scrapping

Needed a few hours tonight to spend scrapbooking - it's only Monday and feels like it should be Wednesday! So while Bobby & Mason played hockey in the kitchen this is what I did! Love watching those two play - we picked up Mason a "real" hockey stick at REA this weekend - best $10 we have ever spent, I think -- it has kept him entertained for HOURS already!

"MOMMY, BALL NO, HOCKEY!!!"

I really cant even remember back to the begining of February to really say what we have been busy with this month... but it surely has been BUSY! Can't believe we already to in for my 4-month checkup next week! Seems like just last week we were @ our first appt! Been doing much better now that the 2nd trimester has started- Im still sick every now and then but not several times every day like I was earlier! Things are looking up!

We have both been pretty busy at work - Bobby is gone to Fargo tonight-tomorrow for training.

Valentine's day Bobby & I went to the Bronze Boot to eat (it's where we met!!!); he wrote me a beautiful poem! Not only did we get to see a lot of our old co-workers but also fan into some of my cousins, and two of our very good friends M&D!

Last weekend we went down to St. Cloud for the Sioux hockey game - we got to see my grandparents who live down there too. We had been planning on spending the night and then going to watch the Daytona 500 @ our friends' the next day, but since they were predicting such a terrible storm we ended up leaving St. Cloud at 11:30 that night and Bobby drove all night - we got home at 4:30AM Sunday morning!

Tuesday night we went to watch the ND State Basketball Tournaments at the Betty. I had never been to see a game @ the Betty before... When we got there, Mason was NOT impressed that we were not there for a hockey game. He was yelling "MOMMY, BALL NO, HOCKEY!!!" Once he got his box of popcorn and the game started though he calmed down and now wants to watch "Ball" on TV whenever we flip through channels. (and ps: he ate the ENTIRE box of popcorn himself!)

Off to watch re-runs of Friends and then to bed!

12 weeks

On Friday, we hit the *12 week* marker with baby b! Had our first dr. appointment on Thursday, everything checked out OK! Got to hear the heartbeat for the first time - 158 bpm - not sure if that means boy or girl?!?! We will find out March 31st!. I am sure ready for this first trimester sickness all the time to be over. Hope it is very soon!!!

We have been homebodies this weekend - Mason hasnt been feeling the greatest (and neither have I for that matter...) I did make a new strap for my camera yesterday; Im so happy with how it turned out. Today after church we might try to venture to Grand Forks to pick up some needed things at Target (and maybe some not-so-needed things too) and groceries. No plans for Superbowl tonight. Not really that excited about it - maybe for the commercials, but it seems like the past few years none of them have really been that funny. Or at least not funny enough for me to remember. I do like the new red bull commercial though - makes me laugh every time!

I am in love with this picture of Maosn and Bobby - melts my heart! I just love watching the two of them play together. Well, it is 8AM - I think I hear Mason singing away in bed!

Mason's bday party

Here are a few pics from Mason's birthday party that we had last Sunday. Bobby & I gave him a "dance along" Mickey - Mickey "moon walks" and moves his hands up and down. It was so fun to watch him dance along! I have a video to post too but will have to do it another day...

Tomorrow is our FIRST baby appointment! I am super excited, and a little nervous. Not really sure why I am nervous - we have been through this all before! Hopefully after tomorrow I can be done with being convinced we are having twins... I remember the first time we heard Mason's heart beat - how I teared up at the realization that there was a little person growing inside of me. Can't wait to experience that again tomorrow afternoon!!!
