time flies

Wow! Deer hunting season is over, Thanksgiving has come and gone, the Nativity scene and the Christmas tree are put away, and now we are writing 2011.
We are happy and healthy! We were blessed with many things for Christmas, and look forward to celebrating with Mike’s family soon! Axton received a large fire truck from my parents, and papa was one of the first to get sprayed with water. Beckett enjoyed all the attention from other people. Mike is back at work (vacation is over). I just today obtained my CEN (Board Certified Emergency Nurse)!

Just hangin' out in the jammers!

Tis the season

Yes, we survived Halloween, and it was great. Axton made handsome and convincing cowboy. Beckett was a calm, quiet and cooperative horse. We had a great time trick-or-treating with friends. Then, Axton enjoyed handing out the candy to kids that came to our house. Axton is very excited about deer hunting, and can’t wait to be outdoors with his grandpa next weekend!!

anyone notice?

Here I go…
A long overdue post. The boys are doing awesome. It is such a privilage to be the mother of two awesome boys (I say that as they are still at daycare)! Mike is busy teaching 3rd grade and loving it. I am busy with work, and loving it. I guess life is good here at the Svir house. Happy Halloween! Stay tuned for pics of the boys, as Axton refuses to wear the costume he picked out.
If anyone actually reads this post please leave a comment and I will continue to blog.

can’t wait until summer

my true love

Our family

update while I can

Ok, here goes…

I am doing a quick blog update while both boys are sleeping (or supposed to be!).  We are doing great here at the Svir house.  Our newest addition, Beckett, arrived about 2 1/2 weeks early, which I am very happy about.  Beckett was a good size and healthy, so it was all good!

Mike is back at work.  It is hard for Axton to have dad gone all day, but he really looks forward to Mike coming home!!  I am planning to be home for about another month.  I love being home with the boys–we have such a laid back routine.  I have not uploaded any pics, so look at Helene’s blog for a pic of Beckett. 

Happy Fall!!!

less than 6 weeks and counting

Yeah, we are due in less than 6 weeks with the Svir Baby!  As many of you know, I should not get my hopes up, and it could be closer to 8 weeks, until we meet the little man. 

All is well here.  Mike is enjoying his summer, and Axton loves having dad around.  We had fun at a wedding last weekend, and look foward to a packed summer. 

already 2

Wow, Axton is already two years old.  Everyone says time goes fast, but you don’t know until you have your own children.  We had a “well child” check up, and everything looks good, however tonight he is getting sick–go figure!

We are planning a little party for Axton, and hope it goes well.

Fish

Yes, this is a long overdue post. 

Axton got his first pet(s).  We got him four goldfish.  He seems to love them.  He always says hi in the morning, and checks on them at lunch, and says goodnight to them.  He enjoys watching them and will tell you all about them if you call. 

I have taken on a ne challenge at work, which is going fine.  It is hard to get into something new, just when I am getting really comfortable. 

All is well here at the Svir house, and Axton’s going to be a big brother in August!!!
