Place your bets now!
by johanna on Dec.01, 2008, under General
Last night Mike told me and the kids to pick a number between 1 and 30. I chose 15 James chose 30, and Aiden chose 1, then he told us that that was our guess on when the baby will come. After Mike told me the reason for the numbers I changed mine to 25. Aim high I always say. So at game night we took down everyone’s guess. If you want to join the fun let us know quick because you never know with me. Both kids have come early! The closest one on the date gets a prize!

Christmas List (Mike version)
by Mike on Nov.22, 2008, under General
Johanna and I have been telling each other that we need to find time to go Christmas shopping, but before we do that we need to put together Christmas lists of what we want. Normally I am not the type of person to put together a list, it makes me feel needy. But this time around, I thought we could turn this into something a little more fun. So I am posting my list online for all my friends and family to see.
Tooth fairy
by johanna on Nov.21, 2008, under General
After four long days of Mike trying to pull Aidens tooth, it finally came out! We were at the grocery store waiting at the checkout stand and pop, Aiden pulled it out all by himself! This is tooth number two. The tooth fairy came last night and gave Aiden a whole dollar! He promptly lost it. When he finnaly found it he gave it to me for safe keeping. Later today we will go buy some candy with it. He isn’t much into saving yet.
I am still very tired all the time. It is so hard to sleep when you have little ones running around all over the place. I am just waiting not so patiently for this baby to come out. I have decided that for the next one we are going to hire a surrogate mother from india. They need the money and I don’t want to be pregnant again! It’s a win win situation. Mike isn’t going for that idea yet, but he will (ha ha ha, evil laugh,)
sorry it has been so long in writing, We have some new family pictures we need to show you all but, I don’t really know how to do it yet so Mike is going to have to do that.
The Great Pumpkin
by Mike on Oct.30, 2008, under General, Kidz

Every Halloween, the Great Pumpkin rises out of the Pumpkin Patch…and impales himself.
Okay, the story doesn’t really go like that, but Liz and Dad ought to get a chuckle out of it. But this blog post is really about letting everyone see the amazing “Pumpkin Carving of 2008″ that we just had.
