Off the Chair!

Kendall and Zane were leaving to go swimming and as I was working in the back of the house I yelled, "Bye Ziggy!" Zane's reply? "Bye Mama. Have fun. Don't fall off the chair!" I must say, normally this would make sense as I am a clutz, but I don't think I've fallen off a chair in quite a while. This kid comes up with the funniest random things to say. I guess he is a lot like me...he has an extremely vivid imagination and a really random mind.

Newport, Oregon trip

After much schedule swapping and negotiation, we were able to go to Steve and Alisa's wedding on the Oregon coast this last weekend. We're so happy we were able to go. It was absolutely beautiful and freakin' cold. Portland was in a hot spell and drawing all the cold weather off the ocean into the coastal towns. Basically it was really foggy and cold and we did not have the right clothes for it. Luckily I had checked the weather patterns and we took the warmest clothes we had, but it was still pretty cold. Friday we flew into portland and then drove the 2hours and 45 min to Newport. We went and hung out with Steve and some of the other guys until the rehersal dinner. We froze at the rehearsal dinner until they finished rehearsing and moved the dinner indoors. Later that night we went to a bon-fine on the beach. Zane's first. He had a blast. At one point he did try to jump in the fire but we caught him. We got to eat s'mores and just relax. Saturday we hung out in our room and then went and played at the beach w/ Steve and the rest of the non-getting ready wedding people and zane of course got soaked. We went to the wedding, which i must say, is one of the coolest weddings I've ever been to. Woke up at 3am and drove to portland to catch our flight at 7. All in all, it was a really quick trip, but totally worth it. We really needed a little vaca. Here are some pics from the weekend. We're even more excited to go to portland for kendall's rotation in september and we're going to be living w/ Steve and Alisa so we're going to have blast, as long as they can stand living with a prego and a 3year old. :)

At the bon-fire.

Zane having a blast, he's up to his knees in sand. :)





I think Zane might have taken this, we gave him the camera to keep him quiet.



View from our hotel room the second day after the fog dissipated a little.

Zane playing with his new best friend, although he can't tell you her name.



There's Steve-O (as Zane calls him)...



and Alisa.

Good News

So as some of you know, and most of you don't, I'm pregnant! Whoohoo! I'm about 8 weeks, the due date should be around March 10th or so. We've actually known for a while, but at my first check up they didn't think "things were developing as they should." So we were finally able to get someone to give me a one time ultrasound here in Denver and there's a little baby with a big head and a heartbeat. Yeah! It's so exciting. After the miscarriage in April and then my ob's nurse practitioner doing a crappy ultrasound we were pretty worried. It's kinda funny though, it finally feels real and I'm thinking, crap, I'm going to have another baby, can i handle that? I guess that's why the Lord made a 9 month gestation period...to get you ready for the baby. We're really excited though. I'm not really having morning sickness like I did with Zane. Kendall's hoping that means it's a girl. We'll see. I got my way with Zane, kendall wanted a girl then too. Maybe he'll get his little girl.
