Happy Year of the Dragon Baby!

Happy Chinese New Year!
My Chinese New Year goal is to get back to blogging.
This morning I woke up to the sound of rain on my window. One of my favorite sounds in the world.
Alex had the day off of work, so I got to spend the day with him.
Why did Alex take the day off of work you ask?
Because on Wednesday I will hit the 19 week mark in my pregnancy.
Yep, 19 weeks pregnant. Almost half way there.
SURPRISE! If you didn't know, don't feel left out. We have mostly only told our family. I've stayed pretty small so Alex and I thought it would be fun to keep it a secret until we knew the gender. We are SO excited. Hailey thinks it is the coolest thing ever and Matthew has already started talking to the baby. Hailey has only told one person we didn't tell her she could. She's a pretty good secret keeper for an almost 4 year old.
Today was our "big" ultrasound. The joke is on us because baby #3 doesn't want us to know what it is. After an hour of poking around at my belly, the ultrasound tech gave up, and told us that she couldn't even see well enough to make a guess. So all we know is that baby number three is stubborn. It'll fit right in. The lamest part is that unless there is a problem, I don't get another ultrasound. As much as I want to know what it is, I don't want there to be any problems. Therefore baby #3's gender will probably remain a secret until it's birthday.  For now, I will lovingly call it our little dragon baby.
I also promise to post some pictures of all of the fun stuff we've been doing soon. :)

Because I told Charlye I would

So I know I have not been a good blogger. This time of year always seems to be the hardest time for our blog because I am a holiday Junkie. I spend everyday between October and the New years doing Holiday things and squeezing every last bit of awesomeness out of this time of year. December is the craziest because there is so many awesome things to do. I LOVE it! Here is a random sampling of what we've been up to lately. It only covers very little of what we've been doing, but I haven't been as good as I should with the picture taking.

Last Halloween Picture

The elf's first day at our house.



We made these for our German Christmas Celebration.

Sankt Nickolaus, left us some awesome goodies.


"MOM! How many more pictures are you gonna take?"

Yule goats in progress for Santa Lucia day.

My finished Yule Goat.

Some where less elaborate than others.


Our Santa Lucia right before she passed out the orange rolls.

What a stud!


It's crazy Annie!

He takes his phone calls VERY seriously.
