NEWS UPDATE! :)

Goodness, im bad at all the blogging stuff. Life has been so busy lately... by the time i put Kaitlyn to bed, all i want to do is crawl in bed myself!

So to catch up from the holiday season...

Here's our annual Christmas Card picture for 2009! Merry Christmas!! :)


Kaitlyn LOVES baby Jesus... and i'm glad. :) She can also name Mary (maaaree) and Joseph (joseeff). I love it!


Christmas Eve in her jammies... they say "What Santa doesn't bring me, Grandma will!" Oh, so very, very true! :)


Christmas day family photo!

This is one of the MANY toys Kaitlyn got this year... her very own 'Dirt Devil' "baccumm"... haha. She loves it!



Christmas was a lot of fun this year - she was MUCH more into opening presents this year than last... and much more into playing with the toys she got. Although, i think next year is when she'll really enjoy herself. :)

Well, besides Christmas.... we've been busy with other things. Such as DOCTOR APPOINTMENTS! Matt, Kaitlyn, and myself are SOOOOOO EXCITED to announce that we're expecting baby #2!

Andddd... here's how we told our parents this time!

We waited until Christmas and wrapped a present "To: Kaitlyn From: Jesus"... and let that be her last present she opened. We made both sets of parents sit with her and open it... It was a T-Shirt saying "This little sweetie is going to be a BIG SISTER!" - and of course, they were all happy! :)

We're due August 4th and are thrilled beyond belief! I'm not really looking forward to being insanely HUGE in the summer months, butttt.... ill make it! :) This pregnancy has been a little different than Kaitlyn... i'm craving different things. With Kaitlyn i craved citrus. Orange popsicles, oranges, orange juice, apples, etc. This one? CHOCOLATE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my goodness. I'm going to be the size of a whale come July. I'm also a LOT more tired with this one than i remember with Kaitlyn. I asked the doctor about it and he said "Julie... you have a toddler this go 'round. Of course you'll be more tired." Ok. But going to bed at 8:30-9pm every night and waking up at 7am.... and STILL needing a nap during the day? Let's hope this first trimester ends soon. :)

Here's Kaitlyn sporting her new shirt...

So thats our big news for this year! Please pray for us if we ever cross your mind... It is still so early in pregnancy.

Love to all! :)
