Well yesterday we found out we are going to have 4 babies, I am due in Jan but sure I won't make it that long! Lots of mixed emotions and feelings going on right now. Never did I imagine that when I got pregnant I would have 4 babies. It will be quite an adventure I am sure. Well I will post more later when my mind is more clear, which that may never happen!

Mother's Day Weekend 2010
Well we camping this past weekend with Kenny and Rachel and Rachel's family. It was very chilly, and alot windy! It was a good time though. The girls went with us. Duncan had a good time playing at the park and riding his bike around the circle. The girls and Duncan all really enjoyed playing with all of Patty and Woody's grand kids, we counted 13 kids total. They all got along very well. We had to eat in the camper on Friday night and Saturday morning. Tracy couldn't even cook over the fire because it was way to windy, but he did use the griddle to cook sausage, bacon and eggs! Sunday was very nice out. We started out the day by going to church, then the girls went with their mom and dad to a graduation open house. We went back to the camper and had brunch and then cleaned up to come home. Duncan screamed his head off when I buckled him in his car seat, he knew what was coming because the camper was all hooked up to the truck! He is going to have the Sad Sunday Syndrome when we go camping. Just like with Sarah, it will be easier to just let him sit and pout on the picnic table when it is time to clean up! Sunday evening we went to Abby and Rodney's to cook hobo's over the fire. They were very good. I am a bad mom and didn't take any pictures while we were camping, it was just to cold to even worry about the camera.
On Monday morning I realized that Saturday was Rodney's birthday( which I knew, I did tell him happy birthday), I just forgot that he is Duncan's cake buddy for birthdays! So Duncan and I are going to make a cake this week so Rodney gets his birthday cake! Should be fun to let Duncan help me! He loves to help in the kitchen.

Dubuque April 2010
Well it has been awhile! Since my last post, Duncan is all better from his surgery. Thank goodness. It took until day number 8 after surgery and he was back to himself. I was glad, it is horrible watching your baby not feel well.
Mom and I went to the park in Knoxville. Kelley and Hunter came over to play at the park. The boys had a good time. We stopped at Mike and Tracy's on the way home and had a nice visit. They were working hard on their fence in the back yard so they can get the pool put up!
Tracy, Duncan and I went to Dubuque for the weekend. Tracy had a conference on Thursday and Friday. It was at the Grand Harbor Resort and water park so we thought it would be fun to go as a family. We had a really good time. Duncan loved the water park, and his Dad took him to the arcade too. I think they had a blast there, I vegged in the room and watched TV! Duncan and I walked on the river walk, went to eagle point park to see the eagles. We did not see any. We did see the lock and dams, pretty cool. WE also walked along the river walk at the hotel, that was fun. Tracy got to go to the Fenton Cable car with us, and to the water park a couple of times. We also went to the aquarium, Duncan really liked that!
Hannah's birthday party was on Sunday that we got home so we stopped in Williamsburg to buy her gift. All she told us she wanted was jeans, so we went to old navy and got her a couple pairs.
We also attended Taylor's conformation at Christ the King. She was a lector and read one of the readings. She did such a good job. I could tell she was nervous, but once she got up there and started reading, she did an awesome job. We paid for the Dam to Dam for her conformation gift. She was very happy with that because she doesn't want to spend her money if she can get aunt and uncle to pay for it!!
This week we have been getting the camper ready to go camping. We are going to Saylorville this weekend with Kenny and Rachel and Rachel's family. It should be lots of fun. The girls are going with us also and Sunday is Mother's Day so we are going to have a cookout at the campground. Can't get much better than that, Tracy will do it all!! Just like he always does when we camp!!
Grandma and Duncan at the park, Duncan really liked this turtle.
Duncan really loves going down the slides, the bigger the better!
The cable car in Dubuque, a banker build this so he didn't have to go all through town to get to work. The book said he went home at lunch and even had time to take a nap. We rode this up, it was beautiful over looking the Mississippi River from the top. I of course forgot my camera at the hotel so we had to go back and take pictures! Tracy and Duncan think alike, they neither one like heights very well. Oh well it was a fun ride. You have to sit down in the car and pull the string and the operator at the top of the hill starts the car up the hill! It was inexpensive too, $1.00 per person for one way. We paid the round trip because we sure were not going to walk around to get back down town!
We went to the aquarium, Duncan really enjoyed looking at all of the animals. Fish, turtles, lizards, and lots of other little creatures.
Outside the Aquarium
Duncan watching the crocodile very close
Watching the frog
Walking along the Mississippi River Walk. Duncan would rather be running
Ducks in the river, Duncan and I sat and watched these ducks for about 20 minutes, he really liked just watching in the river. Barges, boats, fish and ducks.
Duncan decided that the place to ride in the stroller was the basket! He cleaned it all out into the seat and climbed right in.
Duncan at the water park in the hotel. He had a really good time. He liked the slides, but most of all he just like playing around in the water. We were in the wave pool and rode on the tubes, he played basketball in the water and just roamed around. Of course I didn't really think to take a picture of the "water park", I will get better at those kinds of things!
