Baby #2:)

We are so excited to announce that baby #2 will be arriving May 20, 2010! I had an ultrasound today and saw the little heartbeat! I am only 6 weeks but we are so excited and just can't hold it in any longer. Garrison will be such a cute big brother. We told him today, but he has absolutely no clue what we're talking about! He will once mommy starts getting a big belly:)

Friends wedding

Some friends of ours got married last weekend and it was a beautiful wedding. It was held at Hudson Gardens and it was absolutely gorgeous. My parents came as well and we had a great time. It was such a fun day and the reception was an absolute blast. Garrison was a huge hit as always. He was dancing on the dance floor and just being so adorable. I just love our little boy so much!!

Zoo Trip

A couple of weeks ago my sister in law and I went to the zoo with the kids. It was was fun but I have never seen so many strollers in all my life. I loved everything except the BEE'S. Oh my gosh, I hate bee's. I have a huge fear of them and I have never been stung so I don't know why I'm so afraid but I am. I run like a baby and do a crazy dance and look like a total moron. I can't seem to sand still. I HATE IT! Anyway, there were tons of bee's and I couldn't wait to get away from them. The little boy sitting next to Garrison in the stroller is Gavin who I take care of everyday. Garrison and Gavin are like brothers. They have so much fun together.

B & B!!!

Jared's birthday was on June 19th and originally for his birthday I got us a night away at a Bed & Breakfast in Colorado Springs. Well, as many of you know... he was in the hospital from June 15 - June 18! Needless to say he was in no condition to be going away for the weekend. I called the B & B and rescheduled it for the first weekend in August which also turned out to be our Anniversary. YEAH!!! It worked out perfectly. On Friday afternoon we headed down to the Springs and checked in at the B & B. After that we went to dinner at Red Hot & Blue. SO YUMMY!!! When we got back to our room we watched our engagement video as well as our Wedding Reception. It was so much fun to look back at all the good times. We absolutely loved the B & B, it was just what we needed. You will see in the pictures that it was an Old Victorian house from 1902. On Saturday morning we received the "Romantic breakfast in bed". What a delicious treat this was. We couldn't have imagined a better breakfast:)

After getting ready for the day we decided to head to the mall and look around. Ummm.... it was the most pitiful thing we had ever seen. Ya, it was sad. Anyway, on the way to the mall we stumbled across the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial. It was AMAZING!!! What a touching experience it was. Jared was in his element. I read a poem that was posted on one of the granite walls and I was in tears. So touching. After all was said and done we went home earlier that day than planned because we missed our little Garrison!

Rocky Mountain National Park

Last Saturday we decided to go to the mountains and we agreed on Rocky Mountain National Park. It was BEAUTIFUL. I wouldn't recommend going in August on a weekend though. Here is why... it is peak season and there are THOUSANDS of people there!!! There was nowhere to park and it was so crowded we ended up driving around for a couple of hours. We were able to get some pictures though. Garrison loved being outside once we got there. He wasn't too fond of being in the car for so long but he was a champ. We packed our lunches and loved being there and just enjoying time together as a family.

2 years ago today!

I can't believe 2 years ago today we got married. Happy Anniversary Honey! I love you. It was such a great day and I can't believe how fast time has gone. We have so many memories together already and I think we might just have to watch our wedding video today... corny I know but it's a must! It's fun to look back at what a fun and blessed day it was.

Garrison's 1st birthday

I can't believe it's been a month since Garrison turned 1 and I'm just now posting the pics from his birthday, but they are worth the wait. He was so adorable digging into his yellow birthday cake. At first he didn't know what to think of it but then he got into it and there was cake in his hair, all over his face/hands and his chest. As far as opening the presents... he did ok. He wasn't too sure what to do, he would get fascinated with one toy and not care about opening the next one. He has the best personality and is always so happy. It was great fun celebrating with our family... Garrison has got to be the cutest baby EVER!
