Is that a baby in your tummy or are you just fat?

Here is an updated belly picture...26 weeks and 2 days. I haven't taken pics of my tummy since 20 weeks. I was so on top of it with Kayden...every two weeks! It doesn't help that my "turn over" is on Mondays, a dance night - so I am either exhausted or too lazy to take it!! I promised myself I'll stay on top of it after today! Its so crazy to look back on! I should fine the one of me pregnant w/ Kayden at this point!

Kayden visits Santa 2009

So Kayden LOVED Santa last year...this year he was all pumped to go visit Santa...until Santa decided (when we were the ONLY ONES IN LINE) to make small talk w/ a friend. My boy of "many" patience decided that was enough. Santa decided to be done chit chatting and Kayden threw a holy fit for him. Then Santa felt bad, real bad. In fact kept chasing me around the mall apologizing and asking me to come back. We eventually came back after finishing our shopping and Santa got out bubbles. Lucky for Santa...Kayden loves bubbles. He was pretty gun shy of him, but here are some pics. We did NOT sit on Santa's lap this year. :)

I don't know about this...but he has bubbles...


so he can't be all bad can he?

He's even sharing his bubbles...yep, I think I like him now.

A Visit to the Winter Wonderland

Last weekend we went with some friends to downtown Rochester's Winter Wonderland. It was a bit cold, but a really fun night!! Will be even funner when the kids get older as there was sleigh rides, an outside movie, and many other activities! Here are some pictures that we took. I know - we take a lot of pictures. Happy Holidays!

Kyle - some of these pics are for you! We missed you and wished you could have been there. We made Steve & Eric pose for pics for you!! Enjoy & stay safe, we all love you!

Vikings vs Bears

Last Sunday I surprised Eric w/ tickets to the Vikings game and a Farve jersey. I don't think he was as excited about the jersey as he was the tickets, but we still went and had fun. Of course, drunks next to us - that's always a give in at a football game, and it is my luck. Here are some shots of the game!


Vikings are #1


Here comes #4...in PURPLE, Brandon!


Waiting for the team to run out

The 2009 MN Vikings! (from the nose bleed seats!)

#4 takes the first snap!

Farve throwing it in

Cheerleaders, their head coach used to work for JFK and actually coached me a couple years at camp!

Drunk guy sitting next to us insisted on taking a picture and then telling us we were for sure "going to get lucky tonight." YEA - he was fun.

Farve for the touchdown...

...and the extra point is good!

We did better w/ the self shot then the drunk guy did.

Farve taking a breather to let T Jax play!
