Family Pictures at the Beach

2009-09-29T13:44:00.001-07:00

This August the whole family was here so my Mom decided to have some professional pictures taken. They came out really cute even though the wind was blowing our hair everywhere!

The Nursery

2009-09-12T15:12:00.000-07:00

Here are some pictures of the baby's room. Now we just need furniture and a baby! Clint is working on building the crib now. I will post pictures as soon as he lets me take some!

The Zoo

2009-07-06T12:48:00.001-07:00

My friend Amanda and I decided to take the kids to the zoo today since I have had Gabriel for this past weekend. It was so much fun! It was so cute to watch Gabriel as he looked at all of the animals. He loved watching the elephant take a bath and playing in the fountain. Every time he saw an animal he would look back at us and point to make sure we saw it too. He's so cute! It was such a fun day!

It's a boy!

2009-07-03T12:21:00.000-07:00

Clint and I found out on Wednesday that we are having a boy. Clint was very excited, but it took me a little bit to warm up to the idea. I was really hoping for a girl, but I'm just so happy that we have a healthy baby. And I know it will be great to have a little boy too! Especially if he's like Clint!

Having the ultrasound done was really amazing. We could see him moving around. She even got a picture of him as he was about to put his hand in his mouth. She also measured all different things like the size of his head and the length of his body. She even checked things that I had never heard of. She said she had to count how many veins were in the umbilical cord. Apparently 3 is the magic number. Anything less than that and the baby could be perfectly healthy but they could also potentially have serious problems. Our baby has 3, thank God! She also saw a tiny bit of amniotic fluid in the stomach which she said means that he knows how to swallow. Also a very good sign.

I feel so blessed that we have a healthy baby. When you think about the number of things that could go wrong, it's extremely overwhelming. Clint and I are so thankful that so far, our baby is healthy and developing normally!

Weekend Project

2009-06-30T13:39:00.000-07:00

This weekend we decided to start making some changes in our yard to make it a little more inviting. We started with this ugly white wall which is the side of our neighbor's garage. We bought some pieces of lattice and Clint made the edging and dividers. Then we bought 2 tangerine beauty cross vines to go on either side of the vine my mom gave us for our anniversary. Clint dug up a small patch of grass to make a nice little garden to plant them in. It already looks so much better but I can't wait until the flowers start blooming!

The Best Husband in the World

2009-06-24T05:52:00.000-07:00

Yesterday Clint and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary. I can't believe how fast it went by. Every day I am so thankful to have him in my life. I couldn't ask for a more loving, caring husband. He came home with a giant bouquet of my favorite flowers, gerber daisies. Then we went to d. carlo, the restaurant where we had our rehearsal dinner. It was perfect. A nice quiet night with a man that I can't believe really exists. I can't believe that I am the one that gets to have him. Not only on our anniversary, but every day he does something to show how much he loves me. Some nights he'll walk in the door at 5:30 after a long day at work and start cooking dinner because he sees that I have fallen asleep on the couch. When I cook he always helps with the dishes. He is always willing to get me anything I need and help in any way he can. He is so wonderful and I know he is going to be an amazing dad too! I love you so much honey bunch!

Gaspee Day Parade

2009-06-14T15:24:00.000-07:00

We went to the Gaspee Day Parade. Clint and Jared ran the 5K that took place right before the Parade. He did such a good job. I'm so proud of him. The parade was really nice too!

Update Number 2: Our New House

2009-06-14T15:17:00.000-07:00

We received an incredible opportunity to rent a much bigger place for about the same amount of money we were paying for the hallway we called an apartment. We couldn't pass it up so we made move #3 at the end of May. Now we are back in Cranston.

Finally an update!

2009-06-14T15:08:00.000-07:00

I can't believe how long it has been since I've added anything to our blog. Things have been a little crazy around here though. Which brings me to update number 1 : We're having a baby! The baby is due around December 1st and we can find out if it is a boy or a girl on July 1st. We can't wait! Here is the very first ultrasound we had done. I was almost 10 weeks at this point.

A Day at the Park with Gabriel

2009-03-07T11:57:00.000-08:00

Today was the first warm day in a long time! I think it got to about 60 degrees! It seems so strange that less than a week ago school was cancelled because of the snow and today we were walking through the snow with no jackets! It was so nice we decided to bring Gabriel to the park. He went on his first swing ride and loved watching all the geese. It was such a fun day!

The Super Bowl

2009-02-14T07:06:00.000-08:00

Clint decided to root for the Cardinals this year since his team didn't make it. In case you can't tell from the pictures, he printed a Cardinal's emblem and taped it to a red shirt. He's so funny! Notice the "dead bird" after they lost too!

Our Little Munchkin

2009-02-14T06:59:00.000-08:00

Here are some pictures of Gabriel. We are so happy that we get to see him all the time! He's such a cute and pleasant baby. We love our little munchkin!

2009-01-01T17:36:00.000-08:00

Ok so I know it has been a ridiculously long time since I have added anything to our blog. With 2 weeks off for Christmas vacation I had to make sure I finished everything with my students. Then we had a snow day right before the start of vacation which made it even more stressful. But anyway, here are some pictures from Christmas. The first one is our table setting for the Christmas "Adam" party we had. (For those of you who don't know my crazy husband, it's what he calls the day before Christmas Eve) We actually made the napkin rings together. The second picture was taken on Christmas day. Clint made that name plate for me to put on my desk. He's so talented! That was one of my favorite presents! And the very last one is a picture of our tree. Hope everyone had a great Christmas!

Apples!

2008-10-26T05:46:00.000-07:00

We went apple picking today! Clint had never been and I haven't been in a long time. We had a lot of fun. It was the perfect day for it...sunny and warm! Now we're going to make a delicious apple pie! Yum!

Bearss Construction

2008-10-23T15:50:00.000-07:00

Here are some pictures of the most recent house that Clint and Martin built.

My Classroom

2008-10-23T13:59:00.000-07:00

Here are some new pictures of my very own classroom! I just love saying that! I am so thankful that I finally got the opportunity to have my own class! That bulletin board is outside the 3rd grade classrooms. Each student made a square for the quilt. I thought it was so cute and I had to take a picture because it says Mrs. Bearss! Yay!!

I Finally Did It!

2008-09-29T20:57:00.000-07:00

Well I finally started a blog. It might take me a while to get it up to par though because I am pretty busy with work. I'll do my best! :)
