His little face is so precious! He's got dark hair and beautiful skin! Mommy has got him all taken care of and he is being so great!

Check out photos on Flickr of our little bundle of joy! One of the favs is the photo to the left of the copy.

Check back soon for more updates!

    Two Days!

    Wednesday, January 13th, 2010

    We are only two days away now from the birth of our son! We couldn’t be more excited at this point. It’s always fun to talk about it with Ella and Kiley! The other day they were putting babies under their shirts to be like Mommy!

    The only bad part is that the girls still won’t be able to visit us in the hospital. I truly wish that they could be there before and after he is born. We will just have to take ton of pictures and I’m going to try and hang out with them for a few hours each day. I really want to take Ella to see the new Alvin and the Chipmunks Movie. I know she would love that.

    Everytime I think about Friday, I get more and more anxious and excited. It’s a wonderful experience and I can’t believe we are so lucky to have another . We are so blessed to have Ella and Kiley and adding Connor to the mix is going to be great!

    Yesterday, I was talking to a few clients and had great conversations about Friday with them. Dan from the Bears was giving me workout tips to get Connor in the NFL. He said the quickest way to the NFL is to be a Long Snapper! I’m sure we can try and make that happen :) He also mentioned it’s an easy way to get a college scholarship. That would be awesome too! I am wanting him and his cousin Jake to play pee wee football as I never did. I’m sure Osol, Schmidt and Fletcher will be willing to teach and train him!

    Gonna run and head into the office. Be sure to check back soon as we will be updating the blog as much as we can over the next few days! Allison joked that we should do a live feed on Friday – who knows we just might! Ha ha!

    Christmas Decorations!

    Before the Tree was put up!

    Before the Tree was put up!

    We set up our Christmas Tree tonight and the girls loved it. I realized once the kids were in bed that I didn’t take enough pictures (which is a first). I only have one from before we started. It’s cute none the less. The girls are loving this time of year and it will be here before we know it.

    Before Christmas though is my 29th birthday! Yikes! For all of you laughing right now that I’m getting older, just remember you are either my same age or older! So, me turning 29 only means you are just as old or older :)

    Tomorrow we are heading to watch the Bears Game at Gold Class Theaters in Barrington with John and Jill. It’s free to get in and probably the best theater ever to watch a movie or a game. Allison and Donnie have been a few times this year and have loved watching the game there. I know, you wonder why we watch the Bears if they are this bad right now. We can’t give up on them and it’s a good reason to sit in the comfiest chairs ever!

    I’m not sure what we will be up to after the game tomorrow. I know that we still have some shopping to do before our family Christmas pictures are taken on Monday Night. I don’t think Beth knows what she is going to wear. After that, we will need to get our Christmas cards ready and sent out. It’s going to be really cool in a few years to see each years Christmas cards. The Osol’s hang each years Christmas cards in their living room and it’s always cool to see every year.

    Be sure to check out this awesome video of Kiley on the train at the zoo in St. Louis! We finally got her on film saying “AHHHHH BOOO!”

    Great Day!

    Saturday, November 7th, 2009

    Today was a great day weather wise and Team Saip did a ton of stuff! First, we went to pre-bowl for my league in Hoffman Estates. Ella, Kiley and Beth got in on the action and bowled a game too. I didn’t do too bad but could have done better. It’s always interesting trying to pre-bowl and keep a good pace going.

    After that, we came home and ate lunch. The girls took a nap and then it was off to Scott and Ann’s. We have a great visit and Julia is adorable. Check out the pics!

    It’s off to bed now to get up early for the Bears Game! We are dropping the girls off at Grandpa Lee and Grandma Sue’s bright and early. Then it’s off to tailgate with Allison and Donnie! GO BEARS!

    I’ll leave you with this video!

    Happy Anniversary!

    Sunday, October 4th, 2009

    Yesterday was a great day! The weather wasn’t the greatest and we were a bit tired from Jessi’s wedding on Friday night but all and all it was a great day! I got Beth her favorite – Red Roses! She got me a Bears Polo, it’s love :)

    We went and saw The Hangover at Gold Class Cinemas. That place is AWESOME! I totally recommend it for a night out. Great way to see a movie. Today we are going to start planning for our trip to NY next weekend. We need to find some cool things to do while we are out there. I just hope the weather will cooperate.

    Alrighty, time to hit the shower and pick up the girls from Grandpa Lee and Grandma Sue. Bears game at noon. Bear Down!

    Ellas First Bears Game!

    Ella's First Bears Game!

    Boy, it’s been one interesting week! I just wanted to post photos from the Chicago Bears game last Saturday and from Ella’s 4th Birthday Party! There are tons of photos from both.

    Let’s start with the Chicago Bears game. We decided to take Ella to her first Bears game for her 4th Birthday and she had a blast. The NY Giants were able to get us sideline passes during warmups and it was an amazing experience. Ella is going to think we are going to get on the field for every game we get to go to! Check out the photos here.

    Ella’s 4th Birthday part was the next day and it was tons of fun. Thanks to Aunt Lori and Uncle Joe for letting us have it at their house again in Woodstock. Our nephew Jake was the talk of the party! I don’t think John was even able to hold him the entire party because everyone wanted to get his hands on him.

    Ellas 4th Birthday

    Ella's 4th Birthday

    We had a pool, slip n’ slide, bounce house, bags and great food. I wish we could have parties like that every weekend. It was a great way to relax for an afternoon and enjoy family.

    Ella would like to say Thanks to everyone for making her day and birthday very special! Check out the photos here.
