Canadian Gold!!!

Thank goodness for Canadian Gold because we have a HAPPY HOUSEHOLD!! Hooray!
Julie and the boys watching the end of the hockey game.. it's not very often I get BOTH boys on my lap when Chester is just on the next couch!! I love my boys.

As soon as the winning goal was scored Chester was on the phone with a brother... had to talk to someone who shared his passion immediately!

Mads was super excited to wear his hockey shirt just like his dad!! Rulon was a little bummed that we could not find his in the last 5 min of the game...

A smooch for the hero of the game, we love you Sidney Crosby.

BIG Full Belly!

I'm not talking about my big full pregnant belly folks... Check this out!! We ate some delicious dinner and Rulon and I were astonished to see Chester's full belly, brace yourselves.

Skiing at Sundance

Rulon came home with the biggest smile on his face!!! He and Chester spent the afternoon at Sundance skiing and Rulon told me he was really "bookin it" today! He said he didn't even tumble (fall) much either. Here's a few clips from Chester's perspective...


Mads and I stayed home and had some much needed resting time. He was practically asleep at the table when we had lunch and I was glad because I did not really want to venture out to Sundance today :) I'm either wimpy or pregnant, you decide.

Sleeping and Peeing.

Boys will be boys! This is what I found when I got up this morning after Chester let me have a much needed sleep-in. So cute!! Chester is no dummy, he finds a way to relax while taking care of the boys. Are they in training? You know, boys chillin on the couch watching tv turn into men on the couch watching tv?? Am I worried. Nope, cuz I was sleeping!!!

And then there is this shot. Uh take that whichever way you want. He is hilarious because he holds his bum with one hand and his business with the other. Why? Because when we were teaching him about aiming we always had our hand on his bum to lean him forward enough to hit the toilet and not his toes... so clearly that is how it's done!! Love it.

Transformation!!

A great transformation has to start with love right?? Well, I love my Chester and that he is the father of our beautiful children!! This was my Valentines Day sentiment to my Chesty!! Love you the best forever babe!!

This also marked the beginning of changing the green boys "nursery" into a not green girls "nursery". We do not intend to paint this room ever again if it can be avoided, so we went with a warm neutral color that Rulon thinks is "NOT A GIRL COLOR" because it is too close to white I guess. We actually had to prime it twice to block out the green, that was fun. Then paint it twice with the real paint to get a nice coat of color (or non-color according to Rulon).
Hmmm, whose big hand was on my belly???

I painted ALLLLLL day long, thanks to Chester being Mr. Mom with the boys.

Ok, so lets all remember the room BEFORE:

And here is the room AFTER: the pics will change once there is a new baby to take pics of, duh.

Does anyone realize how happy this makes me?!?!?!? Anyone, really? And by the way, you are looking at Linz and Ethan's baby gift to us... the room decor!! The bedding, curtains, lamp!!!!!!! Could I be any happier??? I walk in the room just to look at it several times a day now instead of keeping the door closed to avoid the reminder of work to be done.

Mads having a little fun!

Mads was using a balloon as a punching bag and it was so cute, of course once I got my camera he was not making all the crazy faces and noises that were cracking me up, but it's still cute!!

He told me he was "teaching the balloon a lesson."
