The Month of August...

Where do I begin? This past month we have enjoyed... our newborn, my mom, celebrating Hunter & Ted's Birthdays, back to school...Hunter in the 1st grade, Jackson in the 4 year old class at Stepping Stones Preschool..we've enjoyed swimming at the neighbors pool, my boys are not timid, they try back dives, back flips... We took Brayden up to Children's Hospital for an out patient surgery, the procedure was called "an excisional biopsy of scalp masses," he had hard marble size bumps growing on the back of his head. I noticed the first one the beginning of july, two weeks later there were six. They've been removed, they are benign and the Dr. said after viewing the pathology report that everything looks great. Poor little guy Brayden didn't even know what was going to happen as they wheeled him back for the procedure. They gave him a little something:) to calm him right before they wheeled him away, he didn't cry, but his parents sure did. He has dissolvable stitches & you wouldn't notice his incisions unless you looked really close........We've enjoyed Ted's parents visiting, Ted's sister Jenny & family were able to come down for Ty's baby blessing and last but not least we finally visited "Superior Dairy" home of the S.O.S...superior oversized sundae.

Baby Ty is Here!!!

Ty Charles Haubert arrived on Friday 8/5/2011 at 4:16pm. He was quite the little chubbikins weighing in at 8 lbs 15 oz & 19 in. He is a thick little guy. I have a great picture of myself right after delivering him, he is on my chest & I am staring out into space with an expression of "what just happened:)" on my face! I love it. We are extremely grateful to have him here. His brothers adore him.

Visitors & The Visalia Rawhide

We LOVED having family this past week!!! Mindy, Brooks, Wendy & all of our cute little cousins. The boys were in heaven! They left on Thursday, then Friday Night Ted & I hit a Rawhide game. They had been on a losing streak for the past 13 out of 15 games, so it was a good thing that we were there because they won. I believe they scored 8 runs, we are good luck:)

38 Weeks

Almost there...

Michigan

Oh how we love Michigan! I actually believe California is quite green, until you fly back east. We were able to spend a week with Ted's family. While we were there we decided that we would buy a house on the lake & stay there forever. Then reality set in and we headed back west:)
Here are some of the events that took place:
Friday: Drove down to L.A. Stayed in the Embassy Suites with Ted's Hotel points.
Saturday: Flew out of LAX, a direct 4 hour flight to Detroit. Arrived in Detroit around 6pm happy to be with family.
Sunday: A wonderful Father's Day. Ted's mother spoke in church. Dinner with Ted's entire family. The boys gave their dad a remote control helicopter for Father's day-awesome.
Monday: Boating & swimming on the Lake. Family Pictures.
Tuesday: Drove up to Traverse City, Michigan to stay in the Great Wolf Lodge. It was amazing! Indoor waterpark, arcade.....
Wednesday: Half day at the waterpark, drove back to Ted's parents house.
Thursday: Our niece Sammy's birthday party & bowling.
Friday: Strength for Sammy Fundraiser. I was able to meet most of Ted's friends & their wives. When we walked into the restaurant, one of his buddies yelled over & over, "Ted Haubert is here." They give him a hard time because they haven't seen or heard from him in almost 12 years, but you could tell that they sure do love him.
Saturday: Ted re-living his soccer glory days @ an alumni fundraiser event. Our nephew Alex's birthday party & saw the much anticipated Cars 2.
Sunday: Flight Home
I loved staying up late every night visiting with Ted's family. The charity events we attended were very special & I really enjoyed meeting & visiting with Ted's good buddies, friends & extended family.
