I see why I get so many strange looks and comments, it doesn't look real!!I can't believe we have one more week until we meet our new little girl. I am so excited. I know that as tired as I am now, things are only going to get more tired and busy!! I hope I will soak in all the newborn peace and craziness, cuz I know it goes so fast.
Just look at my little baby boy!! I can't believe how grown up he is getting. He in almost 21 months and is doing so many new things every day. He loves to play with blocks and balls and Barney is his favorite!! We are growing out his hair and it is curly and cute and sometimes CRAZY!! Love this little guy! His latest thing is when I tell him to "come here" he will say "comin" and run as fast as he can to me with one little arm swinging so fast.
Love his sweet face and smile!!
Christiana was on a soccer team here in Anchorage. She loved it and loves her trophy and metal. Her coach and team were so nice, we had a fun time going to games and soccer activities as a family!!
One Friday night we were playing outside at our friends house and Christiana got bit on the forehead by a mosquito. The next morning she looked like she fell out of her bed and got a horrible goose bump or someone punched her on the forehead. After her nap, it had spread down to her entire eye. She looked deformed, like Quasimodo. It was scary. I guess it happens here to kids a lot and there isn't anything to do, but let time pass for the swelling to go down. She was never in pain, she only didn't like it when she couldn't open her eye. There really aren't any mosquitos in AZ, so her little body reacted pretty strongly. Our friends had seen this happen here to kids, but never quite this swollen!! Needless to say, we now spray down with bug spray!!
Yes, the low torpedo is still true to form, even on the third round!!
Christiana put together this outfit!!
One of the best things about being in Alaska is we get to see Chris's brother and sister-in-law and their six boys every three weeks or so. I love them and their family. Their boys are so sweet and they are all such good people. It's been so nice to get to know them. I am feeling sad Suzie is with them right now and we can't make the 7 hour drive because of my time-bomb torpedo!! More good times to come, I'm sure!!
I hope he feels this way about babies a week from now!! I think he will be so sweet. Let's just hope he doesn't carry his new sister around when I turn my back!!
This trail is right by our house here. We live in a forest and it is beautiful. We went walking there on Saturday and saw many enormous trout in the river. Pretty amazing!!
This kid loves Jammies. He asks to put them on and cried at our friends house when their baby got into her pajamas and his weren't available. These are a favorite pair!!
They had a free kids fish day about a month or so ago. It was a beautiful 40 minute drive between gorgeous mountains and the ocean. It was a bit rainy but we had a great family adventure. Smokey the bear was there and Christiana was terrified of him. She thought it was a real bear that she's heard us talk about here. It was fun!!
What a cutie!!
