Nothing is better than a new baby!

Our New LOVE!

Easter Sunday April 12, 2009

Ryan was so excited to get a Tie that matched his Daddy's!!  He loves to get ready for church every week.  His favorite thing is picking out Dads tie... 

 {he picks the same pink one every week and we have to talk him into something different} 

Baby Update...

I am so excited!! I will be induced on Tuesday the 14th of April... I don't really think I'll go into Labor before then. I am pretty uncomfortable at this point. I don't remember it being this bad with Ryan... maybe I'm just a bigger wuss. Not really sure. My doctor has been keeping his eye on our babies stomach. Ever since 20 weeks it has been a little on the larger side. Basically our baby might have a blockage in his stomach and he will need surgery or he could be perfectly fine. Last Monday we went to a specialist. We were hoping that the specialist would be able to tell us for sure what would happen, but all he could say was "you'll have to wait for him to be born". So we are just waiting and hoping that everything will be ok. We are having a Family Fast tomorrow. We are very thankful that we have such a great Family! It is hard to have faith when there are so many things that are uncertain. But I know that we will be taken care of. Even if he needs surgery everything will work out just fine. Wish us LUCK!!

Ryans Birthday Party

We had Ryans birthday Party today.  He turns two tomorrow!!  I can't believe it.

We were going to have his party in the Park but it was a little bit colder today, so we went to the church.  Ryan has an obsession with hoops and playing basketball, 

he had a great time playing today!

We are so thankful for our great Family!  We love you all so much. 

Thanks for sharing this great day with us!

Happy Valentines Day!!!

For Valentines this year I gave Ry his two favorite things put in one... Chap stick and Dr Pepper. He was so so so excited!! I'll try to get a picture of him rubbing it on his lips...

Ryan thinks he is part dog!!

This is Lizzy.  She is the Owens' dog.  Ryan has been interested in how she uses the bathroom and always wants to see her go pee outside in the grass.  He usually tells her good job and then tells her to come in for a treat.  

Now Ryan tells us that he has to go potty and he goes out in the grass and squats down.  He says he is going pee...  who knows if he really is or not!  But it's very funny to watch.

If I could only get him to be this excited about going  in the toilet.

Update...finally!!!

Congrats to Chris and Whit!!  Little Drake is so cute.  

We are so happy for you guys!!

Mom and Ryan January 24, 2009

  I don't know why it seems so hard for me to post new things on my blog.  Hopefully I will be able to make some better habits especially before the baby comes.  
I already have the nursery done...  It wasn't too hard because I used all the same stuff that I had with Ryan.  I'll have to post pictures later.   I have also been working on a baseball room for Ryan.  He is sleeping in a big boy bed now... (he is so excited about it too, if anyone comes over he wants to show off his bed) I thought it would be a lot harder but he stays in bed pretty good! YAY!  And he is finally off the bottle, he has been off for a few weeks now.  Now the challenge is to get rid of the bink...  any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
