Let's just say life has been busy since 12/7/09. Jacob is a wonderful baby boy that has added so much joy to our lives. We can't believe how fast the last 7 weeks have gone. Colin is a great big brother that loves Jacob very much and it is amazing to see how Jacob follows Colin's voice. More to come later, but here are a few pictures we took of Jacob at 6 weeks.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLvsTqfjOBny3-GIoKiOuUFxUw4vXClvxTxZYy8sC563BWEtKitbRHY4SCpMJ5EIFXz_kNQnBK14vcKLh2aPaBswySNu_5U2JsmUlgVTbg03JFHlqfqmjRkwUKmR97zYzqqrvcsC5IQXU/s1600-h/Jacob+6+Weeks.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLvsTqfjOBny3-GIoKiOuUFxUw4vXClvxTxZYy8sC563BWEtKitbRHY4SCpMJ5EIFXz_kNQnBK14vcKLh2aPaBswySNu_5U2JsmUlgVTbg03JFHlqfqmjRkwUKmR97zYzqqrvcsC5IQXU/s320/Jacob+6+Weeks.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430481793027798098" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTkftNAI9j89yc9BcQkhaEebfxnPg_NUY7Ol1Btxh9ZFzWdeTioBz5pPq64etim5uPd0xM3EU-gtpsZRoRZXd6afx8QBCbAIRk9AN6V4KRh6ZeyHynhcH7k6rUVscuvjCys76or4zPKiQ/s1600-h/IMGP0639.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTkftNAI9j89yc9BcQkhaEebfxnPg_NUY7Ol1Btxh9ZFzWdeTioBz5pPq64etim5uPd0xM3EU-gtpsZRoRZXd6afx8QBCbAIRk9AN6V4KRh6ZeyHynhcH7k6rUVscuvjCys76or4zPKiQ/s320/IMGP0639.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430481973546894242" border="0" /></a>Kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06979566423133267203noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834117809764086458.post-15347569400079978602009-11-20T22:54:00.009-06:002009-11-20T23:10:57.401-06:00Family PicturesBack in October we had new family pictures/maternity pictures taken. It was a lot of fun. There is a photographer in St. Michael that has been taking pictures at Colin's daycare the last few years and I have been so impressed with her pictures. I contacted her about doing the baby's pictures once baby arrives and she said with infant pictures she does a free maternity sitting. It was a lot of fun to have these taken. Something that will be a good keepsake for baby. Below are a few of my favorites.<br /><br />Baby update: I am now 36.5 weeks, yeah!! We made the 36 week mark. For those who didn't know I went into preterm labor at 32 weeks and have been on bed rest ever since. I will be on bed rest until baby decides to make an appearance or December 7th arrives, which is when my c-section is scheduled for. Personally, I'm ready for baby to arrive any day. Scott is pushing for the 38 week mark, so we'll see who wins this one:) Either way, I am happy we made it to 36 weeks for the health of the baby. Scott has been doing a wonderful job of taking care of Colin and I, managing all the household tasks and still working. Colin is also doing a great job. He loves to be Daddy's helper whenever Mommy needs anything and knows way more about contractions than most 3.5 years old probably do. As soon as we have baby news to share we will be sure to post something here. No more than 2 weeks from Monday and baby will be here! And no, we still don't know what the sex is. I think today's ultrasound was number 15 and I can honestly say we don't know. What we do know is baby is breathing on its own and has very chubby cheeks!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5ZaGmUgbexVpPdT8JJi-uGLR_wW7N1dUFN9RRHkg88_gHWMbQfsfYCUMVf9cbJ_DgTMuxMXpT-QwmxE2MMuC7-ABgFXpCKcbPsDdutPhQ_iGQTCG4hflRLADyz8dumpZQxDx0-G0jLp8/s1600/IMG_7198+blogger.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer;

No surprise to us with his love for farming and John Deere tractors.

So very different from Colin. Colin and Scott have both felt the baby move numerous times and Colin just loves to feel the baby move. He keeps asking why we can't take the baby out now. December seems so far away for him. We had our 20 week ultrasound back in July and decided not to find out the sex of the baby. Everything looked great and the baby was on the move during the ultrasound which was so great to see. So far, most everyone thinks it's a girl besides Colin and I, we think it's a boy, so we shall see in December. We are all anxiously awaiting the arrival of this little one. </div><div> </div><div>Enjoy these last few weeks of summer.

We started the night at the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Rainforest</span> Cafe. We had a great dinner and Colin loved the rainstorms. We then headed to the Park at <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">MOA</span> for rides. Colin loves rides!! He wasn't afraid of any of them. He first went on rides at the park about 1.5 years ago and has loved them since. This time, he even went down the log ride with Daddy and loved it! I think it took me until I was about 10 to try rides like that.

I dropped him off at 9:00 this morning and he'll be there until 12:00. He was so excited. He asked last night before bed if this was his last sleep before he could go to school in the morning. The preschool he will be attending this fall had a few days this summer that the kids could go and spend the morning playing, doing a craft and having lunch, so today was his day. When I said good-bye to him he could have cared less that I was leaving. I think Mommy was the only one sad about leaving. I still can't believe my little boy is old enough for preschool. I was so proud of him for being such a big boy and just heading right into the classroom to play with the other kids. I can't wait to go get him soon and hear all about it. He was so excited to bring his lunch to school. I think the only <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">disappointment</span> was last night at dinner when he said how excited he was to ride the school bus and we had to tell him that he wouldn't be riding a school bus for a few years.<br /><br /><div><div>Here are a few pictures I took of him before we left.</div><div></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1ivBkEBIJT5F4GQfsZa_DGbVIB1885nE-dqWwSgfsbtuTM7p2d04gKeOeZMv7Ozywl-0xmtFgZfWPhNPJ58CZMmRchIgAORWv_ukTiVV6wdRP5xOZHsYznqQ7kB8o-Wb2ZMwPb-StDAI/s1600-h/102_8140.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356119457618529586" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1ivBkEBIJT5F4GQfsZa_DGbVIB1885nE-dqWwSgfsbtuTM7p2d04gKeOeZMv7Ozywl-0xmtFgZfWPhNPJ58CZMmRchIgAORWv_ukTiVV6wdRP5xOZHsYznqQ7kB8o-Wb2ZMwPb-StDAI/s320/102_8140.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLiLlqcbUYgvqCWBvA7dD7WZyFoPFCbHKDZWG8NDs7FFg9EqBkbIiBHtCYAfFgExDcIuHZoRTYqpPjePys_2zYtDWWmV0ukyu2P4lvqiETCPWuazBNrY7LqIaJz4t45BljEws4uKI3bd8/s1600-h/102_8142.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356119560790916306" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLiLlqcbUYgvqCWBvA7dD7WZyFoPFCbHKDZWG8NDs7FFg9EqBkbIiBHtCYAfFgExDcIuHZoRTYqpPjePys_2zYtDWWmV0ukyu2P4lvqiETCPWuazBNrY7LqIaJz4t45BljEws4uKI3bd8/s320/102_8142.JPG" border="0" /></a></div></div>Kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06979566423133267203noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834117809764086458.post-68267734487018503952009-07-06T13:44:00.026-05:002009-07-06T14:34:35.414-05:002 Great Weekends!!<div><div><div><div><div><div><div>We've had a busy 2 weeks. 2 weekends ago we spent the weekend at the cabin with 2 of my cousins and there kids.

But, we are back. Not that there hasn't been a lot to share out in the last 2.5 months, I just wasn't finding the time to update the blog. So, rather than <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">recapping</span> the last 2.5 months, we are just going to go forward from here.<br /><div><div></div><div><br /></div><div>The biggest news.....We are expecting baby #2 in December!! We are all so very excited. Baby is expected to arrive on December 7<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">th</span> or 8<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">th</span>. I know Heather Hanson is <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">cheering</span> for December 7<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">th</span> to share a birthday with this little one. We'll just have to wait and see. We had an ultrasound on Wed. and wow, this one is a mover. Way more than Colin ever was for us on camera. We got some great shots and Colin was so excited to see his baby. He is so excited to be a Big Brother. He talks to the baby all the time, kisses my tummy, and is convinced it's a brother. And for those who are wondering, we didn't find out the sex and aren't sure if we will or not in July when we have our 20 week ultrasound. More to come!!<br /></div><div>Beyond the baby news we've really been enjoying spring and the beginning of summer. Even though the weather hasn't been the best, we are still enjoying the outdoors. We planted a garden on Memorial Weekend and Colin is really enjoying helping with the garden. He even has his own spot in the garden that he planted whic of course is growing the best. Go figure! Who knew dumping seeds, then layering on rocks, then dirt would produce such tall plants. Even Scott, who wasn't completely bought in on the idea, is really loving the garden. </div><div></div><div><br /></div><div>Last Sunday we joined our friends the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Brutger's</span> at the Saints game. The boys had a blast! The weather wasn't the best, but no rain, so we were fine. The game on Saturday was rained out so we got to see a double header. The boys made it through the middle of the second game, so that was great. For those who know Jackson and Colin, they are two peas in a pod. Mel and I just love watching the two of them together and see so many visions of years to come of these two growing up together. We are blessed to have such great friends!</div><div></div><div><br /></div><div>I'll end with a few pictures from the baseball game.</div><div> </div><div>And a promise...I hope to keep this more up to date going forward. </div><div> </div><div></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcPRSzUQ9WAHL9HCYr7hPnM0U0mC-pnLSJ7C020XZJEyLtrsKSeKYS1JR2GK6FIlI397tJn3gTSEQq0WzQ11zSkjnceGSbnllspcPYPhp6Yr5PWqcxLrQ3D_kVZy6VqUdgaRbhPwDTo2Q/s1600-h/100_7667.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346500066422895026" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcPRSzUQ9WAHL9HCYr7hPnM0U0mC-pnLSJ7C020XZJEyLtrsKSeKYS1JR2GK6FIlI397tJn3gTSEQq0WzQ11zSkjnceGSbnllspcPYPhp6Yr5PWqcxLrQ3D_kVZy6VqUdgaRbhPwDTo2Q/s320/100_7667.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq2qeuD0mR1vO6fgg7MspOvzW8QiUrIWDOB7rJhHZPQiacWj7zwobNsDjRGKZB1Wzsn7sfgY7O4EH81osFdX0SxCWrEniKhO1hIL4r2kJMvWbrsP7AyPw5SsvZe-UI-kcwurHO9w4xEfY/s1600-h/100_7671.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346500224181183234" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq2qeuD0mR1vO6fgg7MspOvzW8QiUrIWDOB7rJhHZPQiacWj7zwobNsDjRGKZB1Wzsn7sfgY7O4EH81osFdX0SxCWrEniKhO1hIL4r2kJMvWbrsP7AyPw5SsvZe-UI-kcwurHO9w4xEfY/s320/100_7671.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div><br /> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7Fda69vj_kMp1biM5z_nLUiMBLxhLHFkLLH1QxIVXvx9CMMFFE6YUSHjiV2Mak2clI1fLLELbTrZGycIyOYE9KOQdJukNHdVk4fH9hWaBLELcx6wKLo3YW5uLzu4nM2-feL48u3Sm8b0/s1600-h/100_7674.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346500372930149650" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7Fda69vj_kMp1biM5z_nLUiMBLxhLHFkLLH1QxIVXvx9CMMFFE6YUSHjiV2Mak2clI1fLLELbTrZGycIyOYE9KOQdJukNHdVk4fH9hWaBLELcx6wKLo3YW5uLzu4nM2-feL48u3Sm8b0/s320/100_7674.JPG" border="0" /></a></div></div>Kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06979566423133267203noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834117809764086458.post-25314827150851082572009-03-29T20:32:00.018-05:002009-03-29T21:49:04.728-05:003 years oldWe have a three year old as of last Sunday!

We had a celebration with everyone on Sunday (Colin's actual birthday) and opened a few presents.<br /><br />Here is Colin walking up to his new ride, the smile on his face says it all.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ9etzLwlK6NkVwSAiSaqYYLjNs9oAsTSRu-JhDmBLzYxpXC6_Omp-NMWt0GVcY_T6JXIslkLG82DROpeREFXeg8vS8juCKsIyttARdSxOUgusdlWghWBxuv96e5bdCUH1eiMXIGS2eWc/s1600-h/100_7149.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318790810860388850" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ9etzLwlK6NkVwSAiSaqYYLjNs9oAsTSRu-JhDmBLzYxpXC6_Omp-NMWt0GVcY_T6JXIslkLG82DROpeREFXeg8vS8juCKsIyttARdSxOUgusdlWghWBxuv96e5bdCUH1eiMXIGS2eWc/s320/100_7149.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />He was so excited to help Daddy put it together.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi577dddRLumeu_VMQo2V6QhdecUfV3oFG7dI0-NCI3bw2eWo6cDbwjska4Wic0WM4b0yX4hpzW4hcICnFuGLIL5lV_08v407VhPA2TNazhnTW95YovP1YDSKZz3u3hfQ2Xxjidgt6INtQ/s1600-h/100_7158.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318790943033930466" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi577dddRLumeu_VMQo2V6QhdecUfV3oFG7dI0-NCI3bw2eWo6cDbwjska4Wic0WM4b0yX4hpzW4hcICnFuGLIL5lV_08v407VhPA2TNazhnTW95YovP1YDSKZz3u3hfQ2Xxjidgt6INtQ/s320/100_7158.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWSvQLKYStr3Gu-nfeklc51S92l9ik47jCqV1-_9P7fLC8HVgrjK9CCh_RxrP7lSY95eaTjc_t1DnSC0lLVFINzpOAcRLwE1_Dxvjf9aaKHO8mu1_cIROZArzz62lWOiyFZt60htpLbx4/s1600-h/100_7161.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318791336515807570" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWSvQLKYStr3Gu-nfeklc51S92l9ik47jCqV1-_9P7fLC8HVgrjK9CCh_RxrP7lSY95eaTjc_t1DnSC0lLVFINzpOAcRLwE1_Dxvjf9aaKHO8mu1_cIROZArzz62lWOiyFZt60htpLbx4/s320/100_7161.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Colin and Brian taking a bath together Sat. night.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidEaAdfSHkBhWcS0Gg2ZkKk0IZ1s_PQzUZd42tSAEvGBA8Dbd6LnkZP1zMDqTZu96lFfXoXOJnPNZQQFv5v9rPGbMRfDMLMYqeCd3lgJtaB2GJCvueZBGAKinkq7WQxmHlTGjIXq17UuE/s1600-h/100_7197.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318791120667083218" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidEaAdfSHkBhWcS0Gg2ZkKk0IZ1s_PQzUZd42tSAEvGBA8Dbd6LnkZP1zMDqTZu96lFfXoXOJnPNZQQFv5v9rPGbMRfDMLMYqeCd3lgJtaB2GJCvueZBGAKinkq7WQxmHlTGjIXq17UuE/s320/100_7197.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Blowing out his candles.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAbVIe1T2GckXp2nSDDxuJs1kvOBaRfgU0nRVdRr0GV_ARpWc2X4LYaTZJDxKODAdB_tjjLCAvUwrIGHHBP4Aviu-Wa-w1SVBYVKEhTvxueQUoFkgwzFzVI9MKs0A_U74Fcf0FDlgqJ8o/s1600-h/100_7221.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318791544902914242" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAbVIe1T2GckXp2nSDDxuJs1kvOBaRfgU0nRVdRr0GV_ARpWc2X4LYaTZJDxKODAdB_tjjLCAvUwrIGHHBP4Aviu-Wa-w1SVBYVKEhTvxueQUoFkgwzFzVI9MKs0A_U74Fcf0FDlgqJ8o/s320/100_7221.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Auntie, Uncle, Brian and Colin<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJCAKW8mjHVfFKlefGFiaVQJfU0s0OdLpg_Wdos9iZANp76FxLjRa_cJQM_itV8Zt4KooOHlYTUZhCQGS51BjIzeH_-BrnnrikOYNwYmuNSF1PAcN9GSs-X8iujQP14gmEb_1njFloEdU/s1600-h/100_7235.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318791691908892802" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJCAKW8mjHVfFKlefGFiaVQJfU0s0OdLpg_Wdos9iZANp76FxLjRa_cJQM_itV8Zt4KooOHlYTUZhCQGS51BjIzeH_-BrnnrikOYNwYmuNSF1PAcN9GSs-X8iujQP14gmEb_1njFloEdU/s320/100_7235.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>We headed back on Monday and had Colin's three year doctor's appointment on Tuesday morning.

When we got home from the movie Colin's friends Vanessa and Lance across the street where out so Colin ran over to play. He took both kids for a ride in the Arctic Cat and Colin and Vanessa went biking together.

We headed to the airport for a 10:50 am flight. 30 minutes before departure they announced a mechanical issue with the plane so we asked for a Sunday flight which we got. So we called Nanny and Papa and they came back to get us and we were back for another day at the pool. Saturday night we hit the Pavilion for a car show and then had a nice pizza dinner.</div><div> </div><div>Sunday- Our flight wasn't until 3:15 so we enjoyed the morning at the pool and then headed to the airport for our flight back.

What a neat place. The train club has created a replica of downtown in the 50's and 60's with numerous trains running through. Colin really enjoyed himself. It was so much fun to see all of the trains running and all the detailed work that went into creating the model. I would highly recommend going to see it, especially if your little ones like trains. They also had 2 Thomas the Train tables set-up for the kids to play with, that Colin of course loved playing with.<br /><br /><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Gramma</span> had just come back earlier in the week from California and had gone to Disneyland and bought Colin a train hat that he wore all day and even had to go to sleep with last night.<br /><div><div><div><div><div><div><div></div><br /><div>Here are a few pictures of our day.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbNQjefah8_tZmOo_ICjlsx5NUuxnVGKebq1AGKQnwA-x7t3hqeaeP4n0a3oyj6DZsM4U8Obo9NqhF57PPLzcLBZ3jmRUbzBEhA5QMc21u039ET9baYqtovsFKqRAz11xFKO3t5_4aIL0/s1600-h/100_6788.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306036902492970386" style="WIDTH: 320px;

He did wonderful!!! We've been talking about it for a while now and at first he was not excited about the idea of going to the dentist. But after reading many books about going to the dentist he was a perfect patient. We timed his appointment with Scott's so he was able to watch Daddy getting his teeth cleaned before getting his. A little while into Scott's cleaning Colin said he was ready to have his teeth cleaned so I headed over to the chair with him. He loved the chair and learning about all the tools. He said his favorite part was the flavors. Leave it to Colin to ask half way through the cleaning if he could try another flavor. So he started with bubble gum and then moved on to chocolate. For his fluoride treatment he chose marshmallow. Sara, the dental assistant, was so good with him. She did a great job explaining everything to him before doing anything. What a big boy! We were very proud of him. Hopefully the second appointment in August will go just as smooth. <div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiftrOn63505-72PRLvjt1hSN9xvpzkVgzRoFDbMORVgIs9e-jh2FzU2SdVydEZrEf8i5EnTpgyxKWpo0zgMChL4DJP0ubdyWZRA3s_rMDlUWTsGQtViopSzu3ny95vpGC_BiYcBZh_rFc/s1600-h/100_6775.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304226899055159474" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiftrOn63505-72PRLvjt1hSN9xvpzkVgzRoFDbMORVgIs9e-jh2FzU2SdVydEZrEf8i5EnTpgyxKWpo0zgMChL4DJP0ubdyWZRA3s_rMDlUWTsGQtViopSzu3ny95vpGC_BiYcBZh_rFc/s320/100_6775.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEircwNVUdAlBu_CXnGVgCOYMZL2SSRr7yInW1P6i-kwamsrMUaYPAggquqFKJLyTqYnN_9K237GVmArVdBNJp2-zH_nZFSIKt1PCZNL-VkpeeELpvYwZdscFgXUYrHptxGBCJFIjLlnog0/s1600-h/100_6776.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304226964289964738" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEircwNVUdAlBu_CXnGVgCOYMZL2SSRr7yInW1P6i-kwamsrMUaYPAggquqFKJLyTqYnN_9K237GVmArVdBNJp2-zH_nZFSIKt1PCZNL-VkpeeELpvYwZdscFgXUYrHptxGBCJFIjLlnog0/s320/100_6776.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn_A0X9Eta9d3uVNuF6-k_LyW6MnqfUMalVDHO3jmQjmAO9sIN7dej4WWv-RYwoxsvc_Z7wEi48OHKZ9lvX3odOZo5r_izj7MVBVmP2krE9czs5m80h2BB54vGW3iMQFPwrCFNnfcGPOM/s1600-h/100_6778.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304227057131032962" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn_A0X9Eta9d3uVNuF6-k_LyW6MnqfUMalVDHO3jmQjmAO9sIN7dej4WWv-RYwoxsvc_Z7wEi48OHKZ9lvX3odOZo5r_izj7MVBVmP2krE9czs5m80h2BB54vGW3iMQFPwrCFNnfcGPOM/s320/100_6778.JPG" border="0" /></a></div>Kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06979566423133267203noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834117809764086458.post-4411283503770006382009-02-16T13:04:00.014-06:002009-02-16T13:49:03.601-06:00Valentine's Weekend at the CabinHope everyone had a great Valentine's weekend. We did! We were at the cabin with Nanny and Papa. The weather was great and we spent a lot of time outdoors. <div><div><div></div><div>Friday on the way up we had a crazy idea to pull into the Best Buy in <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Brainerd</span> and see if they happened to have a <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Wii</span>. Well, they did, so we bought one. We pretty much spent every free minute playing it this weekend. And guess who happened to be really good at it? My mom! She was an amazing bowler. She even beat my dad, Scott and I a few times. So that was a fun way to start the weekend off.</div><br /><div>Saturday morning we celebrated Valentine's Day with everyone and of course Colin got a few gifts. My parents gave him a new pair of Speed McQueen crocks which he <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">literally</span> slept in Saturday night. He loves them! I'm sure they will be the only thing he will want to wear in Arizona in a few weeks. </div><br /><p>We gave Colin a robot that he is having so much fun playing with. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi92tXftOcNfZeOWGOZ9VgDSsTvSrSHCz7oNktYHiAFG_tOX-7s1RNKbhauFQ9RZMJpXbMUhZH_jb79CE1AwcfSOartWsolVWW_T73fSCHI0JUssxHkocPwRXpBlJ19VcbN3JNVm4-9fB4/s1600-h/100_6692.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303476818427375362" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi92tXftOcNfZeOWGOZ9VgDSsTvSrSHCz7oNktYHiAFG_tOX-7s1RNKbhauFQ9RZMJpXbMUhZH_jb79CE1AwcfSOartWsolVWW_T73fSCHI0JUssxHkocPwRXpBlJ19VcbN3JNVm4-9fB4/s320/100_6692.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /></p><p>Here are the crocks!</p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQmNKnzQ7CdyZ8wNhX7LeQ3oZBwxyGI_uXG3obh7Sh5q8qJhXho0Q8QjNYgvR2nmm42F3LVwbfGJLBXPXE0eqDPL6H3V0Czl0ZVBQUiYDsAUtV-qYfbI5H-Q716_s4U5_-pEmcTUswZFY/s1600-h/100_6701.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303477082037205650" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQmNKnzQ7CdyZ8wNhX7LeQ3oZBwxyGI_uXG3obh7Sh5q8qJhXho0Q8QjNYgvR2nmm42F3LVwbfGJLBXPXE0eqDPL6H3V0Czl0ZVBQUiYDsAUtV-qYfbI5H-Q716_s4U5_-pEmcTUswZFY/s320/100_6701.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /></p><br /><div>After our little party we all got bundled up and went into <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Nisswa</span> for the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Nisswa</span> Days parade.

Colin went sledding about 100 times down the hill. Daddy thought he was ready for the big hill, which made me a little nervous, but of course Colin loved it and wanted to keep going down it. After sledding we took Colin for a sled ride on the lake out to the island and walked around. The weather was just beautiful and we all had a good time.</div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRM1G5P_3U3duecC5uNy4yEpj4vmdeob2vRLHmtF1LjE5xYtBFSouvsc1xNqk_EON754-GxVah8rqK-U4kWCJokEhK1S3xmRFG8TLqTZkLw77IKRRL5hV-1oy-_U6cs2M4MZ_bu8-YI-o/s1600-h/100_6734.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303478659406006050" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRM1G5P_3U3duecC5uNy4yEpj4vmdeob2vRLHmtF1LjE5xYtBFSouvsc1xNqk_EON754-GxVah8rqK-U4kWCJokEhK1S3xmRFG8TLqTZkLw77IKRRL5hV-1oy-_U6cs2M4MZ_bu8-YI-o/s320/100_6734.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0ylhYQ2faE20q07h8ymLYN3EYPLyxBC1CxNuOqGdEHYYIIzBxGt5eRv8NHXyxCb0VbKolMzC48lPAgbT53pjK9inSARhbHIOGEz0Eq6arNgpmVURNJXO2XhNP3nBn6lRQks2ai1NQBqU/s1600-h/100_6740.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303479193032388002" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0ylhYQ2faE20q07h8ymLYN3EYPLyxBC1CxNuOqGdEHYYIIzBxGt5eRv8NHXyxCb0VbKolMzC48lPAgbT53pjK9inSARhbHIOGEz0Eq6arNgpmVURNJXO2XhNP3nBn6lRQks2ai1NQBqU/s320/100_6740.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div></div><div>And of course, we can't forget Buster.

I am, but my boys sure aren't. It's put a quick halt on any snowmobiling for now. Colin keeps asking "Why does the snow have to leave Mommy? I want it to come back." Secretly, I could live without, but for them hopefully we will have some more snow soon so they can get a little snowmobiling in before spring.<br /><br />I haven't posted in a while because life has been a little busy. Nothing specific, just the regular day to day activities. So, here is a quick look at what has been going on since mid January.<br /><br />A few weeks ago we officially moved Colin into his big boy bed. Tears from mom, but he loves it. My little boy is once again showing me how big he is getting each day. He has done wonderful in it. He doesn't get out until he calls for us to come get him which is great. And for the most part has been sleeping through the night. A few nights he has woke up with a scared cry, I think he was just confused as to where he was. His room is no where near done, but that's ok. We moved him into what was the toy room and have left the nursery as is for now. Next Friday is painting day and Nanny is working on a quilt for him. So hopefully by his birthday we will have a completed room for him. Here is a picture of him from the first night. We started with the matress on the floor and are now ready to add the box spring and frame this weekend. I'll post more pictures once his baseball room is done.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYotbfDeqKnD1kp5CKGPFjBwFfaqcSZ6W8Tx5Nl58G32FmCBjvl5C5k8fD07CXfxZz9m36xYsvgtQCZ5PserGmK3is5wdv4-exbUuoIRz1rlJZ6Lmabk0z6JF4y1e5qTaF5vOBCnNS1NE/s1600-h/100_6638.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5302309836987176018" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYotbfDeqKnD1kp5CKGPFjBwFfaqcSZ6W8Tx5Nl58G32FmCBjvl5C5k8fD07CXfxZz9m36xYsvgtQCZ5PserGmK3is5wdv4-exbUuoIRz1rlJZ6Lmabk0z6JF4y1e5qTaF5vOBCnNS1NE/s320/100_6638.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><em>He looked so big in his crib, and now he looks so little in his bed!</em><br /><br />Next was Papa's (my dad) 60th birthday.

Colin went on his first long ride with us on the sled. For the most part he did really well. We were gone for about 2 hours. It was fun to finally have a family ride with all of us! We had so much fun being with Brian (of course!)! He just keeps getting cuter each time we see him. It is so fun to watch Colin and Brian together. Brian follows Colin's voice and is always watching him and Colin just loves his cousin. He is so cute when he is playing and talking with him. Melissa and I can't wait for the days when the boys are running around together. Here are the boys together. Surprising, but I didn't really take many pictures that weekend!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmli7lmnUtWpQWFImC_6x-rL8CeZJezwbuIRGF1ouR_CY2G1YakCOByRfFflN6bJkYPtYoymuSjCMF27JOc-jMJoeMxGkylXFwd9A8-1LCeE1HxRomalHRn5F4pbn8CWsMt74lDdmW_cA/s1600-h/100_6649.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5302311463252000354" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmli7lmnUtWpQWFImC_6x-rL8CeZJezwbuIRGF1ouR_CY2G1YakCOByRfFflN6bJkYPtYoymuSjCMF27JOc-jMJoeMxGkylXFwd9A8-1LCeE1HxRomalHRn5F4pbn8CWsMt74lDdmW_cA/s320/100_6649.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />That's all for now.

It was great. Nanny, Papa, Gramma, Scott and I were all there to see the excitement in Colin's eyes. It was so much fun. Colin said his favorite part was all the dancing. The story line was really cute and Colin sat and watched the show so intensely while eat ting his popcorn, it was so cute. And of course there were times when he got up and showed us his great dancing moves. He's quite the dancer! Here are a few pictures from the night.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjw86PBpG-UP_24jZhSzc-HJ9EaB5UE_tBf8JISA8MGbXGLyzTnzayz6SoO3zPQT_BOeKPBk17hIjdQy5Cv1gYidE0eS86yHlXIYhfLgRbHj6dUzeDLrN-0Vqrj218dZD4iaG54SR2YqY/s1600-h/100_6462.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5291578600925041186" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjw86PBpG-UP_24jZhSzc-HJ9EaB5UE_tBf8JISA8MGbXGLyzTnzayz6SoO3zPQT_BOeKPBk17hIjdQy5Cv1gYidE0eS86yHlXIYhfLgRbHj6dUzeDLrN-0Vqrj218dZD4iaG54SR2YqY/s320/100_6462.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />Colin's prize purchase, a $15 flashlight, crazy price, but his smile was worth it!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcUX6X8HwXOmk96jl_7KyLkSIkqr76pPO0FOvM4YIMp_edhSuTDnQ19GVjaY9Y51e6dZq5KrYxxVpD8S3ZhX6ajCC1MUN5xcw2MWKoswjPdMaJ0OgzPTNBAIdg7LBG2XJlIKuyZwEXuhg/s1600-h/100_6477.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5291578747716941186" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcUX6X8HwXOmk96jl_7KyLkSIkqr76pPO0FOvM4YIMp_edhSuTDnQ19GVjaY9Y51e6dZq5KrYxxVpD8S3ZhX6ajCC1MUN5xcw2MWKoswjPdMaJ0OgzPTNBAIdg7LBG2XJlIKuyZwEXuhg/s320/100_6477.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpJV3W5EgXSHuU8Tca14U83e0W4YDSFHteu6SLv5hOkhApE6fnJztbMGBYVO8DkdPAencNCMvluFDL9gK5NYX9jItcKF-FYHy6M7UQbRWmqqKoRzXnir1RhotEreIdv7AhObdSmpsL2G4/s1600-h/100_6501.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5291578913591199170" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpJV3W5EgXSHuU8Tca14U83e0W4YDSFHteu6SLv5hOkhApE6fnJztbMGBYVO8DkdPAencNCMvluFDL9gK5NYX9jItcKF-FYHy6M7UQbRWmqqKoRzXnir1RhotEreIdv7AhObdSmpsL2G4/s320/100_6501.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK2swUSfJR5fJoNg0zYfbxiOCro-pqxz9ETR0o0KZlvFYFPn7B9T0eW3G0retTh165x9eLTPdlGTbh9bHcVIrQs7FqIyOPod6iYBJvi4jkjxVsOnMS4T93PGfREcGZg6WSti7y_0nKiY8/s1600-h/100_6507.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5291579094373954930" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK2swUSfJR5fJoNg0zYfbxiOCro-pqxz9ETR0o0KZlvFYFPn7B9T0eW3G0retTh165x9eLTPdlGTbh9bHcVIrQs7FqIyOPod6iYBJvi4jkjxVsOnMS4T93PGfREcGZg6WSti7y_0nKiY8/s320/100_6507.JPG" border="0" /></a>Kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06979566423133267203noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834117809764086458.post-83066644619211207362009-01-15T11:38:00.001-06:002009-01-15T11:42:29.300-06:00PreschoolWow, I can't believe it, but we signed Colin up for Preschool this week. He will be going 2 days a week during the school year next year on Monday's and Wednesday's. I still can't believe that my baby is old enough to be going to preschool. He will be going to Children's Country Preschool at our church in Hanover. Colin is so excited. When I told him I had signed him up he asked if he was going now. He is so ready for it. And hopefully his friend Carson from across the street will be in the same class as Colin. They will have so much fun together.Kellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06979566423133267203noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834117809764086458.post-47548125520639248692009-01-05T12:50:00.007-06:002009-01-05T13:01:41.213-06:00Snow, Snow, SnowThis past weekend we were at my parent's cabin. We headed up on Friday for a weekend of fun in the snow and snowmobiling. Auntie Stacy and Joe joined us as well. There was plenty of snow for all of us to have fun and get a lot of riding in. We officially took our first family ride with Colin. He loved it! He rides with Scott on his sled and doesn't even mind his helmet. I can tell my little boy is really growing up. It seemed like it would be forever when he was born that all 3 of us would be able to go riding together. What fun! Here are a few pictures.<br /><br /><br />Daddy and Colin riding Colin's sled on the lake. Or as Colin said "We are walking on the pool."<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6xhHcYKrl5bPIjSzzwkk5ab3Gzwoo-UArxfoJDMgQeSy8SiQueqHq8PLLPrixNaiM0ZM_22lOZPH2E_bMJQpMH_7eAjYOTxe8YThNxjMNjsJokOQjq7PgzktaaSz_0y6rp4imGTkjZWY/s1600-h/100_6448.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5287885729446834050" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6xhHcYKrl5bPIjSzzwkk5ab3Gzwoo-UArxfoJDMgQeSy8SiQueqHq8PLLPrixNaiM0ZM_22lOZPH2E_bMJQpMH_7eAjYOTxe8YThNxjMNjsJokOQjq7PgzktaaSz_0y6rp4imGTkjZWY/s320/100_6448.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />We stopped to warm up at a coffee shop and had something to drink and a cookie.

What a magical year it was this year for our family. Colin added such a joy to our Christmas this year as he has done each year. This year was even more exciting to see the joy and magic of the season through his eyes. As he grows older and really begins to know the true meaning of Christmas ("It's Jesus' birthday" as he tells us) and to see the excitement of Santa Clause he is such a light in our lives. Here is a look at our week of Christmas and a few pictures of our trip up to Hurley after Christmas Day for the weekend.<br /><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div></div><div><br /></div><div>We started our celebrations at <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Gramma</span> and Grandpa's house on Sunday.</div><div></div><div><br /></div><div>Our Cutie!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIBDJYuhXScolfWKJ5a-X9y7bQ16s-owUjqsoWTGrlkJ-6n4r19RhqYCp_e7KJw5r1GJ4z8Vmeqg1_Ag8pPey20AN6jy9EfKYDZNp_nTmJ6QryDZUd51agbjrtxfSCO4AtkplsmMaEkzU/s1600-h/100_6043.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286035178219261522" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIBDJYuhXScolfWKJ5a-X9y7bQ16s-owUjqsoWTGrlkJ-6n4r19RhqYCp_e7KJw5r1GJ4z8Vmeqg1_Ag8pPey20AN6jy9EfKYDZNp_nTmJ6QryDZUd51agbjrtxfSCO4AtkplsmMaEkzU/s320/100_6043.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Daddy got the first gift of the night, this is also his 30<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">th</span> Birthday gift from Mommy and Colin.
