After many unsuccessful attempts to create a family blog, I finally figured it out! I'm sure you are all as excited as I am!
Just a quick update on the family:
1) Cael is tall enough and rode his first rollercoaster ride at Sea World. The Shamu Express was quite the exciting ride and we got some great action shots with our trusty camera. He was a little wary at first, but by the second time around he started saying "Woo Hoo" and he had a huge smile on his face.
2)Cael also learned how to ride his trusty Red Rocket Schwinn WITHOUT training wheels! You can believe that Ben was very proud of his 'big boy' and Cael was proud of himself as well. I had been to a Young Women meeting and when I got home they sure had a surprise for me. I almost started crying just because he is my baby and isn't supposed to grow up! When I said that to Cael he replied "I'm not little, I'm a big boy! "I guess that is what happens when your boy is almost 3 years old, they start telling you that they are big :)
3) We are having a baby in July! I'm currently 32 weeks along and we've been calling my tummy "baby brother" and are not quite sure on a name yet, although when asked what he thought of the name Connor, Cael said "that's a good name". So we will see if the little guy looks like a Connor. If anyone has any boy names that they would like to pass along, please feel free to send them our way before too long :)
4) Life is busy-- We are almost finished with our home remodeling and hopefully it will be completely finished by the time the little guy arrives. Our home was built in 1981 and needed some updating. It has been fun, although a little more expensive than we had originally planned for. However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel and so we are hopeful of its' completion
5)We just got back from the library for our weeks ration of new children's' books for Cael. We have read our own collection so many times that Ben and I have them memorized. We enjoy the change and have found some pretty entertaining books as well, such as "Drat that Fat Cat" and "Scaredy Squirrel" (really funny), just to name a few.
Well, that is our family update for now, hope that everyone enjoys it!
