Florida Work Trip

Mommy got to go on a trip for work to Florida. What a great time for a work trip as it was cold and icky back home. Here's a few pictures of the beautiful beach, our group and going on an alligator tour.

















 Love the guy in the background of this :-) Photo bomb

 Here's the view of the snow, landing back home :-(

Finishing Up the 2nd Trimester

The second trimester went well. Nothing too exciting happened, it was a lot different with this pregnancy than the first because of having a 2 year old running around as well. Guess it meant not as much time to think of all things happening in my belly. We are getting really excited for our new little one to join our family!

  • First felt some baby flutters (that I knew were baby) at 17 weeks
  • Stronger kicks came at about 21 weeks and more frequent
  • Now kicking all the time and much harder than Leah ever did
  • Morning sickness ended at 19 weeks - Yippee!!!
  • Cravings have been pretty typical of pregnant people - pickles and ice cream - but no, not together :-)
  • Went on first vacation (via belly) to Ft. Myers, FL
  • Had ultrasound on January 9th and fount out you are a GIRL!
  • Went to first concert on January 11 - Pink
  • Went to 2nd concert on February 7 - Justin Timberlake (I seem to go to a lot of concerts when I'm pregnant
  • All and all, a pretty smooth, easy pregnancy thus far

And now we continue our countdown to the 3rd trimester anxiously awaiting your arrival!

Swimming in the Cities

Following the party, we got some time to go to the MOA, Ikea, eat out at P.F. Changs and do some swimming in the cities. It was a great weekend of fun activities.










Such a goofball

Celebrating Avery Turning 2!

A very special little princess turned 2 years old! We can't believe how fast the time has gone. We loved being able to spend the day with you. It was a perfect princess party... Happy Birthday Avery! We love you!


We couldn't believe the snow pile that was in front of the house when we drove up... yuck

More Gymnastics

Best parts of gymnastics:
- Sliding down the slide into the foam pit
- Getting lots of stamps
- Doing "Ta Da's"
- Swinging on the bars
- Playing with the balls, hoops or whatever they bring out at the end of the session
- Running around like a crazy little girl
