Emilie's Mother's Day Birthday at the Beach

Sunriver

We had a lot of fun in Sunriver this past week. I am pretty sure that Sunriver is my favorite place to vacation. Every time we go (we have been twice) I have so much fun. I am not sure why, but I just love it. We went with our friends the Eriksons. They have three boys similar ages to our kids. The kids played together all day long. Diane and I hung out and tried to do as little as possible. Erik and Randy went to the Deschutes Brewery, took the kids sledding, played frisbee golf (of course), went bike riding etc. The adults had a lot of fun playing games when the kids went to bed. The first morning we were there, we woke up to five inches of snow, the kids had a lot of fun playing in it.

Christmas

We had a lot of fun on Christmas this year. OUr tradition each year is making gingerbread. Autry remembered it from last year and was more than excited.
Autry got a skateboard shirt and a thing to color on, and Clare got some bracelets and a puppy. They were completely content with their presents all day long.

Getting our Christmas Tree Day

We got our Christmas Tree a couple weeks ago, but I have been late posting the pictures

I am going crazy

I did 50 jumping jacks to try and induce labor tonight...
nothing happened

Reasons I know I am getting near the end...

1.) I am humongous

2.) I just climbed into the attic, threw down all toys, clothes, etc. that weren't organized and organized them

3.) I vacuumed the van tonight in the dark

4.) I keep organizing and re-organizing all baby toys,clothes, burp clothes, blankets, etc.

5.) I am WAY more spacey then normal
ie. it took me 6 tries (no joke) the other day to run my debit card at Trader Joe's on Friday, because I kept hitting the wrong button.

6.) I set up the pack and play with the bassinet (adelaide's bed for the first few months) tonight, just to know what it looked like all set up

7.) Did I mention that I am humongous?

Seahawks Game!

Randy and I both LOVE the Seahawks. We were blessed by Randy's parents and they gave us there tickets to the game this Sunday. Someone gave them tickets and they chose not to go to the game beacuse it was suppose to rain. We were up there for the Sheperding a Child's Heart by Tedd Trip seminar, so they let us have their tickets!The seats we had were amazing. The only thing that could have made it better was me not being pregnant :). We took the ferry over from his parents house (we almost missed the ferry and I had to run about 300 yards, which just about killed me), walk about a mile to the stadim, walked through the tailgaters looking at all the CRAZY drunk fans, walked around, enjoyed being around fellow Seahawk fans(these are rare in portland), and watched the Seahawks crush St Louis 37-13. It is always great when Randy and I get to spend the day enjoying eachother, laughing, talking, and doing one of our favorite things (watching the Seahawks). By the end of the day...my hips were killing me, I was exhausted I could barely move, and felt like the baby was going to fall out of me at the end, (we still had a 3 and 1/2 hr car ride home) but, we had so much fun. Thanks Ann and Larry for the tickets, we had such a fun day.

Father's Day

ON Father's Day we went to Bonneville Dam. We had a picnic, fed the fish, and then went to rooster rock and played frisbee golf.

Pregnancy and being a slacker

SOrry I havn't updated the blog in a loooooooooooooong time. My mind is so scattered lately I can't keep anything together. It is however no excuse...it has been over two months since I last updated. So now I will add the pictures from the couple months, because contrary to what some might think we do take pictures.
