Omaha Zoo







Well we survived Skyler's first visit to the Omaha Zoo. He seemed to enjoy every part of it except he fell asleep at 1:30 which was just in time to miss the Aquarium, Penguins, and rainforest. He loved the train ride and the monkeys.

His vocabulary keeps increasing all the time and he is attitude is starting to show now of course it is all cute yet!! Hope everyone is doing well.

First Camping trip!!






Well we survived our first camping trip and Skyler had a blast!!! Of course it never fails on Memorial Day Weekend to rain but we just got a little rain overnight on Friday and some rain late Saturday morning and then it cleared up to be a great weekend!!! We camped with some friends and their little boy and Skyler really enjoyed the friend to play with. Here are some pictures of our event. Oh yeah it was also Sky's first time fishing and he had fun for about 2 minutes and then lost interest so Lane and him played in the water instead.

Next weekend we are off to the zoo in Omaha so we will have more pictures then. Otherwise the pregnancy is going really well and there are only 3 months left!!!

Sky's 2nd Birthday!!


Skyler wanted to shave like dad so Nick helped him with that but with a spoon.






Once again it has been awhile since I have updated everyone on what is going on with us. We couldn't have had a nicer day for Skyler's 2nd birthday!! We spent the afternoon out on the deck enjoying the 70 degree weather and we even set up our new tent we got. Skyler had so much fun with everyone there and all his new gifts. Sarah and Dustin spent the weekend with us and Grandpa Shaffer and Great Grandpa Shaffer came out for cake and ice cream along with Grandpa & Grandma Pyle and Brent.

Skyler knew how to blow out his candles and got them both whipped in 2 blows. We did not even have to do a practice run although I thought we should have (little did I know he was a pro). Of course he is not a fan of cake so he had some oreo's for his cake. Thanks to everyone who could make Skyler's day special with your cards and presence. He loved Great Grandma's card with the train on it. Skyler thought the train looked like the Polar Express.

Other than that Nick has been keeping super busy with doing extra work on the side and I have been busy with Skyler. We keep busy for the most part and enjoy the weekends together. We have gotten into a card club with our friends and it is so much fun to get together as most of them have kids as well so it gives us all an excuse to get out of the house!!!

Colds all around

Well is has been an interested start to our week so far. Skyler came down with a fever on Sunday and had it until yesterday. The doctor said he just had a viral infection and he should be over it soon. He was definitely back to his old self last night and finally slept all night last night!!! I on the other hand have been battling a cold since Friday and when you are limited to what you can take while your pregnant makes it fun. For the most part I am just congested so it could be worse.

Nick is working at his new job well and it is not his favorite place. Right now he is helping the company do catch up work and he hates it. Hopefully it will get better for him as it is not challenging and he likes a challenge in a job. Overall though we are doing well and it looks like we are in for some warmer weather this week. I hope everyone is doing well!!!
