Coming Soon!

Here is an ultrasound picture of our baby. What a cute little profile! We are so excited to have another little miracle on the way. Our due date is February 9. We find out what we are having in about 2 weeks. We will keep you all updated.

Jim's 33rd Birthday

Jim turned 33 this August. We had a BBQ at our house for him, with some family and friends.

This is Jim with his brother's and his Nana.

The kids all had fun playing at the birthday party!
Aiden loven' on daddy after he gave him his present.

Camping and Boating in Donnelly

We went camping in Donnelly for the 4th of July. We took the boat out that evening and watched the fireworks on the lake. It was beautiful!

This is Aiden and his little girlfriend Madelynn. Aiden and Madelynn just love each other. Madelynn lives right next door to us, so her and Aiden get to play together often. Aiden trying out his new lightening McQueen fishing pole.

Fun in the sun

Fun times in Salmon, ID

This is the latest addition to the Olson family. Her name is Wiggles. She is a miniature pot belly pig. She was so cute I asked Jim if we could get one to keep in our back yard, but he informed me that our subdivision doesn't allow farm animals. Sounds like an excuse to me :)

We all went fishing one evening. No one was lucky enough to catch any fish.

Aiden likes to wear poppy's dirty, old cowboy hat!



Yes, that is a big, beautiful diamond on Heather's finger! Heather and Lance got engaged while we were in Salmon. We were so excited for them. None of us realized how romantic Lance was:) They are planning on getting married next August! That evening I was explaining to Aiden what getting engaged met. I told him that Heather and Lance would get married like mommy and daddy and then have babies someday. We went upstairs and Aiden said "Grammy, aunt Heather is having a baby". He just skipped ahead a few years!

Silly questions!

One morning while we were camping,
Aiden was really studying uncle Ron's tattoos. Very seriously he asked "uncle Ron did baby Ryian color on your arm?" It was pretty funny. It was the only logical reason Aiden could come up with for Ron to have "paint" on his arms.

Our little cowboy

Here is our little cowboy in training. He was pretending to ride his horse Spook. Aiden just loves animals, which I am glad because his dad and I do too. He has a blast at the ranch in Salmon!
This was branding weekend in Salmon, so of course he had to dress up like a cowboy.
This is the real horse Spook.
This is poppy's new colt. Aiden named him Lightening Macqueen, but I think poppy will also call him Gus.
This is aunt Heather's new baby Arther. Arther's moma died right after he was born, so Heather has been bottle feeding him. I have to say Arther is pretty smart he has learned to use the doggy door and is pretty much potty trained.

Cars, cars, and more cars!

Aiden loves the cars from the disney movie, Cars. He has around 30 cars characters and most of them go everywhere with us. He can tell you the name of each car. He is very protective of his cars, so sharing is always an issue, but he is working on it.
Aiden is so exited here because grandma Val and Poppy sent him a cars character, Mac, in the mail.

Aiden had to pack his cars around in his backpack when we were in Lagoon.

Snack time- chocolate bananas

Aiden's favorite snack is chocolate and bananas. Yummy! We have to take his shirt off for this snack, it is a messy one.

Potty Trained!

Aiden is now potty trained. We were lucky because he was so easy, he got the hang of it right away. We were out talking to our neigbors and looked over and Aiden had decided to "water my plants", I'm not sure why but it seems little boys have something for peeing outside!
