It's a !


We are so excited. She's due on the 4th of July, but I'm sure hoping to go early like I have in the past. The pictures didn't print out as cute as they were on the screen but I'll try to explain. On the top photo baby is looking at you. I think her cheeks are just soooo cute and round I had to include this picture. It always amazes me how developed they are so early! Wow, that kick in the ribs is coming from a little person! The bottom picture made Larry, I, and even the techs giggle. On the bottom left of the picture you can see her head. I know it's hard to make out but the dark circle is her eye socket. By her chin she has her hands. What we thought was funny is that above her head is her feet. She's completely folded in half! She's our little gymnast. Her cute lil' bum is on the right!


As you can tell we are already falling in love with this new little one. Although I have to admit when a good friend of mine had her second last night and was teasing me about still having three more months to go I felt like teasing her back. Ha, ha, I can walk without pain... errr... well less pain than you. And ha, ha, I can sleep through the night. Well, at least with only one bathroom break. :) Shoot, maybe she had a point. But, I still have so much to do to get ready for this little one I don't feel jealous at all.


Lastly, I think we found a name for her. How does everyone like Raelynn? O.k. that was mostly just a rhetorical question. Keep your negative thoughts/comments to yourself, because we have been calling her Raelynn for a little while now and I think if we change it Ella will be totally confused. Besides, we already have cute little nicknames picked out for her. But, we are still a little iffy about the spelling so you can give your honest opinions about that. Do you like Raelyn with one "n" or Raelynn with two? Obviously I'm partial to two n's. But Larry was leaning towards one. Neither of us have strong opinions. I just want it easy for others to spell. So, if you heard the name how would you write it down.

Soccer





I was able to add pictures! It was fun going through them. Caden has a huge grin in every picture! He loves playing in the games. They just started last month but both Megan and Caden are doing great and improving each week. One of my favorite parts of being a Mom is watching them grow and learn. But, best of all they love playing and being on a team.

Ella is potty trained!

I can't believe she did it. I think I'm cursing myself for writting this but it's been several days since she has had an accident. I think I can safely say she did it! When that girl puts her mind to something she just does it! (I didn't include a picture with this one, although she is cute on her little potty!)

Larry got me a new lense for Valentine's Day (and Christmas and Mother's Day and my Birthday) I LOVE it! Here are a few pictures I took of the kids at the park with it.

Golf



Larry found some inexpensive golf clubs just the right size for the kids. The woman who was selling them even had two sets. One for Megan one for Caden. Juliana found a free junior clinic so they could learn how to play and practice. They love thier new sport.

Wow! We have finally entered the twenty first century!




O.k. So I was looking at a friend's blog, thinking of how dang cute it was and thought well... Larry started a blog for our pictures but it's not really a family blog. When I point that out he just tells me that I better do a family one. So, here is my start!
