Giggle Giggle ***updated***

I know something you don't know.......

More details later when I get a chance to upload the ultrasound pics!!! :)

(for now... it's off to the firm Christmas party.... laters.)



***update***

IT'S A.....


Well, really, I don't think there is any need to go into detail, if you need any help figuring out whether it is a boy or girl, let me know. :)

YIPEE!!!

Need to entertain the kiddos in a hotel room....?

Make sure to bring an ice chest.

Ryan's early Christmas present...

COOL!!!

Gingerbread House with Aunt Ashley

Ryan got to make his first gingerbread house.... Aunt Ashley was a big help.



Beautiful, No?

So Cute!

Since we were in Austin, we met up with an old college friend. She had twins about 6 months ago, so I got to meet them for the first time..... so cute!!!!



Aren't they adorable?!!

Hodge Podge

Okay, so its been awhile.... Here are a hodge podge of shots.

Thanksgiving fun with the Lobato family






Of course, we can't drive past Arbuckle without stopping.... so we stopped.

Love the giraffes.... they are my favorite.

Bison anyone? Or, attack of the killer camels? Which do you prefer?


Now, there is always time to sword fight with Papi at the new house... after, of course, stopping to play at Lowes for a bit. (I think the kiddos think Lowes is our second home.)

Smartest kid ever or just confused?

A couple of conversations with Ryan P. over the past few days.

#1: I am holding a dinosaur up in the air when Ryan walks by...
Ryan: "Mama, that dinosaur can't fly.... That's not a pterodactyl, that's a T-Rex."
Me: "Uhhh, yes, you are correct, sorry 'bout that."

#2: As we are discussing upcoming Thanksgiving...
Ryan: "Yeah, its where you get lots of candy when you go to Santa's Tomb!"
(How many holidays is that.... four???)

#3: Bedtime Stall Tactics: After coming to the bathroom to get a drink of water:
Ryan: "Good night.... See you in the morning... Make sure you eat lots and lots of food, so you don't get cold!!!"
Me: "That doesn't even make sense.... go to bed."

#4 Ryan is eating grapes:
Me: "You need to eat at least three of those before you get down."
Ryan: "So, if I eat one, then I will only have to eat two more.... and if I eat two, then I will only have to eat one more?"
(Wow, who knew he could subtract... mommy was very proud.)

There are plenty more, but I will save them for later.... #2 is my favorite right now.

Oh yeah, I think we forgot to mention....

WE'RE HAVING A BABY!!!
Due May 12th (ish)

Introducing babybean 3.0...


Mom and Babe are doing great!

We'll keep you updated. :)

Just in case one particular person who reads this blog cares...

Isn't the dermatology department at OU beautiful? I mean, who wouldn't want to work there???



We would have posted pictures of the inside but it is so beautiful we feared it might have undo influence on a certain someone.... But I will say the inside is so much better than this....

(ignore the subtitles)



No pressure Ash! (We love you!) :)

NAKED BABY!!!

Okay, so we have the most adorable video of Aberly EVER!!!! However, she is in the tub, which means she is naked. We were somewhat hesitant to post the video, but if you want to see it let me know and I will send it your way. If you like laughing babies, you will love the video. :)

Bad parents of the month...

So.... we apparently have taken a total of four pictures of our children since Halloween. Enjoy...!!!


Aberly LOVES kitty cats. Maybe one day...


Isn't she just the cutest!

Doughnuts are yummy... especially chocolate ones!

Happy Halloween

Introducing Peter Pan and Tinkerbell....

More Halloween Fun

New Shoes from Nana

Nana got these lovely galoshes for Aberly. She wore them quite a bit last week when we were in Texas... so Nana was nice enough to send them back home with her big brother. When I pulled them out of the suitcase, she got all excited. She immediately put them on and ran for the front door, the entire time saying.... Nana Nana!!! I think she likes the gift Nana.... Thanks!!!





Jump around... jump around... jump up, jump up, and get down!!! (of course, Ryan can't be upstaged by baby sister.)

Pre- Halloween Fun

At the last minute, we decided to head to the lake for a little Halloween fun. Since it wasn't exactly planned, we didn't have the kiddo's costumes, but I think they had fun anyway. I mean, they got candy.... what more could they want?



We played some games....



... and got some candy from storybook characters.


Sorry about the lack of Aberly photos.... most of them included me.... and well, I don't post photos of me, if I can help it. :)

Our Kids are Cute....

...I'm sorry, but its true!




Fun times at Steak-N-Shake.



Looky who sleeps in a big girl bed now...
