Busy Busy

Well, we have done a lot in the past few weeks! Beth turned 30, Ella turned 5 and started kindergarten! We enjoyed ourselves at Dan and Sarah's wedding this past weekend as well! They are off to Aruba and we are jealous! We loved our honeymoon and would do it all over again!

Labor Day Weekend will bring us to St. Louis to visit the family and head to a Cardinals game! Hopefully they will start playing better ball leading up to our game! 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!”

    Check back soon for more updates!

    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!
