'Hawks Spirit!

We had a lot of fun this winter watching the Seattle Seahawks make it to and then eventually WIN the Superbowl! The girls had a great time rockin' their jersey's all season and Kennedy got to wear her hawks gear to Pre-K every Friday in support. Poor Sean got the stomach flu on Superbowl Sunday so our plans for a party were cancelled. Instead, our little family of 4.2 stayed home and watched the game together on the couch. :)

 

Kennedy's whole school on Blue Friday! 

 

Turning 32...

My 32nd birthday came and went pretty quietly this year.

I was six weeks pregnant on my birthday and I felt every bit of that 6 weeks

(i.e. extremely tired and nauseous).

 

We did go out to dinner a few days before with Heidi and Brian at Wasabi Bistro (one of my very favorite restaurants in Seattle). Sean's friend Scottie joined us for dinner, as well. It was a fun relaxing dinner and the food was DELISH.

 

Looking forward to meeting my new son or daughter during this 32nd year. ;)

 



Kennedy is Five!

Kennedy turned FIVE on February 10th!

I am in disbelief at how fast these past five years have gone.

I owe my girl a birthday letter ... hope to get that posted soon.

Until then, here are some photos from her 5th birthday party at Super Jump Party Zone!

She had a great time running and bouncing around with her friends and cousins!

 

Thanks to Sean's cousin Clare who took these photos for me!  

We had a little family party on the evening of her real birthday.
Kennedy and Mara are always SO excited for each other's birthdays. It is really cute!

I love how Mara is standing right next to Kennedy in these photos, so genuinely happy for her

(or possibly trying to get in on the candle-blowing action, not sure which... ha!)

 

 



February Snow Day (backdated post)

We had a fun, unexpected snow day in early February!
A few photos of our fun morning of snow play with our neighborhood posse!

Two Girls and a Peanut

We are so excited to finally share the news that we are expecting baby #3! We had our 12 week ultrasound today and everything is looking wonderful. The first trimester has kicked my butt, I am not even going to lie (which is why I haven't blogged in two months!) Lots of nausea, lots of fatigue and even some moments of wondering "why am I doing this again?"

 

BUT... I am now feeling a lot better and after seeing our new little peanut on the ultrasound screen today, I have officially fallen in love... again. :) Can't wait to meet this new little guy or gal in October! And no, we won't be waiting to find out the sex... you know I am completely incapable of that. I am impatiently waiting for six more weeks until they can tell us if we will have a trio of girls or if Sean will finally have an ALI. ;) Truly, we don't care either way... he or she will be a beautiful blessing to our family!
