And The Results Are....

So, we just got back from getting our ultrasound, and we are having a boy.  His name will be Payton Bentley.  So, anyone with advice for me on raising boys, please let me know because I don't know what I'm going to do with a boy!  I also need suggestions on stores with cute boy clothes.  I think I know why we couldn't come up with a girl name now.  

Yoga Baby!

Baylee was so excited for her daddy to come home the other day because she wanted to do yoga with him. I just had to put a few pictures up from their little session (please ignore the fact that my kid decided yoga would be better done without clothes on).

The Waiting Game

So we did it!  We found a house, signed some papers, and our offer was faxed over last night. Two nights ago we were about to bid on another house (same model, same street, better backyard), but an offer had just barely been accepted.  So, now we got our offer in on choice #2, which we have decided will be better anyways, and are just waiting to hear back.  We should hear back in the next couple days, but who likes to wait?  Not me, that's for sure.  We are hoping this one works out, it's the house model that we've been wanting all along.  So, keep your fingers crossed for us!

Another one of our waits is slowly coming to a close also.  Two weeks from this past Monday (on the 26th) we have our ultrasound and will hopefully find out if baby#2 is a boy or girl!  Baylee keeps saying she wants a sister not a brother, so we will have to wait just a little longer to see if she gets what she wants or if we have to break the news to her that she's getting a brother.  I secretly want a girl too so Baylee can have a sister close to her age.  My sister and I are 8 years apart, and I had cousins my age on both sides with sisters just a couple years apart, and always wished I had a sister my age too.  But if it is a boy we will all be happy too!  I'm just hoping to be settled somewhere before this baby is born.  

So we will keep our blog updated as soon as we find anything out!  But for now, all we are doing is waiting.... 

Ringing In The New Year

I know this post os a little late, but I just wanted to put a few pictures up from our New Year's celebration.  This year I think is the first year that Ben and I actually stayed up until midnight together, and surprisingly Baylee stayed up just as late.  We went over to my Aunt Melissa's for a little party, and had a blast.  Here's a few things we did.

The front room had Rock Band going on, and Baylee jumped in and wanted to play the drums (she's takes after her mommy).  We also had a ton of food to munch on, Mexican Train Dominos, a lot of socializing, and later we played Apples to Apples.

My sister, Annie, and cousin Ryan also had some DS playing going on.  Baylee loves Ryan and just sat next to him on the couch and watched him play.  This was the calmest we saw her all night.

We also had a few pillow fights, and Baylee had to get in on that action, which I believe eventually broke out into a dart gun fight.  Don't worry, they were just plastic and velcro darts.

Midnight was there before too long, and we all went outside to make plenty of noise to ring it in.  We had a great time.

Also, as a late Christmas/Ben's new job (ok, it's been 6 months) celebration present, we bought ourselves a nice 50 inch plasma tv.  We love it!  So, anyone up for a Wii tournament or movie night, come on over!  We also found a couple of houses we are planning on putting offers in on, and we should have plenty room for visitors.  2009 should be a great year for us!  A lot of changes, but we are excited for them.  Happy New Years everyone!
