Summer time and the living's easy......

After Great Grandma Sue filled up Ben with sugar early in the morning, surprise surprise....... he did not want to take his afternoon nap. So I broke open our brand new water hose that I bought a few weeks ago and let Ben run free. (Thank you Heather for reminding me what fun hoses can be)

Sun screened up, water hose fun, otter pops and banana Popsicles, water hud on base, and homemade banana bread. Welcome to our summer days ~

Whatcha lookin at Willis?

A banana Popsicle...I don't mind if I do.....

Blue otter pops...yummmm
Happy boy eating his first otter pop ~

A little fish in a big pond ~ Telling Grandma Sue about the water fun ~

Running through the water ~ Mommy is splattered with water and Benjamin's lips are turning blue......time to say good bye to wa wa......
After a water filled day(and a nice nap) - Ben helped me make some homemade cocoa banana bread. (By the way, he is standing on his step stool)

Wow that splash park looks like so much fun! Did Ben love it? Well I am guessing from the blue lips he must have been there for awhile! Ah, summer days are the best!

That looks like such a bunch of fun :) The splash park is awesome! Over here they often have big splash fountains in the city centres. The kids (and an awful lot of adults) flock to it on our lovely summer days (the few that are lovely, anyway). Looks like everyone had fun :)

Baby "Bean" Gardner first ultrasound

I guess I jinxed myself with the second to last post. I was bragging on how "easy" this pregnancy has been. Well, the good news is that I have yet to lose my lunch, breakfast, or any meal with this baby. The bad news is that I have been losing a lot of blood and having sharp pains in my belly. This was day 4 of those same symptoms, and I decided to head to a DR to make sure everything was okay. The great news is that I saw the baby's heartbeat for the first time and it was strong! And the cervix looks perfect. Also, I went to one of the best OB Women's health centers in the west. The Mary Birch Women and Baby center is amazing! Their staff was wonderful! I was treated by a perionatologist (Dr who deals with high risk pregnancies) who just "happened" to be on staff that day. I felt very reassured after leaving that I had received the best treatment possible. (Shauna - I thought of you the whole time) I realized how blessed I am to always have such great Dr...

Decorating the boys room

I have some decisions to make. For the first 4-6 months Zach will sleep in his cradle in the master bedroom. But then after that, Ben and Zach will be sharing a room. We do qualify for a 3 bedroom. However, I have no desire to move any time soon. So it's decorating time! For the past 3 years Benjamin's room has been sports theme. Dan and I both love sports. That is no secret. However, I am a little burned out of sports theme. And Ben's crib bedding is stained, ripped, and faded. So, I need to decide on Zach's bedding and a new set for Ben. So I need your input! My mission if I wish to accept it, is to choose a new theme for the room without breaking the bank. I also have to keep in mind that whatever we choose for Zach, will be with him for the next 3 or more years. First option - This is my favorite. However Dan insists that is is way too girly and will give Zach a "complex". ;) What do you think? Too girly? We would just have the basic bedding. Not the wall...
