UGH...

So stressed out today. 
Messy house, thanks to my 2 year old who decided not to take a nap today
the inability to eat just about anything (thanks to baby girl),
constantly feeling sick
finances...I hate when Jons work is slow :/

man I can't wait for today to be over with!

Sorry for venting. I just felt the need to get this off my chest. And if this really is going to be a journal of sorts I can't always only write about the good things in life right?


Oh and I don't want to forget...thanks hubby for taking Taegs with you to the store to give me a little bit of a break. I love you!!! MUAH

We finally know...

IT'S A GIRL!!!

We couldn't be more excited! 
Deep down I know I wanted a girl, but was afraid to admit it in fear it would jinx it. haha silly I know. I would have been happy with another boy, but I'm ecstatic that it's a girl. She had all her organs and everything looked good. 
We really are so happy. 
Jon has said from the beginning that it's a girl, turns out he was right. I was a little skeptical because I had 2 dreams that it was a boy. But before we even got pregnant we both had a feeling we would have a girl our next baby. I guess our inspiration was right :) I knew I never should have doubted it. 
Now on to the name game...UGH. Before I had kids I thought this would be so much fun. Now it's my least favorite part. We are both so picky that its hard for us to agree. Hopefully we'll come up with a few options before she's born.

Evertsen family pics 2012

We went and took a few family pictures yesterday. Taegen was being his normal self and wouldn't cooperate. He was having too much fun running around and playing with all the rocks/water. The pics are totally random, but this first one is my favorite. He was trying so hard to get away from grandma he almost looks evil. haha. Gotta love this little boy. 
Oh and keep in mind that I'm almost 5 months pregnant. I don't think I'm past the "just looking fat" stage, thats why I feel I must remind everyone :)

Easter 2012

This year we had 3 Easter celebrations. We had our own easter egg hunt, had one with the Evertsens the sunday before easter and had another one with my family.

Here's T wearing his bow tie aunt Lexy made him. He didn't want to wear any other clothes, so he looked like a little male stripper. It was pretty funny.

 Easter sunday clothes :) Isn't he just so handsome!!!
 All the Evertsen grandkids waiting to go outside to start the hunt.
 Jon helped Taegs find the eggs and toys. he actually did really well. It took a sec for him to figure it out, but he eventually got it down and got a pretty good collection.







 This is the egg Jon painted...
Jon and...
 Baby Girl! 
He obviously thinks we're having a girl this time. :)
 We went to the Easter car show. Jon was completely enjoying himself and was tagging Taegs along with him every where, showing him all the cool cars.
 These are pics from our own hunt we had in our back yard.
I thought he'd do really well since he'd already done it once. But this time he realized there was candy in them really fast, so all he wanted to do was open them up immediately after picking them up. Skip the basket all together.


 Shaking the egg to hear the candy

 These are pics from the hunt with the Lindhardt side of the family.




 Taegen found one and is opening it up in the backround to get the candy. haha. little cheater. :)
 papa and nana helping the grandkids search for eggs. All the adults eventually had to pitch in because there were 2 eggs no one could find. 
 Opening the candy he found in the egg. 
 papa trying to get Taegen to get the egg that was in the bush.
 Running to put the egg back in the basket.
 Taegen patiently waiting to hit the pinata 
 my dad explaining the rules.
 all the kids got a turn.
 Hudsens face is awesome!
 Daddy and Taegs watching everyone hit the pinata
 Hannas turn
 Emma was the one to finally crack it open. It was probably this wack that broke it open. Her face says it all.
 Jon showing Taeg how to hit it. He did better once it was on the floor and he could actually reach it to whack it. 

 VICTORY!
