House Pics

We have been working on building our house this summer. It's been so fun, I had no idea how much I didn't know about building a house. My dad is our contractor and has been explaining everything to us along the way, along with going the extra mile to make sure we avoid any problems in the future, drainage, ect. We are building across the street from my parents, so it's been fun to be able to go out there 10 times a day and check out whats happening. We are hoping to be done next summer. It will definitely be worth the wait, our house is going to be awesome!!!

I'm going to try to post pics regularly so keep checking. More lumber coming Tuesday!

Cooking and swimming

I'm almost 38 weeks now, we are counting down the days! Here are some cooking and swimming pics!

Summer pics

Tim's mom (Nana) came to visit from Minnesota for 3 days in the middle of Aug. One of the highlights of the trip was our camping trip. The kids had a lot of fun and did a great job sleeping in the tent.

Presents from Nana

Lisa's family came to visit in July, we had a ton of fun with everyone and can't wait for their next visit.

The most exciting news has been starting on the house in June. I will hopefully post more pics tomorrow of the current progress we have made.

Some pool pics, it's been so nice to have a pool in the backyard this summer.

Summer has been busy and fun. We are sad that it is almost over but excited for our new adventures this fall. Carter will start preschool in 2 weeks and our baby is due in 4 weeks. We still don't have a name so send over your favorite boy names. We can't wait to see our new baby boy.

We are best friends with the Easter bunny

We have got a couple visits from the Easter bunny this month. Until the other day we just saw him out hopping around the yard, but after Carter expressed his desire to sit on the Easter Bunny's lap and be his best friend, the bunny came in and did just that. Carter was so excited and talks about the Easter bunny and his funny dance where he shakes his tail daily.

Lilly was too scared to take a picture with Easter bunny so here are some pictures of her playing.

Lilly copies everything Carter does lately. One of her favorite things to play is dinosaur. They say "rawr" and mommy runs away screaming. They think it's so funny.

Congratulations to Bobby and Kim

catch up time!

We moved to Yakima right before Thanksgiving and have been having a lot of fun here with family. We are living with my parents now because we are going to start building a house in the spring and need to save money for that. We will probably be living here for awhile because we are building the house ourselves. But we don't mind there house is huge and Bubby (Grandma) and Grandpa are so much fun.

Thank you Christine for driving with us the 30 hr trip from Ar while Carter and I were throwing up in the car the whole way. You're the best aunt and sister!

Carter loves Josh and loves that his cousin only lives an 1hr 1/2 away and gets to visit often.
