Much needed Update.

Since updating this blog last a lot has happened... we had a 25 week old preemie who we named Molly Marie... She passed away a month after she was born. We didn't go to Spain... and now everything is finally getting back to normal.. I guess you could say. Michaela is now 15 months old and is the best kid anyone could ask for, so sweet, smart and funny. She is growing like a weed. Shes got a growing vocabulary that holds about 7 or 8 words and she just loves animals. I cannot believe how the passed two years have flown by. My husband and I are the strongest we have ever been and are a fantastic pair.. compliment each other wonderfully. Its winter now and we are very excited to be going home to Jim's home state of Minnesota for Christmas. I am so excited to go and see family.. its really been too long.

But I wanted to update because I loved blogging, they might not be the most interesting posts, but they are a great way to sit back and remember whats been going on in our lives. Thats it for now, but Ill be posting alot more now.

So much to do, so little time!

Wow. I havent updated this in a minute, but so much has been going on! We are going to Spain in less than EIGHT weeks. I cannot wait.. Im so stressed out, there is so much that needs to be done, and I really cant do any of it because Im a dependent, I couldnt even make my own dental screening appointment, whatever.

I am 19 weeks pregnant and on Monday we find out the gender of the baby. I am so excited, I have a feeling its a boy, well maybe not a feeling but I really really hope its a boy. A girl would be amazing too, dont get me wrong... but if the baby is a boy, we will have one of each and can stop having babies, at least for a while. If it is a boy, we are 90% sure his name will be Maverick. If its a girl... we are still a little torn... maybe Molly.

Michaela is doing great! She is a couple days away from being 8 months old. She is getting ready to crawl... rocking on hands and knees. She wants to be on the move so bad! She still has no teeth and very little hair, but is honestly one of the cutest kids Ive EVER seen, but Im a tad bias. She LOVES the camera.. haha! Smiles whenever she can. She brightens up our lives. I think shes going to be an amazing big sister.

Overall... we are doing great! Going to Disneyland in May and then spending some quality time with my grandma before we leave... then we are in SPAIN, I cant wait! New place, new culture, new people and some pretty awesome old friends! Things couldnt be better for us right now!

If you havent heard

I'm pregnant, I am around 4 weeks. We found out on new years day. Smells were getting to me and I was bored, so I peed on that stick. I totally didnt expect to find what I did.. a extremely faint positive... but a positive none the less. I ran up the stairs and woke my husband with the stick it hand. We have been kind of trying, just by the old have a lot of sex method and he was really happy. Later that day we came up with the name if it is a boy. His name will be Harrison James Milne. I love it... its such a strong name. I was so surprised we agreed on a name.. I never thought it would happen. We havent found a girls name that we are completely in love with but we do like Genevieve, Molly and Heidi. I have a funny feeling its a boy tho.... but that might be because Im completely in love with the name Harrison. We will see...

I havent thrown up yet... which Im totally excited. With Michaela I got the worst morning sickness, it was horrible. I threw up at least 3 times a day for the first 14 weeks of my pregnancy.

Ill keep you guys updated!!!
