Addison's first photo shoot!

Last week we had a friend come over to photograph Addison for her newborn pictures. It was definitely an interesting time dealing with a newborns feeding and nap schedule but Christina managed to capture her beautiful personality.

Trying to catch up!!

Well it looks like I haven't blogged in quite a few months. What can I say chasing around a toddler and being a mother to a newborn not to forget also being a wife has really put a damper on my blogging.  So here is a little recap on our lives from the last few months.

Our beautiful baby girl Addison Elizabeth was born on April 24th at 12:16 p.m. This day will never be forgotten because it so happened to be Easter Sunday. We were planning on having my family and Tim's over for a day of relaxing and family fun but she had other plans. We made a trip to urgent care on Saturday night because Joshua decided to take a header into one of the post on the staircase. So at 9:00 at night were driving to the hospital to have his lip checked out, hoping and praying that he did not need stitches. We were blessed that the gash was going to heal on its own with no stitches needed, but by the time we got the antibiotic prescription and got home it was around 11:00 pm.  The Easter Bunny had to get things ready still, so I finally went to bed around 11:30 pm exhausted from our little adventure.  At 2:30 am I felt a sudden burst and to my surprise my water had just broken. The first thought that rushed to my head was "oh no what is going to happen to Joshua's Easter." Next thought that came was oh my I am going to have a baby again!  We got everything situated at home and headed off to the hospital.  By the time they checked me in I was already dialated to 3cm. From there on it was just the waiting game. At around 12 noon they had me start pushing and 5 pushes later our beautiful girl was welcomed into this world. I could not believe how much "easier" this delivery was compared to Joshua. Later that day Joshua came to visit us in the hospital and got to meet his little sister for the first time and it was love at first site. Tim and I could not believe how happy we were that our little family was not complete.

Baby Hansen #2

Well we are officially 12 weeks along and have decided to let the rest of the world know that we will be expecting baby number two on April 29, 2011. Joshua is going to be a big brother and Tim and I couldn't be happier. We are a little nervous about having two little runs running around but the kids will be about two and half years apart. So we will hopefully have one in diapers and one using the potty. Here are the ultrasound pics from my ten week doctors appointment. We were so lucky to see the baby already moving its arms and legs around. So for now the waiting game begins as to what we are going to have, a boy or a girl!!!

We're Back...

Well after many friends telling me I need to get back to blogging I have decided to come back. I know it has been a while since I posted and I am not going to bore you with old information. Joshua is now 19 months and getting bigger everyday. I am excited for summer vacation which is only 3 days away. I will then get to spend the summer with my little man going on Disneyland trips and play dates.

Alpha Chi Mommy and Kids Playdate

Today the boys and I got together with some of my sorority sisters whom I haven't seen in a few years. It was great to catch up with old friends and to meet everyones new little ones. It is amazing how even though through the years our lives have taken us in different directions we still all can get together and it is just like old times. I am looking forward to getting together again real soon!

4 months old

Well we got Joshua's four month pic finally. And we used cousin Gavin's outfit from Hawaii. Our wonderful little man is wearing 6 month clothing and is as happy as ever. We are loving him being so much more alert but he now wants your attention all the time. What a ham!

Joshua's first pair of Jordans

Joshua was sporting his first pair of Air Jordan tennis shoes. Thanks to Uncle George and Auntie Chrissy. He loves them!

Happy Valentine's Day

Joshua spent his first valentine's day with mommy and daddy. He got presents from Nana and Papa and as you can see Papa made sure he got his first football. You can tell our son is gonna love the game. From Grandma and Grandpa Hansen he got a book and a toy. Here is Joshua's first time in a high chair and you can tell he is having a good time.

Joshua's new tricks

Well, within the last few days Joshua has started to grab his toes, and sometimes puts them in his mouth, yuck. He can also now roll over from his back to his side then to his tummy. Here are a few pictures of him in action.

Santa Fe pictures continued

Here are some pictures from downtown and Nana's 90th birthday party!
