2 months

Well Miss Elise is already 2 months old. She is doing fantastic & has already been sleeping through the night (except when we go up north on weekends). At her 2 month checkup she weighed 9 pounds 6 ounces & was 23 inches long. She is such a good little girl, we love her so much!

Elise Kathryn Ruzicka 6/29/09!!!!!

Elise Kathryn Ruzicka was born 6/29/09 and weighed 6lbs 7oz and was 18 1/4 inches. It was a very fast labor and besides having to wait for 45 minutes for the dr to get there so I could push, all went VERY well. The kids adore her & are always asking to hold her. Brandon is always kissing her & telling her "I love you, you are our little princess." It is so sweet! At her 2 week check up she weighed 6lbs 11 oz & was 20 1/2 inches!

It has been awhile...

So, ya it has been awhile since I have posted a blog. I am now 29 weeks pregnant & everything seems to be going good. We are getting excited to meet this new little person.

The kids are all doing good. Hannah is loving 1st grade & can now read like crazy! She has learned so much this year! She also started soccer last week & seems to be enjoying that too. She has finally lost 3 teeth & has 2 more loose, & I wouldn't be suprised if today when she comes home from school she has lost one of them.
Brandon has been growing like a weed. He is getting very excited for T-ball to start this summer & for pre-school in September. His pet hamster, Alvin, escaped from his cage this past weekend, so we have been searching for him, but it doesn't look like we are going to find him.

Peyton, well, he is our wild child, but I am told that everyone needs a kid like him. He really keeps me & everyone else on our toes. He has been having a really hard time teething, but we are finally starting to get some of those teeth to come through, but they are coming in all over the place & not in the "normal" order at all. He is starting to say a few words, which the older two think is so much fun!
This past weekend we went to the como zoo with my sister in law and her boyfriend, the kids had a blast. Peyton LOVED the monkies & would have stood there & watched them all day long.

14 1/2 weeks..

I am now 14 1/2 weeks. I can not belive how big my tummy is already! I am really trying to enjoy this pregnancy becausse I know it will be my last.

Christmas/New Years

We had a fun Christmas this year! The kids are so much fun to watch on Christmas morning, they are so excited! Although, I am not sure who was more excited, me or the kids. I was the 1st one up on Christmas morning & woke everyone else up! After opening presents Christmas morning we headed up to Blackduck to surprise my family who thought we were not going to be able to make it this year! Then after that we headed over to Justin's parents to spend a few days. It was so nice for Justin & I both to have a few days off at the same time & to be able to spend some time together.
For New years eve, I had to work, but it was worth it because I made pretty good money! Justin was going to let the older two kids stay up until midnight, but at 10:30 Brandon asked to go to bed because he was so tired! Hannah did stay up though & she & Justin played games until midnight. New years day we went to the MOA & the kids went on some rides at Nickelodeon Universe & I bought some maternity clothes, because I really need them already!

tagged...

So Jessica tagged me. Since I don't have any other friends or family that will blog, I have nobody to tag. So here is my picture...It is of the 2 boys playing around.

Happy Birthday Brandon!

Today was Brandon's 4th birthday. We went to Buffalo Wild Wings to eat, then came home & had cake & opened presents with the neighbors & my grandma. This year I decided it is way to expensive to keep buying cakes so I made Brandon his Spongebob cake all by myself! I am so very happy with how it turned out, especially since it is the 1st cake I have ever made!
