Its a bird, Its a plane, no its a....

BABY!

Here is my first ultrasound at 9 weeks which puts my due date on January 21st. Darn we were hoping to make it by the end of the year, so if you know any old wives tales on how to make that baby pop out early, I am open to all suggestions!

We are kinda hoping for another boy because it would be convenient but I am feeling like it is gonna be a girl. Either way we will be totally happy.

Its Raining, Its Pouring, the old man is snooring

So it has been raining for about the last 2 weeks now and I hate it...so does Ashton. He just looks out the window all day while saying "outside." So finally I gave in, put on his rain coat and l let him go at it. He had the best time playing in the mud and in the gutter water and he didnt even get neumonia! (sp) So now there is a ray of hope once more for us to both have some sanity amongst all this freakin rain. But please, let there be an end to it soon.

And look at this, 2 blogs all in one day! Woot Woot

A Quick look at the Past Couple Months

It starts in Denver. We made a trip to Denver in March for my sisters wedding (which I will post pics of if she ever gives me some.) Here we are at the aquarium, it was pretty cool. Ashton enjoyed seeing some of it and others he didnt even notice. But I liked it and it was the first aquarium I have ever been to.

Next on the list is Easter! I made Ashton a custom Easter basket cuz I am just that awesome. Besides every Easter basket I have ever seen in the store is pretty ugly. He loved digging through it and opening the eggs. He just about made himself sick form candy but not quite to the ralphing point.

And here Ashton is just being his usual crazy self. He knows just the right

face to get exactly what he wants.

I know I know I need to get on the ball with taking more pics and posting blogs. But I'm a slacker and atleast I admit it. It is sad that my friend that just had twins can find the time to keep up on her blog and make it awesome and I cant! You go Kristin!!! Way to be a super mom blogger.

Update on Life

So since I havent blogged in a long time I figured I had better get on the ball. So here is a family update on what has been going on.
My sis is getting married on March 28 so I have been busy planning and making things for the wedding.
Kurtis has turned 30 which makes him officially OLD.
Ashton is a wild animal that should be caged. He is in everything and goes everywhere he can.
I had knee surgery on Friday which makes it a lil hard to chase after the lil animal..... and hard to walk.
Ashton got his first curling iron burn a couple weeks ago. It was bound to happen with my hot appliances around.
We got a brief taste of spring which only left us wanting more. (It is supposed to snow tomorrow though.)
So yeah that is about all for us. We are really boring people right now. Once summer comes hopefully there will be more to blog about.

Christmas Bliss

Kurtis kind-of smiled, right?

Just a few pics from Christmas this year. We had a great Christmas in our new home. My mom was here with us this year which mean Ashton is more spoiled than ever now. My sis and I cooked dinner for everyone, which was a first. And unfortunately Kurtis had to work on Christmas night but was with us for the morning. Ashotn got some really nice stuff this year and it was a lot of fun to see his face light up when he saw his car under the tree. He did well with unwrapping, although he wanted to carry every piece of trach straight to the garbage....so it took a while.

Family Pictures!!!

We had our very first family pics done a couple days ago. It was a lot of fun even though it was pretty cold outside. Ashton loves to be outside so he did really well considering the weather. So here is a preview of some of my favorites.
