Our Family is Expanding

This has been such a awesome week for my family! We found out on Tuesday that we are going to have a baby. We were so surprised! I am 5 weeks and my due date is January 1, 2011. I can't wait to see my little "peanut" on the ultrasound in May. I think Cole is excited. He has put in his request for a little sister. A little girl would be nice, but I just want a healthy baby. We bought this cute little shirt for Cole to wear back during the summer incase we got pregnant. So, we dressed him in his little shirt last night and off we went to our parent's and family to spread the good news! The look of surprise and excitement was on everyones face as they discovered from his shirt that he was going to be a big brother :)

King of the Potty

I thought this picture was too cute not to share! We are working on potty training and can say its been a challenge! From this experience I have learned little boys are not going to potty until they are ready...no questions asked! Cole has finally decided he was ready and loves to pick out which pair of "big boy" underwear he will wear each day! Paul took this picture of him and all I can say is its a typical man...gotta read on the potty!

Fun at the Park

We decided to have a fun evening with Cole so we took him to the city park to play! His favorite thing to do right now is swing or slide. He used to be afraid to climb the ladder of the slide, but I guess he's growing up! He even talked his daddy into riding one of the toys too! Afterwards, we had Cole's favorite, chicken nugget happy meal from McDonalds! He was so excited because he got a dragon from "How To Train Your Dragon" in his happy meal :)


He's really concentrating...look at that tongue!






My big kid having fun!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! What a beautiful day it was to celebrate Jesus at our wonderful church service and spend time with family. Good food, egg hunts, and lots of laughter equals one tired family tonight! I attached a few pics from our wonderful weekend!
