Where have we been?

You may be wondering about the lack of posts...I promise I will catch up as soon as our new computer is up and running. Our laptops are giving me trouble with pictures.

A lot has happened and it has been a very busy few weeks for us!

Baby Johnston is doing well. David and Owen got to listen to the heartbeat for the first time this morning and I must say they were "underwhelmed". :) Got my H1N1 shot taken care of too. Everything looks good and we are eagerly awaiting our first level II ultrasound in November. Any guesses on boy or girl? Also, I am eagerly awaiting the end of pregnancy sickness!!!

David has been busy at school with school pictures and his first field trip with a ride on a real school bus. A highlight for him. Owen is walking all around now and had a trip to the ER from a fall and a cut to his chin. Fortunately the doctor was able to use glue and not stitches and he's back to being the jolly little guy he is.

The boys have been enjoying watching the afternoon Phillies playoff games. They are both fans already! As soon as the game comes on, Owen lights up and starts chanting, "Baseball, baseball!" and "Go, go, go!". It is so adorable! He claps when they make a good play too. He is already a little sports fan. David loves to watch the games too and he gets so excited when a home run is hit. What fun. Although, I must say, these evening games are really taking away my sleep! :) Go Phils!!!

Well, hopefully I'll be able to get the posts and pictures up by the end of this week. I will leave you with a funny pregnancy story that I blame on "pregnancy brain." :) Enjoy!

A few weeks ago, I spent the day with my dear friend, Jen, and her kids. We all went to Linvilla Orchards to pick apples and enjoyed the playground with kids afterwards. Well, we parked near the apple trees and it was quite a walk to the playground, so I moved the car closer. We all went to the playground and walked back to the car. I searched through my purse to find my keys, with no luck. As I am frantically searching for the keys, Jen's daughter Rebekah says, "I think the car is running!" YES folks, I left the keys in the car with the car RUNNING THE WHOLE TIME! Not my finest moment. :)
