Traditions

We have a Christmas Eve tradition where we all get new pj's and a new book. The kids love to spend then evening going through their new book with the family. This year Caden got a new Star Wars book and Trenton got the Guiness Book of World Records that he had been asking for the last 6 months! Dave go the book, I'm a Lebowski, You're a Lebowski - Life, The Big Lebowski, and What Have You and I got the Vince Flynn book that I've been waiting to read.

Snow Much Fun!

We've had tons of snow. We probably have at least 18 inches in our yard right now. The boys have been having great fun playing in it as often as possible. Of course, that is followed by a cup of hot chocolate. Here are a few pictures of our recent snow adventures.

A Closer Look

Aren't ultra sound images amazing these days??? We had a 2nd ultra sound today and were lucky enough to get this 3D view of our little baby. Dave thinks she looks like Caden did when he was born. Check out those chubby cheeks and scowl on her face. After we finally got this picture she covered her face with her little hands and wouldn't let us see her again. I think she has an attitude already! They did confirm for a 2nd time that it is indeed a girl which put my mind at ease. Now I can officially wash all the pink items I have for her! Just 9-10 weeks left until we get to meet the newest member of our family.

It's been too long!

It's been way too long since I've posted to my blog! Sorry to both of you faithful viewers!
Anyhow, we've been busy but with nothing special.
