Sheri's Bday- Take 2

It was Sheri's second birthday party tonight and at this one the boys got to open presents. They were more excited to help Sheri than they are for their own gifts!

She got a new suitcase to take to Las Vegas. The boys were testing it out, seeing if they can sneak along with her.

Happy Birthday Sheri! We love you.

Sheri's Birthday

It was Sheri's real birthday today, and although we're celebrating her again tomorrow, we still went out to eat at Happy Joe's tonight. Out of the big prize cabinet, Hudson picked these eyeball glasses!

And Paxton devoured Sheri's birthday sundae! Right down to the last melted drop.

Girl in 3D

With every baby, we've taken the opportunity to have a 3D/4D ultrasound done. It's so fun to picture what our baby-to-be is going to look like. And this baby girl, just like our boys, is beautiful. One difference, the technician told us she already has hair! Seeing both of the boys were pretty much bald at birth, I'll be surprised to see if this is true. And if it is, it'll make me a believer of the old wive's tale that baby having hair causes Mommy heartburn, because I have it everyday all day!

She was all curled up, with hands AND feet up by her face.
Here, if you can see, her mouth is open a little bit.

And this was Baby Girl's entourage! We packed 10 guests into that room. Thank you all for coming. It means so much that you are all just as excited as we are.

And this is our lucky girl's closet full of clothes already! Grandma sure is good as spoiling her grandkids!

The Wii

At the ripe old age of 3, Hudson has become addicted to the Wii. We've had to put some restrictions on how many nights a week he can play, and for how long. He starts to get a stiff neck and we literally have to pick him up and put him on a chair. He thinks MarioKart is the greatest thing ever! He coaxed Hunter into playing with him tonight.

He really concentrates with that tongue hanging out!

bathtime fun

28 weeks

We're in the 28th week, and had a doctor appointment this afternoon. Baby girl is right on track and we scheduled the c-section for May 8th. Still growing.....everywhere! I wanted to just post the picture below, without my big fat face, but Jamie said that was dumb of me so you get both. Chubby cheeks and all!

TV and Games

It's starting already....ignoring Mom's yelling that supper is ready. One boy in the toy room watching Mickey Mouse and the other......

in the living room playing Mario Kart on the Wii (sitting on the new chair we got for baby's room).
After a forced dinner, Hudson went right back to his video game, so Mommy had a new baking partner.

This one enjoyed the cake batter just as much!

And they both came back to sprinkle.

Thanks for visiting Amy!

Amy came down this weekend for a girls night out and stayed at our house. The boys took advantage of playing with her, and even got her to watch Mickey Mouse in the toy room.

They both tried on her "thigh high" boots.
And she wrapped Paxton up in her scarf that he was a bit obsessed with.

Thanks for staying with us Amy! The boys are still checking if you're sleeping in the basement.

Trays

Having lunch on the new activity trays Grandma got them.

Ice fishing- but not for real....

Daddy was getting his ice fishing gear ready and the boys had fun playing around inside the house.

Hudson went with Daddy to pick up some minnows.

a BIG Valentine's Day post...

We celebrated a lot of Valentine's today, starting with the boys wearing their V-day shirts to daycare and bringing treats for the party. When we got home they opened their gifts from Mom and Dad. Hudson got pop beads to make critters and animals, and a police car.

Another pair of sunglasses for Paxton because he loves them!
And a vacuum because he's obsessed with vacuuming!

These were the Valentines they made for Mom and Dad at daycare.

Then we went out for supper and had some fun while waiting for our food.

After that, Pax had his first night of ECFE. He brought Brenley a flower, making him the sweetest boy in class. And she was proud of her flower.

Pax and his sweetheart.

My Valentines, screaming "Cheese!!" at the top of their lungs!And thank you to Daddy, the boys, and baby girl for the flowers for Mommy!

Happy Valentine's Day 2012

Give a boy a box......

V-day for the boys

It was Valentine's Day on Saturday when the boys were given gifts from their godmothers. Paxton got a sniffly, sneezing Elmo, and everytime he sneezes Pax says, "Bless You".

And Hudsy got this huge turtle pillow/ball from Maddi.....
Which he took a snooze on later in the evening.

Thanks again to the best godmothers in the whole wide world!

mornings with dad

Jamie has been home in the mornings this week, therefore has allowed the boys (and himself!) to sleep in and go to daycare later on. This morning he sent me a picture text, step-by-step of their mornings.....(excuse the less than quality pictures, Jamie still has a flip phone!)

Snuggling in bed together before rising for the day. I was already super jealous at this point!

Breakfast on the couch...a poptart and left over blueberry muffin.
Brushing their teeth.
And walking to daycare.
Hudson told Paxton it was a little slippery so he better hold his hand......insert my heart melting here.
Although this made me miss my boys terribly, man this has been a good week for me! Sleeping in, only getting myself ready in the mornings, having time to shower, getting to work on time if not a few minutes early! Not to mention he's delivering lunch to me at work today. Thank you Dad!

Family of Animals

Since Paxton's farm animal party, we've been getting good use out these masks. Hudson and Paxton run around in them almost daily, but last night Hudson suggested we all wear them while we ate supper. I bet we were quite the sight!

Hudson the cow.

Paxton the pig.
Mommy the owl.

And Daddy the horse.
