Welcome Home DAD!!!

After a month of Mike being gone he is home again safe and sound. My husband is a real trooper. After already flying for 26 hours he arrived home for his mom, Judson and I to pick him up at the base and head straight to the Seattle airport to get on another plane and head to Ohio for a friends wedding. I was so excited he made it home and was able to go to the wedding and that we were able to have a weekend away together. I did indeed feel bad that he was getting on another plane but he did it with a smile on his face. Judson also had a great time with his grandma while we were gone. Thanks Bonnie for coming over and watching him. Most of all thanks Mike for being a great sport.

WELCOME HOME!!!!

Sunshine!!!!

After about seven months of nonstop tian the warm weather we had this weekend was welcomed by all with open arms. Judson and I were so excited to see the sun and be able to spend time outside that we were outside all weekend. We spent our time at the parks, doing yard work, having water fights, swimming in his new pool, and going to the Northwest Trek. The northwest Trek is a wildlife park zoo place. Judson enjoying seeing all the animals and the tram ride that takes you out to see more animals in their natural habitat. Judson loved the bears and has told everyone all about the moose, deer, elk, and bison that he saw as well. It is just too bad the sun was only out for a few days and we go back to rain tomorrow. We will just have to wait patiently and look forward to the next time the sun decides to peak through the clouds!!

IT"S A ??????????

I am not convinced as the little person in my belly is not very cooperative when it comes to an ultrasound. After convincing my doctor at an appointment to do an ultrasound and tell me what she thought I was having a few days before my big ultrasound, she went back and forth from boy to girl and settled with boy. She apologized for not knowing for certain since the baby was not cooperating and she could not get a clear picture.

I was sad since I really just want a girl. So the day of the ultrasound came which was a few weeks ago and once again the baby did not cooperate. When the ultrasound tech asked if we wanted to know the sex, I said, "If it is a boy no and a girl yes." She looked at me a little funny but just went on with the ultrasound. Once again not much cooperation from the baby :( First the umbilical cord was between the legs, then hands down there, and then legs closed. Needless to say I was getting a little anxious as I just wanted to know for sure. The tech finally came out with the sex and I must admit I am still not convinced. It is a good thing I will have a couple more ultrasounds before I am due. Hopefully we will get a clear shot on one of them.

So for now the verdict is: IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mothers Day

Well this Mothers Day was much like all the Mothers Days I have had since becoming a mom. I have gotten used to spending the day with Judson as Mike always seems to get sent somewhere for every Mothers Day. Judson and I had a great day together just playing and spending time together. I asked him Saturday night if he was going to bring me breakfast in bed he looked at me a little puzzled and said by myself. Well Sunday morning rolled around and Judson came in my room to wake me up and asked where is your breakfast. I thought it was cute that he even remembered me telling him that.

I hope every Mother had a great Mothers Day!!!!

BaSeBaLl

Who ever thought coaching baseball for threeand four year olds was a good idea must not have been thinking straight. Now really it is cute but I don't think Mike really knew what he was getting himself into. The parents are supposed to help so it should be easier but there are always the parents that don't want to get involved. Well all would be ok if Mike was here but since he is gone for a month guess who that puts in charge. I would not mind if it wasn't for the belly of mine that is growing daily and kids that don't really listen. Luckily there is another dad that comes that took over last night. I still got involved and interacted with Judson and helped other kids out but at least I was not in charge. Hurry home Mike we miss you!!!

Visit from Friends!!

A few weeks ago we had some friends come to visit from North Carolina. Judson and his girlfriend Ellie were very happy to see each other and actually got along pretty well. I was very happy to be able to see Sheree and spend time with her and be abe to see Aspen her little baby.

Kids do the craziest things!!!!!!!!

Where kids get some of the ideas in their heads is beyond me. Last night Judson was in his bathroom, which I thought he was actually going to the bathroom until I heard mom come here. I walk in there to Judson sitting on the counter with the sink full of water and his feet in it. Wait!!!!!! It gets better. He said mom, "This is like a swimming pool." Then proceeded to sit in the sink. Needless to say water went all over the bathroom. I decided to clean the water up instead of taking pictures. I just wonder where that idea came from. Must have been something his dad would have done as a kid.

TULIP FESTIVAL

Last weekend Mike, Judson and I went to the Annual Tulip Festival. It is about two hours from our house so we decided lets make a trip out of it. We left Friday afternoon and drove up to spend the night.We stopped at the outlets and did a little shopping then went to the hotel for some fun. Mike and Judson went swimming which Judson could not get enough of. Saturday morning we ate some breakfast then headed out to the tulip fields. I have never seen so many tulips in my life. They had tulips of every color and shape really. Some tulips looked as though they should be roses but they were tulips. It was a great time especially since the weather cooperated and we had sunshine. Check out the slide show full of picture after picture of tulips.
