Week 4

* Mark needs to figure out life without a binky. He has pretty much given up his nap which we are all getting used to, but the hard part is his night time sleep is sucking. Waking up a couple times a night and way too early for the day. Hopefully things will work out real quick.

* We went to My Gym with Mark's playgroup and they both had so much fun. they just love to go to places like that.

* Mark had three accidents within 24 hours which left him pretty beat up, He scratch his nose when he and Katelynn were running and he tripped and Katelynn tripped over him. I don't know what happened to his lip and then Katelynn poked him in the eye with a toy. I felt so bad for the poor guy.

* We had some well needed playtime at Grandma's. It is always nice to play there and visit with them.

Week 3

* As I was combing Katelnn’s hair for the day I asked her if she had any good dreams that night. She said no and then proceeded to tell me, “ Mommy I don’t want to have any good dreams or bad dreams tonight. I want just black.” Honey, I know how you feel. I want to have just black too. I have weird dreams that don’t leave me rested when I am pregnant.

* Katelynn gave her first talk in Primary. Daddy helped her, she did a great job and spoke loud enough for everyone to hear, which isn’t really a problem ever. She was very excited about he talk and was telling everyone about it as she was walking to primary.

* Mark broke his last binky this week and so we have been going back and forth as to if he will be napping any more. I still have him go to his room each afternoon and see if he falls asleep. If he doesn't nap he goes to bed for the night within minutes.

* Had my 30 week appointment this week and everything is going fine. Didn't gain any weight but the baby is still growing so it's fine. I am 25 lbs up though. And it makes a huge difference when I take my picture. I try to take it at the same time but it hasn't always worked out.

Week 2

* Back in late 2012 Ben got a bike stolen from our front yard. He rode home from work on his bike, I was at work so he went in the side of the house relieved the babysitter and completely forgot about the bike until I got home hours later. I for some reason do I bike count when I go in the garage, Ben does have four bikes. Anyways, a couple weeks ago Ben got a call from his buddy at bike shop telling him someone brought in his stolen bike to get worked on. The serial num was scratched off but it was his bike. The guy who brought it in bought it from someone else so he is now out a nice chunk of money now.

* Ben was riding the bike in the front yard today and Katelynn was on her bike too. She Yells out to Ben, "Be careful Daddy, you don't want to Jimmy Jack Corn yourself." Yes this is a Benism meaning, don't Daddy don't get hurt. Ben and I couldn't stop laughing.

* We went out to dinner at a pizza place and we don't eat at restaurants too often. Katelynn was so excited to be having pizza for dinner. While we were eating she said a few times, "This is the best dinner ever!" THe pizza was really good.

Week 1

* We went to a trampoline place in town on Monday to celebrate Damien's 15th birthday. I really can't believe that he is 15. Katelynn and Mark had so much fun and since I couldn't jump Mark found a temporary Jumping family. He jumped from the moment we got there till we left. He loved it! I do call him my little jumping bean.

* Everyone loved bouncing with Uncle Mike!

* 29 weeks down ten more to go.

* We went to Maddie's First Birthday Party and Katelynn had a ball. She came home with a wand and crown that she just adores and ended up sleeping with that night.

Happy Birthday Happy Maddie!

* Playing with the bubbles guns. Katelynn made a rainbow.

 * We took a couple quick pics before church this morning and this is my favorite. Yes, Mark has his finger jammed up his nose but that makes it even better!
