Life....

Well.... I guess I have neglected this blog for at least 6 months. I am not sure anyone will even read this :)

So life has changed quite a bit. We have a new member added to our little family. Grace FaithAnne Guenther was born 12/22/11. She is now 2 and a half months old and time is flying! She is very sweet and a pretty laid back little lady. We all love her the pieces.

Elijah has taken well to his new rose as big brother. He loves Grace which is just amazing to see. He wants to hold her, burp her, put blankets on her etc. He is a busy little man these days. He is running around, talks up a storm he will pretty much repeat anything you say, and is becoming a little more independant. He currently loves to climb on anything that he can, play with any form of water, play outside even if he is freezing and look at books. (Especially Thomas the train).

Bryan business has grown over the last summer. He did an Angies List big deal which gave us a lot of business which was good. We are praying that all those people will come back this year. He won the "Angies List Super Service Award" from having excellent feedback and great service to his clients. I am proud of him :) So he has been home with us this winter which has been wonderful to all of us. I think he is getting ready to head out and start washing windows again pretty soon.

As for me... I am loving being a mommy of two. I am amazed how much my heart has grown in love for my family. I am sad that my maternity leave is over in two short weeks. It sure flew by.

Well there is us in a nutshell... I will try to post again in less that 6 months and maybe even some pictures :)

I am still here...

So, I clearly am not good at this blogging thing but I will try and give a quick update...

Elijah had surgery at the beginning of June to have his Adenoids taken out and tubes put into his ears due to all the ear infections (8) and constant fluid in his ears. He is doing well now and feels so much better, he isn't constantly sick like he was before.

Bryan is working like crazy with his company Reflection's Window Washing, the Lord has blessed him with lots of work this summer so far so we are very thankful for it.

Bryan took me on a date up to Stillwater last weekend, it was beautiful and nice to have an evening together!

Elijah is full out crawling, pulling himself up and getting into everything! He is climbing the stairs which is scary so I need to install a gate rather than just have a chair pushed up against the bottom of the stairs. He can say probably about 25 words, he is a little chatter box. His newest are "Bible" and "Neigh Neigh" for horse.

For me I am 19 weeks pregnant now and we are having our ultrasound on Tuesday and we will find out what we are having if able. I am feeling better but still taking my anti-nausia meds every few days now.

Well, that's all I can think of for now, I will try and post some pics because those are more exciting anyway.

New Pics

So my little man just turned 1 last week!! Crazy where the time goes. Here are a few new pics, also Elijah is going to be a big brother around Christmas!!

Elijah helping Daddy out

Working hard!

Elijah LOVES to swing at the park, sometimes he even cries when we leave because he wants to just keep swinging!

A new Family pic from Caleb and Abby's wedding 2 weeks ago

Some New Pics of my Little Man....

So clearly I am bad at this whole blogging thing as I never post anything..... Anyhow here are some new pics of what we have been up to!

This was at Easter, we went up to Bryan's Sister's house and spent part of the day up there after Church. I think Elijah had fun playing with his big cousins!

He likes to be pulled around in anything, it is very sweet :)

Elijah sorta crawls... well in his own way it more looks like he is doing the "worm" but he gets around where he needs to go!

Elijah LOVES when Daddy pushes him around in trucks, he could do it all day!

My two favorite Guys!!

Elijah went out on the swing for the first time. Of course he couldn't do it by himself and I dont know what he thought about it...

Trying on his new Easter outfit that Grandma Tracy bought him when we went shopping. I think he knew he looked pretty cute!

We had this old box sitting around for awhile and I was going to throw it but I thought it would be fun to make him a "car". Well... it sorta looked like a car, I am not a very talented car maker but Elijah had fun being pushed around in it anyhow.

My little man on his truck! He loves to sit on it and always smiles big. Clearly he is too big for it so I am on the hunt for a bigger truck for him to ride in.

So that is about all... He just turned 11 months and I am starting to plan his big first birthday which is fun. I will try and post more pictures soon again!

A little warm weather fun!

It was beautiful outside today so we had to get out for a little fresh air!

Some new Pics!

So I guess I am not a very good blogger since I never update this thing!! Here are some pics of Elijah, he is a busy little boy these days. He is 8 1/2 months old now! He is rolling, and babbling and loves to eat solid foods!! And of course a very smiley little guy :)

I took this one last night, it is funny how things that are not "toys" are better than his actual toys!

This was about 2 weeks ago while I was cleaning his room and putting his diapers away. Again more fun with the non toys!

These two we did for Bryan's birthday. If you don't know Bryan is part of a ministry called Sermon Jams. (www.1031sermonjams.com) so we took these photos and made him a coffee mug with some of these pics on it. He loved it!

This one was about 3 months ago at the Children's Museum with MOMS.

Helping Mom with Laundry

I have this wonderful little helper with the laundry! All I have to do is dump out all the cloths and he will sit and play with them and of course they go right into his mouth while I fold.
