Natalie's Sentiments

I have lots to share with you all, but it's going to have to wait. It's late and I am going to bed!! Night night!

{Going BoNkErS}

This morning my mops group (mothers of preschoolers) had their monthly outing to Going Bonkers. If you have never heard of it, it's an arcade/ball pit/climbing etc fun house. It's pretty cheap and hours of fun for the kids. Braeden, being only 1, got in for free and had a BLLAASST!

He was running all over the place, going down slides, playing in the ball pits, and just was able to be a kid. At the house there are so many restricted areas for him, and their he could just run wild.

Couldn't help but post a few pictures from this morning :)

{Can You Whistle?}

Braeden has been learning so much lately, it's hard to keep up. People who go for a week without seeing him, are amazed at how much he as learned. I think he will have to keep working on his whistle though :)

** Wait until the end of the video and watch Braeden's whistle

{Happy Birthday Dad}

My dad's birthday was actually on the 4th of this month, but it took me a while to get the pictures from the night. Ryan, Braeden and I drove up to my parents house and celebrated with a good home cooked meal of steak and potatoes, with a coconut cream pie. Does it get better than that? Oh yeah it does ... there were leftovers that we were able to bring home!

We were not able to stay too long, but we made the most out of being there. Plus Braeden loves going there... can we say spoiled?

{Husband Love}

Can I just tell you how much I love my husband right now? He has been the sweetest person in the world the last week, and I think it deserves some blog space! For instance, today he worked a full day, traveled the state of Missouri for his job, made progress, and came home around dinner time. All I had to say was that I was in the mood for some really spicy stir-fry ... done! Off he goes to the grocery store and comes home, tells me to hang out with Braeden, and that he will call me when it's done. It was AMAZING! I think of myself as a pretty good chef, but my husband is 10 times better than me. He out did himself tonight, and I just want to thank him for doing those little things for me.

Love you Ryan!

As for those who are wondering, my doctors appointment went really well today. It was only about 5 minutes long, normal for being only 14 weeks along. Everything looked great, and the baby's heart rate was a perfect 150! I won't go again until late February, but I'll keep you posted. Be sure to check out the poll on the right side of the blog, and let me know if you think it will be a boy or a girl :)

{Fun with Friends}

Ryan, Braeden and I have had so much fun this holiday break with our friends that we rarely get to see. Now that Ryan has more free time with his new job, we can go out more ... which is soo nice!

Braeden and I were able to hang out with the sweet quads ... who are so much fun! And Ryan and I were able to hang out with both Cody and Philip and Melissa and Jonnie. ** Sad news, I took so many pictures of Cody and I and the bump ... but, my stupid camera ... Cody, they got deleated and I hate myself for it ... I'm sorry!

Anyways, here are some of the pictures of our fun Christmas break!

So I apologize. I know I have been a bit blah lately, and I will pick up. I have been extremely tired, and, well I will say it, lazy. So hang in there, and I will post some good stuff in the next couple of days. Plus, I go back to the doctor on Tuesday so I will have some udating on the new addition soon! Can't wait!

ps: wish me luck, I am trying to convince my beautiful husband to MOVE and so far, I think it's working :)

{Bad Blogger ... Bad, Bad, Blogger}

I know, you don't have to tell me ... I have been terrible this past week and a half! I have slacked, and you know what? I don't even have an excuse. I just sat back, didn't really get on the computer, didn't really have my phone on, and just enjoyed the holiday's with my family and friends. And it was Amazing! But, i'm back, and I feel like I have so much to share with everyone!

I am feeling great. With my first son, Braeden, I never got morning sickness, and I didn't with this one either. Boy again?? Who knows! So things are progressing well, I am not in my second trimester, and loving every minute of it. Well, except for the fact that I am tired 90% of the time, and I don't fit in any of my old clothes. A bummer, but just another reason to buy a few more things :)

Christmas was wonderful. Christmas Eve we went to church with my family and then came back to Jeff to have steak and crab legs with Ryan and I's family. It was a lot of fun, and everyone seemed to have a great time. Christmas morning it was just us three opening gifts which I absolutly love. Here are a few pictures from that morning!
