Long over due...

Its been a million years since I have posted. That's either due to my laziness or the non-stop never-ending flow of in-out-go-here-go-there-people-here-people-there lifestyle our little family has taken on!
But its time for things to slow down. From now till the end of July, is my intention.
Matt is heading out to Belgium for work the end of July into mid-august. And we HOPE that I can venture with him, but lets see if time, money, and children make any of that possible!  Children because we don't intend to bring Ellee, and baby Dudge #2 will be 25 weeks along, eek!
In the meantime, there are still many festivities occurring till then but the time will pass too quickly I am sure, and then our summer will be over :( Oh and I'll be as big as a house.

Next weekend is Ellee's first birthday party. Were having a few friends and family coming from Canada and Wisconsin to help us celebrate. I have to find some creative idea for her cake :) Matt informed me cupcakes were just not cool so I will be whipping up some sort of pink, white, black, polka dot and stripe cake. I am excited to do it non-the-less since you only turn one once :)

 

Last week her first present made an appearance on our doorstep. My sister lives in Saskatchewan with her husband and since they wont be making the several day long journey to get here it was super sweet of them to get her a present and have it shipped. Need less to say, she loves it, but it will definitely take some time for her to figure out the workings of the slide!
