Update....Finally

So I am not so good at this blogging stuff. It has been over 2 months since I have added anything. OOPS!
I am going to try to remember everything since my last post...wish me luck :) Well, we had Thanksgiving. Followed by late night/early morning shopping with my mom, I had to work that day so we didn't stay out as long as we normally would but we got a lot done anyway. Brandon even got involved, we went to Toys-R-Us at 9:00 on Thanksgiving night and stood outside waiting to get in.
Wait....the week before Thanksgiving Andy and I went with my mom and dad to Vegas. We met my sister from California there. My other sister and her husband came as well. It was nice to go somewhere for a couple days. Of course we missed our boys. While we were there we went to see the Blue Man Group. Andy was part of the show! One of the Men was in the corner eating a bowl of Captin Crunch and "got caught" he handed it to Andy to make it look like he was the one that was eating it. It was the funniest thing! For those of you who know Andy know that he isn't one to get involved in anything, yet alone a show in Vegas. He just sat there holding the bowl cause he didn't know whatelse to do with it.
On the 2nd of December my baby boy turned 3! We did a Toy Story cake (not as cool as Brandon's) poor kid gets jipped sometimes :) He didn't seem to mind though. It was filled with lots and lots of Monster Trucks since that is what he wanted.
Next we have the month of December...full of holiday parties and treats! Yum! I wasn't really in the Christmas mood this year so we didn't get a tree until around the 10th of the month. Then it took about a week for it to be decorated. We didn't even put up any of our decorations. We put lights in the windows but that was about it. I felt really bad for my kids, of course too late to fix it. Next year will rock!
As part of Andy's Christmas everyone pitched in and sent him to the Bears VS Broncos game with his brother Troy. He had tons of fun! Lucky for him he likes both teams so he wasn't really disappointed in the game at all. The Broncos came from behind to win, but overall the game was good.
On Christmas Eve we were able to take an adventure to the IMC emergency room. Ty decided that breaking his arm would be a good idea. He was dancing around and fell funny and that was all it took. Here I thought his broken bones would come from jumping off the couch, stairs, slides, or porch. But now he breaks it just walking around. :) Two weeks later we went in to get it casted and he wanted a Buzz cast. Disappointed to find out there is no such thing...he went with green instead (like Buzz). He only had the cast on for 2 weeks and it never slowed him down at all. Still jumping and running everywhere.
After Christmas comes Andy and I's anniversary....11 years! Hard to believe it has been that long. This year the weather was nice and sunny...complete contrast to the year we got married, foggy and cold.
Jan 9th leads us to Andy's birthday. Brandon picked out a Broncos cake for him. We were just glad they won the day before so the cake was still a good idea :) I invited his friend Dan and his wife Crystal over for dinner. It was a fun little party.
Another fun thing that happend in the first part of January...I was able to go get an ultrasound of our new addition! That is right folks...we have #3 coming in August. We found out the week before Christmas but waited until the 13th of January to tell the family. It was hard to keep in. I had my cousin Staci make some t-shirts to help us spread the word. They turned out awesome! We are all excited, especially the boys. They both keep rubbing my stomach and looking at the little ultrasound pics of the kidney bean with arms. :)
Well, I think that about sums up the last couple months. Hopefully I don't wait another 2 months to update again. I didn't put pictures on this post, but they are all on my FB profile so feel free to go there and check them out.
