Baby #2

We are so excited for Baby Wiese # 2 and excited to welcome the 2nd trimester! I am due June 14th which is one day before Oliver was due. So they will be 2 years apart, hopefully not exactly! I am starting to feel better but still a little nauseous in the evenings. Much better than all day though! At my 9 week appointment, I got to have an ultrasound to make sure when the baby was due...

It is so amazing how you can see the arms and legs so well when it is so tiny!

Here I am at 10 weeks...

Hopefully we will remember to take pictures more often... like tonight hopefully!

I had my 13 week appointment today and the heartbeat was 152. We are so thankful that everything is going well so far. God is good :)

Snow Day

We had our first real snow blanketing the ground when we woke up this morning. And then our first real snow day, Community Bible Study was cancelled so Ollie and I decided to go out and play in the snow! It would be Ollie's first real time playing in the snow. He loved it (besides having to wear his mittens)! We stayed out for about 45 minutes and surprisingly when we got back inside, every part of him was still warm.

Oliver's new words lately are, "watch this". We think he learned it from his cousins but he says it a lot and won't do what he is going to do (usually fall down) until we are watching him. He is getting his molars in and I can tell because he hasn't been sleeping as well some nights. He is doing a really good job at putting his animal puzzle together all by himself and loves to dance with dad. :) In the picture below he got the scale up on his slide and I'm not sure if you can see it but he has eye liner on his face. He loves his slide (walking up it especially) and helping me put makeup on...

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving this year was wonderful. We spent the first 2 1/2 days with Andrew's parents. It was fun to just relax and spend time with just his parents, we don't get to do that too often. On Thanksgiving Ollie got to have fun on Grandpa and Grandma's slide they got out and let us take home. He loves it!

We spent the afternoon preparing our Thanksgiving feast, and that it was!

On Black Friday morning, Andrew woke @ 5:15 am to go disc raking (not shopping) with Zach and his Dad. He had a blast and they found 30 some discs I think. When he got home around 9ish we went shopping while his mom watched Ollie for us. It was such a treat! Ollie had a lot of fun with Grandpa and Grandma :) Thanks so much for everything Dad and Mom! We love you!

Friday afternoon we headed down to my parents and got to hang out with some new friends for the evening. We had fun just hanging out and playing games.

We stayed up late until Dad, Dustin & Leah, and Brock got back from the Iowa vs. Nebraska game. It was so good to see Dustin and Leah again!

Saturday morning we went to Grandpa and Grandma Massner's for brunch. While we were getting ready to go, these 3 decided to dress up (or down)....

And then these 2 decided to to do Grandma's laundry...

They love playing with Uncle Drew...

The brunch up at G&G's was delicious and everyone but Nichole and I stayed all afternoon to play games (we had to put the boys down for a nap). Saturday night @ Dad and Mom's, us kids got out the Dutch Blitz cards...

and played Things...
It was so much fun having everyone together and just having a blast together.

Sunday afternoon, Mom took pictures for her Christmas card. Here is a good one of our family (besides Andrew's mustache that he and my brothers grew out for Movember, so sad I didn't get a picture of them all with the mustaches before my brothers shaved theirs!)

...
A good one of Dustin and Leah...

A good one of Aaron, Nichole, and kids...

And I forgot the picture of Brock and Drew... but most of you will see it on the Christmas card :)

Mom snapped a cute picture at lunch of us praying with Ollie... I'm sure he reminded us to pray, or maybe this is our second time?... just glad he likes to pray :)

Here is a good picture of Mom and Nichole while we were preparing our Thanksgiving feast for Sunday night.
After our delicious feast we celebrated Aaron's birthday.
My brothers and Zach singing Happy Birthday. So glad Zach could join us for "Thanksgiving".

And of course, we can't forget the moment Ollie got to drive Apa's (Papa's) truck. He had been asking all weekend and finally got to do it :)
U. Don, A. Carol, and Marie also came out to celebrate and hang out. It was sad saying good-bye to Dustin and Leah Sunday night because we aren't sure when we get to see them again... probably next summer :(

We had such a fun Thanksgiving and are so thankful for wonderful family, our Savior who died for us, and so many blessings.
