Ultrasound Pictures

Sorry these are a little belated but Brian and I are were having some technical difficulties getting the pictures off the cd. Here's some pictures of our little guy.

A nice profile:

The proof it's a boy:

IT'S A . . . . BOY

There is no doubt about it folks the tuckling 2.0 is most definetly a baby boy. Meagan had a feeling and I was brashly projecting that it was a boy lacking any basis but we were right! Thanks for all of you who voted. Those of you who voted boy have won the right to tell those who voted girl, I told you so.

The first name of the child is yet to be determined but his middle name will be Kirk after my late brother. Meagan has ruled out James or Jim on account of star trek but I think it would be fun.

We have some good ultrasound pictures but haven't scanned them in yet we will keep you posted

Ultrasound Postponed

I got a call today that the midwife that was going to do my ultrasound had 2 ladies in labor so the appointment got moved to Monday. So, I'll let you know then!

Surgery and Garage Sales

First, I took these pictures earlier this week. I'm going to have to use them in some kind of Father's Day card.



Then, to stay in chronological order, we went to the duck pond on Monday. Sydney seemed to enjoy it. I was afraid she wanted to go jumping into the pond. She kind of got the hang of throwing the bread to the ducks instead of eating it herself. They shared the bread I guess.Sydney's surgery went well this past Thursday. We had to be there at 7am and by 7:30 when I had to leave for work she hadn't been put under yet. Brian told me later that when the nurses took her away he was so sad because she was reaching for him and calling, "Dad!". I'm kind of glad I didn't have to see that. But look how cute our little patient was:
Post surgery:When I got home from work that day, I was surprised to see her running around and being her usual cheerful self. She's been doing great.

I went down to Idaho Falls Saturday and with a friend hit some garage sales. I'm so glad I went with her because there was one garage sale right near her house that I wouldn't have known about and happened to be the best stop we hit that day. Here are just some of my favorite finds.
This purple dress is gorgeous! It's a little big, Size 4, but I couldn't pass it up.Here are the toys I got her. She loves Cars so I was excited to get this Mater for her in such good condition. Also, she can spend at least 20 minutes playing with the little pop-up toy. As I was pulling these toys away to take a picture (I didn't pull them from her as she was playing with them, I'm not mean) she's was shouting, "Mine! Mine! Mine!" I guess that "Mine-o-Saur" book from the Dolly Parton Imagination Library came just in time.

I love that I found these Sandra Boynton books in such great condition and for 25c each! Very excited!
I got Sydney a ton of bottoms for 2T and 3T but this was one of the cute shirts I got.
I really liked the colors of this outfit. I worried that it might be a little hot for Louisiana but it does get somewhat cold in the winter time so I'm sure I'll be able to use it.

Funny story: I also got an umbrella stroller for Sydney. I left it out in the car and told Brian about it. He gave me a quizzical look and asked to see it. He said, "Does it have an umbrella on it?" I explained to him that it looked like the toy one I got for Sydney just bigger. He then commented that it was a stupid name for a stroller. I agree. :)

A Few pics and Sydney's upcoming surgery

Hey guys! Wow! The poll is going great and a ton of you think baby #2 is a girl! Brian had to come on the site and vote boy but it's not evening the odds. Funny though!
Here's a pic with our gracious hosts, Aunt JeNae and Uncle Denny. It was a great weekend and I'm glad they live so high up a mountain side because Sydney was escaping outside every time I turned around. She loved that she could open those doors.



Sydney is doing well but we took her to an ear,nose and throat doctor who recommended that we have ear tubes inserted. She will have this minor surgery next Thursday. I'm a little nervous but hope it will help with her pains- she gets tons of ear infections. She's a pretty happy camper right now.


I've been enjoying a week off from working. It's been so nice to just hang out with this little squirt.Check out the "curl-hawk". Totally natural. Not even joking.

The move is approaching! Oh my goodness! About 3 weeks now. Getting a little nervous but excited!
