AND THE BABY IS A ..............

Well, after a long day of waiting we were able to have our ultrasound tonight. The baby is doing well and everything looks good at this point. After many looks it seems that we are having another girl. I had the technician check several times, so did Samuel. He is sad but has recovered somewhat. He still says we are having a boy, but it looks pretty doubtful. There is always a small chance, but we are all preparing ourselves for a girl. (at least we have plenty of clothes.) We are setting up a wedding fund if anyone would like to donate? (and I think Samuel is willing to trade a sister for a brother.)

Birthdays continued!!

We have had a great time celebrating Abby's birthday. On her birthday we went to her favorite restaurant, Pizza King. Then the next weekend for her party we went to the zoo for family movie night. There were many church members who were also able to come and help celebrate her birthday and watch the movie Cars. It was a great birthday and we are thankful for the 5 years God has given us with her.
Aren't the cupcakes cute? Yup, I made them myself! (well, I had some help making them, but I decorated them myself!! Thanks Ferguson ladies for all your help!!!)


The evening was capped off with a cupcake eating contest! Who could eat one whole cupcake in one bite without making a mess? The winner- suprisingly enough, Brian is very neat when it comes to cupcake shoving. It is an art. (nope this isn't his first time! Did you know he was so talented?)

Abby turns 5!!! Happy Birthday

These pictures are from Abby's first birthday party. (yes birthdays are almost an all month event between the families and friends!) I will have more pictures to come. This is her favorite present so far. It is a My Twin Doll. Grammy sent her picture in and they made the doll to look like her. I think it worked, what do you think?

They even have matching clothes! (yes it is creepy to walk in and see them both in Abby's bed at night. The doll's eyes don't close and I keep thinking she is going to come to life and kill us all. Or maybe that was me watching to many horror movies in high school.) Notice Isabelle is not far behind! She is stalking Abby waiting for her to put the doll down so she can play with it. So far she has not had any luck.

Homeschool Week 4- Tennis


Yes, Samuel has lost ANOTHER tooth!! At this rate we are going to have to puree all of his food!! (no, he still eats just fine!!!!!)






All the kids got in on the action this week. Yes, they play soccer, they do gymnastics, who needs socialization?!?!?!? Even Isabelle tried to play some!
