Here I am, about 26 weeks pregnant and feeling great! I literally forget that I'm pregnant most of the time. Maybe because the second time around I don't have time to think about everything because there is a little person keeping me very busy!!!! We have decided not to find out what we are having, we love the surprise. We honestly don't care either way, just praying for a healthy baby. Cohen is clueless he is going to have a new baby brother or sister but he does love my belly button right now! It's hard for me to imagine my life with two babies. I love spending all my time with Cohen and I know a newborn is going to change that. Everyone tells me it will come naturally and I will fall in love with baby number two just like I fell in love with my first.

Wow, where has the summer gone? We have been enjoying the sunny weather when we have it. Cohen loves to be outside and in the water! We packed a picnic and went to Point Defiance park for the day and had a great time running around and feeding the ducks. He is almost seventeen months old and is so much fun. I love this age and wish I could freeze time.

Our first attempt at camping. Chris wanted to go so badly last year but camping with a new baby just didn't sound fun to me! We found a great little spot right on the river and set everything up. Cohen loved going in and out of the tent and really loved bouncing on our blow up mattress! We spent most of the day on the river throwing rocks and trying to keep him from jumping in. After dinner we started a fire and when Chris took the garbage to the dump he noticed a "no campfire" sign. Half the fun of camping is the fire so by 7 o'clock it was getting cold and the bugs were coming out so we decided to pack up and come home. Luckily we were only and hour and a half away from home. It was a great day trip and were hoping to get a real camping trip in before summer is over.
