Disney Live!

Last night, my mom and I took the boys and our neighbors Jessica and David to the Rose Garden to see Playhouse Disney Live. I wasn't sure if the boys would like it, but they loved it! All 3 boys did fantastic!

The boys absolutely loved Mickey Mouse, Tigger, and the Little Einsteins' Rocket. All day long they have been asking if the 'mouse is sleeping' because we didn't see him today. Too cute!

In Due Time

Well, I went to the doctor today for what I thought was my 15 week checkup. Last time I was in I had an ultrasound, and they said that based on the baby's size, my due date has shifted 3 weeks later and is now August 10th. Which means I'm only 12 weeks. Ugh. And, that means 3 weeks more of being pregnant in the summer heat. BUT, it is all good. I got to hear the baby's heartbeat today which is beating strong. AND, my doctor, who I absolutely LOVE, had told me at my last appointment that he was going to drop his OB insurance as of August 1st due to the high insurance premiums so it was a good thing I was due July 22nd. Well, after the nurse told me of my August 10th due date, I got a bit nervous (okay, I slightly freaked out) that he wouldn't be able to deliver the baby. When he came in, he told me that he wanted to be the one to deliver our baby, so he had already checked and extended his insurance for one month just for us! Did I mention that I LOVE him? So he said that we'll be his last baby delivery and he is really excited. I was so touched that he did this just for Mike and I because I know it can't be cheap. Everything is going to work out just fine and I just need to remember that God has his own plans, whether July or August, and I just need to be flexible. : )

Ready for summer

Well, the boys are ready for summer. They can't stand not being outside in this cold weather to play. So Papa bundled them up and took them out to do some pruning. Don't you love Zach's boots with Papa's stocking cap?

You probably can't see it, but Zachary is holding his own pair of mini pruning shears.
And the next morning, the boys disappeared outside (they climbed through the doggie door) and we looked and Tyler was wearing Papa's slippers and no coat, and Zachary was wearing Grandma's shoes and his hat on backwards and holding Tyler's hat.
The slippers were so big on Tyler that he couldn't walk back inside, so Papa had to go rescue him from being stuck in the yard!

Status Quo

It has been a long time since I posted anything! And I really don't have anything new to report. Everything is status quo around here. We are adjusting to Mike's new graveyard schedule, and I am adjusting to pregnancy life...Saltines, lots of naps, a new wardrobe. I am really trying to enjoy this time as it will definitely be my last time being pregnant. I know that even though it doesn't seem to be going fast now, July will be here before I know it! We will find out the first week of March whether we are having a boy or girl. The boys are just hysterical...new words and crazy ideas every day. I love this age (minus the occasional tantrum). Matthew is doing so great at basketball this year....I am so proud of him! LaCrosse is right around the corner for him, and then next year it is on to high school sports! Kathryn is really enjoying her kids groups at our church, and she is anxiously awaiting baseball season. The boys and I are heading to Grandma and Papa's house this weekend so that mommy can get a little R&R and help chasing around the munchkins while daddy gets some much needed sleep.

Oh to be a cat....
