It's a BOY!

For those who haven't heard Matt and I found out on Christmas Eve that we are having our second baby boy! Although I wanted a girl so bad that it hurt......I am so very excited that he is HEALTHY and VERY ACTIVE! During the ultra sound he would not stop moving but we got some very good pictures of our sweet little boy waving to us!

I will be posting the pictures from our ultra sound as soon as we are able to go back into our apartment! Long story short about that....Our apartment building was flooded so we are not at home right now! :( But we will be home shortly! Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa for letting us stay with them! What would we do without them!?

A fun update!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Hope everyone is enjoying the start of the Holiday season! Well, everyone here is doing great! Jonah had fun tonight while we were playing with Boppo....a.k.a. Grandpa! He was playing peek-a-boo with Boppo's hat and I got some fun pictures of it!

Also, I just wanted to let everyone know that Matt and I find out what we are having on Christmas Eve! Merry Christmas to us! So our gift to everyone this Christmas is telling them if we are having a baby boy or a baby girl! I am hoping for the girl of course....me being the major girly girl. But because I want a girl I know I am going to be blessed with another boy! As long as the baby comes out healthy and strong, I have no problems one way or the other!

Enjoy the fun pictures of our little man!

Happy 2nd Birthday Jonah!

Happy 2nd birthday to my handsome little boy! We love you soooo much! I can't believe that 2 years has gone by so fast! Happy Birthday!

Mommy Pumpkins!

We went to the pumpkin patch this weekend with some of Jonah's cousins and Jonah was on pumpkin OVERLOAD! Ever since we put out our Halloween decorations Jonah has LOVED to say pumpkins! We have these light up pumpkins that he makes us turn on when ever he is awake! He loves them! So, needless to say he had a blast at the pumpkin patch! There was a section with animals in it (that stunk SOOOOOO BAD!). Jonah loved those guys too but he kept calling them the "Yucks" because they were pretty gross! We had lots of fun and Jonah even picked out his own pumpkin! He was very excited!

It's About Time!

Cinco De Mayo here we come! We are pregnant with baby number 2!!! Yea! We just had our first ultra sound today and the baby is perfectly healthy and growing well! We could see 10 fingers and 10 toes! We heard the heart beat and it was very strong! Doc says every thing looks fine and my due date is May 5th (as long as the baby doesn't get too big since Jonah was huge!) We are so excited and we couldn't wait any longer to tell everyone! Jonah is very happy too! He loves to point to my belly and say "Mommy, Baby!" Enjoy the pictures!


Mommy's little jelly bean!



This one is my favorite! The baby is just kicking back! Crossing it's feet and waving!

Just a little update!

Hey all! I just wanted to let everyone know that Jonah is doing soooo much better! He is almost back to normal again! He definitely has his appetite back though, which makes me very happy! The only thing that we are still a little worried about is he is not gaining his weight back as fast as we would like. But that will just come with time I guess! With the way he is eating, I'm hoping it won't take too long! He is back to smiling though, and I have missed that and his fun little laughs! I'm so grateful he is doing so much better!

My Sweet Little Baby

If any one hasn't heard yet, my poor baby boy was back in the hospital this past Thursday for Rota Virus. He was hospitalized just four and half months ago for the same thing! My little guy just can't seem to catch a break!

He woke up on Tuesday morning throwing up and having LOTS of yucky diapers and so Matt and I both agreed that we wouldn't wait this time like we did last time. We took him straight to the doctor and he said we just need to give him some time to see if he would get over it.

Well, he didn't. It just got worse. So, they put him in Saint Mary's for about 3 days to hydrate him with IV fluids. It is amazing how quickly that helps to get him better.

We got home on Saturday afternoon, and he is doing better. He lost about four or five pounds (better than last time! He lost seven!) but he is starting to get his appetite back and is drinking much better.

I don't understand this! I hate seeing my poor little guy so sick when there is nothing that I can do for him! It just breaks my heart! The doctor said that after two or three times of children getting Rota Virus, their body starts to build up an immunity to it! I sure hope so! I will keep my fingers crossed!

My son steals food!

Today, while all the babies were sleeping (I now watch 2 little babies during the day....Lots of work but very fun!) including my son, I decided that I would treat myself to a yummy mint chocolate drumstick. They are my weakness. I love them! So, of course, right when I open the package and take my first lick, I hear Jonah say over the baby monitor, "Mommy! All done! Get out!" UGH! Right at my first moments peace! So, without thinking about it I set my ice cream on a paper towel on the table and go and get Jonah out of bed. I changed his diaper and let him run free, and within the 15 seconds that it took him to run from his room out to the living room, he got onto the couch, crawled over to the table, and had chocolate ALL OVER his face!

I walked over to him and said, "You took my ice cream! Can mommy have a bite?" He smiled and said "No! Yummy!"

He sat there and ate the WHOLE CONE! That's what I get though for leaving my ice cream out for little fingers!

Camping at Morro Bay

This past weekend Jonah and I got to go camping at the Edmonds Family Reunion in Morro Bay, CA. We were VERY sad that Matt couldn't come. He couldn't get off from work so he told me just to go ahead and go. It was lots of fun! It was sooooo COLD though! We were not used to that being in the middle of the summer! It was really neat because I got to see some of my cousins that I haven't seen in about 10 years. It was so much fun to catch up with everyone! Jonah had lots of fun too. This was the first camping trip that he was actually able to do anything! We went camping last year but he was still a baby so he didn't really understand anything. This year, he was all about playing with his cars in the dirt and he was LOVING the camp fires! Oh no! I have another piro on my hands, just like his dad! All in all, it was lots of fun! We missed our daddy though!


Jonah and his favorite dump truck playing in the dirt! FUN!

Jonah loved to eat the roasted marshmallows that EVERY one of his cousins kept giving him! He had SO MUCH SUGAR!


My Aunt Kathy brought up her bike and every one was trying it out. It was this really neat cruiser bike. Jonah even got a turn with Boppo (Grandpa) and did not want to get off!

We had a really good time! Enjoy all the pictures!

Princess? Of course!

I saw the princess quiz that Steph took on her blog so I decided to do it to! What a surprise! I am Cinderella! I started laughing when I saw that because my whole life I have loved Cinderella! When I was little I watched the movie so much that my Mom had to hide it from me because I had broken the first movie we bought since I watched it so much! It was fun! Try it out and let me know who you guys are!


You Are Cinderella!

Dignified and hard working. With a gentle and soft-spoken manner you have something many people don't. Patience. Even through the moments of heartbreak you're still able to hold onto all of your hopes and dreams. Bide your time; your dream will come true.

Which Disney Princess Are You?

Anniversary Fun!

Matt and I just celebrated our 3rd anniversary this past Tuesday. We decided that we would go out and celebrate this weekend though because Matt had to work. We went out to dinner on Saturday night and then we went and played miniature golf! It was so fun! We took lots of goofy pictures of each other and laughed at our lack of golf skills! We had lots of fun! Happy anniversary to us!

My Water Baby

I took Jonah to the swimming pool a few days ago and he LOVED it! I knew he loved to play in the water and we have gone to the pool before, but he was just lots of fun that day! He learned how to "kick, kick, kick"! He wouldn't just say it once it was three times! And thanks to his daddy he now likes to run and jump off the side of the pool! Yea for Jonah! Scary for Mommy!

I got bored!

So I have been looking at everyone else's blogs a lot and everyone seems to have some really cute little slide shows of their pictures, so I thought I would give it a try! Some of the pictures are a few months old, but I thought I would try it out anyways! Enjoy!

Nothing New!

Well, nothing new has happened to us in the last few weeks! Sorry guys! We are sooooo boring! Lots of people have been asking me to post pictures of Matt and me together and some of me and Jonah. Well, I don't have too many recent pictures of Matt and I, but I will put the ones that I have up there! That's what happens when you have a baby I guess! Your whole camera is full of pictures of your baby! Oh well! I wouldn't change that for anything!

Finally!!

Hey everyone! I finally did it! Everyone has been saying how much fun setting up a blog is, so I finally am doing it! Let me give you an update on our little family.

Matt has just got done with summer school. He is loving school! Straight A's since he started! He is going to switch from TMCC to UNR this fall. He is very excited!

Jonah is finally gaining back his weight from being so sick! He is talking lots and picking up on so much right now. He loves to dance and play with our dog Emmy.

I am having fun being a mom right now. I love my baby boy! I have just started assistant coaching the Varsity cheerleaders at Reed High School with my mom. I am having lots of fun!
