The Wedding!!!!

Ok so it is finally complete. The union of these two people whom I love. It was a great day full of laughter, tears, smiles, a few uh-ohs and most of all great weather.
Again all of my pictures are backwards so we will start at the end of the eve.
Here they are at the bar in Petersburg. We had a few moments to waste so we stopped off at the bar. This is a cute picture!



Here we have my handsome hubby! His pants were about 5 sizes too large so he had to borrow a pair of Gpa's suspenders to hold them up. Here he is with his pants pulled up and his tie tucked in trying to make everyone laugh. Gosh I love him.



Here we have the bride wearing a pair of 3D glasses. Why?? I do not know!











Before the wedding I was bored so I decided to take a picture with everyone who was available. So get ready to get sick of seeing my face. Me and my Dad!




Me and my brother I must say for holding the camera ourselves. All of these pics turned out very well. Although it helps if you have long ape arms like Jamie! And NO I am not naked.






Here you can tell that Melissa's arms are not that long. A little closer up.






Ok even closer yet. Grandma is now holding the camera. How fun!



Here is Sean and I before the wedding. Notice how I am holding the flowers in front of my belly. I was a little uncomfortable in the dress but left it on until 7:00.



Here is Miranda not smiling. But looking very nice.




And here is McKayla sitting down and taking a break!



Here is Patti with such a pretty smile.


Here we have Grandpa sitting down and taking it all in before the wedding started.

Here we have my cousin Melissa. She had many tasks. She was the brides personal assistant and she also had her trusty camera with her at all times. She did so much to help out from coming over to Angels at 9 in the morning and helping set up the house to helping with everything else she was wonderful. Thanks Melissa!


And here we have the bride brushing her teeth before walking down the aisle!

The Bump makes an appearance.....YIKES!


Here I am in all of pregnant glory. Don't I look so happy. This was taken at 20 weeks. Just a cute little bump. One other joy I now have is semi-curly hair. It is fun to play around with.

NOW LOOK.... what the heck happened. 24 weeks! Oh MY. I am blaming it on my new shirt and pants. They really make the bump noticeable. But I guess, they tell me that the baby is 13 inches long (what? really? Thats longer than a ruler) and just over a pound! It all seems to be happening so fast. The little tike sure likes to kick and Daddy got to feel him move for the first time on New Years Day morning. So now every time I feel the baby move I quick grab Sean but for some reason he seems to know that daddy is there and doesn't always cooperate. The kicks seem to stop as soon as his hand is laid down and start again as soon as he removes it. So funny all I can do is laugh about it.
Well I will try to keep you posted on the baby bumps increase!

The "Bumps" Christmas


This is a bouncer that Baby got from Auntie Angel. It has music and lights, it also vibrates at the push of the button to help soothe crying. Lets hope that it works.



This is the nursery set that we saw at Babies R Us when we registered and we just fell in love so we had to buy it..... All of it. This is the lamp it is sooo cute and yes we decided to go with a farm theme.



These are some of the cutest little animals that are on the quilt. This set comes with a valance, diaper holder, dust ruffle, quilt, bumper and fitted sheet.






Look at this cute tractor being driven by the adorable little puppy. AHHH I am in love! The pic on the right is an extra blanket that we bought that has the cute little farm scene on it and it is ever so soft. We also bought a mobile and a wall paper border that matches. So you could say that we are set.... But wait! Do we have a crib to put all of this in????? Umm... No! We are waiting for just the right one to catch our eyes again, because Target has the one that we really want but they are being dumb so we decided to look around.





This is us on Christmas Eve at the Hanssen house after church and before gift opening.



Here another gift that baby got from Auntie. It has a wiener dog on it so of course she gave in and just had to get it for us.





This is Grandma Kathy with one of her Christmas presents. She is very excited to wear it soon and is also thinking of changing her license plate to GMAKAT instead of MAMAKAT!




This is a very precious gift that we got from Seans sister and family the Youngbergs. Auntie Courtney asked me for some of my old scrubs a few months ago and she used them to make a quilt for the baby along with an old sheet that Sean had used on his bed when he was little. It is so sweet and cute and I actually got teary eyed when we opened it. I know that it took her a lot of time and effort as she has never done anything like this before.
(Oh the whole teary eyed thing seems to be happening al ot lately. On the way down to the cities the roads were REALLY bad for a small stretch and we saw lots of cars in the ditch and even some sitting on their roofs. Well this seemed to make Amber cry. Yes everytime we saw a car in the ditch I would cry. I am sure that all of you women know what this is all about. However Sean was uneasy with the whole crying thing and wasn't sure how he should react. He quickly learned and we are looking forward to more hormonal fun!!!!)



She decided that she better throw in some animals of some sort so she found some old fabric that had cows on it and a few geese as well. If you make it bigger you can see the geese. So that is just a few of the gifts that the "bump" (as Daddy Sean likes to call it) received for Christmas.
