Baby Chubb!!!

Well Cavin is now 2 and 1/2 months old and we had his 2 month check up today! Well he is 17.1 pounds!!!! Can you believe that! I cannot believe how much he weighs, Ella barely weighed 19 pounds at a year! The doctor didn't believe the weight the nurse did so she checked it again and sure enough it was about the same, minus a little pee in the diaper! Oh my he is a cute chubby baby! No wonder my arm is already breaking when I carry him in his carrier! I don't think he will be in it for a whole year, that's for sure! Anyway, he is such a good baby and really happy, so we will keep our little Rollie pollie!

Go Germany!!

We have been watching a lot of soccer recently because of the Euro2008 and we love it. We are so excited that Germany is in the final match! We just wanted to make a shout out to all those watching.... cheer for Germany!!!

Blessing Day Extravaganza!

We are excited to report about Cavins blessing. Everything went wonderfully and it was so nice to have the family there. Of course, I would have loved to have my brothers and all of Ragnar's sisters, but we were exited for the family who could come. It's a little hard to get everyone in one place! My parents and sisters came on Wednesday and we just hung out, watched movies, played games, you know relaxed. It was great. On Sunday we saw Ragnar's parents and sisters family. It was nice. My Aunt Becky's family came and so did Aunt Jana and some friends, it was great. The blessing circle was big and because Cavin is so chubby, I think it was necessary. All went well and we appreciated the support. Cavin did great!

Dress UP!!

Life as a little girl must be wonderful! Ella was having fun playing dress up and watching Cinderella. She loves purses and necklaces and tutus and everything else that is girly. We love our little girl!!

A Weekend in Vernal!

This weekend we went to visit my grandparents in Vernal, UT. Both my moms parents and my fathers parents live there and it was nice to visit. Ragnars job doesn't permit being able to really leave to go on a 4 hour drive, so I was grateful he took a couple days and we got to see my family. Ella loved Grandma Walls porch and kept rearranging the furniture. She was pretty grumpy the last day as you can tell from one of the pictures, but we enjoyed visiting them. We wish we lived closer! It was also my Grandma Haws' 71st birthday and we got to see that side of the family, but I forgot to bring the camera, so no pictures there. It was good to get away for a few days though! We hope someday Ragnar has a job where he doesn't have to work weekends.

Like Father Like Son!

Not much has been happening at the Hartzheim home! We are just enjoying the warmer weather! It's been raining this week though, so Ella has been enjoying the tunnel and Cavin has been snoozing! This picture of Cavin reminded me of Ragnar. He is just like his daddy, he loves food and has a little pot belly like papa! (Although Ragnars is slowly going away as he is on an exercise program again!...yeah!!!) Anyway,we are heading to Vernal this weekend to see our grandparents and we are excited to see them. A week after that Ragnars parents and mine will be here to share in Cavins blessing day. We are so excited.

Picture Fun!!

Here is our photo shoot at JCPenny. It sure was fun.. I hope you enjoy!
