I've got the fever...

and I've got it bad...and it really doesn't help that all these people around me keep having kiddos.  And I'm also not helping myself when I go on pinterest and just look for cute baby stuff...le sigh.
Erich has the fever, see!

In other news, we've been kind of lazy lately, and are definitely looking forward to September where the only thing we have planned in a new baby niece or nephew around 9/19 (international talk like a pirate day mateys). Oh, and my birthday, of course.  We had a "surprise" shower in York last weekend for my sister in law, and had a nice weekend with Kant family kiddos. It could have been sunnier, but really, I didn't mind the shade...it was a nice change of pace. 





Harper started swimming lessons at Lifestrokes here in Lincoln last week, and she loved it.  It's small groups of mom/dads and the child, and they start with small things, like getting wet, holding their breath, floating with mom/dad.  I dropped the ball, (kind of, I still don't think this is my fault) this week.  They changed the class time to 1/2 hour earlier, and I didn't get the voicemail.  Well, I got it, but my gd phone doesn't always alert me of missed calls or messages, particualarly when the battery is low, which is always...so, long story short Wednesday night we left there in tears (Harper because she was disappointed to not get to swim, me because I was mad because my kid was not going to swim and because of the schedule change, don't judge)...so we went home and filled up her pool, and she was happy as a clam.  So now we know for next week at least.

Harper also got her first official haircut. I cheated on the fantastic gal that does my hair, mainly because it was kind of last minute and I had a coupon...risky. But she did a nice job, and now she can see out from under her bangs!








This weekend we're going to bbq with some friends, then go see a baseball game in Omaha. Going to be a nice night--it's farm night, and the first 2000 people get a cow bell.  Maybe that will cure my fever...

Don't be fooled, it's not done...




Our cowgirl...Yee Haw!

I've got the fever too, Susie :( I've also gained several pounds of "sympathy weight" for all my friends who have had babes this year! Ha!

Booker's First Birthday

While he didn't get to go to Disneyworld with us, he did get a pretty high flyin' party.  I may have gone a leeetle overboard with the party.  But hey, you only turn once right, and he may be my last :( Our theme was, Time Flies, and we used my Uncle's vintage toy plane for the invites.  Pretty cute kiddo.  It was also pre haircut, so he still looked like a baby. Of course I can't find that picture, so here is this one.  He's still cute.   Just a small party with family, and he had a great time.  He has already changed so much since this day.  He was just starting to make words and now can say Mama, Dada, Harper, Abs, Dude, and a lot of signs.  He also loves to dance, and is seriously the most cuddly sweet boy you will meet.  We love our little Bubba!

September is here!

Well, it's practically here. Where did August go? Where did the summer weather go? I don't care, it's Fall weather here in Nebraska and I hope it's going to stay well into November. Ahh, September, it's my favorite month...and not just because it's my birthday month 29 on the 9th, it's kind of a golden birthday-9/9/09, so that means extra gifts, right? Right. We are very busy this month. This weekend is the first Husker game of the season, so my mom and I are getting out of dodge to visit my sister (I am displeased to learn that my brother in law is renting the game, I can't escape it!). We're going to a pirate festival, and a carnival, and to this awesome little kitchen store in downtown Independence. So excited for family fun. My nephew told me I can sleep in his bed, but only if I wear underwear...um, deal? Erich has many options that weekend, we have an engagement party in York, going to the game, watching the game...who knows how crazy he'll...

Disneyworld!

 We went to Disneyworld at the beginning of the year and had so much fun!  One of the best decisions we ever made, especially with Harper.  She was a great age to really soak everything in and be in awe of the parks.  Except Harry Potter World, which we decided was really more of an Erich/Susie/Couples trip.  Any takers?  I could try and detail out the trip, but I think the pictures do a much better job.
