Pathetic!

So it's come to my attention that my blogging abilities are, well, pathetic! Not that you should be all the surprised. I'm not. I did in fact mention in my first post that I was terrible at this kind of stuff, so really, what did you expect?
Anyway, I'll do a recap of everything the has happened and is happening in our lives as of late, and when I figure out how to add pictures, I'll do it.
Dean is 2 and a half! Really?!, I have a 2 and a half year old? Where has the time gone? He's crazy, and totally loveable, and funny, and oh so friendly. Matt and I joke that he's going to be our little football player. He's tall and maybe a little chubby, so who knows. And talk about attitude! He's recently learned that he really has a voice, so he frequently yells and tells us no. We're working on the whole talking nice thing, and he usually does a good job. He also doesn't usually take crap from other kids taking his toys anymore. He used to be quite the pushover, giving in anytime some other kid whined or cried about something, but he's learned that he doesn't have to give up what he's been playing with.
The Deano had tons of life changes in February. I practically forced the poor kid to grow up over night. We took his bink away, potty trained him a week later, and moved him to a big boy bed about 2 weeks after that. He's no baby anymore, that's for sure. Actually, he's going to be a big brother pretty dang soon, so I guess it's good to get all of that stuff out of the way before the baby comes.
Baby... we're expecting a little girl on May 28th, and we couldn't be happier! One of each is so exciting! Plus, I so need a girl. Dean is all boy, so the idea of getting a little girl to dress up and make bows for is awesome! No idea on names yet... and she'll be here in less than 74 days. Not my fault though... Matt is the picky one here. If he would just agree with me, we'd be set! I'm pulling for Lilah, and I'm thinking I'll end up winning in the end, but who knows. Maybe cross your fingers for me? Thanks.

Since it seems to me like I've written a book, I think I'll take a break. I'll do a picture post when I figure out how. Anyone want to teach me how to do that?

Wow! When I saw on the side of my blog that your's had been updated my jaw dropped and I thought it must be a mistake. When I got over that initial shock, I was so excited to get to see an update of what been going on. I can't believe how old Dean is! Congrats on the girl!!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you for the name thing. Lance and I are just the opposite, we've had a girl name we both love for years and can never agree on a boys name...(Speaking of that make sure to check out my blog later this week) ;) love ya!

Whoo-hoo!!!!!

My 2 1/2 year old football player should be friends with your 2 1/2 year old football player. K?

To post a picture, when you're writing the post just click the little icon at the top that looks like a picture. Then browse through your files, select one, and click "upload." I believe blogger.com has tutorials if you need it. Good luck!
