Peterson Ridge Rumble


















Last weekend we went to Sisters to watch Mike and Kristin race. We stayed at the "llama hotel". I took plenty of pictures, just not of the race. Maybe Mike will put some up on his blog! I still think these are cute even though they are not action shots of the athletes! Great job, Mike and Kristin!



Cousins


My mom and I went out to lunch with my cousin, Jolene quite a while back. We were brave and took all of the kidlets with us. I meant to post these a while ago. Will really loves his cousin, Mason and talks about him all of the time. I especially love the cheesy photo of the two of them together!

Ultrasound

The whole family went with me while I had my ultrasound. Ella was in Mike's arms most of the time twirling her hair and sucking her thumb. Will was a little more spunky. At one point he was looking at the baby on the screen and playing peek-a-boo. Afterwards he wanted to know when he could hold the baby. I was happy to see a beating heart. The baby wasn't particularly active since it was 10 in the morning. I usually feel the most action as I am laying down to sleep at night. There's always something special about seeing the baby inside of you during an ultrasound, a reminder of the miracle that occurs within a woman's body. I'm anxious to meet this new life. Oh yeah, in case you're wondering...it's a girl! Woo-hoo! I get to experience the joy of sisters! Will is already such a great big brother to Ella I'm sure he'll be great with this new little one too. It's a lot of fun this time around with Will because we can actually talk to him about the new arrival and he can understand more of what is happening. All in all a very exciting and busy time of our lives. We feel very blessed.
