My Little Leprechauns




February 2016

These two have been into their exercising, and even had to dress the part one night.

 February 14th, 28 weeks and counting...

Greta helped make robot valentines to bring to her friends at school and for Gabriel to bring to daycare.

 We spent Valentine's Day at our annual water park trip to Brainerd.  Even Gabriel loved the water this year, and wasn't ready to go.

 Out for a Valentine's dinner at Grizzly's.

Greta celebrating the 100th day of school dressed as though she's 100 years old!

 Our baby had a renal sinus separation/renal pyelectasis, which was noted at our 24 week ultrasound, so we had a follow-up 6 weeks later at 30 weeks.  Everything looked great at that appointment, and we got to see our little one an extra time.  Look at those chubby cheeks!

 31 weeks!

Daddy Daughter Dance


 My two loves had their first Daddy Daughter Dance, and both looked fabulous!  The night included dancing with her Daddy and friends, a grand march, snacks, and a trip to DQ afterwards.  I think it was quite a late night!

Oh Baby!


16 weeks

20 weeks

24 weeks

We are very blessed we will soon be a family of five with our newest addition expected to arrive the beginning of May!

Christmas

Christmas was spent celebrating with the Gillespie clan at Holly and Jason's new house, opening presents at our house, and a gathering at Oma and Opa's place.  We sure are blessed to have such wonderful families!

The cousins had so much fun playing together.

Christmas story time with Santa at the library.

Greta noticed I didn't have many presents under the tree, so she made me this beautiful quilt.  She said she had to make it out of paper, because she didn't have anything soft.  How sweet!







My newest Godchild, Francis!  The kids were so excited to meet their new cousin for the first time.  He's such a sweet boy!

Fire Station

Gabriel has been going to school (ECFE) on Monday nights.  This was their trip to the fire station.  At first he wasn't too sure about all the big trucks, but he couldn't resist a chance to try to give that big truck a push.


Halloween

It was another fun Halloween with art projects, pumpkin carving, Halloween parties, and treat-or-treating.  Greta was a baterina and Gabriel a dinosaur this year.  They both loved their costumes, and luckily had a few events to wear them to.
