Happy New Year

It's been a busy couple months so I hope you'll forgive us for not updating the blog.  With a new year, comes a new resolution to share our lives a little more frequently with those important to us.  Hopefully we'll keep it up...

That said, the holidays were wonderful for us.  I think we are finally done with visitors for a few months now so we are looking forward to settling into a solid routine with the kids, hopefully that means the littlest will start sleeping through the night soon.

Website Changes

I'm sure many of you have noticed that we really aren't using karskofamily.com anymore.  Our subscription for the website and domain name is expiring soon and we will not renewing it.  If you have not done so, make sure you have bookmarked this blog so you can continue to see our updates. 

Happy Anniversary

Can you believe it's been 6 years?  I sure haven't!  Last night a friend graciously hung out with Adam while Nick and I got some time to ourselves and an uninterrupted meal to boot.  The restaurant happened to be at the marina close to our house so we were able to check out some pretty nice boats, including a few Scots.  Some of the Scots were in better shape than others.  If anyone is looking to restore a pretty beat up Flying Scot that isn't rigged for racing, I know of a few you could probably acquire.  We did run into a beautiful new one, 5926 if I recall correctly.  She looked wonderful with her red waterline. 

When we came home I went up to give Adam a kiss goodnight and give him his doggy.  Not sure how he didn't throw a hissy fit without his dog, but that's another story all together.  I thought he was asleep, but he was still awake a little and called for me as I left the room.  When he saw me he was so excited and proceeded to say, "You came back!"  It about broke my heart that he thought I would leave him forever, but his excitement to see me was so cute, I couldn't help but snuggle up with him for a few minutes while he finally drifted off to sleep. 

Confirmed...

We have a confirmed human growing in leaps and bounds right now.  In case you haven't heard the human happens to male genitalia.  At the risk of showing of the little guys pieces here is the proof!

There's big news afoot..

There is some big news spreading around the Karsko household.  There are two more feet arriving in just a few short months, at least it feels like just a few short months.

That's right, we are expecting and are due in October! We couldn't be happier to add another addition to the family.  Looking forward to October and beyond.  Adam is excited to be a big brother, but is enjoying lots of special time with mommy and daddy before baby arrives. 

Hello Spring!

I think it's safe to say that spring has officially sprung here.  Of course I don't think we have much of a thaw out from as this winter was so mild. 

Here is Adam playing in the only snow we got this winter.  Pretty depressing if you ask me.  Hopefully next year we'll get more so Adam can have some fun with the sled he got for Christmas.  Until then, bring on the warm weather!

I suppose for us that means some spring cleaning and maintenance we need to do.  It's hard to imagine we have already been in the new house for a quarter of a year.  Before we know it, it will be many more years on top of that.  After the holidays, we've kept a relatively low profile, but now that spring is here we are picking up in our fun fill activities between trips and visitors this spring and summer is shaping up to be a fun one.  We are looking forward to seeing everyone soon!

Happy Birthday Big Boy!

Happy Birthday Celebration at School

A certain someone is turning 2 today!  Mommy and daddy couldn't be more proud of our little guy.  A lot has happened in the last year. 

Mommy finally stopped nursing.

Our first trip to the beach

Our big move.

Adam learned to use the potty.

Then moved into his big boy bed.

We went from a few words to sentences like, "No want Jesus!" (In the middle of a silent church.)

We can't wait to see what next year has to offer us...let the new challenges start, we're ready for them and all the fun we have in store a long with them.
