  • Randy had a great time with his dad and brothers on their fishing trip this weekend.  It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be by myself with both kids.  My friend Ashley came over and hang out with us Friday night.  It was good to have an extra pair of hands!  We tried to watch a movie after the kids went to bed, but Madelyn was really fussy and kept waking up.  She's been teething since earlier in the week and it seems to bother her more at night.  So I dealt with her the whole time.  Saturday we got up and met my mother-in-law and Randy's grandmother halfway so they could see the kids.  My sis-in-law Kristina and Alyssa came too.  We went to a really neat place called the Little Bitty City.  It had all these different play stations like a dress-up stage, a train room and a little restaurant.  They had a little workout room with tiny trampolines that Parker loved!  It was really neat, we'll definitely be going back there.  We spent about half the day there and after that went to the mall for a while.  After the mall and dinner we headed home.  It was a fun day.

    Playing dress up in the princess room!

    Maddie was "pushing" Parker in the shopping cart.  Aren't those carts too cute?

    Nana was showing Madelyn how to play.  I had to change her clothes because she couldn't crawl in her little red dress.

    After we ate lunch we went back and the kids got to paint.  Parker loved painting!  He kept saying "wow" whenever he put the paint on the paper. My little boy may have some of the "artiste" in him!

    Right now I'm relaxing and watching "Lost."  I'm going to try to catch up before the season starts.  I know it's impossible, but they're airing the first season on Sunday nights now and I'm DVR-ing them.   How many seasons are there?  I know there are some big Lost fans out there who can tell me!

    There's not a lot going on this week.  Maddie Grace turns 9 months on Wednesday and my birthday is next Sunday (yep-Father's Day), so we'll be doing birthday stuff this weekend.  My brother Timothy's birthday is Saturday too.  So we're going to do both birthdays and Father's Day in one big party!   

    Have a good weekend everybody!

    Hey Jen!  I'm sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you about the movie (it's been nuts here).  Tomorrow won't work for me, but I'd really love to take Zadie and go with you guys...do you want to try for next week?  Can you send me your phone numbers again?  I never found my phone but finally got a new one!  I'll tell you all about what's going on here when we talk :)  love you :)

    Thanks so much Jen.  We are so incredibly excited.   And last night I told Jake... aww.. we're like Jen and Randy.. we found out around our 5 year anniversary (5 years is next Friday).  hehehe.  Thanks for praying for us...  I don't think I've ever prayed this much in my entire life!  I just can't believe it actually happened.    Such a miracle!!  Have a great day!!  <3
