A Couple Pics of the Remodel and Some Randoms

I thought this picture of Jobi was so cute and funny. He was wearing some of my glasses and sitting in the front seat. He looked like a little old lady to me and a mix of a skater boy. Is it just me? HaHa!
What a handsome boy! He doesn't get any cuter.
Another great shot of my boy. He is so into football and basketball. He knows everything about every detail and player in both sports. It's amazing how much he knows. I love how passionate he is about sports and I hope it continues as he keeps getting older.
Jobi and the Bostons on a walk around our lake. The mountains make a pretty back drop too.
Jon at the airport. He is pretty cute.
Here is a picture of Jon's new office/the old dining room. It looks better now that we have unpacked it a bit and put in the ceiling light. I'll take a better picture soon.
This is the new baby's room/Jon's old office. We put up wainscoting and a shelf and painted the walls and ceiling blue. It looks really good.
This is the shelf that is part of the wainscoting. I love it! We clearly need to get the carpets cleaned! I hope the furniture we choose goes good in here. I'll take pictures of that along the way too. I'm so excited to see it all done. Our Carpenter did a great job. He is the best!

Ultrasound

This is an updated picture of the baby bump and the baby's new room. We went and got an ultrasound this weekend and found out it is for sure a boy and he looks normal. We can hardly wait to meet him. He just needs to grow some more.
Here is me at the ultrasound. My best friend Lisa was in town for the ultrasound. It was so nice that she got to be there with me and Jon and Jobi. She is as excited as we are to welcome a new Gelder boy into our family.
Here is a little baby hand all opened up. It is so cute and weird to think of how tiny it actually is. I love to see him move all around and all the tiny baby body parts. How lucky am I that I get to experience this all again. I never thought I would get to experience being pregnant again or get the chance to be a mother of 2. I can't wait for June. It seems so far away.
Cute little face shot. Looks like he is going to be pretty handsome. Just like his big brother!

Oldies

I stole some of these pictures from Erin's blog, but I wanted them on mine too! We recently made a quilt for my mom for her birthday and we used old pictures on the quilt. Here are some that we used. This is a family photo of me growing up. We are just missing little Kate. This was in 1979. Isn't my mom soooo pretty in this picture? I loved her hair.

This is Erin riding her bike naked of course. She is so cute!
This is me! I was such a little model. Bow chicka bow bow! Diggin the curlers.
This is a picture of Erin, Kate, Great Grandma Jo, and Chad. Great Grandma Jo was such a special person. She lived to be like 95 and had the best sense of humor right to the end. She was so cute.
Here is Chad and the brother he never had, Erin. She was his little shadow.
Look at that farm boy. He still really loves to fish.
This is Kate on her 2nd birthday. She is the cutest kid. You can definitely see some Reese in Kate.
Joey with her mullet and cinderella dress. What a perfect picture.
Speaking of weird 80's hair, look and me and Erin's funny bangs. We are all still pretty cute here though.
I love this picture. Everything about it is a great memory. The 80's were fun.
My mom must have been out of town because whenever she did, my dad would buy us a soda as a treat. I don't remember the last time I had a squirt. What a bunch of cute kids.
Now we are just missing Chad. All us girls and Mom and Dad. Seems like forever ago.
My mom and cute baby Jobi. They are both so smiley! Cute, cute!
My mom came to visit me somewhere that I lived. Probably Boise.
This was when I was in High School. I look so young. Time flies.
High School Graduation! That was only almost 16 years ago. That sounds like forever! What good looking parents I have.
In high school we went to Big Sky skiing as a family and here is a photo of it. For some reason I got to bring my high school boyfriend. He was my boyfriend and my best friend and he was also one of Joey's best friends. So, we had a lot of fun. Everyone has grown up so much since then.

Random December Shots

The dogs got a candy cane chewstick for Christmas. Quincy got it first because she's the oldest. They still haven't finished it! The old lady just gums it.
Here is a blurry picture of her first getting it. Haines kept trying to take it away and Quincy didn't like that at all.
Jon and his little girl, Haines. She gets tired at night and starts getting pretty snuggly.
Ruby was resting her head on Haines' back. They both get glued to the fire when it is on. They love it.
My baby girl, Ruby. She is so photogenic.
Jon carries Haines around like a purse a lot. She has a lot of extra skin still. She doesn't even get upset.
I'm not sure who this nerd is. I think he just sat in the hot tub and made some awesome hair doo.
It's like they are in love. They are always resting in the sun if the fire isn't on.
A picture of our crooked Christmas tree. I ended up adding a bunch of clear lights to make it not so blue. Next year we are getting a fake tree because Jon has had it with putting up a real one and all the drama thats involved in getting it straight and staying in the stand with out it tipping over.

P.S. Haines chewed our couch tonight to the point that we have to get rid of it. I am so mad and it makes me not want to go out and buy a new one because she will just chew it up too! Naughty girl! She is the worst puppy i've ever had!

Crazy Hat Day

We went to my grandma and grandpa's house to clean it out recently and we came upon some old hats we used to play with when we were little. Reese looks lovely in this purple number. She wanted to try them all on and have her picture taken, but somehow I just got this one of her.
Me. I made everyone take a picture with this hat on. It was a cute hat.
Joey
Mom
Erin
Erin again
Kate. Look at all those rings. She must be a gypsy woman!

A Couple Pictures of Our New Little Boy

So, it's a boy! We are so excited that we finally know what kind of baby we are having! We were kind of expecting a girl, so a boy was a bit of a surprise. We decided to find out what we were having early so we can start shopping and planning. There is a place in the mall called, Fetal Studio, and they do an ultrasound to see what you're having as early as 14 weeks. I was 14 weeks this week, so we decided to find out! This picture is of the butt view. You can clearly see the little penis on the picture.
This picture is a little harder to see it, but it was very clear to see on the monitor. We also got to see the baby move all around and have the hick ups and kick his legs all around. It was the cutest thing to watch. I could watch my baby on the screen all day. So cute! Jobi's whole face lit up when he got to hear the heart beat and when he found out it was a boy. He is so excited to be a big brother and to a boy especially!
I'm getting big already! My stomach isn't the only thing thats growing either. I'm scared to see what I will look like in 6 months! Yikes! I hope you guys are all as excited as we are.

Not Christmas, Halloween!

Here is Jobi on Halloween night. He is a football player and he has 2 hotdogs. He was so cute and we had a great time trick or treating!
Here is Jon and Jobi carving pumpkins. They had a great time making them come alive.
Happy campers!
I thought about being Jobi for Halloween, but Jon didn't think I looked liked him enough. I wore his hat and shirt and shoes and borrowed his football. Maybe it was the curly blonde hair that didn't work. Pretty funny though and Jobi is always pulling that face!
Here is the finished result. They did a great job.

What do you think of my Hainey dog?
Or my Ruby dog?
I like that they match. Ruby looks pouty!

I feel like eating a skinny long legged hot dog right about now!
