Pirate Costume.......Check.

It's 4 a.m. and WHY again am I awake? We have been having trouble getting our hot water heater to light and stay lit and I'm so excited because I just tried it and it lit! I can take a bath at my own house this morning and don't have to go to Robert's mom's! We sat at his grandmother's house until midnight tonight (or would that be last night!?!), came home, finally fell asleep about 1:30 and by 3 I was up and at it. I got a note in Kase's folder last night that he is supposed to come to school dressed like a pirate today........hmmmm, wasn't prepared for that one! I thought he just had to be one tonight and I'd have today to work on it but no, dress rehearsal is at 9:30 a.m. But I did it, well kinda! As much as I could without him actually being awake to try it on. Now I'm just waiting for the water to heat up so I can take a shower and um, I guess wait until time to wake the boys up and get them ready for school. The countdown is on......6 hours until I find out and "it" is going nutso as I type! I'm so excited, just wish it wasn't going to be such a sad day for the family......

So now we're 1 and 1

It's a girl for "M". It sure does seem like a LONG time until Thursday!!!

It's A......

Boy...............for "T" anyway! The three of us in the family all due within a few days of each other are all finding out this week. "T" went this morning, "M" goes tomorrow, and then it's me on Thursday. I CAN'T WAIT! I have a poll set up on my page and I want everyone to vote on what they think I'm having. Only 3 days left! Yes, I know, I know, no pics yet, but I promise, I will one of these days!!! The little one is still a wild child and I feel it kicking all the time. It is also so low that I'm afraid it's going to fall out!

They finally got some!

We made a quick trip to Abilene last night to get some things for our camping trip this weekend and found a set of clubs for the boys for really cheap, so of course, Robert couldn't pass them up. We didn't get home until 9:00 and yes, Kase had school, but school schmool, they have new golf clubs! Sorry the pics are so dark, I took them at 10:00 last night! I guess they (or the dog) also invented a new game. It's called "hit the golf ball and then run like heck to get to it before the dog does"! The little stinker kept "fetching" the balls and then taking off with them! But I did learn that those boys can run like nobody's business when they have to! Future track stars!?! Hehehe Probably not!

Practicing

He tried to show Koy, but well, you see what happened!

Watch out Kase, he's dangerous!

The ball stealer - She just looks sweet and innocent!

It's kind of hard to golf with a dog watching and waiting!

Trying to explain things to her. Ha ha, yeah right!

Didn't seam to do any good!

Teasing the dog "Come get it Hallie. Come get it."

Boys will be boys

I got in a picture taking mood Saturday so I gave the boys haircuts and we headed downtown to shoot a few. Kase didn't want to participate at first so I wasn't going to make him, but then he decided he wanted to take a few. I don't think his turned out that great, but I put them up anyway. O yeah, and the clothing, guitars and song choices were all their idea so don't blame me!!!!!

Just summing it up

Wow, has it really been 3 WEEKS since I've posted!?! I must have been pregnant or something! :) So hmmm, what have we been up to?

We spent a week in Ruidoso over spring break. They went skiing one day, but it only lasted about 4 hours and they were done. Koy was awesome and loved it, Kase, not so much. I had strict orders from Dr. T. to sit this year out, so I just sat with Jackson and we watched everyone else ski. I was a little sad that I didn't get to ski, esp. after I got there and saw everyone else, but it was still great to just get away for a week! O yeah, and they have the BEST french fries in Ruidoso! lol Everywhere I went had really good french fries and I just could not stop - like I really needed them! But I guess what baby wants, baby gets! I'm sure I'll really regret it later! Robert and Jacob also decided it was a good time to start golfing while there were there, so I am officially a golf widow. He played after work every day last week! Here are just a few pictures of them skiing.

Kase - poor guy spent most of the day on the ground!

He's had enough and is heading back!

Koy and I at the very top of the mountain. I had Robert's coat on over mine - I look huge!

We find out on May 7th what we are having. I'm so excited and ready to start shopping!!! I'm starting to show, and I know I need to, but I just can't make myself take a picture of my belly! I keep saying I'll take one at 10 weeks, then I say 12 weeks, and now I'll be 14 weeks on Thursday, so maybe then............and maybe not!

This past weekend the boys and I spent the night with Mike and Charity Friday night and they boys played and had a great time all day Saturday. Poor Kase even cried when we left that evening. He hadn't seen his cousins in several weeks and Kooper was there too, so he had a really good time playing with them and doing "boy things". Charity drove me around town so I could get a little shopping done and then we took Sam downtown to get some new pictures of him. He's such a cutie! We were done in about 5 minutes. It took us longer to find a place to take them than it did to actually take the pictures!

10 Weeks 5 Days

I had my second ultrasound yesterday and everything looked good. Thank you God!!! The heartbeat was around 160 and it's going to be a wild one. It was going crazy in there like it was hitting me and throwing a fit! It was such a great feeling to see it moving around like that. I am so excited now! Robert is convinced I found out what it is and just won't tell him!
