Family Split

Brady's first t-ball game was today at 11:00 am. Brady and Dad headed out to the field but it was too cold so they cancled the game.

Abby's first dance competition for this season was today at 11:00am. Abby and Mom headed to the competition and were there all day!

Abby recieved a 2nd place for her solo "Beautiful"

and a 1st on her group dance "Money"

Playground Finished!!!!!!!!!

Got the landscaping and mulch done.........

1st Practice!

It was a success! From what we can remember! We have great parents and everyone was excited. Ten 3 and 4 year old, their siblings, parents, grandparents a mass confusion at all times. No seriously Brandon had three stations set up we had parents helping in two, so it went well. Most importantly the kids had fun! They were troupers, even though an 1.5 hour practice. I have great expectation for a fun filled season. I had intentions of taking pictures but that didn't happen.

Bengi - I need some ideas to keep all the kids stuff organized in the dugout. Kimi you are welcome to suggest too just figured the experience sports mom might have a few ideas : )

The Third! Who has time?

I know I am the worst parent ever! I have my pic at school and I just keep forgetting to scan it. It is not a great picture but I will try to get it done. I will put it on my springbreak list! Glad that you got to see/hear heartbeat and everything is going well. I am looking forward to starting to feel better, I hope sooner than later. Not enjoying being to fat for regular clothes! Been tired this week, and crapping - more constipated than anything else. FUN!!!!!

No 2nd-Child-Syndrome Here...yet!

I'm posting ANOTHER ultrasound pic, in hopes this will FINALLY prompt a post of Brandon & Kati's ultrasound.

I had my first visit back with my regular OB-GYN, and they did a quick in-office ultrasound, just for fun. :) The picture isn't great, but we just wanted to see the heartbeat and got to see our little peanut moving around! She wants to take an ultra-conservative approach & continue the progesterone through the end of the first trimester (2 more weeks), which isn't a big deal, but I was looking forward to stopping them this week. She said my "real" ultrasound will be around 16 weeks, and I can hardly wait to find out the gender!!

Oh - I titled this post as such because at this point we have 4x the pictures of Cade! I know, I know, it is sure to catch up with me when we have our hands full with both of our little bundles of joy...it is just such a precious, fleeting time, I hope to really cherish each moment & video- or photo-op.

I've also published our new baby page on chadandkimi.com:

Coach St.John????????

In February of 2009 Brady St John was signed up for his inaugural debut in T-Ball, which starts on March 28th. Daddy St John signed up to be an assistant coach. Sounded fun and I want to learn together with my son. Daddy St John was called today 03-08-09 and informed that I would need to pick up my packet for my team (Indians). I have no idea what the hell I am doing, but I figure it will be an adventure that I cannot refuse to do. When I went to pick up my packet, I was really trying to figure out why my team could not adopt the name *Bears* (Get it Bad News Bears). Yes, I wanted to share my story with you guys, but I also wanted to offer advice: These little things as shared above are the little things that I know if I had not took on this I would be regretting it a few years down the road.
