Its Official!!!

It is official Jason and I are expecting our 3rd child. My due date is August 28th which means I am now 11 weeks along. We are excited but still wondering how we are going to take care of 3 kids as we will be outnumbered. We mostly are just hoping that this pregnancy goes as well as my first 2 and that the baby will be strong and healthy.

Marshmellows and Love!

These pictures are just some of the fun times I have caught on camera in the last few days.

These are my little marshmellows playing in the snow. You gotta love how neither of them are actually looking at the camera.

Jaxon loves his Curious George monkey, everytime the show is on he goes and grabs it and snuggles it through the whole show. Tyler does it too, because Jaxon does.

I still can't believe I got this smile on camera because usually he is saying "cheese" which means the smile is usually cheesy.

Who needs chairs?

Today I was upstairs doing some cleaning and some laundry so I started a show for the boys. They both started out in chairs, but I think they thought this was better. Funny Boys, they just make me laugh.

Boys will be boys!

So this morning my boys decided they wanted to play in the front room together. They were playing way to nice together and laughing. This is what I found when I checked on them.

Christmas comings and goings!

We had such a wonderful holiday season. Here are just a few of the fun things we got to do. We hope each of you also had a wonderful Christmas.

Tyler at the Jacobsen family Christmas party.

My nephew Adam loves Jaxon, he was so thrilled that I took this picture.

Some of Tyler and Jaxon's cousins.

Christmas Eve at my parents watching The Polar Express with the boys.

I forgot to take pictures with this camera Christmas morning, so I took this one with their presents.

Christmas morning playing in the snow at my parents.

Blake, Jaxon, and Spencer laying on the pillows great-grandma Eddington made for them at the Eddington family Christmas party.

This is my niece Evalyn, my sister-in-law claims she hasn't been able to get her smile on camera, but I got one.

New Year's Eve we went bowling with the Jacobsen's. Tyler had so much fun.

Cruise!

I was so blessed this past week to be able to go on a cruise with Jason, my kids got to play with their Grandma and Grandpa Eddington. Thank you mom and dad for watching them for us. It was so wonderful. We went to celebrate our 5 year anniversary. We flew into Miami and boarded the ship Norwegian Jewel. It is amazing how big these ships actually are!

This is our ship we were on the 9th floor.

This is us with the Miami coast line behind us.

One on the wonderful sunsets we witnesses, this one is from the day we left. The day we left 4 other ships did also, here is one of them.

Our first stop was in Grand Cayman.

In Grand Cayman we went to a turtle farm. They had so many turtles big and small. It was so fun to get to hold them.

Next in Grand Cayman we got to swim with the sting rays. It was so amazing! There are so many of them and they would just swim all around you. We got to hold them and they told us if with kissed them we would have 7 years good luck. I hope they were right!!

Our next stop was Cozumel Mexico.

In Cozumel we had the awesome experience of parasailing. The view was absolutely breathtaking. This is Jason at the beginning.

This is Michelle.

Here we are in Cozumel, of course at a Mexican restuant. We had such a wonderful time on our cruise. It was sad to come home, but we were glad to see our boys again. I would definely recommend a cruise to anyone. They are so worth it, you get to experience so many great things.

Thanksgiving Weekend!

What a wonderful weekend we had, we had wonderful food, weather, and fun. This weekend really made me realize how thankful I am for my family and for the opportunity I have to be a mom to my wonderful boys. Also for my wonderful husband. I love all my family and am so thankful for each of them. This year we went to my parents for Thanksgiving. I don't know if I really remember a Thanksgiving when the kids could play outside with just a jacket. They all had so much fun, and I know the adults liked the quiet inside the house for some time. It was wonderful. Thanks mom and dad for a wonderful holiday. Jaxon loved to be outside he cried when we had to go in, I love this picture.
This picture cracks me up because it shows how hard both of them were trying to make a basket. Tyler played in the dirt forever, he even stayed out there when the rest of the boys left. We couldn't get him to leave.

Of course we took the opportunity to put up our Christmas tree. We let Tyler stay up a little bit later than Jaxon. He was so excited the whole time we were putting up the lights, he just kept talking and talking, and running and having so much fun. We loved that he was so excited for it.

As you can see Tyler decorated the bottom part of the tree, he was so proud of his work.

Dairy Queen

On Saturday my boys and me went shopping with my parents and when we were done we stopped at Dairy Queen. We decided to get Jaxon his own dilly bar and he was in heaven. In the photo you can tell he did not want to stop eating it. Thanks mom and dad for the fun night!

Halloween! Of Course!

For Halloween we decided to head to Perry and go to a truck-or-treat with my brother and sister in law and their kids. I love trunk or treats because it is just the right amount of time for kids and they get lots of candy.

Jaxon is the lion, Blake is a boxer, Tyler is Superman, and Adam is a pirate. Oh yeah I can't forget Jana who is a banana, and my brother Ryan is Indiana Jones (sorry I cut off you head)

The kids after the trunk or treat wishing they could eat every piece of candy right then and there.

Jaxon the not so scary lion!
