Wow! I am a mother of a 2 and 1/2 year old and 2 month old! My how the time flies when you have children!
Dakota is 2.5 and is a busy boy! He loves playing with cars and even more loves watching his daddy race cars. Race days are the only days that child sits! Kota cheers his daddy and Uncle Buzz on in the bleachers. He is their biggest fan! His next favorite thing is to get dirty! It never fails a pile of dirt could be 100 yards away and he would spot it. That one mud puddle....he jumps in it! I guess it is a boy thing!
Colten is 2 months already! He is so sweet! I never get anything done because I could cuddle him all day long! He is such a happy baby! He is smiling more and more each day and is beginning to grasp at things. The best thing is that at 2 months old he is sleeping through the night! He usually goes to bed around 9:00 and wakes up around 5 or 6 and then it is back to bed for a few more hours! I think he sleeps so good because he eats so good. He is 13 lbs 11 oz coming in at the 90th percentile mark! Same goes for his length!
I love my boys sooo much! God knew exactly what two to give me! I thank him everyday for my two precious gifts!

Terrible Two's
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! I have a two year old that thinks he runs this household! Please tell me I am not the only one with this problem! Dakota just does not want to listen and continues to act out. Also, tell me what is up with the constant whining!!! Thank goodness I love soooooo much!

A Different World
Wow! It has been a long time since I have posted! I guess that is what a new addition to the family will do to you! Colten Scott Breuker was born on July 9, 2009 at 9:18 in the morning via c-section. He weighed 8 lbs 5 oz and was 21 inches long. He is absolutely perfect! When he was born he looked exactly like Dakota, but now that he is almost 6 weeks old he is looking like himself! LOL!
We have been though a lot since Colten has been born. When he was a week old we ended back in the hospital with an infection that was in his fingers and toes. He spent 48 hours in the hospital and they ran antibiotics through him. They had to put the IV in his scalp! It was not a fun time for Bryan and I. You never want to see your children go through pain! The antibiotics seemed to help!
Dakota loves being a big brother! He definitely has his moments, but for the most part he is enjoying Colten! Dakota looks so big to us now! He talks and acts like a big boy! The other night he told his daddy, "Bryan Breuker you stop!" We laughed so hard! Dakota loves Summer. He has lots of fun playing at Aunt Kim and Uncle Jer's. He loves their monkey pool and slip N slide! We are really bummed that summer is coming to an end.
With summer coming to an end that also means I need to head back to work! This maternity leave has gone so fast. I think because we have been so busy! I actually think going back to work may slow our schedule down a bit.
My goal is to keep on this blog, keep up on my scrapbooking, and to enjoy my family ( no matter how busy I get!)

The Waiting Game
Only two more weeks! I am ready now! It is definitely time for baby #2 to make his appearance. It is way to hot and I can no longer handle sitting in my own sweat, watching my toes swell up like sausages! The worst thing is that our central air unit took a dump tonight. It is never ending around here!
I had a doctor appointment yesterday. The only good news he gave me was the head was definitely down. Of course he didn't check me....AAHHHHHH! He figures since we are already scheduled a c-section that it would just be a bonus if we went early.
I was hoping to get to at least the 4th of July because I have a cute red, white and blue shirt but I am changing my mind! I will keep you posted on any progress!

1 more month
I can not believe Baby Boy #2 will be here in 4 weeks! We are slowly getting ready. I have the nursery organized, the newborn clothes all washed, and the breast pump ready to go! I bought a Moby Wrap from the Sling Shack...I am sooooo excited to put my new baby boy in it. I found my double stroller and I am hoping to pick it up from Target this weekend.
I think a little bit of nesting set in this past week. I began to do some organizing and pitching away of unnecessary things. Time to clean house! I actually did that too! I dusted, vacuumed, scrubbed the main floor. All the bedding is washed too. Go me!
However, I am not prepared on the work end of the spectrum! I have sooooo much to do before I leave on maternity leave. It has been crazy trying to move a center!
As much as I am ready for Baby #2 to arrive I am actually going to miss being pregnant! I love being pregnant! I know I sometimes complain, but I am truly going to miss all those kicks and movements I feel in my belly! I think I will even miss my maternity clothes! LOL! I don't know what it is but there is just something so special and neat about being pregnant.

Memorial Weekend
What a great holiday weekend we had. This year we decided to go camping. It was lots of fun! We camped at Yogi Bear with the Smit and Weber families! It was nice to get away from home for a long weekend. The children had so much fun playing with each other. We played at the park, went swimming, and sat by the campfire! Dakota loved the Yogi dance party the best! He also got to ride in a go-cart with Bryan. They raced around the track with Jer and Jackson! We had great weather and even got some color! However, those mosquitoes we could have done without!!!
On Monday we took Dakota over to my parents to go fishing in their pond. He was so excited to use his new pole and net. He didn't catch any fish but did get a few frogs and tadpoles. We were also lucky enough to see two huge snapping turtles! Monday night we went for a cookout at the Fregos! The kids played on the swing set and had so much fun chasing each other around the yard. It was a great holiday weekend!

vacation
After a great vacation it is back to the real life! Dakota and I had a great trip to Branson. It took us 12 hours each way to get there, but we made it. We went with my parents to meet up with my brother, his wife and the girls! It was great seeing them again! Dakota had so much fun playing with his cousins. We did not have the nicest weather, but we stayed busy by going to a show and seeing the butterfly exhibit.
Dakota did very well during the long car ride.....for a 2 year old with no sit in him that is! LOL! We kept him bust with movies, toys, and food. I took the driving time to get caught up on my sleep! I know that there will be a lack of it coming in the very near future!
After my 30 week appointment today I found out that I actually only have 9 weeks left! Yikes! That is really not that much time and I have a lot of things to get done! We have scheduled a c-section for the second week in July. However, Bryan thinks this baby is going to come before then. Lets hope not!
We have also been enjoying all the great Tulip Time festivities around town. We watched the Dutch Dancers on Monday and Tuesday. Of course we could not pass up the junk food! All I need yet to satisfy all my cravings is a Carmel apple. I am thinking Kota and I might head downtown for the children's parade tomorrow. It is a toss up. Do I give up a nap or head down town?
