Oops, has it really been that long?

Where does the time go? I can't believe it has been soo long since I last blogged. I have so much to say and show you!

My pregnancy has been rough for the first trimester. I have been super tired and really sick. I do not like feeling nauseous all day long. However the baby is healthy and growing so that is what matters. I am thankful that I have been sick it has been my security blanket for me. They say that if you are sick with your pregnancy than you are carrying a healthy baby! I pray that we are! We are seeing a specialist in Wichita on Oct. 5Th. We are now 14 weeks and 2 days. I know the tracker is wrong but they just changed my due date to Feb. 27Th now. I have gained NO weight! Whoo hooo. I only gained 10 1/2 lbs. with Miles and hope to gain around the same again. I will keep you updated more often! Here is the baby's profile and one with a little wave. Look at those little fingers, how cute is that!! Oh and we have decided NOT to find out the sex of the baby. This will be a first for us. A friend told me that life doesn't give you many "good" surprises why not have one! I loved this, how true.

Here is my catch!

I could only download so many pics so here is Miles with his catch! A little baby catfish. Look at that cute little face (Miles not the fish :) He was sooo excited and proud about his fish.

Gone Fishin'

This past week we took the boys fishing after supper! It has been really nice in the evenings to do this new activity. The boys have been having lots of fun! Brian purchased a bucket of minnows as bait. Here are some pics of the big event! Miles caught a baby catfish. I enjoy relaxing on a blanket reading a book and listening to the bull frogs. When they start "talking" Owen always says, "Who is laughing at us?!"

Owen telling Miles about style

Owen: Hey mommy I am going to get dressed by myself, don't look.
He comes out with hands on his hips and says...
Owen: Mom do you like my style?
Mom: Yes I do you look fantastic!
Owen: It's for the ladies!!!
Mom: I just bust a gut, (the stuff that comes out of his mouth, oh my goodness!)

Miles: Mom do you like my style?
Mom: Yes Miles, you look fantastic too!
Owen: No! He doesn't look fancy. Miles if you want to look fancy you have to wear gray jeans(actually sweatpants) and white church shirt(collered button-down)

Boy, Boys, Boys

Staying cool indoors

The temperature has hit over 100 this entire week and it is way too hot to play outside. The boys seem to be getting bored with their toys and coloring books. So I found this Cookies and Creme pudding pops in the Kraft Food & Family magazine and had to try them out. The boys had such a good time and have really enjoyed these treats. They were super easy to make too!

As I was downstairs doing laundry today the boys had stripped their clothes off and were painting their lips in the bathroom with their treats. I snuck a picture before they saw me! This is the cutest pic, I love it.

I want to be a ......

mom says "builder" and Owen says no a firetruck guy! Oh these elaborate buildings are from Owen. He builds one at least every other day. When daddy comes home at night he shows him his design and then lifts his arms and drops it on the floor into pieces. They go flying EVERYWHERE!!!!!!! I enjoy watching him build and he is so intense about it. The tall building is a "Hotel for boys eating candy bars and lunch ables" and the other one is a "rocket"!

Daddy Duty Needed ASAP!!!!

Look I can handle most anything but if I see another one of these in my house I will be spending the night with one of you lucky readers!! I am not kidding. I saw 2 just yesterday. So this weekend is father's day and I am putting him to work. Isn't that awful of me. I can't keep walking around this house freaking out b/c I think one of these spiders is lurking! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKK.


DADDY THIS IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY!!
