How many people do you know that...

How many people do you know that have fallen out of a 2nd story window?! Well, my count is now at two. Most of you know what happened to my aunt Rhonda. (She is doing very well, by the way, and has already taken her first steps since the accident in December.) So last week on Tuesday I got a phone call from Will saying that I needed to get to my brother and sister in-laws right away because my two year old nephew, Parker, had fallen out of a 2nd story window. He was upstairs sleeping and the next thing everybody knew was that the other two younger boys came running in yelling "Parker fell". Now fortunately he was ok and believe it or not the only thing he walked away with were some stitches above his eye and bruises. We feel so blessed that he was ok.

This is our poor little guy. He was so brave and he only cried when they numbed the area for stitches. I just could not believe that I now knew two people this had happened to, but apparently they told my bro and sis in-law at the hospital that in the summer time they average one child a day who has done something similar to this. It's hot so windows get left open and there is either furniture too close to the window or a toy that the child can crawl on to get to the window. They call the incidents "Failure to Fly". So there is the story of poor Parker's failure to fly.

I don't understand?!

What is up with San Diego weather?!?! For the past week it has been 95 to 100 degrees and today it's raining. I just don't think I'll ever understand.

We're Still Here!

Hello blogging world,

If any of you are still checking in to see if I would ever update again, your efforts have not been in vain. There has been soooo much going on. Back on March 31st we moved in with my aunt. I never thanked everyone personally, but I am so glad for friends and family who came and made the process easier.

We also got to go on another Disneyland trip with my little bro for his first date since his 16th b-day. It was sooo crowded and I will never go on a Saturday again, but it was still a blast.

Will has been working like crazy. He's preparing to take the Senior Human Resource Management Test and was recently nominated to sit on the San Diego Employers Association Board. He hasn't been voted in yet, but I really hope it works out.


For those of you who know my sis, she is engaged and is getting married on 8/8/08. They are so cute and she is so happy.

And for the real reason that I haven't been posting lately. Drum roll please....















The anticipation is killing you isn't it?
















Ta Da!!! WE'RE PREGNANT! Now I know some of you already knew so for those of you who did the surprise is that I'm still pregnant. The doctor said that everything looks good. This sonogram was taken at 11 weeks and now I'm about 12 1/2 weeks. We are so excited and can't wait to find out what we are having.

I love the Zoo!!!

I know that most people that live in San Diego have been to the zoo about a bizillion times, but I love it. You always see something new and there is always at least one funny animal. I got to go with my good friend Michelle and her two kids a few weeks ago and we had a blast. This is Michelle and Jared and I laughed so hard when I saw how this turned out.
The goats would eat the leaves out of our hands and Jared kept running around trying to find more.
Here's Jared and I after looking at the bugs. We had such a great day.

March is Here!

Wow, I can't believe it's already March. February flew by and was full of craziness. For those of you who heard we might be moving in with my aunt so I could be her 24 hour caregiver we have decided to hold off for now, but I am currently working with her 3 days a week and I love it. I have always been interested in nursing and getting to work with someone who I care so much about is perfect. Anyway, my aunt came home on Valentine's day and this is her last day in the rehab center with some of her favorite people.

The Happiest Place on Earth

For Lahren's birthday we went to Disneyland, her most favorite place on earth.

Mom and Dad Abernathy joined us for Day 1. We had a blast running around and riding all our favorite rides.

Day 2 brought lots of rain so here we are soaking wet and sporting our ponchos. It was fantastic. The rain cleared out the park and we literally walked on every ride. WOO HOO!!

Since it was raining, and we were already wet, I convinced Will to ride Splash Mountain. The look on my face is because I suddenly realized, as we plunged to the bottom of the hill, that rain drops are much different then buckets of water flying through the air and landing right on top of us.

And you thought it was a kids ride!

Jumping on the Bandwagon

Well family and friends we decided to take the plunge and become bloggers. It seemed like it would be fun and a good way to keep everyone up to date on all the exciting things that happen in our life as secret superheros.  Of course we can't share our top secret crime fighting stories so you will have to here about all the "normal" things we do on a daily basis to cover up our secret identities.  We hope you have as much fun reading as we do creating memories to share:)
