Gone Fishin!!!

We have had a rough few days!!  First I got the flu, and now the Big D has it.  And poor Brant... we moved and he had to do the entire thing by himself!!  I got to watch from my parents window :-)  Not a bad way to move for me!  But Brant was exhausted and worked his little butt off.  We are officially living in the suburbs.  Not going to lie _ I think I like it.  Now hopefully we can find a house we want to buy!

D and I spent the night at my parents the other night and this is what Devyn was up to.  I showed Brant the picture and he said she looks like an old man fishing!  And she kind of does.  Pretty hysterical.

Weekend Pics..

Not much really going on here!  We are moving on Thursday!!!  Yippee!!!  We are definitely NOT packed but I am sure everything will come together.  It always does.  I am definitely going to miss living in the city but with the new baby coming we really have no choice but to move to a bigger place!

Devyn has been wild lately!!  Yesterday she decided to jump off the 5th step.  This is what happened after that... Thank goodness Aunt Jenny was there!!  We needed a doctor in the house!!



I took D to the Children's museum last week.  We had a great time, then we had lunch, and went to build a bear.  When we were walking out she wanted to drive the train.  I told her only 1 time and she actually listened!!  I have begun bribing her with EVERYTHING!!  Could be a bad parenting tactic but it works.



D and Brant getting ready for the very sad Bears game yesterday.



I can't figure out how to turn this picture.  Sorry.  But I went to get my haircut the other day and I got a text message with this picture!!  It said "Your Daughter" I think it is pretty funny!!!

Go Bears!!

Thank goodness for Martin Luther King!!  I have the day off today and LOVE it!!  Definitely needed another day!  The whole family has had a cold, got rid of the cold, and now have them back :-(  But we have been keeping busy.  We are moving in about a week and I am very excited about it!!  I can't wait to have an 8 minute commute!!  But for some reason whenever I sleep at my parents house I am always late for work.  Not real sure how that happens but every time it does.  I think the Big D and I will head to the Children's Museum today!  We still get in free cuz I work for Allstate :-)

D and I slept at my parents house last week and Devyn was CRAZY!!  She loves their house because they have more toys than we do.  It is honestly a kids dream in there.  And they have more space to run around so she always goes nuts!  She was locking me out of the room in the pictures below.  She is very demanding lately.  Always telling me to walk away or get out.  If I tell her to throw her garbage away she will respond with you throw it away.  Got a little diva on our hands.

A girl in my class had a tragedy in her family.  Her cousin, who was 2, was eating a hotdog at Portillo's and choked and died.  I know Devyn eats hotdogs all the time!  Anyone with kids out there _ Don't forget to cut the hotdog!!!  And the grapes!  Two biggest things kids choke on....  Okay enjoy our pictures!

Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year!!  Sorry for not posting in a while... It has been a busy few weeks!!  We were in Iowa City for xmas!!  Had a great time!  Thank you Linda!  The day we got back Devyn got a double ear infection.  Now we are back in school!  Here are some pictures from winter break!!  

Here is D being silly!  We were on our way to Iowa City and I turn around and this is what I see...  



We have a huge obsession with dolls right now.  We have them in every shape, size, and color.  Here is D playing with her doll and changing her diaper!  She will say Mommy stinky diaper...we need a new one!!  So then we change it.  Literally 30 seconds later we are doing the same thing again!  We have wasted lots of diapers!


Playing on her new keyboard and microphone!  The first few days she sat on the stool and played for hours!  She hasn't touched it since!



Feeding our baby!!  Thanks Baba :-)

And feeding another baby!!


This might be my favorite picture!!  We went to the Shedd and I found Brant and the Big D sitting here!!
I love how she is looking at him!
