and this is why

I am incredibly baby hungry!! lol

Kellen and Liam are such great buddies already.. he tells Liam that when he gets a little bigger he can take him outside and teach him basketball lol

He will seriously be the BEST dad!

I am a lucky girl :)

bring it on 2011 :)

I am sooo glad the weather was crappy because that meant my sister and her family got to stay and spend new years with us!

I absolutley love having them here :)

and I am very proud to say.. I didn't cry when they left... at least I haven't yet! lol

Ava and I spent most of the morning together new years eve.

We danced to Lady A and did hair.

She was sooo funny about her hair. If anyone touched it or even touched her she would get mad and say "don't mess up my hair for the party" lol

Another funny thing she said..

My family LOVES the song need you now by Lady A..

my nieces know the entire song.. I should post the video I have of Ava singing it sometime anyways...

So we were singing need you now and she all of a sudden stopped and asked me

"do you know who plays the piano for this song"

"KELLEN!!!"

smiling so big lol

My family thinks that Kellen looks EXACTLY like the guy who plays the piano so whenever he comes on tv in a music video my nieces always yell.. look its Kellen lol

Kellen and I went out to lunch just the two of us.

We love having family over but with Kellen working and spending time with family sometimes we don't get time for us... and as newlyweds we need it :) lol

Kellen and Abi taking a nap


This year for new years we went over to my brother Ryan's.
Him and his wife Melissa just finished their basement and it is GORGEOUS!
Some played poker, some played pool and some watched a movie and talked.
