother and "watch"...NOW before all of you nay sayer's start...I will say it first...NOT FOR LONG....I know she will begin to think she can play too!! And then fighting will start and everything else...but for now, I enjoy the serenity of peace and happiness!
The summer is practically over...and we have settled in our new place of living....I am hoping next summer will be much more relaxed. Holidays are coming!! Halloween is just around the corner and this is my FAVORITE holiday!! Liam wants to be a Transformer and Ella...well lets just hope she will participate. She is into her age 2, and has already cut one of her 2 year molars...which may explain some of this attitude I've come across here lately...all she wants to chew on is ice...she is surviving on milk and air for her nourishment. AND she has been very interested in the potty...if she's naked she rarely makes a mess, BUT if I put a pull up on her, she tends to forget...so if you show up at our house...you may see a full moon running around the house!
