Hello again. I'll bring you all up to speed on things since my last post which was Sept 2009..
The rest of 2009:
October was Kolby's first real Halloween. He was a pirate and had a blast. The weather was beautiful and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Found out I was pregnant in October 2009. Ran my second half marathon of the year in October at the Avenue run. Really starting to enjoy running:)
Christmas family gathering was at Tammy's (Kevin's cousin) house that year. There were 3 of us pregnant. Ella, Tonya and myself. (Ella had a little girl in March, Tonya a boy in February and we had little Ryan in July). Rang in the new year with the Hendershots.
2010:
April was Kolby's second birthday. We had a Handy Manny themed party for him. One of his favorite cartoons. My belly was getting pretty big at that point and I still had 3 months to go.
Kevin sold his 2007 Kenworth dump truck and bought a 2000 Peterbilt. Got a really good deal on it and was able to pay off a little debt from the sell of the 07. He has put some time and money into the new one....but enjoys working on stuff so it wasn't too bad. Running like a champ now! Just need some jobs;)
July we were blessed with our second baby boy...Ryan. He was 8lbs 2.5oz and so so beautiful! It was an adjustment for all of us, especially Kolby. Things are much better now. I didn't have any idea how hard it was going to be with a newborn and a 2 year old. Thank goodness I have a wonderfully supportive husband who was there every step of the way.
August we went back to the Oregon Dunes with our four wheelers and friends. My mom and niece came to help with the kids so we could ride. They were a huge help, even though I never wanted to leave the baby.
In September I became an ACE (American Council on Exercise) Certified Group Fitness Instructor. Had to take a test that consisted of 150 multiple choice questions. It was tough.
For Halloween we had Batman and Superman in the house. Cutest superheros ever! Trick or treated in Redway with the Aquarian family.
Thanksgiving and Christmas were both spent out at the Goff's. Kevin came down with the flu on Christmas Eve and was in bed during our family gathering. He was missed:( Kolby was so into the holidays this year...Christmas morning was the best!
Rang in the new year with the Hendershots...again;)
