Gymnastics!

Ethan has been goingto gymnastics once a week and loves it! One of his buddies, John Parker, had his 2nd Birthday party @ the gym so it was a good opportunity to get some pics of Ethan doing his thing. After the 1st of the year Ethan is moving up to big kid class!

Our Crazy Big Brother!

Ethan William being Ethan William!

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!

Mike got me a nice new DSLR camera so I took some pictures :) It is the best thing ever! I am still figuring it out but so happy we got it. It is going to be so fun taking good quality pics of the boys.

Ethan's First School Performance - Thanksgiving Feast

Ethan had his first school performance on Friday. The whole class froze in front of the big audience and forgot the words they all were all still super cute!!! We absolutely loved it.

Baby Evan Belly Pics! (more to come)

October 2010... One more update

We made a Haunted Ginger Bread House! Ok I made a Haunted Ginger Bread House because I am a control freak and the boys just let me do what I want.

Ethan has his first school pictures. He is so handsome!

We went to the pumpkin patch with his class. He got a sunflower and a pumpkin.

He is starting to have some pretty bad outbreaks of his HSP but he is going to be just fine. Once his immune system builds back up they are going to do the chemo treatment again.

I made this awesome sign for our guest room :)

Blogger Update!

So this update is really no update at all. With the pregnancy, work & school (preparing for baby), and life in general I have had no time to update the blog. I am really hoping to get to it very soon. Everyone here is doing awesome! We are so busy living life, I don't have time to blog about it (haha). Ethan is growing and staying pretty healthy. Mike has started the Kiowa course and is doing awesome. More updates to come so stay tuned :)

RC'ing

As most of you know Michael Loves his RCs! He build them, flies them, crashes them, and starts all over again. It is a fun hobby for him and Ethan & I enjoy seeing him fly. Recently Michael got an injury :( No big deal, all in the name of a good RC plane!

On a less graphic note... Our dog, Ace, and new kitty, Lucy, love each other. How many dogs will share their bone with a cat?!?

Bronco Bumpers

With E Dog & I in UT for a couple weeks Mike has been super busy working on his Bronco. He has built new front & rear bumpers. Keep in mind Mike does this all from scratch he bends the metal and welds it. Super talented!

June 2010

June has been a very busy month and I have been terrible about blogging. Here is an update!

Mike put the bed liner and roll cage in the Bronco!

Ethan got a kitty cat, Lucy!

Ethan got a bike!

I ran a 5k!

Ethan is going to his very first summer day camp!

Family Vacation - Orlando 2010

This month we went to Orlando, FL for our BIG family vacation. It was so much fun. We went to Sea World, Disney World, and had tons of fun at the pool. We are going back in August for a few days before Mike starts the OH-58 (Kiowa) course.

Best moment this month: Our first ultrasound. Super super awesome!

Movement: I think I feel it every now and then but might just be gas, hahahaha.

Cravings: Fruit and anything sweet. This week I have been loving Strawberry Limeaids from Sonic.
