Buddy Boys Laugh

Buddy Boy smiles all the time. However, getting him to laugh is different. Most of the time when he laughs it sounds like a fake laugh. This was too good not to get on camera. It cracks me up!

Enjoy!

Baby Number Four

It all started in the spring month of December. A lot of sicknesses was going around and I too just wasn't feeling very well. Many of my co-workers had a stomach bug that lasted about two weeks of off and on feeling yucky. So I figured that was my problem too. However, mine started to last much longer than two weeks. Smells really started to affect me as well. So over Christmas break I bought a pregnancy test and sure enough it came back positive.

Now there is only so much one can do when they are already trying to be 99% sure they won't get pregnant. This just assured RB and I that for whatever reason it was meant to be. Now this did present itself with some problems that needed to be worked out, like buying a bigger vehicle. We have been truly blessed in this little adventure of ours. Our tax return finished paying off our Scion, yea. Then we sold our second jeep and a car that we no longer would need for a down payment on the new vehicle. We were able to sell both vehicles on one Sat. so it was over and done with. Then came the shopping around for the vehicle. After getting financed and finding what we wanted we finally made a purchase. We bought a 2011 Toyota Sienna and we love it. Compared to our little Scion we have a TON of room. It is super nice and it should run for many, many year.

Yes, it was during our one and only snow storm this winter that we happened to be buying it.


So far things with this pregnancy have been good. Morning sickness is finally going away and even though I look like I've gained 15 pounds I've only gained 4. I had an appointment on Thurs. and the doctor said he was 55% sure it was a girl. My official ultrasound is in 2 weeks so we will see then if he is correct or not.

Things are going well for us. We have been blessed with things working out with this new little one on the way. MJ loves school and Lil can't wait to start next year. Buddy Boy is learning to walk and all is well. Have a great day everyone!

A Little Break

As cute as Buddy Boy is, getting him to sleep is not so cute. In fact, it can be quite frustrating sometimes. He fights sleep tooth and nail. Last night RB took the girls to basketball leaving me with Buddy Boy. I noticed it got really quiet and looked off the couch to find this.

No pacifier, and hand curled around a toy remote control, his favorite.

It was too cute not to snap a picture. He actually slept really well last night too. He only woke up once to eat and slept in till 8am. Another nice surprise! He is just a cute little guy and we love him.

100th Day of School

To celebrate the 100th day of school, MJ got to decorate a shoe box float. Of course the only thing it had to have was 100 of something. So she chose Trix's. We still had to help with a lot of it but MJ got to make many of the big decisions. She cut the paper, and helped tape it down. She decided where the flowers were going and helped make them too. She had a lot of fun decorating her float. The sun and clouds were all her as well. RB found the dude to go with it and MJ happily agreed. I hope she has a good time with it today and this week at school! She did a great job making it!

New Musician

Buddy Boy is our newest musician in the family. He learned quickly and is so dang cute as he tries to listen to the horn. Love this little guy!
