Christmas 2012

 It's a tradition at our house to make peanut butter balls around Christmas. MaKatie liked helping roll them out.  Bryant found a new syringe in the vet supplies to drizzle chocolate with. We roll with high tech kitchen gadgets around here. It was much faster than dipping each one and looks a lot fancier. 
 This year we had MaKatie make gifts for all the grandparents. She sure thought it was fun painting her hand print, so we could turn them into snowmen.  
 Bryant shot his cow elk on Christmas Eve morning. Sorry I didn't get a picture before it got gory. 
 MaKatie finally talked to Santa at the community Christmas Eve party. She asked for a present, a back-pack, and food. 
 Looking to see what Santa left in her socking.
Sorting gifts so we could open them. She had more than Bryant and I combined. It was a blast watching her this year. She really got it this year for the first time. What a blast!

 Helping make Christmas breakfast. We had strawberries and cool whip on waffles. She was also quality control while smashing those strawberries. 
We had a fantastic Christmas and hope you did too! 

Target Ultrasound of Baby #2

Wednesday we had our target ultrasound. It was so fun. No we didn't find out a gender by our choice. It left me wanting to meet this little guy or gal even more. The ultrasound tech did an awesome job. She showed us the baby's toes, fingers, legs, arms, face, etc. It was a nice surprise compared to what I was expecting based on MaKatie's ultrasound. Her's was all business. We took care of the business and got the fun extras. Our baby is perfect, the right size for gestational age, and should weigh about 1 pound 9 ounces right now. Here are some pictures. Hopefully they will turn out okay because I am taking a picture of the picture so I can post them.

Can find those cute little toes?
How about a hint... Look in the upper right corner.
Sorry the pictures are nothing compared to the actual video of it, but I don't know how to upload the video. You'll have to come visit us if you want to see it. I can't wait to meet this guy/gal for real now. It was almost as sweet to see him/her like this as it is to see them for the first time. Super excited!!! I'm so looking forward to April 30th(ish).
