AND THE VERDICT IS?!?!?!

So here is a picture of the new addition to our family. One of the pictures he pulled up we could see facial features and it was totally amazing!!

CAN YOU TELL???? HE might be a little perturbed with me posting this picture for the whole world to see, but OH WELL!! This is our second little boy! We are totally siked and I know one day Kyler will love having a little brother.

Mr. Independant!!

I can't believe that it has been a month since I posted last!! Our family has been very busy and I guess time has gotten away from me! So in the last month Kyler has decided that waiting for Breakfast is UNBEARABLE! I cannot cook fast enough for him! So I have decided to involve him the in process & the difference is AMAZING! So here is a picture of him making orange juice! He loved it. I wish I could have gotten a picture of him helping me make pancakes... I let him crack the eggs. I think only a couple pieces of the shell actually made it into the pancakes, and in big enough pieces I think I got them out, HOPEFULLY!! I wasn't quite ready for him I guess. He loves helping out and being a "big boy".
The next pictures are of Kyler and his buddy, Grayson, who I babysit twice a week. They are playing together pretty good, for most of the day. Today they were playing so good I couldn't help but get pictures! I should have gotten a video! They have this fascination with pulling the cushions off the couch and either jumping on them or playing on the couch without them! I was in the other room when I heard them both laughing histerically, and when I went to look Kyler was sliding off the couch backwards and Gray was just thought it was the funniest thing. Usually Ky would start to cry, but since Gray thought it was funny, it must have been... so there they were both just giggling! It was so cute! For a little update on our family... My sister, SueAnn, who has been trying to get pregnant for the last 8 years or so is also pregnant, on her own, which is a MIRACLE! She is Due in October, so we aren't too far apart. I am SOOO excited for their family!! Again it just proves that God is incharge and Miracles still happen!
Kyler is starting to talk quite a bit. He jabbers on about who knows what most of the day... either to us or to himself. He carries on quite the conversation. I love listening to it!
I am finally over the morning sickness & starting to feel good. I've actually popped out a little and I'm actually showing, even though I am only 18 weeks, which is a little weird. I've been feeling movement for a few weeks, which I LOVE! Andy didn't believe me until the baby kicked his elbow during a movie the other night! School is going pretty good, but I am very excited for May 4th to roll around when I will be done, for a time! We are patiently waiting to find out what we are having in a couple weeks! YAY!!

Weekend at the Cabin!!

Island Park is our winter "getaway" we escape to my grandparents cabin and stay for the weekend. They don't plow the roads to get there so we have to load all our stuff onto the snowmobiles or in the little sleigh and take several trips. As winter wears on and we get more and more snow it all piles up on the roof and every year we figure out a way to get it off! This year we got a wire and cut it down while sliding with it. It sounds like thunder inside the cabin and usually wakes any sleeping babies up (which happened twice this time!) But it is SO fun!


Here is a video of Kyler and Andy sliding off the roof of the cabin!
Ky wanted to play outside so bad... he kept bringing me his hat or trying to put it on himself... he looks so cute all dressed up!Ky's favorite person! They are best buds! And dad couldn't wait to take him for a ride!

SueAnn and Trent brought up their Wii and borrowed Guitar hero, that was fun! Especially watching dad play the guitar with his crazy hair and Brynly... she does so good!!! Here are some fun pictures!We also had to test everyone's age. Andy very proud of his 27, I guess I am a few years older, at 57!! lol! My mom was only 70!! She was a little upset by those numbers and didn't really want to play after that! lol! Next was the boxing tournament, husbands against wives... a little unfair I think! We even got videos! Which are pretty hilarious!
SueAnn and Trent duking it out! She didn't win! She looks very determined though! : )
Sorry, you're gonna have to crank your neck to watch this one... I couldn't figure out how to turn it!
Angie and Brady... Andy cut off their video after only 2 seconds! Sorry guys!

Next Mozart Maybe??

I changed my other mind!!

So a couple posts back I wrote about my new determination to go to school and get my LPN. I would be done next may with everything! It was going to be great!! I would finally have some sort of a degree, where if need be I could work and make enough to support our family. Our thoughts were, for me to finish school, go back to work and send Andy to school to get a degree, in something. HOWEVER, I have changed my mind, a little, I have to rewind a little to make sense. My little sister is in the LPN program here at EITC and loves it! She told me about a part-time program that they have, you only have to go to school two days a week... WOW! Not bad, 4 semesters 1 1/2 years and I would not only have time to spend with Kyler but I'd also have my degree. Sounded PERFECT for my situation. I went and talked to a counselor and found out that to get into the program I would only need 3 classes that were pretty easy. I signed up, paid my dues, filed out my FAFSA forms and in 1 week I was all signed up! It seemed like things were going very smoothly and I had this HUGE weight lifed off my shoulders. I'd been promising my dad that I would get my education & now I finally was fulfilling that promise! Well the same day that Andy had his Appendectomy I found out that I am pregnant. I was actually about 6 weeks along. HOLY COW! Now what am I going to do. How can I do it now?? I was so excited that I was pregnant, but now so confused at WHY everything worked out so perfectly & seemed so right. Well at my first doctor's appointment we found out that I am due on our anniversary, August 19, 2009, which is 9 days after school starts. Then we found out that they are discontinuing the part time program for 2009. CRAP! My plan was failing!! Not only would I have a brand new baby, but I would be in school every day, basically, from 8-5. How in the world could I sacrifice that time with my new baby for school? I know it can be done, and people do it all the time, but that time is very precious to me, not only that but breastfeeding would be definatly out of the question. So the decision has been made that I am going to wait a year to get into the LPN program. Which seems a lot better, with the situation. By that time the baby will be about 9 months old, hopefully when that time comes I won't have second thoughts. I have been so excited about finally getting done, but now we are on hold for a little longer. It has been 3 years since I was in school, so one more year won't kill me. Anyway, so we are very excited that we are going to be adding to our family, again. It seems like EVERYONE is pregnant, which is exciting!! Some people may not agree with me, but I think that it is very exciting. I am now 12 weeks, we got to listen to the heart beat on Monday, which i think is absolutely amazing. I have been SO sick, basically all day, it has made going to class a little more difficult than I thought, and having "pregnancy brain" isn't helping. But overall, it has been kindof fun being back in school!! So there is another somewhat boring update. lol!

New pictures

I took our old memory card in the get the pictures off and I had few cute ones that I hadn't posted yet!!
Very tired baby!! He actually did this twice in a row, falling asleep at lunch time! The first time he looked SO cute but I wanted to get him to bed before he wouldn't take a nap, then was kicking myself for not getting a picture... then he did it again the next day!! So that was the first thing I did.
He is getting so old, he has been eating with his silverware for awhile, but he is actually getting really good at it. We decided to let him sit at the table in his high chair and he has been a better eater, not making such a HUGE mess. I was very surprised!
I can't believe it has taken me this long, to get this picture... and it was the last one I got before the death of the camera. This is Grayson. I have been babysitting Tuesday's and Thursday's since the beginning of September. And this is the first and only picture I have of the two boys together. They play so good together... most of the time. Until one of them has a toy the other one thinks is theirs!! It is so fun to watch them play!!

SAD DAY!!

This actually happened a week or so ago but our camera is broken :( I took it in to see if it could be fixed and they told me that new cameras are not made to be repaired!! So that is my sad excuse for not having any cool pictures or updates!
