We have a new roof!

It is official...we have a new roof! We have spent our Memorial Day weekend re-roofing our house...with the help of WONDERFUL friends. A HUGE thank you to Aaron, Trish, Lane, Ben, Michelle, Peyton, Ben Ortmann, Lyle, and Becca (and of course my wonderful husband Josh)...everyone who played a role in getting this project done. It looks amazing - you wouldn't think a new roof could make your house look so different! Anyways, I believe you should be able to click on the link below and check out all the pics I took over the weekend. Let me know if it doesn't work... Have a great week - last week of school for me! :)

May 18th....

I am sitting in a hotel room in Dubuque, so thought I would pass the time by updating/posting some new stuff. :) Below are 2 pictures of my tummy - from 5/6 (almost 26 weeks) & 5/12 (almost 27 weeks).


Last weekend, we were in Omaha for Jen's graduation from pharmacy school and this weekend we were in Dubuque for a wedding...Josh's friend Tadd. He is in the army, and just returned from overseas a few weeks ago. Josh was a groomsmen in the wedding - here he is walking down the "aisle" (it was an outdoor wedding). Below that is a picture of Josh and I after the wedding ceremony.I have my 28 week appointment tomorrow morning...and I know I have to get a shot. I think Josh will skip out on that, since he about fainted when he had to get his blood drawn. :) Things are going well...besides I have developed HORRIBLE heartburn. And the more it happens, the more I think it is acid reflux or something like that...wakes me up in the middle of the night, and happens during the day as well - my throat feels like it is on fire. I am hoping my doctor can give me some advice tomorrow!

In other news...Josh and I are preparing to re-roof our house next weekend - OH BOY! Aaron Carlson is our "head man" - what a wonderful friend to help us do this. Also, Ben and his family will be coming up from Kansas...so we will have a fun, work-filled weekend! (I believe Trish volunteered to rip shingles off as well, so looks like I will just have to hold baby Lane.) :) We are praying for good weather, and can't wait to have this house project under our belts. :)

Only 2 more weeks of school for me - YIPEE!!!

A nice weekend...

No pictures of me this time...thought I would share the other members of the family. :) Here is Josh and Crimson relaxing on Saturday night, watching a little NBA playoff basketball. Below that is a pic of our "green thumb" project of the day...we planted a mini garden - 4 tomato plants and 2 pepper plants. :) We actually got a little sun - yipee!

In baby news, my belly button is slowly becoming shallower and shallower. I predict that I will soon have an outie. :) Josh is showing more interest in actually feeling the baby move, so that is fun...I think he is shocked by how much he can feel it (I tell him that I feel double that on the inside)!

Hope everyone has a nice week!
