"Fall"ing in love

By
LEAVES!!!!

Emmi was thoroughly entertained with the leaves this year. Peer pressure was the driving force to even get Emmi into the leaves. Her little neighbor Annie was diving into them, swimming in them and burying herself in them. Emmi of course had to do it "herself too". After she finally inched her way into the pile she never wanted out. She begged to play in them daily until Daddy had to rake them up and bag them. It was a sad sad day!

This fall has been absolutely beautiful. We have enjoyed ourselves outside as much as possible. Jack is an outdoors guy too. So, most of our days have been playing in the back yard getting in as much outside time before the harsh winter comes.

Baby JACK JONES!

By
We showed them didn't we Jack? As I said in my last post I was going to tell the hospital that Jack wanted to be born on May 20th regardless of what they say. My last post was written on May 20th at about 7:45 p.m. While writing the post I did feel some stronger contractions but since I had been contracting all day I really just ignored it. Until I published my post and started walking around. They immediately started coming 3 minutes apart and I had to breath through them. Brian was putting Emmi down to sleep, but I barged into the room and said we need to go to the hospital fast. I called Eric and Kelley to take Emmi and in no less than 5 minutes we were out the door. Emmi couldn't have been more thrilled. Off for a sleep over with her cousins. Driving to the hospital was the longest drive possible. The contractions were coming so fast. I was a contortionist in the passenger seat while gripping Brian's thigh everytime a contraction hit. Brian dropped me off in the round a...

Family Pics!!!

By
It's that time again for family pictures for the good ol' Christmas card. I always hate doing this, but you know you just got to do it. It took me weeks to get together everyones outfits. I stewed and stewed about where I wanted the shoot and what style I was looking for. I hired this amazing photographer and I am for the first time extremely impressed of how things turned out. Here are a few sneak peeks! Emmi was handing out fake smiles and frowns the entire shoot. I can't tell you how hard it is to get everyone with their smiles on in one photo. I think that our little Jack stole the show. He was by far the cutest in every photo. P.S. Oh yeah..... I completely CHOPPED my hair. It's been a little hard to adjust to, but a good change.

Happy St. Raggy's Day!!!

By
Wow.....can you believe that it has been 4 years since the day Ragnar Birkeland came to us for a quick visit? It is such an easy day to remember since it is on St. Patricks Day. We have now renamed the holiday in honor of our little boy to St. Raggy's Day. If any of you don't know the story behind the name RAGNAR....well....you may think we are kinda mean parents. But believe me it fits. It always is a good day to remember what we have to look forward to when we see the little dude again. I do feel like it is a little blessing to always have that excitement to raise a child we do not know in the next life. I can't wait to see what little personality he has, and to see my love grow for him. I am sure he is up there now giving our new little boy some pointers on how to deal with us. Hopefully "Jack" is taking the pointers to good heart. So, you are all probably wondering if that is the name of our new baby boy. Well, we have been throwing around multiple names, bu...
