Where in the World

I cannot find the battery charger for the camera to save my life! I looked high and low before we left for Seaworld/Disneyworld and never found it. That's why we have 5 pictures from our first visit there! Anyway, I thought I would have found it by now but that isn't working out like I had planned. I will swing by Wolf camera store later today and get a new one. I promise to get new picutres up of the boys after we get back from Colorado. We are leaving in two days and will be back July 7th. I probably won't post while we're gone because there is only dial up and it would take F.O.R.E.V.E.R. So, have a happy 4th of July and check back after the holiday weekend for a recap of our Rocky Mountain adventure! In the meantime, here are some cute pictures of the boys at their preschool's petting zoo. They had a blast! The one random one is Ryan playing pirates. Oh, and one quick #3 update, the perinatologists office called yesterday and said my bloodwork/sono results were back and combined, the risk of chromosomal abnormalities came back very, very low. Good news! I go back to their office in 6 weeks and back for an OB visit in 4. My full time job of going to doctor's appointments! I wouldn't have it any other way! :)

Big News, Little Energy

We're back! So sorry for the gigantic void in our adventures lately. Where have I been? Well, mostly on the couch. Sitting. Plotting when I can go back to bed next. Why the fatigue? Well, we have some exciting news...baby Lambert #3 is on his/her way! I'm almost done (grin!) with my first trimester and am very ready to say au revior to it! Man, have I been sick and tired. Literally. Anyway, we will pass the 13 week marker this week and look forward to the second trimester. Maybe I'll have some energy to, say, unload the dishwasher or, I don't know...maybe make the bed in the mornings. John probably feels like he already has three kids to tend to. :)

We are in full summer-mode around here. We spent a week over at Hilton Head Island and had a great time. Ryan and Tanner have done three weeks of camp at their school. Ryan loves it! Tanner isn't so impressed with having mommy drop him off. He's getting better. We are heading to Colorado for our annual trip next Sunday for a week. We went to Disneyworld and Sea World a couple of weeks ago and had a blast. Ryan will be heading to Horseshoe Bay for some Granny Lin and Grand Dad time after Colorado. John has his usual fishing trip to Alaska in August. I'm going to try to fit in a trip to Texas sometime around John's trip. My nephew is getting married in August in Abilene, so working on the logistics for that also. In between all of the travels, we do a lot of backyard swimming, playing at the parks, snowcone eating, and just running around having fun. I love the summer!!!

Here are a few random pictures to tide you over until I can do some real blogging. They are from our Hilton Head trip. Hope you are well. Start checking in again for some regular posts!!! Happy Summer!!!
