What I am going to be....

Today we are going trick or treating on this cold and blustry fall day! I am going to be a dinasaur which had won the vote! I am also going to be a big brother! That is right my mommy and daddy are expecting! Yeah!!! They told the Krapfls last night after a 2nd test confirmed the results the first one was taken Friday night and came back postitive but to confirm it we took another one. So time to spread the news. I know it is early but I am just excited to tell. I am also a little scared this is big, having a little one to run after, work and household stuff and dealing with all day morning sickness already! Yucky!! I don't enjoy that already. That is what prompted the tests just feeling icky and tired. So today after trick or treating we are going to tell Grandma and grandpa Zastrow and auntie Jen. I hope they will be happy for us. We cried last night and laughed and hugged just saying it out loud and to family makes this all real. I woke up this morning thinking it is all a dream but it is not we are really having another little miracle and that is great! So anyhow yesterday was Kamryns first birthday and what fun that was. She was just soooo cute!!! The cake looked awesome nice job Jen and Ken! So we let them have the celebration and just focus on Kamryn and that was nice now today we will share the good news. So that is all for now Kaden is napping and I am going to lay down for a bit before we need to go. Have a great day!!1

A DUCK OR A DINOSAUR?

Please vote we can not decide!!! Sunday is trick or treat!! Hurry!!! Thanks

Smile for the camera

So the big day is over and all went well. We had our family pictures as I am sure you all know by now and are sick of hearing about but they turned out really nice! I added some to show off. Kaden did well we had to work at getting him to smile he was Mr. Serious that day so it took some work to get a smile. So now I can't wait to get them developed and on the wall! So that was nice to spend time with Jen and Kam also! We then went out to eat and came home Kaden was well over due for his nap. He slept for almost the whole ride home. Monday Bill took off work incase we were going to be late coming home Sunday and so I got the day off from being "mommy" and got to go to fdl by myself and get the oil changed on the jeep and then grocery shopping! The simple things in life!! :) So then I worked Monday night and today I work as well we are getting a robot in the pharmacy today and I can't wait to see what that is all about it sounds pretty cool!! So that is all Kaden is up from nap ALREADY! So I better go. Bye for now enjoy the pictures as much as I am!!!

What a Punkin

Today we carved Kadens pumpkin! What fun this year Kaden is big enough to help this year and help he did. He lost interest after a little while but had a blast for the little while he cared. So we have before and after maybe not in correct order sorry. And tomorrow is the big day our first ever family picture!!! I can't wait I hope all goes well. I can't wait to see Jen and Kamryn as well it is always fun hanging out with her. Also we are going to walmart Jen called and I guess they have white sweat pants in Appleton I sure hope so!!!! So now we are just relaxing after supper left over chilli that Kaden still thought was great 2 &1/2 bowls tonight! Hungry after all the pumpkin carving. So we have had a really nice weekend as a family thus far and it is not over yet we have Sunday and Bill is taking off Monday as well. Great!!!! Well better go have a great rest of the night.

A day with family

What a fun day we had. Today we went to the Maddison zoo for our Anniversary. More for Kaden but just family time as well. It was a very nice zoo! Big enough for Kaden to enjoy. We packed a picnic lunch and ate at the park area and by the time it was time to go Kaden had enough and was tired. Oh one more thing about the zoo as if anybody really wants to know Bill saw 2 lions doing the "well you know" he thought that was the best part of the zoo. Crazy I know but he is my husband and I love him. So anyhow Kaden was asleep before we were out of Madison and woke up when we got to Beaver Dam for a potty break and so I decided to go to Waldenvogels and let Kaden go see the petting zoo since the zoo in Madison the petting zoo there was closed for the season. Well that is fine he liked it and silly me decided to go down a slide with a gunny sack and Kaden LOVED it!! I took him down 2 times and after that he went down all by himself Bill tryed going down with him and Kaden pushed him off he wanted to go by himself. The look on his face on the way down was priceless. We tryed to get a picutre but he comes down so fast and we had to catch him at the end and our lovely camera is slower than slow so we never got a picture of it. (Santa PLEASE bring me a new camera for Christmas PLEAAAASSEEEE!!!) So then we had to leave and well Kaden wanted NOTHING to do with that and kicked and screamed but we got home and shortly after that off to Grandma and Grandpas but no tractor ride this time is was raining :( So anyhow Bill and I went out for our anniversary by ourselves to a nice resturant Backyard grill in Fond du lac YUMMMYY!! Very good food. And then went bumming in the mall got Bills haircut for Sundays family pictures and got Kamryn her birthday present ( my little peanut is going to be 1 already :( So that is sad and finally we tryed to find Kaden his Halloween outfit with no luck so the search in on for a pair of white sweatpants!! Help someone please!!! So now Kaden is sleeping and I will be as well soon. So goodnight to all!!1

Love of a lifetime

Today I married my best friend, the one I laugh with, cry with and dream with. We have now been married for 3 years. And have made it over some bumps in the road but it is great to know our marriage is strong enough to handle whatever comes our way! So tonight I work and we will celebrate our anniversary this Friday with Kaden we are going to the Madison zoo and then come home and drop Kaden off by my parents and then Bill and I are going to FDL and do some shopping for Kadens halloween costume material and go to a nice place for dinner not sure where yet. Any suggestions? hmmmm! So there will be pictures coming from Friday and Saturday we are going to carve Kadens GIANT pumpkin again this year from Grandpa Zastrow! Kaden is old enough to help or make a bigger mess whatever the case it will be fun! So good night for now till we meet again!!

rough housing

So not much has been going on this week all that exciting. Maddison our niece is back in the hospital with shingles and a bacterial infection. Poor thing. Anyhow we celebrated Bills b-day last night up by his parents and I made the cake he requested a yellow cake with chocolate frosting. So that was nice. And the adults are sitting around the table just talking as normal and Abbygail and Owen are goofing a round and tackling each other and Kaden being the boy he is gets in on all the action and tackles and piles on top of them. He thought that was pretty cool and he laughed an giggled. He was running high on sugar and junk from Granmda and Grandpa so needless to say he was NOT in bed early last night and was up early also! UGH!!!! So he is napping now. This weekend I am wathing my parents dog and rabbit feeding them and playing with them. "Brunno" the dog has a hair cut tonight and then I have to wait fot the Swans man to come to their house for ice cream drop off. Saturday night a bunch of girls from the pharmacy are getting together and we are having game night. Everybody brings their favorite board game or whatever they want to play and a dish to pass and then we will play games and eat ALOT!!!! I am looking forward to that. And Sunday nothing much going on my parents want Kaden to come over and go for a tractor ride with Granmpa so we will probally go over there it is suppose to be a wonderful weekend to be outside!!! Well that is all for now take care and have a great weekend!!!

parade

It has been a pretty nice weekend. Saturday I worked so Kaden had bonding time with daddy which is always good! And they watched a house burn down outside of Leroy a controlled fire of a vacnat house. And then today I went to church with my mom and Kaden would NOT get up so I left him sleep. Bill is sick with what we had last weekend so Grandma and I and Kaden went to the Audubon parade in Mayville which Kaden LOVED!!! He was sooo excited he did not know what to do. So many tractors and horses and school bands playing music he danced. He had a great time and we had a good time watching him! Then we went up to the park to see the petting zoo but they did not have it today and so we ate lunch up there and Kaden was so tired he could not eat and fell asleep in his stroller. It was raining pretty hard so we just went home after that. So that was our weekend now I just put Kaden down for a nap he was really crabby so I will let him sleep for a 1/2 hour or so and get him up before he is up till midnight. So that is all in Leroy. Have a great night. The Brewers lost and so did the Packers. Oh well there is always next year for the Brewers and a long season yet for the Packers. Good night!

one of those days

Well it has been awhile again and I am sorry. Kaden and I were both sick Sunday night and Monday. So that got us in the dumps. But we are both feeling better now and so that is good. Today Jaime gave us her kids play tent and so I set it up in the living room and Kaden LOVES it!!! Thank you aunt Jaime!!! We sat in there for some time this afternoon and Kaden just laughed and laughed it was fun! So now getting back to this past weekend. What a great weekend we had. Jen and Kamryn came down and spent the day here with us Saturday and spent the night Saturday night as well!!! How fun I really enjoyed being able to spend soo much time with Kamryn she is just a joy to watch. Kaden loved his playmate as well they both kept each other entertained all weekend. And then Saturday afternoon at the kids nap time Jaime and Jen and I watched Sex and the City!! I laughed just as hard as I did the first time and cryed at all the same parts as silly as that is just a good movie!!! I will rent it out if anyone wants to watch it!!! :) Then Sunday we went to the craft fair in Horicon nothing great I did find a few things but I thought it would be bigger. And after that we went to Beaver Dam to look for our family outfits for our coming up family pictures and we were lucky enough to find everyone their outfits and it is goig to look so nice I can't wait!!!! And after that well I got sick I did not feel all that great in the afternoon already but that has been going around it is short lived thank goodness!! Yucky!!! So here are some pictures of the weekend and Kaden in his new tent!! Till next time good bye!
