Karis is going to have a little...

Sister! Baby is a girl!

19 months and 19 weeks

My kiddos are 19 months old today and 19 weeks old (pre-birth). Something about this fact makes me incredibly tired.
No time for a nap today. First, I must clean the dirt from the balcony, living room, clothes and shoes. It wasn't funny at the time, and won't be until I'm done cleaning it up. Joey came over this morning to play with K and I left the door to the balcony open. Within a minute there was dirt (that used to be in the plant) everywhere! I sure do like the farming skills the kids have picked up from Uncle Mark, but from now on we will only practice farming at his house.

In other news: we're finding out if baby number 2 is a boy or girl tonight. I am such a great wife that I have not looked at the results of my ultrasound on Monday morning because Steven's been out of town. So finally the wait will be over in a few hours!

Smart girl

The sound is really behind the video. Anyone know how to fix it?

Friends

Karis has always considered Joey a friend, but it took Joey a little while to think the same of K. Now they are starting to play together better. K is always happy to see him. Especially in the nursery at church. I think it's b/c he's the only kid that speaks English. These were taken over the last couple months.

There's something I've been meaning to tell you...

Thanks for checking in on the blog! I think you'll be glad you did.
Way back on Feb. 21 we discovered a new family member was alive and well. A baby! I'm pregnant! The due date is Oct. 21. We've had one ultrasound and everything is good. We hope to find out soon if K will have a little brother or sister. We both are thinking the baby will be a girl. That would make birthday parties a lot simpler for the future since K's b-day is Oct. 25. Ha!

Half Birthday

Karis is 1.5 years old today. She is full of energy and becoming a little more trying of our discipline. Just recently she started "throwing fits". I believe she is cutting her 2 year molars because of the drool and crying at bed time. She still likes her tricycle and our weekly afternoon at the park. Cheerios are still her fav snack... that is b/c we only give her cookies every now and then. She has a sweet tooth just like me. Also she can sleep for hours and hours. She likes to try and put on her clothes and shoes or our clothes and shoes.
