Burke is T-W-O!!

Burke turned 2 yesterday on June 19th!!  We had a family birthday party for him last weekend on June 13th.  Our little guy got some great gifts.  We got him a set of golf clubs.  He absolutley loves hitting balls in the yard with Paul.  We just took them in to be sized for him.  He's going to be a great golfer :)  Burke also recieved a sandbox, a horse tire swing, clothes, and lots of outside toys.  Burke loves it all!

Last night on Burkes actual Birthday we went to our friends Jeff and Jen's wedding.  Burke was very well behaved as usual!!

So I'm a bit behind on my blog...  Here's a picture of my rapidly expanding belly 2 weeks ago!  My next Dr. appt is on June 21st for my 25 week check up.  I've been really lucky that its been an easy pregnancy (same way with Burke).  Were heading out to the beach now so I'll try to post some pictures of Burke later today or tomorrow. 

It's a ...

Yesterday we had our ultrasound.  Burkes going to have a baby brother!  The Dr said he looked healthy :)  His estimated weight is 14 oz.

I'm on the search for boy names now!

Happy Mothers Day!

We want to wish all of you mama's a very Happy Mothers Day!  I can't believe in a couple months I'll be a mom of 2!!

Bye Bye Bug

We sold the BUG!!  The new owner picked it up yesterday.  It was bitter sweet.  I had to get a couple pictures of Burke in it!  I loved that car but we out grew it.  We replaced it with a white Honda Pilot.  Now we have plenty of room for all of Burkes and the babys things.

Movement!

   So I'm 16 weeks ago now and last night I definitely felt the baby moving around.  I had an ultrasound at 8 weeks, heard the heart beat at 13 weeks (heart rate was 155)  but now that I can feel that little boy or girl moving around it feels more real that baby # 2 is on the way. 
   I switched Dr's.  Now I'm seeing a new Dr that just came to LP.  His name is Dr Elshoreya.  My next appt is on Monday the 26th.  Then we'll schedule the 20 week ultrasound to find out what we're having.  That appt will be in the middle of May.  In case you're wondering we'll share the gender but not the names!

Happy Anniversary!!!

Can you believe it's already been 3 years.
Laurie,

I couldn't ask for a more loving wife, a better best friend, or more kick ass mother for my child. Burke, baby, and I are so glad to have you in our lives.

We love you!!!

A MESS!

This is what happened when I updated the blog and stalked others yesterday!!  I should have known when Burke was being so quite.  Burke got into the spice cabinet and used the cream of tarter to decorate the livingroom.  He had a trail of white powder all over the livingroom and dinningroom plus he got the furniture too.  So if I learned my lesson I'll only update when he's sleeping :) 

Michael Buble

Paul and I went to the Michael Buble concert in March.  The concert was REALLY good.  Naturally 7 performed first for about an hour.  They are an a cappellla group.  Michael Buble performed for about 1 1/2 hours.  He was really entertaining. We had great tickets.  It was a  nice night out!

Yo Gabba Live

This morning we drove to Ft Wayne to see Yo Gabba Live Party in my City!  Burke was a bit tired from the 2 hour drive there but he still enjoyed the show.  He got his second wind when they gave ballons out :)  Biz Markie was the guest star to do 'Biz's Beat of the Day' and the Aquabats performed!  He was pretty quiet taking everything in but in the car after his quick nap he was saying Gabba and naming the characters while checking out his souvenirs.
