Our matching tickets....

Yep! We both got speeding tickets.... exactly one week apart.... for speeding exactly the same amount over... from different departments - about 3 miles apart. Needless to say, we just have to laugh.

Baby Kiptyn



This morning, I had the PRIVILEGE of watching my good friend Sarah's little boy Kiptyn. He's 8 weeks old and a total angel!!! I couldn't resist taking some pics of him!!!

I was a little worried about how Jackson would do with his momma holding another baby all day but he didn't seem phased by it! But - we did have his buddy Ben over to play and then his girlfriend Anna Kate over in the afternoon - so he was plenty distracted! It really did give me a sense of what kind of situation I'm facing in a few short months!!! I think I'm up for the task!!! :)

Feeling those flutters!

So today is 16 weeks along with Baby Stearle numero dos! :) How excited am I that I'm already feeling those flutters! It's funny because I'm not "trying" to feel the baby - the baby is just making sure I notice! Many many times today I am feeling lots of activity. The baby (which babycenter.com says measures at 4.5 inches this week - the length of an avocado) is not strong enough to "kick" me where I feel it but I'm feeling lots of fluttering!!!

I nailed Ryan down to a boy name finally. He was having trouble even considering that this may be a boy and wouldn't discuss boy names and finally I warned him that he may be jinxing us! So now we have a boy name and girl name - tba later. :) We'll find out the sex on March 3rd so stay tuned! Everyone asks me if I want a boy or girl - and to be honest - I seriously would be so happy with either. If it's a boy, Jackson will have his best buddy and they could be so close and involved in the same activities... that would be so cool. Also, I'd have all the clothes I could ever need. If it's a girl - it may be my last baby.... which is appealing... and Ryan would be soooooo thrilled... which always makes me happy too. So it's in God's hands. I know Ryan feels the same as me - we pray for a healthy baby first and foremost and really the rest doesn't matter.

OH MY - July will be here sooooooo soon! But in the meantime, here's Jackson playing in the snow!
