SNOW SNOW SNOW

Haley wrote Santa a letter today!

Haley was excited to see that it snowed this morning! So first things she wanted to do was go play in it. Since I have a cold or something I told her she had to wait for Daddy J to get up and go hang up xmas lights. So when he finally got up she was excited and ready to go.

She was even jumping in the leaf pile while playing in the snow.

Xmas decorations are up!

Well we hung up all the xmas decor...minus outside lights.

Haley came back home today from daddy's...we are on our way to a baby shower.

We taught her how to bowl on the wii and she liked it but kept getting frustrated with the controller.

On Thanksgiving we took some belly pictures with me and dad, and dad, Jason, and I...so check them out.

Painting, Relaxing, and Cleaning

Well we are trying to take it easy but we still have so many things to do.

I wrapped presents and we put up the xmas tree so when Haley gets home we can decorate it.

We painted primer on the baby's walls in his room so we can paint it blue...we are getting rid of the HOT PINK!

I have also included a picture of our new entertainment center.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Well we went to hang out with gma and gpa paxton for a little while before they left for Florida with mom and dad. Then Haley went with her daddy...Jason and I headed to eat turkey, noodles, mashed potatoes, and much more! It was so delicious! Then headed to Grandma Schultz's to visit.

Jason and I took it pretty easy tonight. We got the christmas tree up but not decorated. Then we played some Wii. I beat Jason in bowling and we tied in baseball. We also played Mario Cart but I need to practice that one it is kinda hard. He is in there boxing again!!

The parents and grandparents are headed to Florida.

Hope everyone had a great THANKSGIVING!!! Xmas is on the way.

I have 10 weeks left of the pregnancy. We will definately be having Mr. Caden on Feb 11 unless he decides to come early.

What has been happening at our house!

Well Jason has come home...it isn't going to hit us for awhile that he is never leaving again!

On Saturday we took a trip to Ohio to IKEA and we bought a new entertainment center...Jason put it all together and it looks awesome! We also got a coffee table and end tables to match...we are loving it.

The house looks like a tornado hit it because of moving everything around and Jason moving back home for good with all of his stuff. Hopefully soon we will get it all cleaned up. As soon as we do we are putting up our xmas stuff.

We still need to paint the baby's room, but the room is taped up for painting.

Haley had dance class and I finally got to go in and watch yesterday. They were so cute in their doing ballet and tap. I took some pictures.

Haley was a pilgrim as she went to another preschool to have a Thanksgiving Feast.

Tonight Jason finally turned on the Wii...Haley played for a little but needs to keep practicing. Jason is playing right now..boxing because he wasn't too great at the baseball. He looks hilarious!

HE IS OFFICIALLY HOME!!

Jason is finally home!

A day of resting

Well I have spent the entire day resting and with a huge headache.

Doc said I could go back to work as long as I am not having contractions and getting sick!

Jason is coming home tomorrow...I can't wait till he gets here! =)

Here are two pictures from the card shower the staff at school gave some of us.

Hospital Visit

Last night at dinner I had some contractions...six of them actually. I took the medicine they gave at my last doctor visit to stop contractions. Then two hours later I got really sick!!

Today I called the doctor to let them know and well they ended up wanting me to come to the hospital and get monitored. Mom picked me up at lunch and I was there till 6:30 tonight being monitored and given more meds to stop the contractions. They ended up letting me go home, but I am pretty exhausted.

Jason will be home in TWO days and we can't wait!

I want to say HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to my grandparents. They have been married for 58 years!

HE IS COMING HOME!!!

Finally the day we have been waiting for---Jason is coming home for good on the 21st. We can't wait to have him home and keep him here for good!

Love you baby!

Veteran's day Thanks

I am so very proud to be the wife of a veteran...a grand daughter to a veteran....a niece to a veteran...and to be friends with so many veterans.

My mom put together this for the veterans that are in our family and close friends.

Enjoy!

Update on US

Well it's been a little while since the last post.

Haley - She is tapping and ballet every Monday and is loving it! She is excited because in December we are going to go see the Lion King and Disney on Ice. She is loving school and learning so much. Her teacher told me today that she worked on numbers 11-14 today and knew them all! She is turning into ms. smarty pants.

Jason - Is waiting and doing a very good job! He gets an A+ for doing so well and being so patient. He is working at the stables with the horses in all his free time. He should be home very very soon! Waiting on one phone call and that is all.

Erika - went to the doctor today. Doc was a little mad b/c I haven't gained any weight since last visit. She said I need to gain 20 to 25 pounds by delivery and I have only gained 8 total. The good news is I am measuring at almost 28 weeks. I start going to doc every 2 weeks now till the last month. Yeah I am in the third trimester...Mr Caden will be here in 12 weeks or less!!

Conner Praire and Park

Yesterday we went to Conner Praire and to the Oaklandon Park. Haley had so much fun. She got to milk the cow and loved the playground. It was similar to the ones we go to in Illinois and Wisconsin. We watched the new Tinker Bell movie when we got home and played.

Today I plan on working on the house some more and taking down the hot pink and green border in the baby's room.

Haley is at daddy's!

Jason is working at the stables today!
