October

This post is going to be a big photo purge and I don't have a lot to tell.  We've been busy and then sick, and then both! Harper is getting over a ruptured ear drum and ear infection, and I had the flu last week.  Let's hope Erich stays healthy for all our sakes.   Hopefully this weekendeveryone is more cooperative so we can head to the pumpkin patch in Roca.  Luckily we already picked our pumpkins in York last weekend.  Can't really beat free pumpkins and gourds, right?! Come on nice weather and healthy family!


Our haul...well, most of them came home with us.
Hard to believe that October is nearly half gone! It's been a busy month, and no plans to stop. Next week my sister and the kiddos are in town, boo at the zoo starts (I'll admit, I'm wearing my groovy hippie costume as I type this, I'm pretty excited about it) and then Halloween.  Harper says she wants to be a monkey, and it just so happens we have a monkey costume.  Problem is that she refuses to try it on, and when we're in the store she is frozen in front of the Ironman and Spiderman costumes.  So, we'll see what she ends up as. 

We did welcome our new niece, Anna Leigh,  into the world on September 24.  After a week long stay at the hospital, everyone was ready for them to be home and we are so excited she is healthy!


 
Not a lot more to report.  Just counting down the days to December when Erich and I head to DC for a good friend's wedding, as some sightseeing...let's hope the weather isn't completely awful!  And now, enjoy some pictures.
 





This pictures freaks me out big time.

Groundhog's Day

So, welcome to 2013!  January was full of busy-ness in the Kant home, what with potty training in full effect, work being super busy and, well, I'm just really tired.  Plus we moved out office into the basement and let's face it, out of sight, out of mind.  And despite the ipad and iphone within arm's reach, I can't figure out how to post from the damned things, so there you have it.  Like I said, January went by in a blur, but luckily the groundog (and more importantly, my mom, whose birthday is also today) didn't see their shadows, so yay! 6 weeks until Spring.  Harper has begun potty training (well, has been in panties full time since late December) and is doing great with the potty piece of it.  The pooping? Not so much, and what sucks is that she really couldn't care less when she drops one in her panties...this mom, however, could do without shaking poop out of panties multiple times a week. Our only saving grace is that she goes to the same place ...

Good Bye First Trimester!

I can't believe that I will be 12 weeks prego next week, it has gone by so fast. It's hellped that I haven't have any sickness, which I am very grateful for. I've kind of have the opposite; I am hungry but nothing sounds appetizing, so as a result I've lost weight. I got a nice little lecture from my dr last week, so I've been trying to eat more, and I think after this weekend, I have to have put on at least 10 pounds! Friday night we had Applebees where we polished off mozzarella sticks, I had a steak and potatoes and veggies, all so tasty! Then today we had Hu Hot for lunch, and just had McDonalds for dinner. I didn't say it was healthy, but it was definitely fattening! I seem to be getting my energy back, there for a while all I wanted to do was sleep. I could still sleep all day, but today I noticed I wanted to do some chores, so I guess that's an improvement. I've also had some lower back pain, which seems to be worse when I sit, which ...

My ego is prego

Yup, it's official! I am about 9 weeks prego! We found out at the end of August, and have slowly been telling people as we go. I've been feeling good, no morning sickness. I am always tired and hungry, but nothing sound appetizing. Well, except for turkey sandwiches slathered with mayo and tomatoes. Yum. We've had two appointments, one for my initial test, and another where they took all my blood for testing (well, it felt like it was all my blood anyway). They also found that my heart murmur had gotten worse, so I had an echo done last week. Everything was normal, so we're thankful for that. The tech even tried to find the little fella, but no luck that day. I also found out I'm Rh Negative, which means that my antibodies will most likely attack the baby's red blood cells upon birth, so I have some shots in the bum to look forward to. Both of our family's are very excited, and have already started collecting items for baby KIP (I stole this from the...
