We're Expecting!

Yeah!!! We can all hardly wait. While on vacation I found out that I'm prego and we are excited to say the least. Of course it doesn't come without worry (LOTS) and some reservations but we're keeping a close eye on things. I'm seeing a high risk Dr. in town and I'm lucky enough to get regular ultrasounds. HURRAY! And let me tell you, I thrive on those for comfort. We don't know the sex yet but will soon find out on the day before my B-day. I'm due March 19th, 09.

Our Summer Vacation

On our way to Ohio! It took about 9 hours and 2 plane's but the kids loved every minute... which meant they were very good!

Messages in the sand for daddy on the beach of Lake Erie.

Gage and Kaia chasing pigeon's in a courtyard outside the mall in downtown Cleveland. They were laughing so hard!

Taking turns on Grandpa's riding lawnmower in Kentucky.

Let's start the summer off right... right?

So summer break is here and so is family. With a group of 18 we decide to go to Slide Rock, it should blast! As our caravan of 3 head into the middle of nowhere, my suburban decides to loose acceleration. Luckily we've reached the top of the hill to be able to cost down to where, with more luck, there's an exit to pull off. As with think the problem is the battery, we send off 2 of our men to fetch one. Only to our dismay, 2 hours go by before we find out that it's not the battery. It ended up being the fuel pump. After 3 hours in the hot sun we're waiting for a tow and my husband to show up. So we send my sister and 2 sister's-in-law to town with all 8 children to swim at my sister-in-law's mom's house. Bless her for such an intrusion. As it turned out to be a blast of a different kind it was really a blessed day. Everyone was kind and patient as the hours pasted by. A lot of it had to do with Aunt Jamie's great imagination and taking the kids on a trek into the unexplored desert to find traces of alien's. Thank you everybody for your great efforts!
