A Baby Girl

So I am sure that I have called you all already. (Or tried, I can't help if you don't answer or call me back.) I just could not keep this news all to myself. I went to a new Dr. yesterday, thanks to my wonderful friend Joye who referred me to her OB. And since I was a new patient she gave me a quick ultra sound to check sizes and time lines and she told me she is almost positive that it is....

A GIRL!!!!!!!
I am so excited I can hardly stand it. All I want to do is go out and buy lots of PINK...Surprise, surprise! So anyway I thought I would share some pictures from our ultra sound so you all can see our beautiful girl....






The new Doc, who I love said that things are looking good, she also moved up my due date to August 4th. We are still talking about weither or not we will have a C section or not. So if I do then we should know the exact birthdate and we will just plan it. I'll keep you posted.

Child Proof?????

Child proof is not child proof any more. This morning I came down stairs and Ty was in the kitchen getting the usual pop tart before school. I picked up his bottle of vitamins and said "here you need to take some vitamins" Ty said "I already took them"....He figured out how to open the top by himself...so I proceeded to have a conversation with him about how vitamins could be bad if you have too many.

Since Matt is usually the vitamin freak, when he got home he said to Ty "Did you have vitamins today?" Ty said "yes" and I told Matt about how he open the bottle himself. Matt said to Ty "How did you open the bottle"

Ty said "I read the directions on the top of the bottle and looked at the arrow!"
(He said it with much sarcasm) This kid never fails to amaze us!

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! As a rule we really don't go crazy on Valentine's day. We don't see the point. Ty celebrated yesterday at school and loved it. He took "fun dip" valentine's for everyone at school and came home with a LOOT of stuff! I guess there are major benefits to being in both the kinder class and the 1st grade class....

DOUBLE THE VALENTINE'S!

Unfortunately he came home sick from school, but my kid is no dummy he didn't complain to his teacher of being sick until after the Valentine's party was over! So when he got home he just sat there going through his valentine's.

Yesterday was also our good friend Johnny's Birthday! (Which many of you may know his real name is Juan!) And of course we all find all the ways to tease him about that! it's all in good fun, and he is a great sport about it!! So anyway for Juan's birthday Joye threw him a surprise party at their house and I had the honor of making a very cool cake for Juan...It was Joye's Idea I just carried it out :) What better to represent some Juan's birthday than....
A SOMBRERO THAT SAYS....

Joye hat the idea that it should say, "your the Juan who's birthday it is" But I had a dream it didn't fit on there and I ruined the cake...Must be the pregnancy talking :) which by the way is good, 15 weeks tomorrow...only 5 weeks till we find out what it is!! We can't WAIT!

Love you all have a happy valentine's day!

Fundraiser update....
Special thanks to all who have given to Ty I think he is at about $450! He is so excited about it, he is giving his gym teacher updates and I think it has officially made him the gym teachers favorite :)

Ty the fundraiser

Ty's American Heart Association Day is next Friday (Feb. 20th) and he is in full swing of fundraising. You all know how good he is at that! Lest we forget him taking home first prize for the preschool fundraiser, by pulling all your heart stings! He has been hard at work, calling and emailing people. He has a website with the American Heart Association so you can go there and make a donation. If you need the link just email me and I can send it again. I don't know how to post it here.

He is very excited about this, so I just want to say thanks to all of you in advance for helping this kid out! We are so blessed that we have such great friends and family who are always willing to support him in all his ventures.
