Mt. Spokane

Friday night, Dave and Jess invited us up to their condo at Mt. Spokane to spend the night since the kids had an early race Saturday morning.  I always know it is going to be fun but I also know there will be little sleep involved!  Matthew gets really excited to play with Max and Jack and they stayed up late playing video games.  Apparently, Jack doesn't require a lot of sleep because I heard him get up Saturday morning about 4am to play video games.  He woke Matthew up to play with him and then Dave got them back to sleep.  Needless to say, they were pretty tired when we woke them up at 7am to get ready to race.  Matthew did pretty well for his first official race and the fact that the snow was like an ice rink (due to the fact that it hadn't snowed in so long).  We captured it on video but I need to figure out how to upload it to the computer.  We had tickets to the GU game Saturday night so we packed it up and headed home.  Both the kids fell asleep in the car and continued to sleep and Chris and I got ready for the game.  (Hence the picture) When we went to put them back in the car to drop them at Oma and Opa's all hell broke loose.  Maggie woke up crying (and if you know Maggie her cry is like a death wail), then Matthew woke up crying and covering his ears because Maggie was crying.  It was all due to the fact that they were overly tired, but the point of the story is that I was cracking up in the car and I said to Chris "Poor Sparky doesn't have a chance in hell with these two!"  I can't even imagine 3 kids crying in the car!  I guess it will be our reality soon:)  People have been asking me how I have been feeling and honestly, I have been more sick than I was with Matthew but WAY less sick than I was with Maggie.  It makes me wonder about Sparky's personality and how he/she will fit-in in our family!  I get more excited every day to meet this little person!  I just hope Sparky is a great sleeper or I will have to get some headphones!  Hahaha
