Orange smile

We had a really fun day today Logan got to try a new thing today I cut his oranges into wedges and referred to them as orange smiles. Just by cutting them different and changing there name they were actually cool enough to eat. This evening we met our friends Jana and Kendall and their boys Aidan and Janson for a picnic dinner at the splash park. Fun was had by all.

Another peek

We got to have another ultrasound today. Dr. Cook couldn't get a good view of the heart at my 20 week so he wanted us to come back @ 26 weeks. Everything looks great. Healthy baby boy Ardt will be arriving on October 22nd via c-section. We got definate confirmation that we are having a boy. The bottom picture is the proof. We made this ultrasound a family affair Kevin,Logan and my mom were there. It was my moms first ultasound viewing. I am relieved that everything looks good.

20 weeks

So I am a little behind. This was my 20 week ultrasound picture. We are having another boy!!
We are super excited.

A Super Fun Day!!!

What a fun day we had. We planned on going to Birch bay today, but we just went with what came up. We were headed north and decided to go to Hovander Farm because Logan mentioned it in the car. After Hovander we were going to eat our lunch and go home, But we ended up eating our lunch at Pioneer park instead. When we were done there Logan was in such good spirits we decided to go to Boxx Berry farm for there Raspberry Festival. We had never been to the raspberry festival before so we were surprised that everything was free (bonus). We had raspberry sundaes. Logan went on a train ride. We all went on a tractor ride where they picked carrots for us and let us tour the farm. Logan ate three carrots. They were so sweet. There is nothing like fresh carrots. We came home and Logan played in his wading pool. Now we are all relaxing. What a great day! Dollars spent today= $5 for gas. Yeah!!!

My family

We had a great fourth. We started out the day by meeting Sherra for breakfast. It was really fun to catch up with her. After breakfast we drove to the parade in Oak Harbor. We got there later than we planned so we were forced to sit in the blazing sun. We applied adequate sun protection so everything was fine. We then went home and Logan took a nap. Our fun day was not over though. We went to my parents house and had a BBQ and then went swimming. After swimming we went to Leah and Aarons for Fireworks and desert. We got home at about 11:00 and crashed. What a great day!

The Zoo

Getting a little braver

Milking the plastic cow.

We had a great time at the zoo. Our friend Susan gave us some passes for the day. We really appreciated it. Logan was really into the animals and knew what most of them were. A lady called the gorilla a monkey and Logan said "It's not a monkey. It's a Gorilla". He was scared of the real cows but liked the plastic one. A fun day was had by all.

Just Keep Swimming.

Say Cheese! CHEEEEEEESE!

Getting more confident

We have enjoyed the pool at my parents house this summer. Logan is getting more confident and occasionally will leave the steps.

I scream! You scream! We all scream for ice cream!

His first Bite


This is Logan being silly

yummy! I just can't get enough!

Don't stick your tongue in the ice cream machine.

Waiting patiently for the ice cream to finish.

Kevin and I decided it would be fun to make ice cream with Logan. We forgot that it takes 20 minutes. Twenty minutes to a 2 1/2 year old is forever. He was very patient and enjoyed the fruits of his labor.
