a Big B-Day, a Suprise, a party, and a Super Fun Monday!!!!

End of last week and this weekend was so much fun!!!!  Christian turned 30 and we had lots of fun surprises and things planned for his big day :) 

It started Thursday...the kids and I decorated the house :)  That afternoon, Christian was having something put on his truck and we picked him up to bring him home.  Evan told him "Time for your party Daddy!"  I think Christian may have expected a suprise party!  The surprise came the next day!

After picking him up, we had to stop by the store to pick up a few things...Evan bought himself an icee!  Does Arizona have 7-Eleven?!  Yum!

 

Miss Ainsley lounging outside while we made dinner...I took this from the kitchen window!

And after we both BARELY slept with all the anticipation... the big day was here!

I told Christian he had to be ready by 9.  He then figured out someone was coming over, I had a ton of food...and of course making him be ready an hour and half before our ultrasound.  He was guessing like CRAZY!  Actually guesses his mom at one point but never either sister :) SO....when there was a tiny knock at the door and Miss Marley was standing there...HE WAS SHOCKED!!!!

We all ate breakfast, the kids played...then headed over to the appointment.

I was SOOOOOO nervous this time around.  And in the car it was weird...we were talking about how this will be our LAST ultrasound appointment!  We made our final guesses...Christian always thought it was a girl...and I constantly went back and forth!

Side Note:  On Tuesday at the doctor Evan really wanted to see his "baby brother" so the doctor did a quick ultrasound.  She did in between the legs and I saw the "lines" but, she said the legs were so close together, she didnt see anything and was hard to tell.  So, I just assumed I wasnt seeing right.  HAHA.  Now I know she didnt want to break it to Evan!  I told her yesterday when I saw her and she totally knew. :) 

Anyways, so in the ultrasound room, they freezed in between in legs and I shouted boy and everyone else said girl...I saw the cord.  I think it is now beginning to sink in that I am going to have two little girls!  Evan was so wanting a brother but took the news VERY well :)  Though does say his next sister is going to be the nice one.  OOHHHHH goodness!  I never had a sister and ALWAYS wanted one so, very excited that my girls will have eachother.

Here's her little profile view!

After the ultrasound, we went to a birthday lunch for Christian!!!  Thank you Bethany and Brett! 

Aunt Bethany getting some LOVE!

After the kids had a little nap, we headed up to Chandler to eat at Rudys!

My mom and Todd decorated the table and area so nice!

YUMMY cupcakes! 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY!!!!!

Somebody was a little wound up in the car on the way home!  Which was alot better than her normal screaming fit!

After our Saturday morning bagel shop run...Chris wanted to look at a few things at Target.  Ainsley found something too.  She always picks up these little baby dolls..well once I discovered some of them said Little Brother and Little Sister...I let her get one!  HAHA.  She was so excited! 

That afternoon we had a birthday party to go to at Peter Piper...

Ainsley and her buddy Bella...

Yep...she poses now...I LOVE IT!

And after that...checking out some golf stuff...

Not sure why he is wearing one shoe.

Ainsley thought it was for dancing!  HAHA!

Saturday we had a fun movie night :)  Then Sunday, MJ and my mom came down.

On Monday, we headed over to Brett's Aunt and Uncle's house to have some fun!  They live out in Tanque Verde, so Tucson area, but on the east side.

They had lots of fun things for everyone to do!

Evan LOVED swimming!  AND hadn't forgotten anything from last summer...was swimming all over the place!  WOOHOO!  I was nervous with my having a pool this summer he would not be as aquatic :)

Sweet girl...

Ainsley loved the grass!  Guess we need to put that on the list.  haha

And the kids had a blast on the trampoline!

Ainsley's little buddy!  I think she just enjoyed bossing it around!  "Sit Doggy" haha

The got some lobsters for dinner and I really wish I had a pic of the kids playing with them!!!!  My camera was inside!

"MINE!" She has to see the pics after I take them!  Since I had my small camera, I actually let her take a few.

And who doesn't love a movie room?!  It was staduim seating full of recliners.  The family has 5 teenagers and I am thinking this house must be the hang out place!!!  Asked Christian if our next house can have one of these!  LOL.

We had a fun day!  The kids played sooo hard and loved seeing their cousin Marley!  I can't believe I dont have more pictures!!!  But we were all just having such a great time visiting...I didn't really think about it much!  The kids didnt get to bed until 11pm and were exhausted all day yesterday!  Such a fun time!
