Long time.. no updates... and finally...

So, I was alerted recently that I have not updated this site in a while... hmmm.... appears to be true!.

Anyway, some simple updates. We had the baby! WOOHOO!.. Our little turd monkey is an amazing little thing. As if we didn't have enough kids, this one sure has made his mark on our lives... He is now a year old... (geez, it has been a long time since the last update!)... One year old and still an amazing child.

I lost father of the year award (was never really in the running).. for not having any or very many pictures of him on my computer, however... here is what I have of him....This is not all that I have of him HAHA... but I will put more of the famdam and whatever else I can think of!..

Here you can see where he gets his good looks!


Having Lunch!


His big sister.. we appreciate her sooo much!


Grandmas Hot Tub... He absolutely Loves the water!


Will post more on topic and off topic later...

TTFN!

Okay... so better late than never huh?...

This is the reason we ultimately started this post, it was to document the pregnancy and to keep you all abreast (no pun intended)... of the pregnancy... Here are some pretty recent pics and I will add more as the months go on... This first one was to get a profiled picture of her belly and was taken in Italy... the pointing arrow was a complete fluke and had I noticed it before I took the picture, it would've been pointing at her belly, not her... uh.... anyway.... you get the picture.... ;)



These are more recent... within the last few days...




We did find out that this baby is a boy! great ultrasound pictures!.

Wow!. Sorry bout the delay in getting things posted, just haven't been myself lately. Anyways... I'll try and catch you up since the last post.

Italy..... Such an amazing place... The atmosphere, the company, the people.. simply amazing!

We spent 2 weeks there, did almost everything that needs to be done or seen.

We stayed at Via San Pio in Rome and then Villa Montignoso in Tuscany, just outside of San Gimingano WOW!.. Everywhere we stayed and everything we did was surreal. We loved every minute of it. I have tons and tons of pictures and some movies from the trip, so if you are family, please feel free to leave a comment and make a request.. ;).. I'll see what I can do!... Here's a couple more from the trip!...
















Here is where we stayed in Tuscany!....

Tiff and Todd....

Wow... it's been a year since the inception of marriage for these 2... They are undeniably in love, inexplicably insane, and unforgettably loved by all.... I really mean it you guys!... ;)....


While I don't have the story of how they met, or where, I like to think it was a chance meeting... something romantic... straight out of a novel... but it's most likely they met in high school or something, I take nothing away from that, as that as well can be romantic..... can't it?...HA!..



Anyways, blogging this part of TNT is an important part of this family type blog, while it seems that I don't have enough time to update this everyday, I do what I can.

This part kind of illustrates the perpetual (right word) changing of not just our lives, but the lives of those that encompass us, surround us, and bring a whole new light to otherwise ambiguous situations.... right TM?... LOL!.. Here they are in all their beauty, surrounded by family, friends and loved ones that join together to bear witness to the creation of a single body, where 2 people in love, become known as 1. They just surpassed one year of marriage and I, We, and everyone wishes them the very best that life has to offer....

Words were spoken to me today that are very true.... from a person that I sometimes take for granted.... I hope she knows who she is... and I quote "you take all the simplicity out of life"... I refuse to go into details about this quote or why, but after reading that same line at least 100 times... I realized, she's right (as is usually the case)... Life is not as complicated as we tend to make it... it is I or we that make life unrealistic in that we take simple solutions and turn them into huge mathematical equations that no one, really understands.... When there is a simple solution, use it... If there is not a simple solution... Find one.. It's seems easier to make things harder than they really are which is human nature, but we all posses the power and ability to see how simple it really can be... just look, think, and listen.... you'll find it... (Thanks Chelle)...



My resolution for this post?..... I resolve to make life more simple... easy huh?... can it be done..... I implore you.... tune in next time.... find out if simplicity is as simple as it sounds....


To TNT.... may your lives be blessed, you souls entwined, your spirits saturated with love and affection from each other forever and always.... Happy belated anniversary you guys!...

To our family that reads this:.... TTFN!

Most of who we are....

O




OK, so here we are... All of us... All of these pictures have been taken within the last year. All in different locations and times. We will continue to post family pictures, articles, publishings, screen plays, music, videos... and whatever else we are given to post....

Such a beautiful group of people.... Thanks T for the pic!

The pregnancy pictures will follow shortly... Please feel free to leave comments and make suggestions!... If you are family or friends, know that we love you guys!..

TTFN!!!

So it begins....

We are pregnant!... that's right.... pregnant! Well, she is anyway.

We are a couple of crazy kids creating new life that is both exciting and scary! Why, you ask? Well, the excitement stems from the new life creation, something as wonderful as this to add to our already extended, rather large family.

I, the male part, am convinced that my destiny is to be with this woman for the rest of my life, which, if I keep up the way that I am, could be relatively short! So, I resolve to change and be everything that I need to be, and do everything that needs to be done to realize my destiny!

My plan here is to offer this pictorial not from conception mind you... but after the fact, and to allow all friends and family from all over the world....(you know who you are).... to take part in the everchanging, everyday normal life. I will post pictures of M so that you can see the progress.

This blog will be dedicated to Michelle, and our 8 kids including our new baby... (that's alot)... and to the rest of the family that may care to bear witness...

Feel free to leave comments, or drop us a line...

TTFN!!!!
