Trying to play blog catch up!

Wow, where did October go? Well ours was spent moving out of our first house. We moved out last Wednesday, October 27th. We moved into a rental house until our new home is ready in March. We are finally some what adjusted and have all the boxes unpacked and put away. It's been kinda different living here, but fun since it's right in the middle of Edmond and within walking distance of so many things. There is a park at either end of our street which Gage and I have frequented several times already. In the midst of moving, we celebrated Halloween! (sorry about my lack of pictures. I had to take them with my phone, cause the camera was packed in a box which we hadn't unpacked at the time.) Before we moved, we managed to carve a pumpkin, which little man was so into. A tradition that I am sure will continue for the rest of his life at home. Gage really enjoyed Halloween this year, and actually got the concept of saying "Trick or Treat" (which he would say so quietly you could barely hear him) and he loved all the candy! He was a fire fighter for his party at school, and he was a spider for a Halloween birthday party we attended, and trick or treating. He was so cute as both.

Yesterday, we went to the new house and it has a roof! Yay! We are so excited, and it was so cool to actually walk around in the house and be able to tell what each room was. Gage really could have cared less about his room, because there was a tractor on the next lot, and he was off to the races, to go "rive" (drive) it!! Today, we spent so much needed quality time as a family on the Golf Course. We have never taken Gage, but we thought he would enjoy it and have fun driving the cart. Boy were we right!! He had so much fun! He loved driving the cart with Daddy and also getting to pull the flag, when Daddy would putt! So crazy how grown up he is these days. He's no longer a baby, but a "ig boy" (big boy as he would say)
We are looking forward to the cooler weather and holiday's coming up, and we know that these memories will be very special to us as we wait the impending arrival of our little daughter Stella Jane!! (Yes, she has a name)- Can't believe I am a little over 6 months pregnant! Time flies!
Here are a few pics of all our activities over the last few weeks!

October Fun!

Well October has started out with big bang!! The Hansberger's have been very busy with fun activities. The first weekend in October, we went to Thomas the Train at the Oklahoma Railway museum. It was a beautiful fall weekend, and a great time had by all. We really enjoyed getting to hang out as a family.

This weekend, we took Gage to the pumpkin patch. He was much more into the tractors around the place, than the petting zoo, or pumpkins. We spent the majority of our time, pretending to drive the old John Deere tractors around the patch. We got some good pics however! The next day we attended Noah's third birthday at Jumping Craze. Gage had a great time jumping in all the different things with his Daddy! Mom sat this one out!

On top of all our fun activities, we SOLD OUR HOUSE! We close on October 29th, and move to a rental house for six months until our new house is completed. We have been so busy, packing, cleaning out, and getting ready for the move. Ahhh, sometimes I think we are crazy but I know this is the best thing! Much better than having two mortgages in March!

Here are some pics of all our activities!

Craig and Molly's Wedding and other news!

Last week we went to South Carolina to celebrate Craig (my brother) and Molly's wedding. They got married on Friday, on the boardwalk, right on the beach in Isle of Palms. Daniel, Gage and I flew in Wednesday night and got to enjoy a few days on the beach. This was Gage's first time to the beach, and he was not ok with the water. He loved, playing in the sand but wouldn't have anything to do with the ocean.
He was also the ring bearer in the wedding, but didn't really play his part well. In fact he refused to walk down the aisle so mama had to carry him. It all turned out ok, and he was dressed so cute. After the wedding, we had a babysitter for Gage so Daniel and I could enjoy some adult time without a toddler running around. It was such a nice wedding and we were so happy to be a part of it.
On Saturday, we rented bikes and toured the beach and area on bike. It was such a blast, and Gage was in Heaven. He just loved the bikes and would wave and say "HI" to everyone we past. On Saturday night, we enjoyed a sunset cruise on the Harbor. It was BEAUTIFUL! We had such a nice relaxing time and it was a great way to end our summer!!
On another note.... I meant to post this news a while ago, but things have been so hectic. The Hansberger family is welcoming a baby GIRL into the family on February 15, 2011. We are so excited for the addition of a girl to our family. Bring on the pink shopping and bows!!

Here are a few pics from our trip to South Carolina (sorry they are in backwards order):

Entertaining a Toddler!

Sorry it's take me forever to update the blog. I have been pretty sick/serious lack of energy with baby #2 and Gage has not been in mother's day out for the last two months. But I promise as things get back into a routine, so will the blogging! I was trying to find a way to entertain him inside while it was raining, so I pulled out some of my old teaching tricks. We did potato prints. I took a potato, cut it in half and then carved out different shapes, then dip in paint and stamp. The potatoes are great for little toddler hands to pick up and stamp. Also good when working on patterns or colors. Anyway, Gage had a great time and managed to get pretty messy! Here are a few pictures of the fun!

Big news from the Hansberger Household!

We are expecting!!! Baby number 2 is due February 22, 2011 and we couldn't be more excited! Gage is going to be such a wonderful big brother!
