Fun with Cousins

While I was not ready to wake up at 6:30 this morning with Alexa I have woken up a little refreshed. I guess that is what a little bit of activity and adult contact will do for you! Carson and I began a Co-ed softball league last night. Although it was just practice and all I want out of it is some fun, I think we have a pretty good team! Carson and I enjoyed ourselves as well!! I hope this is the kick start for me to start getting my but back in gear! It has definitely been too long. And considering Carson bought me an elliptical 2 years ago I do not have any excuses other than just being lazy!!!

Alexa is doing well, she is 7.5 months old now, I cannot believe she has grown so much since August! She is really getting the itch to move lately, but has not quite figured it out yet! She has two little teeth and working on a few more. I cannot wait for the weather to get nice so we can play outside more!

I do not have any pics to upload at this time, but I should have full access to all my pics soon and be able to post more often (as long as I find the time!)

Wish me luck as I attempt to get back in shape and post more often on our blog! :)

37 Weeks and Baby Room

2009-07-22T15:24:00.003-04:00

I hit 37 weeks on Saturday - all is going well.

We finally got the dresser to go with the rest of our baby furniture. We now have the room all set up and ready for Alexa when she feels it is time to join us.

The Baby Room Begins...

2009-06-29T17:07:00.009-04:00

Thank you Jeff for helping Carson move furniture on Saturday. We were able to get started on the baby room on Sunday!!! Carson put the crib together and we were able to dress it with the bedding we had bought.

Thank you Carson for putting all the furniture together. Only one more piece to go, I think. Hopefully we will get the dresser for Alexa's room this week!

We are quite pleased with how the crib looks with the bedding we chose. We do not have everything set up yet but, so far we like how it is looking!

Below: We had two curious cats who monitored how we began decorating the room as well as the pictures we were taking.

More pics to come as we continue to decorate and get the rest of the furniture; dresser & rocking chair.

Still Waiting...

2009-06-15T18:54:00.004-04:00

We got 2 of 3 pieces of the furniture for the baby room the end of last week. Carson has put the changing table together thus far... we have to move other furniture before we can really put together anymore!

We are down to the final 2 months, we cannot wait to meet Alexa Paige Fischer.

I will post pics of her room soon, I hope!!! :)

Baby Girl

2009-05-14T16:29:00.002-04:00

Our little girl continues to grow... a couple weeks ago we got a pic of her face during a quick sonogram to check fluid levels! We cannot wait to meet her - just over 12 more weeks to go!

22 Weeks and Counting!!!

2009-04-05T10:57:00.004-04:00

Can you tell we are both rather excited?!

It's a GIRL!

2009-03-12T20:27:00.004-04:00

Here are a few pictures from the sonogram on Tuesday where we found out we are having a girl! We hope you enjoy them as much as we do! :)

This is a profile of our little girl.

This is one of her face and little hands.
And lastly, here is a picture of her little foot.

We are still alive and well, very well!

It has been a couple months since I last updated our blog with the latest and greatest in our lives. We have traveled to Knoxville three times since the last post.

1. We drove in for Thanksgiving. It was great to see everyone for it had been several months. I also got to meet my newest nephew Jakob Swisshelm for the first time - boy is he a cutie! While we were in for Thanksgiving we also we present for both Jakob and Cole's Baptisms. Both Carson and I are now Godparents.
Before making it to Knoxville we took a mini detour to Lexington to see some friends. We stayed with my friend Michelle, who I had not seen in probably close to 2 years and got to meet her son Jackson. We had so much fun! It's times like those are when I really want to live closer to family and friends!

2. Mid December we took a quick weekend trip to Atlanta (Carson had to meet a client). We were able to stay and visit with our friends James and Becky and meet their sweet baby girl Addison.

3. Shortly after returning home we packed our bags again and drove to Knoxville for Christmas. It was nice to hang out and visit! While in for Christmas we were able to have a couple visits with my Grandmother who was in the hospital at the time. Those were good visits.

4. Back home we had a quick visit from Carson's parent's who came in unexpectedly due to the sudden death of John's brother. We were able to go with them to the viewing and church service in his memory.

5. Just a couple weeks later we packed our bags again and headed for Knoxville. This time we were in town for my Grandmothers funeral.

Now back in Maryland we are trying to settle in for a bit and get back to our regular routines. Although this has been tough considering we have had snow and ice that kept us in for a few days! Good thing Carson can work from home and not have to use his vacation days!

During this time we have also enjoyed being able to pass along our good news to friends and family - Carson and I are expecting our first child in August!

Carson's Birthday & Horseback Riding

2008-11-17T22:43:00.004-05:00

We celebrated Carson's Birthday earlier this month. He was pretty happy as he was able to get his speakers to finish off his surround sound set up. (At least as far as speakers go, I am sure there is some other technical thing on his never ending list!)
:)

Above: Carson with one of the speakers; checking it out.

He hung them as fast as he could!! They look pretty good in white cause they do not stand out for the ceiling or wall!! :)

Carson opening other presents.

More presents, he must have been a good boy this year! :)

This fall we have been taking Horseback Riding lessons for fun. I finally remembered to take the camera with us although we did not get may pics as it was getting dark. If the weather holds out on us we are going to go on a trail ride on Wednesday. I am really looking forward to that, I think it is going to be a lot of fun!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone, hopefully I will have more to post after our trip to Knoxville!

Washington, DC

2008-10-13T14:44:00.008-04:00

After we took a long but quick look through the Air and Space Museum we took a long walk around some of the sites in DC.

Ravens vs Titans

2008-10-10T17:28:00.003-04:00

We had fun last Sunday at the Raven vs Titans NFL game. We had great seats again thanks to wonderful friends!!!! We also had awesome company along with us this time!!!

Titans won 13 to 10 over the Ravens

Michael Phelps was an honorary Captain for the Ravens - the best picture I could get was on the Jumbo Tron, he is wearing number 08 jersey!

Hidden Talent

2008-08-05T11:47:00.004-04:00

Well Carson has been hard at work the last few weekends...

We put our heads together and came up with a solution to our TV viewing/power problem!

Not too long ago Carson purchased his center channel speaker for the great room. It does not fit in the media console for its size alone, but we also have too much other stuff to even try! So Carson sat it right in front of the TV. As you can see blow it ever so slightly blocked the bottom of the TV but also made it difficult for using the remote to turn on the TV. So we came up with an idea!

We agreed on a solution, but in order to make it happen we had to make a few stops 1. to Sears for the tools!

2. to Lowes and Home Depot for the appropriate lumber and supplies. 3. We had to call on Carson's Grandfather for a "professional" opinion for our stain. 4. We had to locate who sold that particular stain then go to ACE Hardware to purchase!

Carson put the piece together faster than I could take a picture (I was to busy trying to figure out how it was going to turn out I forgot to annoy him with pics!). Carson applies the second coat of stain!

And the finished product is AWESOME!! I think Carson did a wonderful job!!

The angle shot below gives you more of an idea of the concept we came up with together!
We make a pretty good pair sometimes! :)

HMM... What else can I have him work on???

July 4th

2008-07-18T11:22:00.004-04:00

Carson and I decided to tour around DC a bit to celebrate the 4th of July. Below are a couple pics from our time there!

NASA had a little festival going on and Carson could tell me all about the the electronics of this old engine to a shuttle. He knew some of the guys from Honeywell that worked on this particular model!

We had planned to stay for the fireworks but when it began to rain we decided it was not worth it so we returned home!

June Beach Trip

2008-07-18T11:11:00.004-04:00

We had a great time with family at the beach! I only have a few pics from my camera.... hope to get more from the rest of the family later!

Carson and Skylar watching T.V. together!

neither of them wanted to be interrupted to take a picture... can you tell?

This is the jellyfish the boys caught right off our dock (YUCK!). Notice the crab beside it, the jellyfish spit out the crab once we pulled it out of the water!

The view from our deck at sunset... it was so relaxing!

The tide came in so far this year that our dock was flooded a few nights! The kids enjoyed playing in the water again!!!

This is the view from our deck overlooking the dock out to the marsh! NICE!

I hope to have other pics to post when I get copies from others!

We are still around!!!

2008-06-21T20:26:00.003-04:00

I apologize to those of you who may have been checking this for a while now with no updates... We really have not had too many exciting things going on!!!!
I guess since the last time I blogged, I quit my job, we went to Knoxville, we went to the beach, and we had a really nice dinner out for free!!!

The job was just not working out for me. I did not get along very well with some of my co-workers. The Regional Manager had one idea of what she wanted out of the position, but the local supervisor had a different idea which caused conflict for me. Between the negativity and being told that I was not doing things right or fast enough, I decided it was just not the place for me!!!

We went to Knoxville the week of Memorial Day to visit friends and family (mostly the Fischer's). We had a great time catching up with several people that we rarely ever get to see!!! I got to do more visits around Knoxville as Carson worked remotely so he did not have to use vacation days!!!!! (sorry I left my camera in the car the whole week!)

We left Knoxville to travel to North Carolina. We got to spend the night with my sister and her husband on our way and see their beautiful home!!! We spent a day in the outskirts of Raleigh, as that is a possible place we could end up at in a couple years! Then we drove to Myrtle Beach for the Baird family vacation! I only have a few pics from the beach, between dad and my sister-in-law there were plenty of pics taken, I am just waiting to receive copies!

Right before we left for our two week Knoxville/Beach trip Carson was rewarded at work for all his efforts on a project. They suggested he take me out for a nice dinner on the company!!!!!

This past Wednesday we went to Fogo De Chao (http://www.fogodechao.com/).
It is a Brazillian Steakhouse where they serve all the meat on large skewers and it was wonderful!!!
Congrats to Carson ... all his hard work is definitely paying off!!!
(I meant to take my camera, especially since we were all dressed up, but I forgot and Carson did not remind me until we were already on the road!!!)

As for me, well I have completed training for a summer job. Beginning on Monday, I will be working with two different preschool camps for the next 6 weeks. Maybe it will lead to another job!!!! We'll see!

April Review

2008-04-24T20:58:00.007-04:00

Well, the past month has been somewhat eventful but not necessarily all fun!! :)
Below are some of the highlights....

To begin the month, we ordered a new couch which was delivered on Wednesday!!!

I think it is safe to say that Carson is already enjoying the new couch...
Look at Smokey in the corner I think his eyes sum up his initial reaction to the new couch!

I guess Carson got tired of hearing me talk about wanting to get in shape, he went out and bought me an elliptical!!! I guess I do not have any excuses anymore!! I will have to get a picture to post here soon.. (I thought I had one but apparently the thought never turned into an action!)

Lastly we celebrated our 2 year Wedding Anniversary on Tuesday! We had a wonderful dinner out! Carson had made reservations to The Melting Pot. (mmmm) We had a nice and relaxing 2.5 hours at dinner! Carson was so nice, he took them up on a service they had to put flowers on the table and take a picture of us! I have a picture of the flowers... I will post the picture of us when we get it scanned into the computer!!!

Thanks Carson!! I love you!!

These are a couple pictures of the cats that I thought were cute!!
Above is Gracie, Below is Smokey.

Tomorrow's news today!!!

2008-03-29T20:53:00.003-04:00

So, Carson and I went out this evening to do a little shopping and to get dinner. When we arrived home at 8:30pm there was a newspaper in our driveway. We thought it was odd seeing as we had already read today's paper. When I picked up the paper and looked at it I realized Sunday's paper had already been delivered to us!!! Is that not odd? I guess we really do not get the most up to date news with this paper now do we?

If you have a hard time believing this look at the picture below and compare it to the date & time this post was written!!

Where did March go?

2008-03-23T20:40:00.013-04:00

To begin the month Carson went to CA for the first week on business. While walking through LAX airport he saw the Designer, Paige, from Extreme Home Makeover. Without thinking much about it Carson called out her name and she responded; thus he passed a quick hello and let her know that we enjoy watching the show!

While in CA Carson was also able to visit with a couple friends that we hardly/never get to see because of the distance. Carson really enjoyed being able to spend some time with Matt & Claire and family, as well as going to see his friend Brian's band play in Hollywood.

The next week I began my new job and have been adjusting to learning my new responsibilities as well as adjusting to the new schedule. It is hard to get up early when you have been sleeping in for a while now!!

Last week we had an overnight visit from Carson's long time friend, Joe. We enjoyed having him for the evening, we went out to dinner as well as he and Carson played the Wii together and enjoyed time to just catch up.

We also went to the Circus in Baltimore last week. Both Carson and I enjoyed that evening and seeing the animals perform. Although we spent a fortune to purchase some cotton candy with a hat it was all worth a night of fun!!!

Below are some pictures from the month.

Smokey awaits for the day somebody will play miniature tennis with him, although he is scared of tennis rackets!

WATCH OUT!!! Carson gets intense when he plays the Wii!

Gracie does not like to be bothered when she takes over our seating areas!

I think it is safe to say that Smokey likes the entertainment console that we bought!

Carson wearing the hat that came with the cotton candy. I believe that face fits with the character of the hat!

Below: We had a lot of fun watching the acts and see the animals perform!!!

It Only Took 5 Weeks & 3 Days

2008-02-29T16:50:00.005-05:00

We finally have our basement back!!!!

Below is the basement on Wednesday night... we had moved everything in from the garage so Carson did not have to park outside in the ice. After Carson got home Wed. evening we moved it all back out in the garage so work could begin Thursday morning.

Now we have everything back in and a little more organized... Now all we need to do is wait to see if our Landlord is going to keep his word and give us a deck so we can put our patio furniture outside instead of the basement... Luckily it is only blocking a storage closet!!!

Soon to be a Working Woman again!

2008-02-20T14:06:00.002-05:00

I have officially accepted a new job with the local 4-H Youth Development Program as a Faculty Extension Assistant. Documents are beginning to be processed so that I may start by March 10th. I am pretty excited as I will work with other 4-H staff on ways to expand the local program with more youth and volunteers.
Thanks to everyone who has supported me during my search with good thoughts and prayers as well as those who were ready to and/or able to speak on my half as a reference!!!
I will let you know how it goes when I begin!

Sunny Florida

2008-02-03T17:11:00.000-05:00

Although I took my camera to Florida last week with us I did not take any pictures... I had too much fun enjoying the weather to remember the camera on outings!!! We had a great time seeing Judy and John (Carson's parents), Bill and Mizuzu (Friends of Carson's parents), as well at the Johnston crew in Tampa. Although the weather was not as warm as it could have been for this time of the year it was much more comfortable than the weather we currently have in MD.

Now back in MD we are regrouping from the busted pipe that occurred 4 days before we left for FL. Although the carpet has been pulled and the room been dried of excess water, we are still waiting to get the carpet replaced. Hopefully something will be determined this coming week so that we can get things back in order. Please keep your fingers crossed for us! :) :)

C-A-P-S - Go Caps Go!!!

2008-01-20T22:31:00.000-05:00

On Saturday evening Carson and I were entertained by a NHL game. We went to DC to see the Washington Capitals play the Florida Panthers! I had never been to a hockey game so it was an experience. We enjoyed the game as well as all the entertainment provided throughout the game to keep the crowd involved.

FACE OFF!!

The Capitals won 5 to 3.

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!!!!!

2008-01-18T16:42:00.000-05:00

Yesterday we got probably about 3 inches of snow! YEAH!!!

Since Carson had to come home early due to the weather, I let him work for the afternoon but early evening I convinced him to go outside and play!!!
Not only did we have fun building a snowman, but we also enjoyed a little snowball fight (which I won) as we were trying to find accessories for the snowman.

Are we a cute family or what?

Christmas 2007 / New Years 2008

2008-01-02T16:37:00.000-05:00

Okay... So I am aware that it has been longer than I promised so I want to begin by giving my apology to those who have been faithful!

We traveled to Knoxville for Christmas! It was great to see all the family, to play with our niece and nephews, and visit with friends whom we have not been able to see for a while!!! Although I do not have pictures of all the events, we had a great time!!!

To begin... here is Carson chillin' out while I wrap all the presents! At least he looks good while he chills! :)

Although Carson will deny it!! I think he had fun playing games with the kids. The inevitable game of Twister had to be played at some point during our visit!

I think Nonny and Poppy did a great job finding this singing sit and spin!

I think it is safe the say the grandkids will be spoiled in this family!!!

So we decided to keep New Years low key this year as we have had a lot going on this fall!!! We began with a nice dinner at Carrabba's then back to the house for games and chocolate fondue for dessert. I think we might have gone a little overboard on the quantity, but it was definitely enjoyed!

HAPPY NEW YEAR'S TO ALL!!!

Merry Christmas

2007-12-25T11:18:00.000-05:00

We wanted to say Merry Christmas to everyone. Unfortunately I forgot my camera cable in MD so I cannot download pics till we return. I will post some for everyone then!

Go COLTS!!!!

2007-12-11T10:23:00.000-05:00

On Sunday Carson and I went to the Colts vs. Ravens game here in Baltimore. It was a new experience for us both and we had a good time.

Here is the Jumbo Tron at M&T Bank Stadium Prior to the game.

Carson and I prior to the game... we had seats right at the corner of the end zone on the 18th row!!!!! Could not have received better seats!

Here Peyton is passing for the first touchdown of the game.... right in front of us!!!!

Carson thought he was one of Peyton's receivers... although the ball was never thrown to him!!
He was a good sport about it! :)

Snow in Maryland

2007-12-07T13:35:00.001-05:00

We got about 4 inches of snow on Wed. Below are a couple pictures that were taken from the window in our guest room looking out the front of the house.

November Recap

2007-12-06T13:32:00.000-05:00

Well I really do not know where to begin!

Early November Carson and I took a trip to DC to do some sight seeing as I had not been there before. Unfortunately we were unable to find a parking spot that day... as we kept driving we were at least able to park near the Jefferson Memorial. So we did and took a look!

The next week we celebrated Carson's 31st Birthday. We went out to the Melting Pot for a Nice Long Enjoyable Dinner. Carson is also enjoying his birthday gift this year... I forgot to take the camera with us to the restaurant.

The next week we signed a two year lease on a town home.

Luckily we now have furniture but still not quite ready for picture taking.

SOLD!!!!

2007-12-01T09:25:00.000-05:00

The house in KY is officially SOLD!
Now we can begin to move on to greener pastures!!! :)

Everything is going well here, we are just trying to unpack and get settled for the next couple years!!!

Where did November Go???

2007-11-28T08:23:00.000-05:00

Okay I apologize for not posting for close to a month now!!!
Wow has this been a crazy time....
1. The house in KY is under contract and we are set to close on Friday.
2. We had movers pick up our furniture two days before Thanksgiving and they delivered it yesterday.
3. We were in Knoxville for Thanksgiving (with the crazy cats)... It was wonderful seeing family :)
4. Carson is on a business trip this week, so I had to deal with the movers and I am left to unpack the boxes... I better be able to go the spa when he gets back! :)

Once I get a little more situated I will post some pics from our last month and our new place. For those who have not received a change of address you will hopefully be getting that information soon! Please be patient with me.

2007-11-01T20:40:00.001-04:00

Since Carson said I was putting too many pictures of the cats on here I thought I would change it up a bit!

Here are the two of us before we left for our Halloween dinner; where the trick was played on me!

Here is Smokey all curled up with Carson, I think he enjoys having Carson around again!

Settling in Maryland

2007-10-28T10:32:00.000-04:00

Carson and I have had a good week as we have settled in a bit as well as looked around for a new place to live. If all goes well I think we have found a place we can call home for at least the next couple of years. If we get the place I will send pictures! We have to move by mid-November so I hope it all checks out!

Below are a couple pictures of the view from the current apartment we are in.

This picture is from our balcony - this is the only outside scenery we get to view directly from the apartment, at least it is not just another building.

This picture is from the top level of the parking garage (right behind where Carson parks).

I thought this was funny so I thought I would share:

On the Left: Gracie in the bath tub at home in KY while we were packing things up!

On the Right: Gracie in the bath tub at the apartment in MD after we unloaded the U-Haul.

Do you think she wants a bath???

We Have Taken the Next Step

2007-10-21T22:48:00.000-04:00

Well, Carson and I drove majority of the day on Saturday with the cats and a U-Haul trailer and made our way to Maryland. I believe we have settled into this apartment the best we probably will for the next month. By mid November we should be moving into another apartment. The cats have begun to adjust and spread out to claim their spots!!! Carson will return to work on Monday and I will keep the cats company as I continue to look for a job. If I get adventurous I may attempt to figure my way around the area!!!

Thank You

2007-10-19T17:02:00.000-04:00

Thank you for all your prayers. My Sister-in-law, Tiffany, called this morning to let me know that she received results from the doctor and everything came back negative.
Little Cole is as healthy as can be!!!! :)

Weekend with the family

2007-10-18T17:58:00.001-04:00

I got to meet Cole in person this weekend, he is so little and of course so cute!!!! Please keep him in your prayers as we have not heard the results of the tests he had for CAH.

I had fun playing with Skylar and keeping her occupied. It was great to see most of the family and be able to hang out for a few days. I hope that it is not too long before I get to do that again.

I also got to go to River's soccer practice and see how well he can play. He was so happy to have someone new see him in action. When practice was over we got to play a little one on one, boy do I need to get myself in shape again!!!!!

I got back on Tuesday and picked Carson up at the Airport that evening; it is great to have him around after not seeing him for almost 5 weeks! Carson has been working from home this week and have begun to get things ready to pack up and haul to Maryland.

Please keep little Cole in your prayers

Tests that came back from the state (a screening) where they screen for several different diseases and one came back positive for CAH… it is a life sustaining hormone regulated by an enzyme that supposedly this disease is where they do not produce it. (1 in 19,000 births are affected by this disease) What a scare …so tests were repeated to look for several things in his blood…and with that they found he was dangerously high in Bilirubin… they had him under lights for the last two days in the hospital and now back at home…his blood has been tested several times and all is in normal range now after IV therapy and lights…They get the repeat test results back on Mon or Tues of next week to determine whether or not the CAH is a false positive…so pray that it is….they said sometimes preemies will have elevated levels of potassium or different things just because they are so preemie…so…just pray pray pray for us…

Open House

As I was preparing for the Open House I could not locate Smokey! I wanted to share where I found this curious cat, I thought it was hilarious! FYI - this is the bedroom they are normally not allowed into!

So we had an open house on Sunday. It was not very busy but there was not any negative feedback from any lookers. No commitments on Sunday, that was to be expected. I am staying hopeful that someone that came by just might call back!

My Nephew Cole was born this morning (Jeff's son). From what I have heard everyone is doing well! I will post pics when I get some!

OK! Per Sharon's request I will give an update on our situation! :)

We have not sold the house yet. We continue to hope and pray that someone will come through soon that will just fall in love and want to but the home. We have had really good remarks from buyers and realtor's that have come through but it just has not been the right family yet!

We are planning an open house this Sunday. So I am going to keep my fingers crossed that it will be successful for us!!!

My last day at work is October 12th and I am looking forward to my weekend in Clarksville/Nashville to see my Brother's family and go to Amber's Baby Shower! I believe Carson will be able to join me for that weekend as we are going to pack up a few things and drive to Maryland with the funny kitty's that week!

So please pray for us as we take another step in our move and that we can sell this house sooner rather than later!

Hello all, I wanted to welcome you to our Blog. As much as Carson does not like the word "Blog" I felt this could be a nice way to keep friends and family informed of different things happening with us! Thus, I have entered us into the blog world.

Carson's response to me creating this blog was, "You are starting to go all high-tech multi-media on me ..... I like it!"

Go figure!!!

Please stay tuned as I begin to create and develop a blog that fits Carson and I the best.
