I can roll over!

But I DON'T like it! :) Landon learned how to roll over this morning. We knew that he was getting close, but didn't realize that he could do it until about 5:30 this morning when he woke up crying. Matt went to check on him and found him on his tummy! :) No one has actually witnessed him roll over, but mom found him that way after one of his naps today too. So as soon as I get a picture, I'll post it!

We also got our new car last night. It's pretty "sporty" looking according to Matt, even though it's our family car, and we have yet to try and fit 2 car seats in the back, but hopefully we'll be able to make it work! :) We like it pretty well for buying it at an auction without ever seeing it or driving it. I'll post pictures once I take some!!

I also have to post about how wonderfully thoughtful my husband is. He came home with these today: What for you may ask? No reason! :) He saw them and said he knew I liked flowers and didn't know that there would be tulips out already. What a sweetheart. Matt is always so thoughtful and considerate. He has been such a great support to me and is a terrific dad. I love to watch him with Landon!

Below are some pictures I had to share:

Ok, so maybe you can't tell from this ultrasound shot but how about the next one???

Yep. It's a girl! Hard to believe since Matt and I both thought the baby was probably a boy since it has Hahn genes! Landon was excited, since he guessed it was a girl from the beginning. Every time we asked him if he wanted a brother, he'd just sit there, but when we asked if he wanted a sister, he'd smile or coo.

The ultrasound was soooo neat. It was neat to see her moving around. She sucked on her fingers and moved her mouth a lot. She was also moving around like crazy!! The ultrasound tech assured us that this does not mean that she'll be a hyperactive child! :)

I also felt her kick this week for the first time. At first I didn't know what it was, but after she kept doing it I asked Matt and he could feel it too. God is so amazing and I am so happy and blessed to be able to experience being pregnant. It's such a miracle and pretty unbelievable that a baby can grow inside of you.
So Landon's going to have a little sister to watch out for. He was probably just excited because now he won't have to share his room! :)

Hope things are going well for everyone out there. Stay warm! School is cancelled tomorrow for us already because of the frigid temps.

Baby Dedication and Adoption Finalization

Landon had a big day on Sunday. He was dedicated at church (and cried during the whole dedication)! But I do have to admit that was my fault. He hadn't eaten yet that morning because we usually wake him up, dress him, and then feed him at church. Well, his dedication was near the beginning of the service so I didn't want him to be eating or have to stop him from eating to take him up front. But then he cried. Lesson learned! :)

Then we also celebrated the Hahn/Berger/Clark Christmas here. Originally it was scheduled for Saturday night, but Matt, Nate, Robin, and Cathy came down with the flu so we rescheduled for Sunday night. We are so blessed that both sides of our family get along well enough to spend the holidays together!

Then on Tuesday, we headed down to Indianapolis for Landon's adoption finalization. We had to go before a judge and answer questions from our lawyer. It took less than 10 minutes and the adoption was final!! Now we are just waiting on Landon's birth certificate from Virginia so he can officially be a Hahn and then we need to get him a social security number. I do think we are finally done paying for the adoption though. Landon did SUCH a good job in the car. He slept almost the entire time we were driving until he got hungry on the way down. But then on the way home he slept the entire 3 hours! So we were very nervous about how he would sleep at night. But of course, he's such a good baby, he slept all night too! :) What a blessing he is to our family!

First Christmas

Landon has been such a trooper over the last week or so. We have been carting him around everywhere and he's just his laid back happy self! :) We celebrated Christmas with most of our family members and Landon, of course, got an abundance of gifts. He wasn't too interested in gifts this year, but we still had a good time. It is so wonderful to have family nearby (or fly into town) so we can celebrate Jesus' birth together each year. Below are some pictures of our many Christmas celebrations! I hope you all had a blessed Christmas too!

Car, books, and Christmas

I guess we are now officially in the market for a new car. After talking with our insurance and getting the estimate from the body shop, the car is hardly worth more than it will cost to fix it, so it's going to be totaled. Which was not good news for us, since we weren't in the market for a car or a car payment at this time! And we were hoping the car, which was 5 years newer, would outlast our SUV. But not so. So I guess we are keeping our eyes open for a used (but not abused) car! :) And we'll have to make a decision over break since I'll need a car to go back to work in Jan.
In other news, I just finished the book Twilight, which is what the movie by the same name is based on, and I really enjoyed it. I had my doubts being that it's about vampires and I'm not so much into that, but I really did like it and would recommend it to anyone looking for an easy read that's not violent or has profanity in it. I think I'll try to continue and read the rest of the series as well.
And finally, since it is Christmas Eve, just have to comment about how excited we are to celebrate with Landon this year (even though he has no clue what's going on!) and Kristina and Nate are home to celebrate as well. Merry Christmas! Love you all!

Shots and Baby #2

Landon had his 2 month immunizations today. I was glad that Matt was off of school so he could go with us, since I didn't know how Landon would react. We gave him tylenol before he went (thanks to the advice of my mom friends)! He did such a great job. He cried right after each of the 3 shots, but calmed down almost immediately and he's been pretty much his same happy self this afternoon. He seems a little more tired, but other than that he's doing fine. Matt says he's a champ! :)

I also had my monthly doctor's appointment this week. Everything's going well. I gained 1 pound (which is better than last month when I lost 2!) and the baby's heartbeat is strong. But the most exciting part is that I got to schedule my ultrasound appointment for Jan. 15th! That's when we should find out the gender of the baby and yes we will be sharing that.

So all babies are doing well and Matt and I are fine too. Have a great weekend!

Steaks or Hamburgers?

Well for 3 weeks now I have been trying to rejoin the choir at our church. I haven't gone since Landon was born. First off for being gone for a few weeks and then feeling sick. But the first week was cancelled because of Thanksgiving, the next week Matt had a Wednesday night meeting, and last night a cow got in the way. Yes, I said a cow. Matt hit a cow last night on his way home from work. It was about 6:30, so it was dark, the cow was black, and it was standing in the middle of the road. So needless to say, he didn't see it until it was too late. Matt is fine, minus being a little sore, but the cow was not! :) We found out it was our neighbor's cow and they picked it up with a skidloader and took it to get butchered. The car is pretty messed up too. The windshield broke and the front right side is pretty banged up, so it was towed to the repair shop. But thankfully all people involved were safe. So, add to the list of Matt's accidents: hitting a tree, hitting a girl on a lawnmower, and hitting a cow! :)

2 months old already!

I can't believe how fast Landon is growing (or how little I am on the computer even though I'm home all day.) Some days I'm lucky to get dressed, much less check my email. Landon always seems to get fussy when I start typing! :)
Anyway, Landon had his 2 month check up with the doctor on Tuesday and he's doing great! He weighs 12.2 pounds, which is in the 50th percentile, and is 24 in. long, which is in the 75 percentile. So he is on his way to being a tall, average build guy! :) He needs to get his immunizations too, which I'm NOT excited about, but we have to check with our insurance to see if they cover them or not. So, I'm sure that will be a fun day!
Landon enjoyed his first Thanksgiving, well he probably enjoyed the attention everyone paid him rather than the food! :) It was awesome to see Steven and Kristina for a few days, especially since Steven is leaving on Friday for Iraq. So keep them in your prayers.
And of course, I have to mention, it is Matt's 31st birthday today. He has a bball game tonight so we're not really doing anything special tonight. But we are tagging along with the twins on their bday to celebrate with them and Matt too! :)
Hope you all are having a great week!

Successful Week!

We have lots of things to be joyful about this past week! :)

1. Landon has started sleeping through the night! And it's been awesome!! (Of course, as I write this, he actually woke up at 3 am last night, but the few nights before then he slept 6, 7, or even 8 hours at night!) Praise God for that. I just hope it will continue! :)

2. I am feeling better thanks to Sea Bands, which are wrist bands you wear to help with nausea (usually on a cruise!) :) But I wear them all day and they seem to help! Woohoo!

3. Matt and I finally had our Date Night for my birthday on Saturday. The Hahns watched Landon and we went to Hana Yori's, which was soooo delicious, especially the yellow egg sauce for the shrimp! :) And I didn't even feel nauseaus from the strong smells there.

4. We got our Christmas card pictures taken and Landon was such a champ. We took about 30 pictures before he got fussy so hopefully we'll be able to pick out a good one!

5. And of course, I must end with some pictures of Landon, since he is too cute!! :)

Random info...

Alright, since most of you know, I thought I might as well post that we will be adding another joyous bundle to our household at the end of May since I'm pregnant!! This way I can write post after post about how horrible I feel...just kidding :). Although being a new mother has not been anything like I thought it would be, since I'm a new mother and have "morning" sickness at the same time! :) But I'm sure it will pass and it will be even more fun spending time with Landon when I feel better. I was doing really well this past week until...

Date Night. Matt wanted to take me out for my birthday (which was Oct. 26th) but I hadn't really felt well to go out to eat. So Saturday we planned a baby-sitter for Landon and we were going to Hana Yori's for dinner, which is a fabulous restaurant where they cook the food in front of you and it is sooo delicious. Well, I was getting ready to go, Matt was mostly ready and Landon was at the Bergers and all the sudden I felt dizzy so I went to sit down and seconds later...I was throwing up. What?!?! First of all, I had never thrown up at night before and second of all, Matt and I had not been out to eat since Landon's been born. So needless to say, I got my pjs on and fell asleep at 9:30! Yeah...what a terrific date!! :) So I guess we will reschedule at another time!

Adoption News We got a letter from our attorney stating that Landon's finalization will be on Dec. 30 in Indy. So we have to drive down there with him meet with a judge and we will officially be Landon's mom and dad!! :)

Pictures Of course I couldn't end this forever long post without a few pics of the baby! :) Enjoy!
