    Happy Halloween!

    Sunday, November 1st, 2009

    We hope everyone had a great Halloween! The girls had a blast this year dressing up and trick or treating! It was fun because they were both really into it this year. Ella was a candy corn witch and Kiley was “naughty and nice” in other words half angel/half devil.  We spent the day at Aunt Lori and Uncle Joe’s house with family (Grandma Marsha and Grandpa Mark, Grandma Debbie, Uncle John, Aunt Jill, Jake, Aunt Lori, Uncle Joe, Aunt Bonnie, and Uncle Dwayne). It was tons of fun! The neighborhood was hopping, and trick or treating was a blast! Ella had to have a conversation with just about everyone who’s house she went up to. It was hilarious. Kiley pooped out a little earlier than Ella, but she was having a great time running up to houses….Ella could have gone all night probably. We had a lot of great food, and too much candy!

    Today, we are watching the Bears game at home, and then heading out to Caleb’s birthday party. Another busy weekend! Which is pretty much the norm for Team Saip!

    Coming up… next weekend we have a visit with Scott and Ann to finally meet Julia, and going to the Bears game on Sunday. Then its off to Wisconsin to see Flecth and Ashley the following weekend. I believe we do not actually have anything definitely planned the weekend after that. Then we head off to ST. Louis for Thanksgiving. Should be another busy month! Time is flying and baby Saip will be here before we know it!

    Only 3 more months!

    Friday, October 16th, 2009

    Matt and I had a great time in New York last weekend!!! It was not exactly a relaxing vacation, but it was nice to get away for a few days just the two of us! I think it will be a while before we get to do that again. Thanks again to everyone that helped with all of our kids to make that possible!!! We got to walk around Times Square, see Mary Poppins on Broadway, go to the Giants game, hang out in the West Village for a fancy dinner, walk through Central Park, see the Columbus Day parade, and walk up and down 5th ave/Park ave among many other things while we were there for 3 short days. All I know is that we came home way more exhausted than we were when we left. And everything in New York is really expensive!!! I don’t think I could live there, but it was so much fun to visit!!!

    This weekend we have another busy couple of days planned. Tomorrow morning I am going out with Allison and all of her bridesmaids for lunch and dress shopping…should be tons of fun! Matt is hanging out with the girls and Grandma Debbie. We are then going to have a full house with Grayce and Gretchen joining us for the evening so that Derrik and Mary can enjoy a night out for their anniversary. The girls will love it! Sunday we are headed to Goebberts Pumpkin farm with family and friends for some fall festivities! The girls love the pumpkin farm! Ella starts dance class again on monday. Busy busy busy!!!

    Only 3 more months until we have this little baby boy! This pregnancy is going so quickly. I am still feeling pretty good. Just starting to get a little more tired and sore by the end of the day. Really not too much to complain about, although, Matt might tell you that I do complain all of the time :) . The holidays are fast approaching so it will be January before we know it!

    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.

    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.

    Sunday, August 16th, 2009

    We just had a great day with family and friends. We spent the afternoon with Ben and Jessy and Grandma Peg’s house in Aurora. Ella had to go to her dad’s house for the night and her birthday party tomorrow with the Zahn’s. We had a great afternoon hanging out with our niece and nephew. I’m going to post pictures in the morning from today. I’ve also got pics from last weekend to post.

    We were able to watch the Bears game as well. There wasn’t a whole lot going on with Cutlers debut. Oh Well, GO BEARS!

    In the meantime, I’ve got a music video from Paramore to post! ENJOY!

    We posted our photos from Baby Jake’s Birth! Beth got some crazy closes ups from being in the delivery room that I’m not going to post :) I’ve posted the safe ones and our photos from his first day at home. There are two great shots of the girls in sunglasses! Too cute!

    As for today, we went to visit Grandma Marsha in the hospital. She has been in the hospital because of severe back pain and we just wanted to cheer her up. We are now off to Grandma Debbie’s house to drop off the girls! The girls will be crashing there tonight so Beth and I can go see Daughtry downtown at the Vic Theatre. It’s going to be a great show!!!

    Check back soon for more updates! These next few weeks are going to be super crazy!
