BOY OH BOY! It's another BOY!

Today Anna and I headed out early in the morning for our Doctor appointment in Virginia, MN. We had a 9:15 ultrasound appointment. We spent about an hour with the technition to find out we have a super healthy and well growing Baby Boy coming our way! Anna Slapped me and said "well at least we got Maggie". We will be a house filled with boys and sports, and loving it. We are so glad to find out that the baby was healthy, growing well, and all areas of development that can be checked were right on target with what they would want to see. The due date remained the same at June 25th, and the surgery date will most likly be the middle of June. Thanks for your prayers over this appointment. Please continue to pray for Anna's sanity as she lives with all us BOYS!

The Boys New Ice House!

Today the boys picked up a new Ice House and have spent a lot of time playing and trying to nap in it. They have played with Dad in the ice house, with Mom, and had Maggie in it.  They had the most fun playing Legos and Mom and Dad could not see the huge mess they had.p

Lovin' Maggie!

We are having a blast with our little girl Maggie! She has been such a fun addition to our family. We are quite impressed by her already. She is beginning to run to the door when she needs to go potty! She loves going in the car with us to do errons around town and she is sleeping through the night! The boys love her but are still learning how to play gently with her. She gets bugged by them when they act wild and crazy! She tries to hides in her kennel to get away from the craziness! Eventually Maggie will adjust and the boys will get better with her! For now, we are still learning!

4 Months Pregnant and Racing a 5k!

Image
The annual Freeze Your Gizzard 5k took place this morning in International Falls. I decided to see what my pregnant body could handle in the -14 degree weather today and didn't do too bad! I took 1st place for woman and 4th overall! Though my time was a lot slower then normal, averaging 7 minutes per mile, I felt great! The race was a bit icy today which made roads difficult, but overall a decent race with around 200 runners running! I had a blast and I will always remember racing a 5k with baby #3!

Our Puppy Maggie!

I know many of you are going to be shocked by our recent purchase! Yes, we did welcome little cockapoo Maggie into our home yesterday! We all absolutely love her and think she is so cute and funny! Kyle and I drove to Hewitt MN to pick her up and we had a blast meeting Maggie's mommy, daddy, grandma and siblings! I had the chance to talk to Maggie's mommy and asked her if it would be ok to take her little girl home with us. She gave me a big kiss on the cheek, which I think was our ok. Maggie was a champ all the way home in the car as she slept on my lap. Kyle and I were even able to eat lunch without her even noticing! The boys warmed up to her quickly and already love bossying her and showing her around the house. Maggie woke up at 3:00AM, 4:30AM, and 6:00AM this morning. Not too bad for a first night! Although I know we are a bit on the crazy side for this adorable little bundle, we are thrilled to have little Maggie. HERE'S MAGGIE!!!! YOU"LL JUST LOVE HER!

Uncle Jesse's Wedding!

Image
This weekend we headed to Fargo to be apart of my younger brothers wedding! Kyle was a groomsman, Andrew was the ringbearer and I was a bridemaid! Micah wore a tux matching Andrew's but was not apart of the wedding party. We had so much fun watching Andrew and seeing how serious he took his special role in the wedding. When he came down the aisle he gave uncle Jesse a BIG hug and smiled so proudly. It was precious for Kyle and I to watch our handsome boy walk down to aisle so dignified and not a bit shy! The wedding was beautiful and the reception was a blast watching Andrew and Micah dancing with grandparents, great grandparents, uncles and aunts! Kyle and I even got a few dances in without any interuptions! We are so excited for Uncle Jesse and Aunt Sarah and their new life together. Here are a few pictures of us this weekend.
