Halloween

Ok Mom here are some pics of the girls on Halloween.
Sadie is an astronaut
Hannah is a peacock (first and last costume I will ever make)
Bella is a China doll

Ya I know its been a long time

So my last post was in Feb. not much to tell after that because I was so tired I dont remember. Seriously. But now we actually have another boy in the house. On October 6th we welcomed Tyler Johan Carlson into our family. He looks just like Hans except he has red hair. My good friend Stacey and I went to the hospital the same day to be induced by the same DR. Our husbands kept texting each other with updates. They did not know what they were having. Ty was born first and then we got the text that we needed to pick out matching baseball uniforms, they had a boy too! Ty is a sweet baby and is finally sleeping for 3 hours at a time at night, that 2 hour thing was killer. All the girls just love him even Bella, they are three little mothering maulers. We are blessing him this weekend and all my family is coming.

Feb 2010

Hannah turned 5! She woke up and said "oh its about time, I have been waiting years, weeks, months, days!" She had a costume party theme and the kids had a great time. Linda made her a Fancy Nancy dress/cape to wear at her party which she went absolutely crazy over.
I went on my scapbook weekend and had so much fun, I can't wait to do it again. Hans had fun with the girls but I think he was glad to have me home. But probably not anymore because I came home unusually tired and a little sick to my stomach. Which has now turned into major exhaustion and nausea, hence the 2 pink lines in the picture. Hans might need a boys scapbook weekend in a few months!

More sledding pics

Holy Crap does the snow ever end!??

We have had record breaking snow out here and not one of these east coasters knows how to handle it. Its a gud thing they have us here Idahoans to take care of everythin.
We have had sooo much fun sledding down our hill. Our neighbors think Hannah is going to be in the X games. We got 6 inches on Tuesday then 34 inches on Friday. More snow is coming this Tuesday, sweeeet. My scrapbook weekend getaway is this weekend and I am going no matter what! Here are some great pics of our sledding adventure.
And I sent Sadie off to a friends house and a cheetah came home in her place.

Last half of 2009

October and November were great months for us. Sadie was baptized and most of the the family came out and we had a great time. The day after they left Hans and I took off to St. Lucia for our 10th anniversary for a week. It was awesome and I can't believe we came back. Then in November Hans and I ran in the Richmond 1/2 marathon and actually finished. It was something I wanted to do before I turned 30. A few days after that I came home to find a surprise party for my birthday. It too was very fun. Then a few days after that it was Bellas birthday and we had a little family party. Then Thanksgiving was upon us, and then finals for me, and then Christmas whew! Now we are in the new year and things have slowed down thankfully. Here are some pictures that Hannah took of herself when she snuck off with the camera, one of Hans and I on the beach, and one of the marathon.
