heart beat!

"Hey Bubs, ABCDEF...can you tell me what comes next? I will give you a treat!!" - Hannah

Calvin took some more steps this morning! But that was it. We keep trying to get him to take more, but he is pretty stubborn about it.

We got to hear the heart beat this afternoon!!! I went yesterday for my first apt. and my Dr. couldn't hear the heartbeat. We decided not to have an ultra-sound done at this time b/c it was going to cost us $200. But today my great friend who is a labor and delivery nurse was able to have one of her Dr.s do an ultra-sound on me!! Yeah, and we heard an nice strong heart beat and saw the baby:)

severe disapoinment

Hannah's first soccer game was rained out this morning. She was pretty bummed. I am pretty bummed to, b/c I wont be able to see her "first" game next week.

I do get the pleasure of opening our home for a Chinese themed shower for a good friend. I am pretty excited for it. I have never hosted anything before so you can imagine my excitement!

We are hoping for good weather tonight so we can go to the annual hot air balloon glow. It has been raining here all week!

Tuesday's update

This week marks some pretty amazing landmarks for Calvin. He took 2 steps on Saturday morning. None since. He has also started talking more. He can say Ball, Bubby, Baby, and Dog...all small animals are Dogs:)

funny quote by Hannah: "Bubby is a pothead."
She thinks it is funny to say "Bubby is a ___head." and then fills in the blank with random items from around the house. This particular time it was pretty funny.

what comes after 2?

3!
Thats right! We are expecting #3 sometime in April. Please pray for us in this new adventure. We are very excited and Hannah is too(only if it is a girl). She has been begging us for a little sister for years now. Even before Calvin. Pray for a healthy baby and safe delivery.
cravings. I haven't been to the Dr yet. But I have been nauseous and have had some VERY interestingRight now I have been craving Taco Bell....I normally HATE Taco Bell!!
Calvin colored all over the freshly painted walls yesterday. There is this amazing thing with the 2nd child. They don't get punished as much as the first! Dan just laughed at him...

this week

This past week I took the kiddo's home to see their relatives. We had a great time visiting, and it was my first time to drive to KC by myself. It went pretty good. Calvin wasn't thrilled to ride in the car that long, but overall he did well.
Right now we are waiting for Hannah in her gym class. She is actually loving it this year. They learn how to act like a different animal each week.
She is also starting soccer in 2 weeks.
Calvin can crawl on carpet only now. But he still prefers his scooth as main mode of transportation. He can say a few more words now: out, all done, up, more, mama, dada, baba.
Dan is still enjoying his new job and we are enjoying having a house.
