Lots To Talk About




With Tyler out of town for a couple of weeks, I have a bit of extra time at the end of the day to catch up on blogging and scrapbooking.

Since my last post, we have found out the we are expecting a little boy that we have decided to name Bannick (keeping with the "B"'s)! Brollin is SO excited to share a room with his little brother, probably because he doesn't sleep in his room! We tried coaxing him into a sports theme room but to my initial dismay, he picked superhero's. And I said "initial dismay" only because sports is a little easier and more accessible than Super Hero's. However, thanks to Pinterest, I've got lots of DIY ideas that even Tyler will be able to help me with.

Christmas and the New Year have been very good to our little family. The California weather is beyond perfect. Braxton rides her bike to school every day; Brollin spends most of his time out back with Kelly Kapowski; Tyler is able to cook out on his Traeger almost every night, which to him is a dream come true! Braxton is doing great in 3rd; she finally has a great teacher and some great friends. Brollin has done SO well in pre-school, better than expected! All of a sudden he talks in complete sentences, counts to 20, and even started sharing with his sister! (kind of).


The baby and I are doing fairly well. i guess I should say, the baby is doing great...I, on the other hand, am a horrible pregnant woman. I guess that's why the doctors all said "no more babies". It started with a little echoli, then some high blood pressure and now justational diabetes. What's funny though, is this is the best I've felt through every pregnancy. I get super sore when I walk but I really do feel great. We've got most the clothes and swings and things all ready for this little guy to get here. We've decided to have his blessing here in California because it's too hard to fit it around everyone's schedules. So we're planning it around Tyler's!

I hope everyone has a great week this week. And hopefully I can get some more recent pictures up soon!
