Officially..

a soccer mom. Jack started Lil' Kickers last Tuesday. It's quite humorous to watch 2-3 yr. olds attempt to do anything structured, so I'm glad that our coach doesn't expext much other than for the kids to have fun. They are learning the very basics and Jack's adorable in his uniform. I'll get some pics posted soon!
My parents recently bought some recreational property on Willow Creek, a popular King salmon fishing site as well as snow machining, 4 wheeling etc. They are having a family cabin built and it should be done by Thanksgiving so we're really excited for that! We'll have some place to go to make a whole weekend out of our winter sports instead of trying to squeeze everything into one day. I've been helping with the space planning and drawing everything up for the builder on AutoCAD so it's been fun to be involved! My mom is not much of a camper so the cabin will have a full kitchen, bath, etc. which is.. pretty much.. essential.
We took Tate to the doc, he is over 14 lbs. now and is in the 90-95% for everything. He's just adorable and gets cuter everyday!

Its funny the difference between having girls and boys. I am officially a "dance mom." I have been for about year now. It is fun to watch them try and do something "structured" when they are so little! I bet you are dying laughing watching all those kids going crazy all over the field! ha ha
I cannot believe Tate is so big! My kids are SO small so it is funny to have someone on the other side of the spectrum. Lauren only weighs 20lbs! Although, I think 10lbs of that has to be in her cheeks! She "just barely" got "back on" the percentile scale. Whitney fell off a while ago and has NEVER returned. She is a whopping 27lbs at age 4 and 1/2!! I'm SURE they got the "freakishly skinny" gene from their father!! :)

I loved the post on Palin. I love her and think she is great. Did you see the U-tube clip from Matt Damon. I think he is cute but seriously...........
With two boys you will be doing the soccer thing for a while. I can't believe he is that big. What a fun age.
Becky's belly is SO cute. She is tiny as usual. I am just glad I have never been pregnant at the same time.
That cabin sounds like so much fun. It is a great place to create memories to last a life time.
I LOVE your background and header! So festive:)

Wow, big milestones in your neck of the woods, huh? :) You must be doing something right with that little guy to be such a healthy weight. Gotta love 3 year old soccer players...such a hoot.
