Hot Dog!!!!

I saw something today that I honestly thought I would never see in real life.  Owen and I were driving to the store, when I see a childhood dream parked in the parking lot of a hotel.  There sitting proudly, and ever so identifiable was the WIENERMOBILE!  Holy Cow, I was so excited!  So I pulled into the hotel parking lot, got Owen out of the car and took a picture of this exciting moment in my life.

This is huge.  I mean it is not everyday that you get to see the WienerMobile!

Attack of the Blue Lake Monster

Yesturday, Tom spent the day at Blue Lake Park treating people at some sort of Health Fair.  After he was finished, Owen and I met him at the park to have a picnic dinner.  The dinner was nothing fancy just Burger King, but there was a squirrel who could not get enough of it.  She kept on sneaking up and trying to grab fries out of our bag.  At one point she actually climbed up on Tom, to try and grab the french fry out of his hand.  

After our encounter with the Blue Lake Monster, Owen and Tom went for a run through the Water Play ground.  They had a great time, but I swear when ever Tom gets around things like that, the little 8 year-old boy in him comes out.  Seriously, I felt like I was watching my 2 LITTLE boys running through the water.  What am I going to do when I really do have 2 little boys?!?!?!

Owen's Big FISH Tale

Last Night, Owen went on his very first Fishing Trip, and HE CAUGHT SOMETHING!!!

Fishing has always been a favorite pass time for my family when I was growing up.  My Daddio absolutely LOVES to fish, and I believe that it was one of his prime objectives of life to teach his children to love to fish as much as he does.  Some of my earliest memories are of being out at a lake some where fishing with my family.  So, of course, I too love to fish.  

Last year, Tom a couple of his buddies picked up fishing as their new past time (or sanity saver from school).  With some advice from my dad, I got Tom a bunch of fishing gear for his Birthday;  which has been a very well used gift.  

Owen quite often sees his Daddy leave with all of his fishing stuff, and wants to go too.  He loves to get into Tom's tackle box and rearrange it; and his favorite thing to play with is Daddy's fishing rod.  Tom keeps it hung up in a closet, but some how Owen always manages to get it down and runs around the house trying to catch things with his pole.

Well last night, Owen actually caught something.  Tom came home from the store the other day with a "Lightning McQueen" Kiddy Pole, and announced that we were going fishing Saturday Night.  So Last night we went up to this little fishing hole, by the Clackamas River, called 

Small Fry Lake.  It is so small the we drove past it three times before we actually found it. It was A LOT of fun.  It was the first time that our little family had ever been fishing together, and I can't wait to go again.

Owen is Going to Have a Baby BROTHER!!!

Yes that is right, WE ARE HAVING ANOTHER BOY!!!!  We had our ultrasound on Monday morning, and the very first thing the technician said was, "Wow, it looks like you having another boy."  It was pretty obvious.  They also changed my due date...again.  They have moved it from December 27th, to January 7th, and now they are saying that it looks like it is going to be January 1st.  I think that I am going to claim January 10th as my due date, this way I will not go super crazy if he comes a little late.

Anyway, so here are some of our babies first pictures.

I guess that it is standard procedure, at my hospital, to a 3D ultrasound when they are looking at the bay's profile, so here are some first glimpses of what this Baby Boy just might look like...

It is kinda hard to tell what you are looking at, but the baby's head is blob in the middle. You can see his nose and a little mouth.

And here is a cute profile picture of the baby with his little left arm curled up under his face.  What a cute boy I am going to have!!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MISTER!!!

I know that it has been way too long since I have posted, I blame it on this pregnancy.  I have been so tired, that when I am not working or playing with Owen, I am sleeping.  As a result, blogging has taken the back seat in my life for the past month and a half.  I promise, I am going to get better.  I have a ton to update. 

So what brought me out of my Blogging Hiatus?  It had to be something Monumental...Right?    

Well yes, it is.  TODAY is mine and Tom's THIRD ANNIVERSARY!!!  I honestly cannot believe that we have been married for 3 years.  It some times feels like we just met yesterday, and then there are times that it feels like we have been married forever, and hat we have always been in each others lives.

So, I just wanted to tell Tom, and the rest of the world how grateful I am that he is my hubby, and that I love him a whole LOT.

Big Gulp Anyone?

We all know how much Tom loves to experiment with all these crazy diets and cleanses. So far he has done the following: the lemonade diet, the ape diet, the all meat diet, the P90X diet, the carb-hour diet, and the cabbage diet. He has seen decent results with most of them, but I am worried this the Big Gulp Diet is not working for him.

***Ha, ha, ha.  Just kidding.  This is not Tom, and he really hasn't done ALL of those diets, just most of them.***

One Exciting Birthday!

Well, it is official.  As of today, I am now the big TWO-FIVE, a quarter of a century, $.25; however you wanna say it, I am now 25 years old!

I don't know what it is about my birthday, but for some reason it always ends up being a big DRAG.  Now, I am not trying to whine or get sympathy, I am just saying that for some reason, I always have expectation for my birthday to be something, and it never is, so them I end up sitting our moping all day.  So it is definitely my fault that I usually end up having a Gloomy Eeyore Birthday (except for my 13th birthday, when my period started for the first time).

But today I am determined to have a HAPPY BIRTHDAY.  Tom has to work at the clinic until 7:00, and I have been feeling sick all day.  But I am still determined that today is a GREAT Birthday! Why? Well, let me tell you.......

We are going to be adding a BIRTHDAY to our Family!!!!  Yep, that is right, We are having another BABY!!!!  That is the birthday that I am excited for!  I am due on the 27th of December.  Yeah, I know, awesome planning...a Christmas Baby.  So needless to say, we are NOT going to be moving right after Tom graduates in December.  Nope, we are going to stay put for awhile.
