It's a GIRL!?!?

Well.....until mommy has another confirmation at her April 19th ultrasound! We went to Sneak Peek ultrasound in Londonderry on Saturday so we could take Evan along with us to find out the gender of the baby. The technician was sure it was a girl but mommy is not convinced! She will not buy any pink until it is confirmed at her medical "big" ultrasound on April 19th. Until then.....folks!

Family Day

Yesterday, we went to grandma and Peter's house for some fun in the sun. The kids ran around the yard, played in the sandbox, went on a hike, and "rode" on the tractor that does not work. We had a nice little cookout that Peter and grandma cooked up for us!





We celebrated Jeremy's birthday after dinner and all enjoyed cupcakes!


We capped off the night with a fire and roasted marshmallows to make smores! Yum!!


Jacob really enjoyed the fire and staying up late!
The older boys had to take a bath before hitting the road...they were dirty and full of sand!

St. Patty's Festivities

Last night we headed to one of Matt's best friend's mother's house for their annual St. Patty's Day party. This was the second time we have gone. This time, Evan got to partake in the traditions!

All the kids helped out in the raffle. Mrs. Charlebois is so good with them!
Here is Evan opening a gift he got...Mrs. Charlebois gets the kids St. Patty's Day books
The kids munched on chicken nuggets while the adults ate corned beef and cabbage, of course!

These two have been good friends since elementary school!
The kids had a great time staying up late and playing in the "kids room" watching movies...
Look mom! A shamrock cookie!!
We pulled in the driveway at home at 10pm...to find this!

We had a great time! Can't wait for next year!!

Making Art

Yesterday, we broke out the smock and worked on spring flowers. I cut them, Evan glued them. Then he went on to paint...one of his favorite things to do!

Weekend Weather

This past weekend we had beautiful weather! We enjoyed hours of fun outside. Evan got to wear a lighter jacket and play with his wagon and cars outside. We even broke out the chalk and wrote all over the driveway! Can't wait for more weekends like this!


Sleeping Angel

I found Evan last Friday sleeping in the bed like this. He loves his Dollar Store baby that he sleeps with every night. Whatever makes him happy :-)

Wind Storm 2010



Well this, is a long overdue post about the wind storm we had. I hadn't uploaded the pics on the computer. We lost power in the storm for 4 days. Just the same as last year's ice storm. This year we bought a generator, thankfully! Thanks for Jay on helping us get one!

We passed time by having a get together at Heather and Matt's one night then having a pizza party with Christian and Dan another night. We kind of have a fun time during these times roughing out the power outages.

Here is a tree that fell in our yard near our deck....
Our driveway full of debris
The rest of the pics are storm damage from Grant Rd, Ashswamp Rd, and Camp Lee Rd...all around us which caused the outage.





Update on Baby #2



Had a routine check up today for baby #2 and had an ultrasound. He/she was bouncing all around in there and also waved to us! Very cute! Measuring around 13 weeks but Dr. Turer says 12 weeks 5 days right now. Big ultrasound scheduled for April 19th! Mom is healthy, baby looks good, and mom is feeling better FINALLY! Second trimester, here we come!
