Strollin....

Although we are not yet walking by ourselves, we do love to walk with others. :) We'll eventually get there!





Another weekend of enjoying the lovely weather! And now it's raining. LOL! But hey, at least it's not snowing! :) Got to think positive right?

That's it from Turnerville....

Fresh Air!!

We have had some glorious weather here since last weekend. On Sunday late afternoon (post Val's baby shower) we had Noah out on his ATV riding around in the driveway. He was having a BLAST!!!

Here's a little video we got of him..



Yea for spring time!!!!!

Updates!

Well I've been slacking I know... Things have been a bit hectic around our house lately. We've had another bout of illness run through. This time it hit me as well and I ended up at the hospital for a few hours getting fluids. The baby is fine and now so am I.

I hit 24 weeks this weekend and LT2 is really moving around now! Noah likes to play with my belly button just like his auntie Jaime does. He's fascinated that it's half sticking out. LOL! And he likes to climb over Mount LT2 as well. It's pretty funny, I'm a jungle gym now for him! I've actually got some energy the past few days so that's been nice. I think the illness crud-o has finally gone and I can be productive! :D

This week is going to be busy as I've got Waconia's 2nd Annual Ladies Night Out on Thursday. I'm having a booth there so I hope to drum up some more photo business for the upcoming spring & summer! I'm really looking forward to it. It should be a great evening! I'm the only photographer there (the booths were exclusive per industry on a first come first serve basis) so that's a plus. And I'm all set for it too! Then Saturday and Sunday are filled with family events for Shawn's side. It should be a fun but busy weekend!

Oh and one last thing... Noah is 15 months old today! I can hardly believe that 15 months have passed. Where did they go? It all happens so fast. He's still not walking yet, but he's taken some steps. He's just very cautious. Plus I think that since he's rapid fast boy when crawling he prefers that. I just hope he starts walking soon because I don't know how much longer I can bend down to pick him up!

TTFN!!!

SPRING FEVER!!!

All of you know the crap winter we've had in our house. Yes I know "that's life", but when you are pregnant it is just even more of a bummer. And I can not even begin to tell you all how bad I have SPRING FEVER!! I want to open the windows, take walks after dinner with my boys, go to the park, have a bonfire with the neighbors, HAVE THIS BABY AND BE ON MATERNITY LEAVE (LOL! had to sneak that in there), eat & chill out on our deck... ETC.. ETC.. Ah the sorrows of a hormonal pregnant woman.

In other news... On March 12th I will be participating at the Waconia's Ladies Night Out. It's a chance for local women to get connected with women owned business and products. It's the 2nd year it's happened in Waconia. Otherwise it has been going on in Victoria for the last 4. I will be the only photographer there as it's a first come first serve basis for vendors. Only 1 per type of business. So I'm pretty pumped! It was a big success last year, so I hope it will be this year too.

That's it for now!

Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Valentines Day everyone! Belated of course! Our valentines weekend ended up being a bit sad because our friends who were supposed to come up for the weekend from Florida couldn't. But it was for the best because Christopher needs to get rid of the bronchitis that he obtained last week! So instead they shall hopefully be coming up this summer after the new arrival is here! :)

We instead went out to dinner on valentines day with Noah, my parents, and my grandmother. It was a lovely evening. Noah did very well at dinner. I think I spilled more food on myself or the table than he did! Gotta love the prego clutziness. LOL!

Here is my favorite picture of the weekend. My 2 guys with their shades on thinking they are the coolest guys in town!

And we are having....

A BOY!!!!

Shawn was a bit sad it wasn't a girl, but we are both very happy about our new little guy. He looks very healthy and on target for June 27th! His little nose already looks like his brothers (and mine). :) We told Noah last night he's going to have a brother and got the response we expected. A blank stare. LOL!

I uploaded the ultrasound pictures to our web album. Here's the direct link for you all. Go check out our new little guy!!

Snow Fun!

Well lookie here! A post without something bad to report! Woo Hoo!!!! We spent last weekend visiting Shawn's grandparents up in Milaca on Saturday. They haven't seen Noah since the previous Christmas. It was a lot of fun. Noah had a good time walking around their house with Grandpa Roehl's walker. It was hilarious!



Sunday we spent at home putzing around the house and managed to get outside and play in the snow since it wasn't -31 degrees outside! Noah had a blast! This was his first time playing in the snow and he really enjoyed it!






See the January album for lots more pictures! The basement is moving along! The fireplace is now all framed in and up in its home. The height we put it at is perfect! So excited to see it finished and fired up!
