WINTER WONDERLAND!

We have gotten a little snow here and there, and we did get the opportunity to play in it a little before it got WAY to cold out (okay so this was suppose to be posted at the end of December). Drew continued to ask to go outside and I hate to admit this, but I was a wimp...it was TOOOOO COLD! I was able to get some fun pics when we played outside, ENJOY!





Hair Post Snow... LOVE IT!!!

Our Family Campout!

After Christmas we bought Drew a Lighting McQueen blow up bed (on clearance) because we knew the next time we took a trip our BIG boy would not fit in the pack-n-play anymore. Well, we had the bright idea to do a family campout in the living room, so he could get use to the new bed. Overall the night went well, but it did take awhile for him to fall asleep not to mention he did not like it when we turned the lights off. David braved the floor with him along with Bella, me I took the recliner.

Enjoy a couple pics of our first campout!

Our Little "Gangster"

Hello All!!


I just had to post this picture I took today of Drew. Recently he has really been into this red striped hat and wears it ALL the time. Now let me share with you I tried to get him to wear this for Christmas and he was not having it...

Now, just like always, "HE" wants to do it, so here you go! He just cracks me up!!! Is it just me, or does he look so much older in this picture????

Below you will see some pics from earlier in the month playing with this same hat. ENJOY!

28 WEEKS- THIRD TRIMESTER!!

Hello ALL! First, some of you know we have been dealing with internet issues, so I am WAY behind with posting on my blogs. I somehow got a virus on my laptop and it took lots of work on David's part to remove it. I am praying and hoping it is good to go!

Now, onto my pregnancy update! We just passed the 28 week mark which means we are officially in the third trimester, which is crazy. I know this last trimester will fly by, which means for me NESTING begins. I am ready to wash all the Newborn clothes and begin packing hospital bags. I know I am crazy, but I like to be prepared.

This little boy is very active just like Drew was. He likes to dance on my bladder, so I guess I am carrying him lower. Drew played in my ribs alot and I am undecided as to which is worse the ribs or bladder???

Anyhow, I am enjoying every moment because I know it will be over way to quickly and there is nothing like feeling those kicks and rolls.

We are still deciding on a name for this munchkin, but we are leaning towards Evan Michael... who knows if that will change in the next 12 weeks, but for now that name is in the lead.

Now for some pictures.. here are my belly shots:

OUR 2010 JOURNEY BEGINS!!

Hello Family and Friends! This is a bit of an unusual post! David and I have been praying for quite some time on how to effect change in our lives to better serve and honor God. Well, first and foremost is finances! So, please join us in prayer and support over the next 3 years as we begin the journey of becoming debt free. I have been recently inspired by a blog... moneysavingmom who set a goal to pay cash for a house, which she & her family achieved by the end of 2009. I knew if they could accomplish that HUGE goal, then we could surely become debt free by 2012.

So, I will update you on our journey over the next several months. We are committed and encouraged by each other, many of you, and most importantly our Lord! We ask that you pray us through this as we know there will be tough times and sacrifices we will have to make along the way.

THANK YOU!! Christie & David
