About Time!

I guess it has been a while since we last updated. We haven't taken any recent pictures (as in the last month or so) that's what happens when you don't buy rechargables for your camera.

I guess the only big news we have since last time is that we do know we are having a girl! She is still due around the end of June - but due dates don't really mean that much when your first child decided to come three weeks early out of nowhere. We are just shooting for June. Everything is going great - and I am much bigger this time around, then I was with Brady. It's good fun! No, in all, I love being pregnant - it's been pretty easy once we got past the first trimester. Now it's time to move Brady into a Big Boy bedroom - all his new furniture is in the garage, waiting for mommy to clean up the rest of her office so we can move the Baby furniture in that room - then Tony gets the fun job of assembling Brady's new furniture!

We are going to Disneyland over Spring Break with all of Tony's family (18 of us in 5 hotel rooms, 2 pregnant girls, 5 kids - 4 of them being girls). Should be lots of fun - there will probably be many stories!

Life is good - just going to try and figure out what it will bring us next!

Manzanita





It was beautiful at the beach this past weekend. Thanks mom and dad for taking Brady!

Heather and Eric - we had a great time, can't wait for Seaside! Thanks to Tony's parents for letting us use the beach house!


We did tour the cheese factory in Tillamook, but didn't see a whole lot - apparently they have the weekends off. Atleast they serve ice cream !


Painting on a rainy day!


Mom and Dad Wiing it up!




Sign her up for the Rocketeers! Shortly after this rather impressive picture was taken, she blew her shoulder out in baseball - go figure - Hamstring fine - shoulder out of use!
We have never laughed so hard!

The kids




Do we think Brady is putting on an act - or is he really going to be this helpful when his sister arrives? Oh - I wish I knew what is going on inside that head of his!!!

Christmas with the Larsen's





We tried to get a family photo - Brady wasn't into it! Can't wait until next year trying to coordinate 4 of us!
Uncle Lynn, Aunt Mary and Laura hosted this year - as always, a fabulous Christmas! It wouldn't be the same without them!

Build a Bear






Aunt Deanna took Brady and Abigail into Build a Bear (for a billion $$) for a Christmas present. Good thing mommy went along to make some executive decisions - with 7 girl cousins, and a sister on the way (zero boy cousins) - he was sure to walk out of there with a pink bear, wearing a Cinderella costume, naming her Lucy. Instead - "Mo" is a very active monkey that plays football and rough houses with daddy!

Thanks Aunt Deanna, Uncle Merle and Cousin Denise! Can't wait to see you in Disneyland!

Christmas with the Charon's


watch out everyone - Brady is on the sidewalk now! Mima and Papa gave Brady a new bike for Chirstmas!



Papa, Abigail, Denise and Brady - watching elfed videos.

More Birthday Pictures






Has anyone ever made a shaped pancake freestyle? I think I used a whole vat of batter, trying to make the perfect #2 pancake for my little guy, and go figure - he wanted waffles after he blew out the candle - I ended up eating his #2.

Brady is TWO!






Our little man is Two! Crazy how fast it goes.

We celebrated with family this year - ELMO style!
