5 MONTHS & counting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5 Months. . . . half way through. Braces & belly all at once! It's all quite the experience with two little ones running at my feet and now bumping into my belly or thinking my belly is a resting ledge for them. ;)

Happily for me all is going GREAT. No preggo issues - just the normal tiredness & starting not to feel guilty about how much I'm eating. :)

20 weeks sono - Baby P #3 looks great. And there's just no telling if it's a he or she.

Lake Cabin!

The Patrick Bird House!



Many of you out of towners have asked for pics.


Here is the lake side view. We are located in one of the many coves on the small lake. A cove we like to claim as the best on the lake!

This is the front door that walks into the dining area on right side and the bar on the left. Straight into the great room.

Here is the back side of our kitchen with the 2 bedrooms to the right and further right is the main bathroom.

Straight across from the kitchen is an AWESOME pantry! That all my women-folk can appreciate!

The kitchen with a nice wide window overlooking the play area, bbq grill & a great view to the main part of the lake.

A bird's eye view from the loft to the great room below. A small spiral staircase far to the left that leads to an unfinished basement. "Soon to be" (winter project) a playroom for the boys.





Main bathroom on the main level next to the 2 bedrooms. The main bathroom has a tub and a stackable washer & dryer in the closet.

Staircase to the birds' nest. And Big Daddy, Rob writing down all honey-dos left to do at the lake cabin. ;) We still have a lot of work to do.








The birds' nest! With it own full bathroom (shower stall).

And a great view to the great room, deck and lake!

The bird's house was mainly built by Patrick Exteriors (and interiors). The big components: electric and plumbing were done by our close friend, Kevin aka Uncle KK, HVAC was installed by Trey & Carson's Step-Grandpa Gordon and lots of hours from other family and friends.

We are so thankful to everyone who helped build our bird house! We love it and couldn't be more thankful to have a wonderful place to go to every weekend!

SUMMER SUMMER TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We've been having a great summer! We are enjoying our lake cabin VERY MUCH! Both boys love the water! If we aren't at our lake cabin, we are at the pool or having sprinkler parties! It's been great and HOT in KC.

Growing along in 2010. . . . . .

Trey & Carson are growing fast! They are having so much fun together.

They love to play in the backyard in their sand box & swing set. And LOVE to have their friends over to play.

They enjoy going to theFarmstead, the park, the zoo and just getting down and dirty in all the mud puddles!

Trains, BIG trucks, airplanes & tractors are their favorite indoor activities.

On rainy days, the boys enjoy the movie Cars and Finding Nemo. They really get a kick out of dancing to any fun music.

But by far, their favorite is BATH TIME! They just LOVE the water! They can't wait for the summer to jump into the pool and lake!!!!!!!!!!!

Carson's 1st Birthday!

Carson turned ONE! It is an amazing little creature! Lots of wild energy daily! We like to call him the C-Monster. He is walking by his first birthday, chasing as fast as he can after Trey! He loves to play trains & trucks, but mostly likes to unload every cabinet & drawer in the house. He is ONE big bundle of action.

CALI 2010!

Mima this is fun!
