{good times in san diego...}

tatie and i had some fun in the california sun with my mom
and sisters last week. our excuse was going to cheer on my lil bro. and the t-wolves at the baseball field, but needless to say we found plenty to do.
tatie and his cousin caden had so much fun together. did i mention it was 75 degrees?






go t-wolves!

monkeying around with buddy max


sea world
MY happiest place on earth.
{warning picture overload...}

we thought it would be fun to sit 3 rows up at the shamu show...




hmmmm...turned out to be a drench zone.



we were completely soaked!
tatie loved the big fish but wasn't so sure how he felt about the salty bath...



my only regret of the day was purchasing this whale hat.
even as we speak i have to pry it off his head. he was his own side show at sea world.

the boys love their aunt pp.









long day, but still clinching onto his cute little "fishie hat."






big thanks to kenny who let us have fun in the sun, while he stayed home to work-we missed you!
thanks mom and sisa's for such good times! wish we were still there.

{easter eggs & such...}

we had a wonderful easter weekend.
we kicked it off saturday afternoon coloring some eggs...



tate kept calling the eggs balls before chucking 'em, so needless to say
more are cracked and broken then pretty and nice.
ah boys {sigh}
knocking over the decor while trying for a picture op...{another sigh}



tatie couldn't have been more stoked about the easter egg hunt.
he had one at grandma nelsons and grandma fergusons but of course the
camera only made it to one.






the look of pure mischief.



cousin caden




and what would easter be without a little guitar hero to end the day?

we had such a great day! i hope everyone's day went just as well...

{suspicions confirmed & secrets revealed}

well, we are off to enjoy some sunshine in the beautiful san diego,
but before we head out o' town, i thought i would confirm what
few already thought they knew...
im totally prego!

isn't he the cutest thing you've ever seen?
{ i keep referring to the baby as a he because im convinced tate is getting a little bro.}
im only three months along and i would prefer to have waited at least another month before spilling the beans, but ive been pretty sick and my belly is giving hints left and right. hiding it any longer would be almost impossible. in fact, i made the nurse check again and again to see if there was another baby somewhere in there.
{with tate i was a good 23-24 weeks before people even started asking}
now my body is reacting like it knows just what to do...oh well, free willey this summer!
we went to our doctors appointment last week and all seems to be looking good.
{except for the scale}
but things are staring to look up. im finally beginning to feel like a normal person again and we couldn't be more thrilled! {especially ken, he would like to multiply and replenish adam and eve style:}

{ sick-o...}

for the last two weeks our lives have been nothin but
aches, pains, fevers, and everything else that comes
along with feeling a little {OR A LOT} under the weather.
i have this fear of going to the doctor. not because i'm afraid of needles but
because i'm afraid of the doctor coming back after testing and finding
nothing wrong, then writing me a prescription for some tough-in-up pills.
after resisting for about a week and not seeming to be getting any better, ken finally dragged me to the er on thursday night. come to find out, i had had strep that had gone untreated so the infection spread to my ears and i was suffering from titus media. {serious ear infections}
and by the way i salute all the babies out there that go through this torture-i would much rather pass a few kidney stones or give birth to the destroyer again.
needless to say they pass out pain pills at the er like tick-tacks, so i'm well on my way to recovery. i wish i could say the same for my little boy. he seems to have gotten some sorta bug and cant seem to kick it. really can we catch a break-please?



seriously?

we have found ourselves doin a whole lota nothin for the last little bit.




check out the sexy bed head...
we are going to have bed sores here soon enough too.


yesterday, my dream of a husband took the day off to stay home and redo our room to cheer me up. {and we have had the paint for about a month-just sitting in the garage}

the before...
very dull and kinda 80's.
hand-me downs, what can i say?

the during...


ahhh...so sweet!







and the after is to be continued...
I'm still working on the new bed skirt and curtains.
but really what a guy Ive snagged myself!
it does pay to be sick sometimes!
