SNOWPOCALYPSE:2:30PM:18inches + and still SNOWING!

FIRE CHIEF ON THE SCENE

Duncan knows that some jobs you have to do on your own to get it right!  Even if  you’re a 2 year old Fire Chief like himself!

Sorrowful News

 We are sad to find out that J’s Aunt and Duncan’s Great Aunt Myrtice Hicks of Miami, FL has passed away after suffering from an acute illness.  We say “goodbye” knowing and grateful that she enriched the lives of everyone she came into contact with.  She will be dearly missed.

HAPPY 40th BIRTHDAY SEAN!

Here is a link with a few tidbits of information of what was in the news 40 years ago today..

Then There Was THREE- Sean at 26 weeks

Sean and Duncan enjoy a light moment.  Sean is at 26 weeks now and we are in fullswing preparations for welcoming Baby girl to the family in late April. We do not have a name picked out yet!  A project that I’m sure we will have  completed by April.  We are planing what we are describing as a “celebrate the last time we will ever do this baby thing again party” sometime before April 15.  Otherwise, all is well.  Life is busy, but we did want to send warm thoughts to our Aunt’s Marilyn and Myrtice, and Uncle Jima. We are thinking of you and wish you the best of health!  We also want to wish our cousin Michelle a HAPPY BIRTHDAY on the 5th! 

CHRISTMAS 2009

We haven’t seen snowfall like this in quite a while. Here’s outside our home and outside the most famous home in America.  Dec 19 broke a 70 year long record as the most snowfall in a single day in the month of December.  For us, 13-17 inches!  And just in time for CHRISTMAS!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010

We had a wonderful Holiday Season with family and friends. More pictures will follow soon. We were so busy with holiday entertaining and playing Santa, we are just now able to start catching up to the new year.  We thank everyone who sent us cards and gifts and Christmas goodies.  We feel so blessed to have all of you in our lives.

BABY GIRL MANSPERGER 10 & 20 WEEK SONOGRAM

Well. It’s that ” most wonderful time of the year”!   As we get ready for the Holidays,  we were happy to see how well Baby Mansperger has grown since her 10 week sonogram.  At 20 weeks, everything checks out fine and she looks like a baby now with all her features intact and working!  Here’s more of what happens at 20 weeks:

Simply wonderful and amazing to see how much has changed in 10 weeks!  This will probably be our last Sonogram.  Due date is April 28th, but with a scheduled C-section, Baby Mansperger will probably be delivered earlier than that.

We are so excited now! And I think both Sean and I can attest, being pregnant during most of the Winter is sooooooooo much better than being pregnant during the Summer; like we were with Duncan in 2007.

And we have thought of Girl names, but we are not telling.  Not until Baby Mansperger is delivered into our most waiting arms!

THANKSGIVING BLESSINGS

We hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving.  We are happy and feel very blessed to let everyone know that we will be having a baby girl in April 2010!  Sean and baby are doing just fine.  As you see, Duncan has already visited Santa once at the Greenstreet Gardens in Lothian, MD.  We look forward to seeing some of you over the Holidays.  I am planning for Sean’s 40th Birthday in late January to become a Birthday Party/Baby-shower.   

HALLOWEEN 2009

Our lil Count Duncan the vampire seemed to enjoy Halloween this year with his cousin Anthony.  In fact, from the picture above, he seems to be practicing his vampire biting skills on himself.
