There's a baby in there!

Today I went in for my firt Doctor's appointment and ultrasound. We've been wondering about the due date since my cycle has been alot longer since I've had Hayden. We've been waiting for the first ultrasound so we could know when to expect the baby to come and Bob is leaving in February for a four month deployment. We found today that I'm actually two weeks less along than we thought. I'm not due until August 10th. So I'm only 7 weeks along instead of almost 10. Crazy! Even though I'll have to be pregnant 2 weeks longer than I thought it will all work out for Bob getting home for the birth.

Snow day!

Today the kids had fun playing in the snow. Even though this was Hayden's first experience with snow he was unimpressed.

Baby #6 is on the way!

We have another baby on the way. It was a surprise but not unplanned. I'm still a bit in shock over it, so it hasn't registered in my brain yet that I'm actually having another baby. Hayden is only a year old and seems little to me still. I wasn't going to say anything so soon but since Bob is getting ready to go on another deployment I'm going to need all the support I can get from family and friends. We're excited and pray for a healthy baby.

Thanksgiving!

Hayden's obsession with the toilet paper

Hayden just can't help himself when it comes to the toilet paper in this house. He has to unroll it all. It's time to invest in toilet paper roll locks!

14th Anniversary

Yesterday Bob and I celebrated our 14th anniversary. We were both amazed that we have made it this far and we haven't killed each other yet. Seriously!!

My day started out with a fun treasure hunt to find a gift from him. After several clues and going from one end of the house to the other I found some candy and a stuffed bear.

Later that evening we took a stroll downtown and visited the antique store. I love looking at antiques and I've been wanting to go in the shop since we moved here two years ago!! Antiques and kids do not go together and since I always have the kids with me there was no way I was ever going to get to go in there. So...last night we went in and even though it's not Bob's thing he did it for me. That made it all the more special.

We then drove to La Conner, a little town neither of us had ever been to. We had dinner at a restaurant that had the most amazing clam chowder and seafood. We'll be going back there again. We also found out that La Conner has several antique shops! Whoohoo! All the more reason to go back again. Haha!

He also gave me a new watch as a gift since I never know what time it is and I never carry around my cell phone. I'm always asking "what time is it?" because I buy cheap walmart watches that stop working way too soon. When I opened it he said, " This not a walmart watch." We had a great night together. We don't go out very often so it was a real treat. It was the best night we've had together in a long time.

Family Pictures

My extremely talented friend, Debbie took our family pictures for us. I'm loving how they turned out. Enjoy!!

My little scarecrow

I took this picture prior to halloween. He has a little crow on top of his hat.

This was taken halloween night. He sure is a cutie!

My little goblins!

Bob was the cat in the hat. Hayden was a scarecrow that didn't want to wear his hat.

Jacob was a pirate...arrrgg!

Kyle was Indiana Jones.

Bailey was a witch.

Cassidy was a vampire. Apparently she made more vampires while at the trunk or treat party.
