So this was 19 weeks with Will

And this is our second peanut at 19 weeks!

I just wanted to see if these pregnancies were looking the same and compare if I was bigger this time around since it's my second. I guess I'm on track for now; (except my bump shape looks different) we'll see about later on. Hope I don't sound obsessed with myself. I'm just curious and I want to document every pregnancy as well as I did with Will

Anyways we find out next week what we are having and I'm taking a pole so leave your Vote!

If I've seemed off lately...

I don't know how many people still read my blog so I guess this is like a test! Greg, Will and I are expecting another addition to the family on January 31st. That makes me 17 weeks along! We are so excited for this little one and honestly quite nervous too. I know it's going to be difficult having two kids almost exactly two years apart, but we will do it. I'm finally starting to feel better, nausea was bad. I'm still super emotional; like I cry at every TV program commercial and story I read to Will! I also get really angry which I'm trying to control better because I look ridiculous. I know Will has no idea, but I'm sure he will know something is up when my belly continues to get bigger(already feeling big!). We will find out what we are having next month sometime! I can't wait to know so that I can start on some projects. Wish I had a more fun way to share this, but well I guess its fun in and of itself.

Here is our captured picture perfect reaction, haha just kidding!

San Fran

 This is our trip to San Fran, we had such a good time with the family and Will loved playing with his cousins! It was also nice to cool down a bit from this Colorado heat.

                                                       In the back yard for a safari!

                                                      Such a big boy I love him so much!

 This is my mom's dad, we call his great grandpapa, Will loved him and would share everything with him, even his binki!

                                         beautiful ocean view, past the fog can't you see it

 Papa, papa! couldn't get enough papa. every morning he would straight to my dad's door and bang on the door then go to the guitar(pictured above) and pound on that. He was a little crazy about it!

So even if he got trampled on, Will would have to be on the trampoline with his cousins. I was a nervous wreck about it, but he was having the time of his life! they had to take a break for snacks though, of course!

I love my mom! Happy Mother's Day mom, now I understand what it means to be a mommy!

Estes Park

So Greg and I were able to go on a little getaway trip this past weekend while Greg's parents watched Will! This was my first time away from Will, and it was only two days, but I still missed him! This break was much needed and I'm so thankful to my in-laws for taking care of Will.

Rocky Mountain National Park(elv. 11,000+ Ft.)

It was so beautiful in Rocky Mountain National Park! And cold and windy, hence the hair. Or its just my glamor shot! This drive is so beautiful, we must be getting old because we like to take long drives. Its was very peaceful and inspiring to see all this beauty. I felt like Maria from the sound of music. I wanted to sing the hills are alive, seriously!

The Stanley Hotel, The Shining was not filmed here, but this is where Stephen King got his inspiration for the book, it is very old and creaky; not to mention creepy! You can hear everything through the walls. I didn't sleep very much because I am a pansy, and we watched just a little of the Shining (which they have a whole channel dedicated to playing the movie 24/7) and that was enough to freak me out. Combine that with missing Will and I was a wreck at night! Its a beautiful building though, lots of weddings here.

Greg carved our name in wood so we will always remember... so cheesy I know!

Greg thought this was so funny that there was Chinese food right near a dog grooming place, not very appetizing.

I don't why I'm super posing in this picture, oh well look at that view! beautiful place. It reminds me a little of Lake Tahoe, which is dear to me from my childhood. Love the hubs for taking me here, so sweet!

Whats up!

We had such a fun time with our friends Mike and Leslie a few weeks ago! I think these two are so cute together and they were having a blast playing together. They were deliriously happy! Watch the hands Will!

I've been spending time every week, at my in-laws, working on this quilt for Will, and its almost done, I can't wait!!! I've been learning so much from her it has been great, especially since they're leaving on there mission soon : ( We love them!

Will is still doing two naps a day, kinda sorta. We have loving the warm weather and practicing our animal sounds. Since we see so many dogs here we have got ruff ruff down. And of course Greg's son knows the word Ball already. He also can't stop saying Dada, little stinker, but I love it, love him soo much.

Warning this post will talk about feminine things!!

So just as I was bragging about not getting my period for almost two years! Of course I got it! Haha has anyone else had this long of a break, I'm just curious?! It literally started the day I stopped nursing completely. And I feel like my cramps are stronger than before pregnancy? Please share your experience!

One Year Older!

Here is the first birthday party! I went for a sailor theme for little sailor! And my sweet mother-by-love let me use their house for the party, and helped with everything!

Jayne also made the cake for Will, yes those are Swedish fish, so cute!

I got this idea online and so happy with how it turned out! Those are just soup cans with twain on it.

Here is how the cake eating went:

hummm...

Just digging in:

I thought he would love to just put both hands in and make a mess, but this kid didn't want to waste any crumbs on his hands so he just went straight for it with his mouth! So great!

What?

more, don't mind if I do

Whoa, sugar high..

The party was a blast thanks to all those who came and helped! I do have pictures of the gift opening, but not on my camera.
I love this boy and these past twelve months have been so sweet can't wait for the next year!

11 months

I can't believe this kid almost a year! Where does the time go?

He is almost walking and has sixth teeth. We had a great time during Christmas and being with our own cute little family. Will could care less about his Christmas presents, and loved eating the wrapping paper. When I come into his room and get him from his nap, he is so sweet and smiley and it melts my heart. I love this little boy so much, and even though its hard to see him grow so fast; I love watching him learn about the world and every little thing in it!

My mom was able to come for a pre-Christmas visit and we had a blast! We love all that she does for us and how much she loves Will. This picture sums it up nicely.
