The Results are in!

It's official the majority wins! It's a GIRL! We are really excited and yes everything looks perfect, she even stuck her tongue out for the camera. Lizzie suggested that we name her little sister but we have yet to come up with something better than that and actually agree on it. Girls names are really hard for us and we already used up the one that we both agree on. We are just happy to have a healthy little one on the way!

Fun Times!

The Zoo and some good friends what more could you want out of life? Yesterday we went to the Zoo with some of our friends here. We had a lot of fun and even got to pet the goats. It was a beautiful day, we are so lucky to have good friends. Thanks, Jen and Melissa!

Bubbles Anyone?

We haven't gotten the bubble machine out lately because I thought that it had gone to bubble machine heaven. But after a little tender love and care I was able to revive it and lo and behold it's like getting a new toy all over again. I really need to start hiding some of her toys for a few months. So she decided to perform for the camera I thought it was funny. I hope you do too!

Nothing really exciting!

We are gearing up for our big trip home on Saturday and we can't wait! Lizzie has been a little sick with a runny nose and Brian is getting ready for his test on Friday. We have discovered the joy of Christmas lights thanks to the Johnsons down the street. We literally wait all day until it is dark enough to go for a walk and see the lights. We have decided that we are going to miss the 70 to 80 degree weather down here. I am excited to see some snow but really where else can you enjoy Christmas lights in your shorts and a light jacket. We are keeping busy and the days are flying by. I love the holidays!

It's Raining, it's Pouring!

When it rains here it pours, and then it is over it is really quite amazing. Lizzie truly enjoyed this last rain storm yesterday. This was the first time I have seen her be that brave and by the end she and her dad were running through the puddles. It was great!

Yeah for Marriage!

I have been trying to find an official say and it might be a little early but as far as I can tell Arizona said yes to prop 102. Which means that gay marriage can never be legal here. It has been an interesting election but hopefully we can all look forward with hope of some big changes in our country.

Really the best dad EVER!

Last post I made a comment or two about how Lizzie is upset about no more Halloween, the first day we told her it was over she cried and every once in a while she would ask me if Halloween was still over. So determined to get her excited about Thanksgiving Brian set out to help her get over her Halloween blues. So far they have made a turkey, a pilgrim, a Thanksgiving potty chart, and a Thanksgiving name tag that she wears around her neck like her daddies name tag. It's no wonder she loves him so much. I can't help but like him a little too!

K Now What?

Halloween is officially over and we don't know what to do. Lizzie looks forward to our nightly walks to see all the Halloween lights she is going to be so disappointed tonight when we go out and all the lights are off and people have put their decor away. How do you explain to a 2 year old that Halloween is over and we have to wait a whole year for the next one?
We had a lot of fun yesterday Brian's school does a trick-or-treat party and we got a lot of candy this morning Lizzie is just going through her bag and opening everything to see what it is and if she likes it. She has decided anything that melts or gets stuck in her teeth isn't that cool so pretty much she sticks to suckers which is fine with me because then she eats less candy. After wards we went to one of our friends houses for soup and snacks she is a great cook. It we had started our night at 3:30 so by 8:30 all of us were done and we called it a night. I forgot my camera so we didn't get any actual Halloween pics but I figured that last week made up for it.

A little nap with her ghost!
