A Year Ago

 
 
There is not much to blog about currently so I decided to blog about what Koen was like a year ago. These pics where taken a year ago and it is fun to see how much he has changed. He had to stand on a chair to shoot his basketball in the hoop. Now he had no trouble making it in the hoop, he even slams dunks it.

Christmas Eve Goodies

 

 

On Christmas Eve I was in charge of making a treat for our family party. I thought this would be the perfect time to announce we were going to have a baby. I ordered the personalized m&m's with the words Shanny's(that's all that would fit) pregnant and baby due June 29. For my treat a strategically placed the m&m's in place and took them to the party. We set them out at dessert time and sat back and waited to see who would find them first. A couple minutes later my sister in law Michelle came running in saying Shannon's pregnant and I could hear everyone saying "What?." It was a fun way to announce it. It was a very fun and memorial evening. For family we didn't see on Christmas we sent them Christmas cards with the saying from the previous post. It was fun to wait for the phone calls from the card.

Merry Christmas

Santa Claus

 
This is Koen sitting on Santa's lap at the Sheriff's Christmas Party. He was ok with Santa, but would not tell Santa what his wanted. I hope Santa finds a way to know what he wants.

O Christmas Tree

 
We broke down and bought a fake tree this year. I told myself I would never buy one. The last couple of years our tree would die a week before Christmas and be a fire hazard. Koen loves to pull up his chair and just sit and stare at it.

October 2009

 
Koen had a fun time in the month of October. He had a great time going to the pumpkin patch to pick out a pumpkin. He thought it was great that he could us a wheelbarrow to take his pumpkin to the car. I think the best part for him was riding the tractors. He wasn't too into carving pumpkins he wanted to have to knife to himself. Koen loved to go trick or treating. He thought is was great to get candy.
