Baby Ethan

Ethan John Huyser has arrived! Born Feb. 16 at 12:07 P.M. Weight 10lbs 22 inchs. A BIG healthy boy! We are soooo blessed! Another healthy baby! Glad to be home, we are adjusting but doing really really good!

New Pic's

We got to take care of Liam the other day for a few hours. He slept most of it. It is so fun watching him and Norah play. They both gave each other hugs, and kisses like it was going out of style. He is such a good little guy and now that he is walking it is so cute!!!

Norah helping mom...as usual lately. This time she had more fun licking the batter from the bowl. Don't worry, no raw eggs here.

Fun night out as a family at the Griffins hockey game with Jason, martha, and the kids. The kids went crazy when they got to meet Griff.

We've only been out in the snow a few times yet this winter. It's been to cold! Norah does seem to like being pulled in the sled though.

We had a play date with Jada and Isaac. So much fun having cousins close in age. Everything Jada does, Norah has to do too.

Life Lately

Hey everyone! Sorry it's been such a long time. Our family is doing great. We are anxiously waiting for our new little guy to arrive. I've been feeling good, but will be more than ready for him to get here. Dan has been busy getting Norah's new room finished, so we can move baby into her old room. It is really close to being done, hopefully in the next week or two. Norah is funny as ever talking up a storm, and seems to know exactly what she wants. We are hoping and praying she does ok with the adjustment of the new baby. Lately she is always wanting to help me do everything, from vacuuming to folding laundry to you name it so it could be interesting. Other than that, we are healthy and trying to enjoy the winter.

A Busy December So Far

Sat. night we had Dan's work party. A very fun night out with the two of us, and a reason to get all dressed up(Dan's favorite part...NOT)

Friday night I went out with Debi and Jenni, down town Holland for Up On The Roof Tops. Very fun! We will probably make this a yearly tradition.

Holiday baking with my mom and sister at our house on Friday afternoon, we did it all! YUM YUM!

I would say our December has been VERY busy so far, but also VERY FUN! Many more partys to come too.

Silly Norah

I'm not sure how else to describe Norah's personality other than SILLY! She makes us laugh constantly. She is talking all the time now, and told me she loved me for the first time, it melted my heart! Here are a few new pictures.

finger painting. Norah's favorite craft lately.

Her hand me down cowboy boots from Auntie Lynn.

I heard Norah calling me into the living room the other day, only to find she had climbed into her babies stroller. I still can't believe she even fit in there.

20 Week Appointment

This is by far my favorite appointment. Dan and I had our ultra sound appointment on Thursday. We are thankful that so far everything looks just as it should. What a miracle it is to see the baby and know that God designed this precious child just for us, and all I have to do is carry it, and he will take care of the rest. Also, we decided to find out the baby's sex this time around. There was no doubting it, a Baby Boy is on the way! We couldn't be any more excited. Hopefully the second half will go as good, and quickly as the first half has.

Such A Big Girl Now

Big changes this past week for Norah. First of all we moved her into a Big Girl Bed as we say. So far she has done awesome in it. No attempts at getting out, and sleeping just as good as always, some days even better. It still feels strange to know she is sleeping in that big bed compared to her crib. She totally thinks she is big stuff though, and has to show everyone when they come over. We are hoping this will be one less adjustment for her when the baby comes. Also we started only one nap this week and she is doing surprisingly well with that too. It gives mommy a nice afternoon break. Norah is just as silly as ever, keeping us on our toes every minute, and has started showing a huge interest in Elmo and Sesame Street. We can't seem to get enough of her, nothing new there.
