This weekend we went to pick out a pumpkin in the super-hot weather... Well, we didn't last that long at Ebert's in Ixonia, however, we still fit in a hay-ride, and some good time in the bouncy house/wacky house and inflatable slide... Of course we also picked out a pumpkin!

After we got home and cooled off a bit, we ran through the sprinkler, and played in our new sandbox and our new basketball hoop that Ellie can actually make a basket on her own without dada's help!

Our Baby is 2 YEARS OLD!!!

Ellie didn't want any cake on her b-day party, but on her actual b-day we sang to her again and she blew out her candle... I can't believe our big girl is already 2 years old!!! She's still as cute as ever!!!

Here's a picture from her actgual b-day party... She had a blast... Thank you so much to everyone who came, and thank you so much for all of the generous gifts! Ellie has been having a great time playing with all of them!!!

Baby # 2's D'ebut

Well, yesterday Matt and I went to get a glimpse of what our future baby girl (verified) is going to look like, and personally I think she's going to look just like Ellie... She's already working on the chubby cheeks!!! What do you think? Hope you enjoy her D'ebut!!!

Open mouth (her arm was by her face almost the whole time!)
Look at this HUGE yawn! What a tired little monkey!!!

Fun in the ... well, indoor-sun :)

We had a blast going to the Blue Harbor Resort with the Dornfeld side of the family... The resort itself had a few issues, but we still had a blast! So of course we had to share a few pics!

Few Requests...

I've had a few requests to see what my belly looks like, sooo, I thought I'd post here as well as this will eventually be a shared blogspot... Sooo, here we go.. Ahhh!!! I look like I'm 2 months more preggers than I am! My doctor keeps reassuring me I'm measuring right on, but come on!!!

Weekend with the girls... Ella Ella Ella!!!

Well, this weekend Carla, Laura, Cassy and Ella all came over for some girl time, and we had a blast... Carla had to leave Sat. morning, but Cassy, Ella, Laura, Ellie and I headed out for the zoo, despite the momentary rain (that missed us barely) and had a great time! Ellie was sad to see Ella go though, she kept asking for her after she left!!! It was hard for her to understand Ella had to go home eventually... It was cute though!

Here we are on the way in... Sadly it looks like a smudge got on the lense :( * It started raining right after we got there...

The girls had a good time sitting on their own animal chairs! They're getting to be big girls!!!

Here we are at the zoo a year before!!!
Ellie didn't want much to do with me in this picture but Cassy and Ella look so cute I had to share!
Here we are on our way out! The girls had a great time!!!

This last pic is the night before we went to the zoo the year before... It's crazy to see how much these girls grew in one year!!!

Airplane/Itsy Bitsy...

Matt and Ellie have a great time playing airplane, so we thought we'd share!

Ellie doesn't always like to be on camera, so we tried to catch her without her knowing... I didn't realize how zoomed out it was, but you still get the picture! She's learning!!! :) We also sing the ABC song a lot, but really you can only hear a letter or two from Ellie, but we have fun! :)
