Drumroll Please! I'd like to introduce to to our newest addition! This is Gracie(or Madison) Ann Schaaf...unless I change my mind on her name, but this is HER!!! That's right we are going to have a little girl join our family in September!
We are all super excited. We took Ky with us to the ultrasound yesterday, he was really excited because apparently baby ultrasounds look like Buzz and when they freeze the screen he got really excited because there were two Buzz's on there!
Everything is looking great, she moves around a whole lot, but looks great. All the pictured showed how she was having her hand by her face all the time, which happened with the boys too! We're feeling her move more and more.
So excited to buy cute pink things!
We love you baby and can't wait for you to get here!
Love Mommy

Time FLIES!!!!


Our little bear is getting soooo big!



  • He has AT LEAST 8 teeth-there may be more hiding in the back but I don't like to be bitten, IT HURTS!!!


  • He crawls like a madman everywhere he goes!


  • He's mastered going up the stairs and thinks it's hilarious to run up them from mom!


  • He walks along anything he can reach


  • He eats twice as much food as Kyler, by this I mean we order food for Ky after Jace has ALREADY eated and Jace promptly eats Ky's meal or anything in front of him!


  • He's slowly getting used to being in his own bed, but still loves to snuggle-and I'm not going to argue with that, I love our snuggle time!


  • Even though Ky beats on him with all the love and hardly ever shares with him, HE LOVES HIS BIG BROTHER!

These are just a few things that I love about Jace. I don't want any middle child syndrome so I'm starting now to try and do stuff! Oh and if you're wondering about the thing on his head...we've been unfortunate to keep his head blemish free. Now I know you think this was all one person's doing but we had three different things happen to his head...all different adults watching when they happened! He fell into a table if you can see the bruise, he crawled off a bed when a back was turned on the trip, and fell into the corner of our entertainment system which knocked off the scab, and conveniently gashed his head IN THE SAME SPOT!!! We're hoping this trend does not continue!!!




Disneyland 2010

If you'll all remember we went to Disneyland with my family in September, we were in the park for 5 days...we looked for Buzz everyday and were told he was on secret missions, or filming his new movie. Day one this trip we found him. Ky was in 7th HEAVEN!!! It was awesome. Whoever was playing this character did great with the kids getting on their level and not just posing with them. What a neat experience! Well Mator and Lightning couldn't really do much...so Ky decided that he'd just climb in Mator's mouth...we were all laughing so hard!!!
Our happy baby...not such a baby anymore! But he love aunt Heather!
Breakfast with Minnie, one of the highlights of our trip! The characters were amazing! Look at Minnie, she actually sat down and held and played with Jace! Loved it!

The Whole Group!
This was an amazing trip and was so much fun! Carol and I decided that we may make a girls trip every year...and include the kids because they were hilarious, and Heather probably wouldn't come if we didn't! Can't wait to do it again!
NEW ADVENTURE????

16 Weeks...Moving right along!!!

Went to the Dr for my 16 week checkup, I can't believe I'm almost halfway there! Anyways, Dr Fowers said I was progressing right along. I had been losing since January..since before I knew I was pregnant but this months weight checked showed I'd actually gained a pound...would like to keep weight gain at a minimum because I was still trying to get Jace's baby weight off! We got to listen to the heart beat...which was beating at 156..and was incredibly hard to find! We find out the sex of the baby next time! Yeah!
