Our Casa

Here are some pictures of our apartment. The first one is our master bedroom. It also has a master bathroom with his and her sinks and is pretty big. The second picture is our kitchen and as you can tell, I love the color red. We spend many hours making food in this kitchen, Travis can actually cook so that is a bonus. All his friends make fun of him for being able to cook, but I love it! The last picture is our living room and our couch. This is where Travis spends most of his days off. If you look really hard, you can see a tired Parker on the couch.

Tummy!

So here is the dreaded tummy picture everyone wanted to see. I have a few stretch marks, but I haven't got any new ones so that makes me happy. Every night Travis helps me put on lotion, well when I convince to help he does. I am now 32 and a half weeks pregnant and I feel I am running out of room. She moves so much, I do not think she sleeps much. Travis bonds with his daughter when we are laying in bed, last night he said he felt her hand touch his. Who knows, but I believe she knows how much she is already loved.

Pooped Out Parker

I took Parker down to the creek this afternoon that is behind our apartment building. Travis and I took him yesterday and he had a lot of fun. He wasn't sure what to do with the water, but he played around in the sand. Today he was brave, he walked into the water all the way up to his neck. He had tons of fun and I finally had to drag him out of the water. After his bath, he layed in the sun with his toy and fell asleep. He is so tired. If it is nice tomorrow, maybe he can go back and actually swim this time.

HOCKEY!

HOCKEY season is about to start and of course you know Travis loves the sport. We heard on a local radio station that the local pro hockey team was starting its' training camp. The radio station was having a free skate and a meet and greet. We woke up at 5am Friday morning and braved rush hour traffic into Washington DC. Travis ended up skating for about ten minutes then was in too much pain and had to quit. It was very neat to watch professional hockey players on the ice that close up. We even met a Silvertips' fan there, straight from Everett. That was really weird. Well that was the start of our hockey season, there is going to be many more hockey experiences this season.

Sports Nuts

In the last few months we have tried to have fun doing whatever we could, we are both weird so it was easy to do. In August we went to a Baltimore Orioles game, it was very fun, but over one hundred degrees! That night the Orioles beat the Boston Red Sox, it was a great game to go to.

Baby Practice

Today we went to the hospital to see our friend Lara and her new baby, Haylie. It was a very neat experience for us and gave us some practice with a newborn. I can't believe something so little and amazing could fit inside a belly. We are very excited to meet our baby soon, until then we can have practice with the Lott's baby.

My Amazing Husband

This is the man I fell in love with, even when he looks like this!

Our Two Boys

Pumo and Parker love eachother, I do not know what we would do without them. Well, I think we would get more rest, but we love them. They keep us very busy. We are going to have a full house soon.

The Nursery

McKenna's room is complete and all set up, the only thing missing is her! Only eight more weeks to go, but maybe sooner! It is hard to believe that we are going to be parents soon. We are a little nervous, well I am the only one to admit it. Travis is still remaining strong, but I know once he sees his daughter for the first time, he will become a softie! It is going to be difficult at first for Pumo and Parker because they will not get as much attention. But I know they will be perfect older brothers and protect her. They love kids!

Is it fall yet?

Well we are starting to wonder if Virginia is going to have a fall. It has been too warm for us, we haven't seen the rain is a month or so.

We are finally settling down, and getting ready for the arrival of our daughter. We made our last trip up to Baltimore this last weekend, and had a blast. But our plans for the next few months are to stay at home and relax. And gets things ready. The nursery is finished and everything is set up and ready for baby McKenna. She is spoiled already!
