Sadi turns 2!

Well, we are still pregnant and our little girl got to have a very special day with all of our neighbors at the pool. Sadi woke up and got to put on her princess crown and then came downstairs to her new John Deere Gator:) Don't ask, it was all daddy's doing:) Dakota of course was right there with her! I made her favorite breakfast, french toast and bacon then we hung out in the house because it is so HOT here until her party. We had a pool party with all our neighbors, pizza, watermellon and cake and it was perfect!! The kids and parents had a good time. My angels are now napping and I think I might do some last minute cleaning before my mother comes tomorrow.

We are still on schedule for baby on Tuesday morning at 9:30 so it is officially around the corner now. We can't wait and feel truely blessed right now.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SADI!!!

We are getting closer:)

So lately I felt really busy, or just trying to keep myself really busy so that I don't have time to think about the 3 weeks that I have left until Little Boy Pattee joins us. Yesterday Dakota had his last soccer game of the season and had a soccer party in the park afterwards:) He was so happy that he got to take home a trophy and is very proud of it in his room! On a sad note, he fed his fish to much food this week and Sparky & Bandaid went to heaven:( Dakota promised to not touch the food again so I told him we would get him two more fish because Kota & Johnny are a little lonely.

Dakota will start T-ball next week and is really excited for it:) There is not a whole lot of running involved in t-ball so maybe this will be his sport! He seems to hit the crap out of the ball both ways and loves to play in the yard so hopefully he loves practice. We were able to get him on the same team as Kenner so he is excited about that.

Sadi can almost talk as well as Dakota right now. She is for sure our little spit fire and full of energy. She has done great moving into the big girl bed, it is just the process of laying her down to sleep that is a little long so we are working on it:)

Nolan is still really busy with work, which is going really well for him. He just went on a work trip to Phenoix last week, but that should be his last trip now until the Baby comes so that will be nice.

Baby is doing great, I have weekly ultrasounds and weekly stress tests which I have passed with flying colors. He had a nice growth spurt around 31 weeks and they were thinking about letting me go at 38 weeks, but since has slowed down and so have I with growth so they have decided to keep him in until 39 weeks, June 15th!! So Sadi will turn 2 on the 12th and this little guy will join us soon after! And then on the 18th Nolan and I will be celebrating 5 years of marital bliss:) Hard to believe it will already be 5 years.

I am doing great, keeping myself busy with the kids. I feel a bit older now that I drive a mini van but it has been such a nice vehical with the kids that I soon got over that feeling:) But, hope to update soon, Papa Huinker celebrates his 50th Birthday next week on the 27th so be sure to wish his a Happy Birthday!! Take care and talk to ya'll soon:)

Oh yah, hope you enjoyed the pictures, there are more at

Its been a while since the last blog. We've experienced the worst winter in years...(pretty much a joke compared to Iowa weather though), and now we are experiencing the worst flooding in years. Someone's house floated down the interstate about 8 miles from our house yesterday!

Other than the rotten weather, the last two days its been absolutely beautiful down here. We have an amazing neighborhood of transplants from other states. Everyone is soo nice! Nolan is pretty satisfied as there is always someone that is ready to have a cold one with him after work! The kids have been enjoying Dakota's soccer games, practices, and playing with the neighborhood kids. I must say we are loving it down here!

Only 6 more weeks until the little man arrives....Can't wait! We have already have a couple neighbors arguing over who gets to watch the kids and baby sit for us...I must say that we are excited by the help! Very wonderful people in the neighborhood that all look out for one another! Love you all!

The Pattee Family!

Soccer season has started!!

Well, Nolan has his first official practice and had to coach to top it off:) Dakota had a blast and didn't want to leave. I made cookies for treats and everything went really well considering none of the boys have EVER played soccer. Now they have their first game already next week:)

New HOuse!

Yeah, we can't wait for our new house. We are starting to feel like the house hunting process was going to go on forever, but we found a happy ending to the search. We bought a beautiful house in Nolensville, TN, yes you read that correct!! Nolan thinkings it's a sign. But, we have 3 weeks till they close, in the meantime they are putting in a fence, replacing the carpet, finishing the toy-room upstairs and putting in another bathroom. We close on the 22 and will move into our new house with all of our belongings the week after Easter because we go on our cruise for Nolan's work the last week of March. Can't wait!!
