After the zoo...

So we went to the zoo today after picking up Benjamin from school. Elizabeth did not have a nap even after a morning of running errands with me. So this is what happened...

Night Fishing at the Lake

Here are some pictures form the lake last weekend. BEFORE the storm that kept us all up that night!!! B thought it was the coolest thing!

Hideout

So Mom's out there, if you clean out your linen closet, watch out - your kids might take it over. B & E figured out the bottom of the closet made a cool hideout. Only thing that is missing is a note that says "No Moms and Dads Allowed"!!!!

Judo Girl!

Oh no! It's all in the family!! I thought I would try out Benjamin's very first judogi on her! She is so cute!! But she could barely walk! It won't be long until she is on the mat with her big brother!

Mamas - Don't let your babies...

...get into yogurt when you answer the phone!!!! This is what happens!

Zoo

We went to the zoo with some friends on Friday. It was the first beautiful day after all of the storms here! There were probably 20 or so school buses there! But we had a great time. We went with one of Ellie's friends, Kaylee, that we met thru all of her Cincinnati experience. I met her mom thru a online support group. They are a really neat family and we enjoy seeing them. Ellie wasn't in a great mood but Benjamin and Kaylee's sister Sydney has a blast! Plus, their mom Jennifer and I had a great time talking!

Oh no!

Elizabeth has figured out she can climb into our bed! She got a bit too comfortable!

Drum Roll Please~

So we went for our "big" ultrasound today and...

IT'S


A


BOY!!!!!

So you better watch out! Another boy to add to the mix!!

The doctor said that everything looked great right now! We are very excited!

Judo, Lake and Video Cameras

I forgot to tell everyone about Benjamin getting his FIRST judo promotion last Saturday! I don't know who was more excited - Tommy or Benjamin! Benjamin did really well. He is now a 2nd degree white belt and is very proud of the stripe on his belt!

We went to our lake house over the weekend too. It was so nice being able to actually spend the night there! I should post some pics of when we first bought the place to now - it's amazing! Tommy, Yvonne, Fred, Travis, Penny, Johnny and many more have help to make it actually livable now! We had a great time there and look forward to many more weekends there!

Oh, Benjamin has been doing very well at soccer practice. BUT, he has had some severe allergy attacks. HUGE bummer. So we don't know what to do at the moment. Last night he got pretty sick after practice. We'll see...

We got a new video camera, which by the way is very cool! I have video of almost everything I have mentioned above. Now, if I can figure out how to post them here, we'll be good!!

Bring on Spring - we are ready for some nice weather already!!!!!
