Introducing "Baby2"

We got to hear Baby2's heartbeat today, and we got to see her (yes, her)! At least, "her" as far as the ultrasound technician could tell. I believe her exact words were "Well, I don't see anything", but she seemed pretty sure. I guess we'll know for sure in a few months ...

The little one was definitely on the move ... we even got her doing some crunches! She'll come out with abs of steel. :)

Lucas Spends the Night with Carl

Since mommy was too sick to take care of him and daddy was out of town, Lucas got to spend the night at his best friend Carl's house. This was Lucas's first evening without mommy or daddy. Lucas and Carl had dinner together and got to play before bedtime. Carl's dad read to the boys until Carl was ready for bed, but Lucas needed a little more time. Carl's mom read to him some more and held him until he fell asleep. Then Lucas slept perfectly until the next morning ... what a trooper!

New Year's Fun

Our annual New Year's Day dinner is getting bigger! And crazier! The kiddies seemed to think that sitting in their own chairs was pretty fun, though ... at least it lasted for several minutes. :)

Helping with the Wheel Barrel

Lucas enjoyed helping Daddy with the wheel barrel. They got all the firewood moved from the driveway to back by the shed.
