It's a BOY!!!

So today we had an ultrasound to check the baby and make sure everything was there and where is should be and the doctor said everything looked good. He does want to see me back at 28 weeks just to check the heart one more time but that is it. So yeah, IT'S A BOY! So now I am going to have three boys. I am excited that they will have each other as they grow up and will be close like Micah and his brothers although a little closer in age. I guess God saw that what he did in Rick and Tina's boys was good so he wanted to do it again!! Wow crazy isn't it!? So anyways here are some pictures of the little man in my belly...

here is his foot

I think he is practicing his karate chops in this picture. Smart kid since he is going to have two older brothers roughing him up

And here is his profile

here is his face

So here we see that it is a boy, the tech wasn't even trying to look at that she was actually checking some thing else and said "Um I am pretty sure that's a boy"

This is my family.....

on a Sunday afternoon. Marcus and I left for a couple of hours so that we could get out of the house. Micah, Matthew and the girls stayed home and played Guitar Hero World Tour. So when we got home from our outing Marcus put on his new Tony Stewart costume (that I don't think is coming off of him any time soon) and decided to rock out with Micah and Jenna. And yes if you look on the couch behind all of the commotion Matthew is sleeping there. The video is a little long but worth watching, Enjoy!!

The Pumpkin Patch...

We have been going to the same pumpkin patch for 3 years now. This year they added some bounce houses, pony rides and a DJ to their already fun couple of hay mazes, playground, farm animals and Fruit barn. So we were excited to get out and let the kids have some fun. Unfortunately Matthew is having some kind of allergic reaction to his antibiotics he has been taking for four days now and he started breaking out in a rash all over his body so we had to kind of cut it short. But I don't think the kids minded too much we were there for about an hour and they got their pumpkins, a treat from the fruit barn and got to hit up the mazes. All in all it was a good time. So here are some pictures from our visit. I have also put a picture up of the kids from last two years(the one from three years ago is Marcus only, the girls didn't go with me and him to that one) to see how they have changed. Hopefully next year we will be able to return since the farm is for sale:( If it is still there next year there will be five kids in the pictures instead of four. Funny little note, while there we saw a family who might have given us a glimpse in to the future. It was a mom and dad with their five kids the two older were girls about 14 and 12 the next were three boys probably around 5, 3 and one years old. I thought it was kind of weird. Especially if this baby we are having in March turns out to be a boy. By the we way we go in on Wednesday to find out what the baby is, WooHooo!! I can't wait!


yes, that is a Christmas tree at the pumpkin patch. This year they wanted to let us know they would be selling trees starting the 1st of December and if you take a tag off the tree and bring it back in December you get 10% off your tree.

Matthew thought these scarecrows were fascinating

Here is one of the classic pictures, these ARE Micah's boys!

Here is a better one

Here is the one from last year


And Marcus from the year before

Some pictures...

The first one is of the girls both of them together hugging and smiling, a rare sighting. Also Adrianne is wearing her new glasses. and the other is of Matthew David he is just to cute to handle!!!


Another video...

I am never able to catch Marcus and his crazy obsession with racing on video because every time he sees me grab my camera he hides. Well yesterday I was able to get a short clip of him playing. He took down one of my curtains and was pretending it was a checkered flag...But not just any checkered flag it was "The checkered flag 3000" as he calls it in the video.

A video

Marcus wearing his sweater

Some pictures...

Here are some pictures of the kiddo's

While having lunch with Jenna at school Marcus drew who else but his daddy...he also wanted to give him a lot of hair on his face.

This is Marcus' new sweater. We found it at Walmart and he wears it all the time!!!

This is Jenna's class, every week they have a time for "Parents Passion". One students parent come in and shares about their "passion" (their favorite hobby or job) since I didn't want to go in and share how passionate I am about being a stay at home mom Micah went and took his truck. The kids had a lot of fun asking Micah questions, climbing in the truck, seeing the engine and of course hearing the horn. I think Micah had just as much fun as the kids.

Matthew

Matthew is growing up so fast, He is finally starting to use more words instead of grunting at everything. He also likes to copy everything Marcus does. If Marcus is talking Matthew is talking, if Marcus is yelling Matthew is yelling. If Marcus is playing with cars Matthew is playing cars. Everything Marcus does Matthew is right along with him. It is nice to finally see them playing together. However I still have to be careful leaving them alone together...The other day I was in the living room and I heard Matthew start screaming... I run in the room to find Marcus crawling under Matthews bed to hide and Matthew just sitting there trying to catch his breath. It took me a minute to figure out why he was crying. Apparently Matthew sat on Marcus' race track so Marcus decided to whack Matthew across the head with one of his toy buckets! Poor Matthew ended up with a small cut and large line down his forehead, eye and cheek! But he did survive. Soon Matthew will be able to fight back and Marcus better watch out because I think Matthew is going to be bigger than Marcus very soon. Anyways I just thought I would also post these videos of Matthew, he seems to really enjoy music and dancing...something Marcus never really was interested in. It's really funny to watch him. Whenever we are watching t.v the moment he hears music he just starts going. So I thought it was pretty funny and I thought I would share.

Tattoo Pictures

Okay so here are some better pictures of Micah's New First tattoo. So he got it on his arm and so he had to shave his arm before he went to get it. Since Marcus is all about being like daddy he decided to shave his arm last night after daddy was done! Luckily he didn't cut himself and he only has a few bare spots. At least it wasn't his head! So After seeing daddy's tattoo today Marcus wanted one too and so there is also a picture of Marcus proudly displaying his "Wow Wow Wubbzy" Tattoo.



He did it! Micah decided to get a tattoo! Chris designed it and Micah had Aaron from our church do it. I haven't seen it in person yet but when I do I will take some better pictures for everyone to see!!
