What's better than 1 baby?

We are happy to announce that we are expecting another little bundle of love in early October! This was a surprise blessing, and we are thrilled to open our home and our hearts to a second baby Duvall! Our kiddos will be 15 months apart, and now that the shock has worn off, I am excited about the whirlwind that will be our lives for a while!

We are 9 weeks preg. ~ Baby is due Oct. 8th. ~

I will have to endure the entire PHX summer, very pregnant.

A little taste of Home!

On Sunday afternoon we decided to take advantage of the Rockies spring training and catch a game! It was 80 degrees and perfect! We sat in the lawn in the outfield and had fun basking in the sun, people watching, and eating Italian Ice (and I think there was a baseball game, too ;)! Salt River Field is a brand new facility that reminds me of a scaled down Coors Field...We're going to catch two more game in two weeks when MY PARENTS COME! So excited to go back!

Warrior Dash 2011

Jordan has signed up for the Warrior Dash in Florence, AZ on May 1st!!! This is a 3.4 mile race that takes you through 12 obstacles along the way including tunnels, sand, repelling, mud, hay pits, and fire to name a few...yes, fire. The best part is that at the end you get a tee-shirt, a medal, and a sweet Viking Helmet! Charlie and I are super excited to cheer Daddy on from the sidelines! GO JORDAN!

Thumbs up for today

I give today 2 thumbs up!

79 degrees...A park in our front yard...Grammie and Papa sent us a present...YC's Mongolian BBQ tonight for dinner...maybe a couple Girl Scout Cookies {Jordan's boss said it was actually written in his contract to order cookies from his daughters, so we had to}...
If this isn't bliss, I don't know what is.

Grandma's Been Here

{jammin' in her jammies on her hand-me-down piano}

{sometimes I still can't believe we have a kid}


You know Grandma's been here when:

*There are home-cooked meals every night when you get home

*The baby gets a bath every day

*The floors are mopped and/or vacuumed daily

*Laundry is done

*There's a new toy or two, or three

*The next trip to visit is booked before she leaves ;)

Thank you for coming to see us and for being so helpful while you're here! Can't wait until the next time! We love you!

My Valentine

This year I have some competition for my Valentine's heart, but lucky for me, she can't talk yet, to ask him to be her valentine, so he's all mine!

I spare y'all the super-gush, but I will say that I could ask for no better partner in marriage, no better daddy for my daughter, and no better friend for my life. I am so blessed by this man. Happy Valentine's Day!

Oh Charlie

Silly girl helping mama in the kitchen...

Who doesn't love a little nekked baby booty? {don't mind the spray paint on my hand}

We're hoping Charlie's yoga poses turn into crawling soon! Daddy has been trying to coax her into crawling daily.
