Spring Break

As I am sure you know by now we LOVE Carpinteria Beach.  We go all the time and this year my mom got a spot during Spring Break so we decided to go up and have some fun with everyone.  There were lots of families there that we knew so it was super fun for the kids to play with everyone.  My sister’s kids were there with Grandma so Reid was in heaven playing with his cousins. 

Since Reid is getting older we decided to stay a little longer then we usually do.  We usually only stay one night but I decided to bump it to two nights and three days.  I just got into my 2nd trimester so I was feeling lots better too.  He did great and even took his nap everyday without any complaint.  We had such great weather and I was so glad we were able to go.  He had so much fun and was laughing and running around the whole time.  Wes got to come up the day we were leaving so it was extra fun to have him up there for the day. 

He loved playing at the beach and riding his bike in the campsite.  He had such a blast but by the last day he was worn out. He was a little whiney and so I was glad Wes was there to take over for me cause I was a little whiney too! We had the best time and I can’t wait for summer!

My mom got him his own mummy bag and I was shocked when he wanted to actually sleep in it.  He slept in it great both nights without any problems. I think he looks like a little glow worm in it.

He was so tired when we left that he refused to take off his helmet in the car so we let him keep it on.  About 30 seconds after we drove off he fell asleep and looked like a bobble head.

Big Changes

We are going through some big changes this coming year and we are excited and nervous for all of them.  First, we are expecting our second baby at the beginning of October!  It was a huge surprise and we are so excited to add a new member to our family.  Reid is excited as well even though I don’t think that he really understands what is happening.  When you ask him where the baby is he will point to my stomach and try to lift up my shirt to see the baby.  He also loves to give the baby kisses which is just the cutest.  I know he is going to love being a big brother and they will be great friends.  Reid is definitely not an only child type of kid and he will love having a sibling.  I can’t wait to find out what I am having.  I was 100% sure Reid was going to be a boy but with this baby I’m not so sure of what they are going to be so we are excited for that surprise.

If having a new baby isn’t enough we are also trying to buy a house.  That is always super stressful and hard but throw in a cranky, sick wife and a almost two year old and it will bring any grown man to tears!  It has been a bit stressful but Wes has been amazing at dealing with it all while I try not to move around too much.  Hoping everything works out the way that we want it to and that everything falls into place so we can move into a bigger house.  We are outgrowing our condo with just three of us in it and I can't imagine having to add another person to the mix.  So many changes going on in our lives right now but we couldn’t be more thrilled for everything to happen!
