STEELERS - steelers - STEELERS

wOO hOO :) Our Steelers have made it to the super bowl!! Not only is that like super exciting for us but, it means that Aunt Jennifer, Unlce Bob and Johnathan are coming to visit us! They will be here next Friday till Monday!! How fun for us any chance to spend time with them is fun for our whole family!! Not only did the Steelers make it to the SuperBowl but they will be playing the Green Bay Packers and Connor just incase you needed to know that is Papa Duris', Uncle Tom, Uncle Eddie, Peter and Adam's favorite team - so, this shall be one awesome game! Since our favorite team and their favorite team made it to the super bowl mommy and daddy decided to have a party here! What could be better?? I have such fun ideas running through my head - I just can't wait!!! GO STEELERS!!! Anyways- you and me have been super busy this week - we have just had alot of errands, housework and playtime ofcourse - we love our book reading time, and tool time and also our building of the blocks! Oh I wish I could get you outside everyday with winter still in its peak im really starting to miss our spring, summer and fall days when we could spend all day outside playing and getting plenty of exercise! Now the last two days have not been to bad snow is melting I think I may be able to bundle you up and when daddy is home for work we may be able to take a walk!! How much you sure would love that! I am also super exciting to tell you that just in the past week or so you are talking in sentences - i mean you had put words together when we have told you to but, now you can tell us in a sentences what you want! Its so, fun to be able to talk with you and just to see you mature and a sweet little boy! You are very smart for a 2 year old! You have also mastered counting to 5! How fun - Time to start on our ABC's..

Baby News of the week: Daddy and I got the crib all set up, and were hoping to go this week and get some bedding and a mattress - incase you are wondering why we didn't use yours - It ended up having a recall and we had to take the crib back at that point we bought you your cars bed which uses the same mattress as your crib so, here we are buying sweet new baby Zennon his own crib, mattress and some new bedding! I have also reached my third - trimester, I think its safe to say that I can see the end in sight! I received my pre registration packet from the hospital and got that all filled out and sent back in - we are getting very close to you meeting your new baby brother! Mommy has gained a total of 3 pounds so far but, this last trimester i believe I will putting on more weight all to help this sweet baby out!

Our New Adventure's..

Now, sweet Connor boy - don't take this the wont way - Daddy has loved every day, every minutes, every new thing you have done as a newborn up until now - but, I will say I think this was an age he was always looking forward too. I think sometimes he even thinks you are older than 28 months, when he try's to play different things with you. Let's see where was I? Oh to the title - New adventures! It seems and though sometimes as much as we enjoy our everyday toys some new ones are always fun! So, first off Auntie Andrea and Uncle Moose got you play-doh for Christmas and that seems to be one of our fun past times - we make "food" and "animals" and really anything else you want mommy to try her best and make! Second, Daddy has taught you how to make a fort in both mommy and daddy's room and our living room - so, once you are in bed and sounds asleep I will fold up the sheets and put them back in the closet only to have you wake up in the morning and have the sheets out to built your fort yet again! Its fun to see how much you and daddy enjoy playing in your "new" fort! Thirdly your new favorite thing to do is to follow the Cadi around the house and do just exactly what he does! You love to give him treats, you throw his toys for him, and you just act like a little cat yourself. Sometimes daddy and I don't know why this is your new obsession but, also find it just funny. Poor Cadi I will admit - you can be loud and drive him crazy but, he is just the tropper to let you follow and play with him ALL day EVERY day if mom and dad would let you. I choose this picture this week because daddy helped you hold Cadi and you just thought it was the best thing in the whole world. You soooo did not want him to get down! If you look closely at the back ground you can also see one of the forts that it up..lol!!! Fourth and final new thing for just this week, I have noticed that you are really starting to like the cartoon Max and Ruby - I didnt even know what this was until you got a dvd from the Hawaiians for your birthday - they must now, well now we found it on tv also, so between the dvd and the hour they have it on the cartoon channel it will destrack you long enough for mommy to shower and get some work around the house done before we spend the rest the of day playing!
So, this winter in my eyes has been pretty mild (now, that I say that, Im sure we will just get blasted and I will reget I ever opened my mouth) with that being said - Everyone (Aunt Jennifer to be specific) has asked about "snow playing" pictures and even though its been cold not as much snow and we usually get, we did get out in the snow back in December but, just as of last week we are a white covered ground again, and today you and Daddy got out to play in the snow for a second time this year! You sure do love it, its just so cold I don't like you out there to long!

Baby news: Mommy had her 26 week check up this week along with her glutose test - won't be sure of the results until my next visit but, am thinking they would call if there was a problem! So, everything with baby Zennon is still looking great! Mommy is measuring right on where I should be and that heart beat sounds great! Connor is acting more and more questions about the baby at first I really thought this would be hard for him but, the closer and closer we get to my due date I am seeing how I think he will just be the best big brother ever! Im so excited for him to be able to help mommy and after awhile have his best play mate ever!

So as we welcome 2011, 14 days into this year already - I believe more and more when people say you are so busy around the holiday's. As much as I didn't want to admit that was true here I am just filling in my sweet boy about our holiday season.. We certainly do have a wonderful family and everyone wanting to get together is even better - I think we had about 10 parties between Christmas Eve and January 2! You enjoyed each and everyone one of them, you got to spend time with all your cousins older, younger and those just about the same age! I am so thankful we have such a huge support team so, you can enjoy all the wonderful time with your family as well.. So, as I sat here today debating what I was going to write for this first post in what seems like forever (realizing I could tell you just about anything - since it has been so long ) I listened to you play with your new mega blocks table talking to the cars and driving them around the track you built just laughing after almost sentence I realized you still have no idea why you received that awesome new toy but, none the less you loved and were thankful for it:) I can't wait until you do realize what santa is and more importantly once that phase is over for you to realize the true meaning of christmas! I think we are finally getting back to our usual routine - naps are back to a regular schedule (which some days over this holiday season i really wished we could of gave you a nap) you are just such a happy and fun loving sweet child, i felt so bad you would miss naps and stay up way later and get up earlier than usual.. But none the less you were just a tropper!
So, now that we have that caught up - lately we have just been adjusting to being back at home, our daily chores, and since we did get some snow - trying to play outside in the snow! You also have been helping mommy and daddy at work - wish grandma and grandpa urbanski down in florida on vacation, mom and dad have spent alot of time and work which means so, did you - you don't mind at all - work is like a second ome to you, toys, coloring books, and lots of room to run - you just love it!

As for baby news : No updates since my last post - I do however have a dr appointment on wednesday - woo hoo, time to make sure everything is still on track and baby is growing how he should be..More to come!

But before I go, I know we have an extremly excited 2011 planned already! So bring on this new year:)
