Little Pumpkin

Happy Halloween from Owen, our little pumpkin. Sitting in his bumbo just playing and talking. I can't wait to find out what he is talking about. But until then he is my little treat and I thought I would share with you. Owen, 3 months old...

Fancy Libby Loves Her Daddy

After completing her night time reading of "Fancy Nancy" our conversation went like this...
Libby: Wow that is fancy (pointing to my wedding ring)
Me: Your daddy gave that to me.
Libby: Did you say thank you?
Me: Yes, and I married him!
Libby: I married my daddy last night too. I'm going to be married to daddy too (very matter of fact).
Me: I guess we can share daddy.
Libby: Yes, you need to share him with me.

Kubiceks Present...

With happy hands and happy hearts...Owen Roger Kubicek.

Our precious son was born at 10:18am on July 18, 2012. 

9 pounds 1 ounce 21 inches long. 

Family of 4 - Baby Brother Maternity

 Our family of 4 almost... 

Libby loves to give brothers kisses and zerberts. He can hear her talking to him nonstop. She doesn't even acknowledge mommy sometimes any more, just brother. I am glad she is including him. 

I'm a proud pregnant mommy of soon to be 2! This little man is very active and I love every minute I get to have with him. Pregnancy is beautiful, because I have the joy of caring for for this child within me. So far I can mostly still see my feet and even in the hottest summer on record in Nebraska my swelling is minimal. Jason is keeping the AC and fans comfortable in our home and trying to explain to Libby it is just not possible for mommy to carry Libby and Brother all the time. 

Our heart is in our hands and Libby just had to be included. 

Here is our family tree growing...

This BIG Sister could not be more excited. 

Libby wants to grow up to be a nurse too! She loves listening and going to the doctor to hear brother's heart beat, because he is talking to her. About 140 most of the time I am sure Libby gets the same result, but that is from the doctor:)

Libby says, "I wanna have brother in my tummy now!" Thanks for trying to share and take your turn Libby but this time only mommy gets to hold brother.

Kisses for all!

Gift from God. We will get to open and meet our special gift on July 31st or before!

May we all walk in the way of the Lord. May God direct your path Baby Boy Kubicek. We can't wait to celebrate your arrival and introduce you to your family and friends. 

Special Thanks to Melissa Kroenke 

for taking these special family photos with us at Elmwood Park. 

Our princess is 2!

Our princess turned two, all we needed to celebrate was you! Thank you to all who were able to join us in spirit, through 2 years of prayers and/or at Kubicek Castle on June 3, 2012. Libby Ann Kubicek turned 2! In all her Cinderella glory this sweet princess started her day with happy face mickey mouse pancakes, making cute out cookies - rainbows - and a pink castle cake, Sunday school (for stories about "THE KING") and then back to Kubicek Castle to be showered with love and party time fun.

 Libby smiling with all her teeth for the camera. What a big girl she look like here in her 2 year old photo shoot. Those are even big girl piggy tails per her request on her birthday morning.

What day is your birthday Libby? Quickly, "June third!" How old are you? "I'n 2, 1-2," with five stretched fingers (it is very hard to make a peace sign with one hand) so 2 hands with one finger each also makes 2, we are working on that.  Do you know how special you are? "Yes, and friendly and nice and sweet and smart and loving..." Can you tell she has received a lot of compliments in her first 2 years of life?

 Princess Libby is her favorite princess today, Cinderella. She has embraced her gift from Mommy and Daddy, her very own playhouse in the back yard. Thanks to all the strong men that moved it there. She likes to squeeze Mommy (and brother) and daddy in there and then peak in through the window and say, "Hi neighbor!". It is obvious she likes our neighbors the Bosworths. 

 Look who made a guest appearance at Libby's birthday party! The princesses from left to right (in case you are not as well versed as we are these days: Snow White (Stephanie Heinauer), Cinderella (Kassi Nelson), Aurora - Sleeping Beauty (Rachell McClain). They look just like the real thing! Thanks for making my little princess' day! 

Cousins 2 and 16! What a great year, we are so proud of you both! Happy June birthdays.

It's a...

March 14, 2012, family dinner at baby blue...ironic...

March 24, 2012

 

Deserts for all, no you can not see through the frosting on the cake. Jason did such a great job frosting it all you can is the big ? on the top. 

Everyone gather around while we cut the cake (this seems strangely like out wedding cake cutting)...what color did mommy make the cake, Libby said Ba Loo. It is blue, we are having a Baby boy, Mr. Kubicek. Libby gets to have a brother in August!

Libby shared her blue balloon and mommy and daddy got to share cake and cupcakes with blue filling. What fun to start talking about raising a son and having a little brother. 

We get to raise a leader for his family and community. We get to raise a strong man of character and integrity. We get to raise a brother to look up to and look out for his sister. We get to raise a gentleman to honor with women in his life. We get to raise a little man to be just like his daddy (I hope). So many new things to balance out our family 2 boys and 2 girls! Welcome son/brother we are so glad God has blessed us with you.

There he is and his special parts. It's a BOY!

Mr. Kubicek
