Last week we got to go to Disney Land with the Woolstenhulme side of the family, Nicolas' grandparants, his parents and all his sisters and brother, one of his aunts family's, and one of his uncles family's. In all I think it was 23 people. We had a lot of fun.

On Friday we all went to the beach. We road on a ferry which is somthing I have never done before, and I do not know if I want to again. It was weird being in your car while on a boat!
At the park they had a little petting zoo with goats, a cow, and a sheep. Riley was facinated by this goat for some reason.




I had to take a belly shot while we were at Disney Land!! 23 weeks!

I really think Riley's favorite part of our vacation was the swimming pool, and hot tub! He would beg to go swimming, (we would have gone swimming more if the weather would have been warmer.) Then when we got to the pool all he wanted to do was get in the hot tub.
When we went to Disney World last year Riley and I got really sick, and missed almost half the vacation throwing up in the hotal room, so it was nice to get to go back to Disney Land so soon. We are glad we got to spend the week with our family having fun and making memories!

Boy? or Girl?


For those of you who guessed Girl.... you are right!! We got to see our little baby today, and everything is looking great. She is growing and developing just the way she is suppost to be. She has five cute little fingers on each hand, she would not really let us count hew toes, plus the bones are so little it would be hard to tell anyway. She was not quite as active as Riley was. He was all over the place and just in the 20 minutes or so that we got to see him in the ultra sound he flipped four or five times. She was also not as cooperative as Riley. Within the first few seconds of Riley's ultra sound we knew he was a boy. We were not really sure with our little girl till the end of the ultra sound. We got an OK picture of her face, and a cute picture of her feet. I will post those later. We are happy that everything looked good, and are looking forward to meeting our little girl in about 5 months.

This kid can make anything look comfortable

This is what daylight savings does to a toddler.

About 17 weeks.
I never like the way I look in pictures, but I had to share the baby bump!

My poor baby! All last weekend Riley was not eatting well, acting grumpy, and scratched at his ear so much that it started to bleed. Then on Sunday he had a fever, and started throwing up all the milk he was drinking. We took him to the urgent care center and found out that he had a ear infection, (we pretty much knew that before we went in, but we can't really wirte out a prescription for that.) Anyway we had a few nights of pretty much no sleep, but he is doing much better now! He had never had a fever that high and had never been on an atibiotic before so it was a little scary.



We have church at 11:30 to 2:30, as you can imagine that does not work well for nap time. Riley is grumpy at church, and has started to scream and cry when we try to leave him in nursury. All because he does not nap at his regular time!! A few weeks ago when we got home from church Riley was so tired he would not calm down enough to sleep. So we just let him wonder around till he was ready to calm down. The next thing we knew he was fast asleep on the living room floor!


Riley has a thing for sports! The only Wii games we can play at our house are Wii sports and Wii sports resorts. He love to go out side and "play basketball." He even has a little golf club and plastic golf balls. So when we were at the doller store I could not help but buy him his own little basketball and hoop. I'll tell you what I got my dollers worth out of that toy!!

With Riley moving to his new bed and an addition coming to our family this summer, we have been thinking about the big items we will need to get so we have enough furnitre for two kids! One of the things we decided that we needed to get was a new book shelf for Riley. He had out grown his old shelf by about 20 books and the shelf was falling apart anyway. I really wanted a book shelf that had a few spots for storage boxes for the little books or toys that always seem to be missing. Anyway we really could not find anything in the store so we decided to make what we wanted. Nicolas is pretty handy, so I drew up what I wanted and he went from there! He cut out all the wood, than Riley and I helped him put it together, and than during Riley's nap time we painted it. (We really did not want Riley's help on that part, it would have been just a little to messy.) It was a fun family activity, and it is just what I wanted. So far it has stayed nice and orginized, but we will see how long that lasts!
