Easter Bunny!

Well what can I say. I wanted to take Alexandra to the mall to sit on the Easter Bunnies lap, but Dustin said no freak in a bunny costume is holding my daughter. So the good husband & daddy that he is, he dressed up in my old halloween costume & let me take some pictures! Gotta love this!

Also 1 month old picture

Alexandra's 1 month old picture...

We just won't leave her alone!

Getting ready for Easter..

Talking to Daddy :)

DADDY FIXES EVERYTHING..

I have to say that if Dustin was not around in the evenings sometimes I would rip all of my hair out & scream. Alexandra seems to get the most gas in the evening.. so she will scream & cry & I cannot do anything to calm her down. Dustin has some special touch that makes her burp, fart, poop & calm down.... everytime! SO I have decided to keep him around, he sure does come in handy!

1 month old today!!!

Alexandra is already 1 month old! She is still sweet as pie! We are loving every second of this parenthood stuff!
(not sure why the picture says 4-5-06, it was taken today)

I will get some more pictures from today on this blog!

Enjoy!

Almost 1 month old....

OUR NEW ADDITION!!!

I am sure that everyone has already been told.....We had our baby!!

Alexandra Lynn was born on 3-6-06 @ 7:10 pm. She weighed 7lbs 2 oz & was 19 1/2 inches long.
She is absolutely wonderful!! Labor was way better than I was expecting, well with all the horror stories that I was told throughout my pregnancy. ;) From start to finish I was in labor for about 17 hours. I only pushed for about 1 hour! NOT BAD!!! I lucked out. My little girl was easy on me!
We are all doing great! She is being perfect.....could not have asked for a more perfect pregnancy, labor, delivery & baby!
I will be sure to keep everyone updated on Alexandra!!!

She also has 4 images on the swedish website. So www.swedish.org, then you click on the women & childbirth thing I think, then I had her at first hill. Then it goes by her name :)

Nothing too new... just keeping you posted :)

I thought I would just fill everyone in on how things are going! I am doing great....about 4 weeks left! I can't believe that I was getting nervous with 10 weeks, not it is 4! It is amazing how fast it goes by! I have been a very lucky person though! I have enjoyed my pregnancy!! :) Just had a check up yesterday. Says everything seems great! I am measuring right where I should be & the baby sounds perfect! (of course) She said that she expects me to deliver a 7-7 1/2 lb baby. I can handle that.... I sure hope! Everyone needs to cross their fingers that I have her the 1st-5th of march. I want to have her early, the 16th is just too far into the month. So I have decided when she should come! :)
Dustin is doing great! He is just working & helping me around the house. (about time!) He also has done stuff to the babies room that I have been nagging about! So it is almost done. We just need to take the closet doors off & move some stuff around. It is so much fun getting everything ready, I just feel so unprepared!
Anyways..... That is my update! Just want everyone to know that things are progressing as they should & we are doing great!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

I hope that everyone had a wonderful christmas & a fun & safe new years eve! I cannot believe that it is already 2006! WOW~ time flies!
Christmas was great! Can't believe next christmas I will have a little girl to spoil rotten! :) I got what I was beggin' for, call me crazy, but I wanted & needed a new vacuum! Yes, Dustin listened & got it for me! I was very happy about that. That was probably my very best present! ha! Love it soo much! We had a wonderful time at his parents house on christmas eve, then at my parents house on christmas! It is always great getting everyone together!

To think only 10 weeks left until my due date! Holy Moses! ( i think i can, i think i can)

To sum my little blog entry: I am great, baby is great & Dustin is great! Couldn't ask for a better start to the new year!

Hope the new year is treating everyone great!

(sorry the pics are all wierd, I am trying I am trying!)

UPDATES...

Sorry Carla! I know I should keep up on this....so yes, today I will let you know what is going on in our lives. :)

Nothing too knew & exciting! We have just been trying to get ready for christmas, decorating, buying gifts etc. I love christmas! Puts me in a good mood to wrap presents & stick them under the tree.
We are starting to get more & more used to the fact that in little over a couple months we will be mommy & daddy to a little girl! I have been doing great, feeling great (besides being tired.) The baby is just perfect! We had an ultra sound yesterday & she is right on track & healthy as can be! I am getting super excited for everything, but then somedays I scare the hell right out of myself.
Dustin has just been working & then hunting on the weekends, then putting up with me! I have been pretty emotional, but I have to say he is coping well! :)

I hope that everyone is doing wonderful! I will try to stay on top of this blog!

Well this is my update, sorry it has taken so stinkin long!

Hope everyone has a MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

BABY NEWS..

Dustin & I went to our ultrasound appointment today. Our baby is just perfect! Everything looks great! Nothing of any concern.......just a perfect baby girl. My due date is still the same...I am right on track! March 16th!!!!
Now we are excited to start to get the baby some clothes & get the room going! Just lots of great things to look forward to! :)

It's Coming......

Well to say the least........time is ticking away! I have my ultra-sound appt. made for October 12th at 8:00 am! We should find out if we are having a little boy or little girl! SO EXCITING! I will keep everyone posted!........ I know I know... I need to get some more pictures in here, I will work on it!

Besides that, nothing too new. Dustin is working m-sat like 12 hour days. So he does not get home until like 9:00 at night. BUMMER! I guess we just have to flow with it, winter is coming & we all know construction jobs!

Everyone & everything is just great! Family is good! Just had our 2005 reunion over labor day! It was tons of fun seeing & catching up with everyone! Really hard to sit around and watch everyone toss them back though! I will make up for it next year! :) I will get some pictures in here from it! (sometime)

Well there is my update.........everyone take care!

BIG NEWS....

Dustin & I found out that we are going to have a baby!! I am 10 weeks along now. We have knows since the 4th of July, but wanted to keep it to ourselves until the doc said that everything was fine! My due date is March 16th, give or take 3 weeks.

For the most part I have felt fine....it is sort of like a dream still.

We are super excited! We are crossing our fingers for a little boy, but we will be happy with what we get! :)

I will keep everyone posted!

Updates

Well Dustin & I had a nice weekend. We first went to Hermiston Oregon, then to Eastern Washington to go fishing. It was nice & relaxing except for when I almost was eaten alive by the columbia river in oregon! It was the scariest thing I have been through ever! The waves were huge and they were coming from all directions, so.... we (as in me) decided to go in and not fish there! That is how we ended up in Moses Lake :) Other than that one horrible trama, the weekend was wonderful!
Other than that, nothing too new. Just been busy with weddings and parties of all sorts! We sold all of the puppies but one female that we are calling Daisy Mae. She is still for sale, but people just are not calling us on her. :(

That is what is going on with us! :) Hope that everyone enjoys their week!

THE PUPPIES....

Well these puppies keep getting cuter & cuter every single day! I am sure getting tired of cleaning up after them & stuff! They are TONS of work! We have a couple boys sold and a few girls sold. We need to get rid of them all! They are able to go home on the 15th of this month! Holy COW, that is close! Lots of calls....I wish I could just keep them all! I am going to miss them!

Me & Dustin... 

Cute as a button.... :) 

My Moose.......gotta love him! 

Puppies growing fast...

Now the puppies are 5 weeks old and as cute as ever! They are now playing & running around like crazy! You go out to feed them or just to play and get licked, chewed on and you cannot step anywhere! I put some pictures of them in! ENJOY!

playin... 

I could just squeeze her face off!! 

To the vet the girls go....
