D-Day Approaching!

Found this pregnancy tracker on another blog... you can get your own and plug in your due date. I only have a few days left. I will be induced on October 28 if nothing happens by then.

Vincent's Birthday

Here are some details from Vincent's 6th Birthday. We had a party planned for him on his birthday but he got sick and we had to cancel. Here he is the morning of his bday, before we knew he was sick. He got to eat a "junky" cereal for a birthay treat. I think with the coincidental illness, he may be turned off "junky" cereal!

Below is him opening his gifts from us.

A bicycle basket, custom designed to look boyish and with a V.

A space rocket from dad for the "space" party theme. Dad also got him another rocket that is launched with real fire! We are waiting for the grass to get a bit greener before we try it out.

So now we continue with the story. Vincent is such a good trooper! He was a really nice boy when it came to cancelling the party. He still got a visit from Gramma Cathy that day and some more fun gifts...

We decided to have an impromptu party for him at our next Pray and Play gathering. As the original party was going to be a swim party, so was Pray and Play, but the birthday boy wasn't allowed to swim due to an ear infection. He was still such a nice boy when all his friends could swim and he couldn't. awwww!!! Here are some photos from the festivities:

Moving Day

Here are photos of our family and friends working very hard for us. Thank you so much for all your help!
















Adventures at our new house

Here are some pics of things we did shortly after moving in.





We had these cute froggies in our back yard in the spring.


Jason installed this nice lattice in the garden area. This is the beginning of the garden and boy did the plants flourish but the harvest was minimal. We got a late start.

One thing we had plentiful, zucchini, till the aphids attacked.

Before pics of new house

I haven't been on here in so long! My computer has been set up and I can transfer photos from my camera to the computer! Thanks Jason ! Just in time to have room on the camera card for new baby pics!

Here are some before pics of our new house, doesn't look to good huh? Right after we got the keys to the house, my dad and a friend came and scraped the popcorn off the ceilings, repainted them, stained the white beams in the kitchen and painted most of the walls of the house. What a difference it made!

Thanks Dad!
