Let Go BEARS!!!!

Cowboy Breakfast...

I am sure it is known as other things but this is what I know as a Cowboy Breakfast...

1) Start to fry an egg, salt and pepper

2) Butter bread (I prefer white)

3) Cutout hole in center ( a shot glass works perfect)

4)Once egg is ready to be flipped place bread over egg with yoke in the hole

5) Flip egg with bread

6) Flip back to original side and cook a little bit longer

7) Serve, hopefully the yoke is still a bit runny!

It had been at least ten years since I at one but the other day when I was talking to my sister this simple breakfast was brought up.  The only problem was that neither one of us could remember exactly how to make it.  After a call to my Dad and a reminder of the exact steps  I was able to make it.  Now after ten years I have had it four times in the past three weeks. Mmmmm!

Number two...

Yesterday it officially became known to everyone that Cody and I are expecting number two.  I am already 10 weeks along but I wanted to wait to tell my mom until her 50th birthday, so yesterday we put Madilyn in a "Big Sister" shirt that I made and waited until the message was seen..

Great timing on Cody's part, I don't think we could have gotten a better picture.  I am sure you can read more about it here.

First Vacation

Madilyn's First Vacation was a trip to my Oma and Opa's in Peteluma California for her Oma's 50th Birthday Celebration over Memorial weekend.  Although, I don't have any photos of it Madilyn was a perfect baby on the airplane.  I was so relieved not to be that person.  Here are some photos of our activities.  

First time in the pool...she loved the water!

But getting her sunscreen and her suit on her is another story...

Playing with Great Oma's flowers

Letting Opa hold her again, she really seemed to like him.

The only thing that was missing was her Daddy, but there is always next time.

Daddy's Little Girl

I look forward to Cody coming home from work everyday, so I can see the excitement and joy on Madilyn's face!

This past weekend we took out Madi's infant seat and replace it with this one...

Madilyn on Que...

She might have changed a lot in 4 1/2 months but she can still follow direction, also seen here.
(Obviously the film maker needs a little practice)

Happy Friday everyone!

Madilyn Rolls Over!

At 19 weeks, I am so excited. Apperently she got the hard part first. She still needs to figure out how to go the other way.

I'm sure some one would let me know if I didnt ask but tell me if you are unable to see the video.
