Slapshots with Daddy

Now that we are getting the hang of our hockey skates, 

it is time to brush up on the slapshot!

Not to be outdone, Zoe joined in the action.

It's Official

Hi everyone!  Sorry it has been so long since I last posted, but I have been a bit under the weather.  We found out in December that we are expecting baby Drum #3.  After my doctor's appointment today, I feel confident enough to spread the wonderful news.  Zoe and I were able to see the baby and to see it's little heart beating away.  Little "pumpkin" (as we have now named it) was moving around and even waved to us.  

We are expecting the new addition sometime around August 20th and are very excited.  Now, mommy just needs to get through the next couple of weeks of "all-day" sickness and hopefully she can then start to really enjoy this pregnancy.  On the bright side, if there is one, I am now at the lowest weight I have been at since high school.  I have to find a positive in everything or I won't make it through this first trimester!!!

Here are a couple pictures of the baby's first ultrasound

You can see the little hand on the left waving to you!

Zoe has officially claimed these pictures as her "baby paper"!

Are you ready to rock?

Playing Rock Band is a family affair.  Maybe we have a musician in the works?!?!?

J.T.'s Award

J.T. received a certificate and a patch, yesterday, for passing Snowplow Sam 2.  We are so proud of him and so lucky that Mom-Mom and Ashley got to see him skate.  Next up, Hockey Tot 1!!

Goodbye Grandpa Walt

Today, the world lost a very special man.  He was an awesome grandpa and I learned so much from him.  He is my strength and now he is my angel.  At least I have the comfort of knowing he is in heaven with his Father.  

I love you and miss you Grandpa Walt.  

New Bikes

The kids must have been extra special this year because Santa brought them some new bikes.  Both kids were so excited to see them waiting in the living room.  I think Zoe spent most of the time on her bike trying to look into her stocking at the same time!  What a wonderful morning it was.  

The first glance!

What did we get?!?!?

 Time to test out the bikes!

I think it is time to take this outside!

Test drive outside.

 Pros

 J.T. doesn't need training wheels
 

So much fun!

I think this may be backwards

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night...

Hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!!!
