24 weeks pregnant, 3 years married.

Jeff and I just had our 24 week appointment with the doctor. The baby is doing great, its little heart beating away and its little limbs kicking like crazy. Its so funny how now I think so often in one year from now terms. For instance, a year from now when Jeff and I go out for an anniversary dinner we'll have to get a babysitter (I'm sure we won't have a problem finding someone :) for our 8 month old little boy or girl! How crazy is that?

Here's a couple of pictures from our visit with the Strom family. I can't believe it was a week ago already! We had such a blast, thanks for coming to see us!

Jeff's folks watched Jackson while we took Caleb to the playfront playground.

We stopped to watch a boat pass under the Aerial Lift bridge.

July, a Month to Celebrate!

Six members of the Johnson-Nyberg family were born in July!

Happy Birthday to Beth, Court, Carl, Jeff, Kevin and Aimee!! We had a little birthday party for the boys in Iron River, MI this weekend.

We were liking the step-stool effect so we added Paul to the mix. :)

Here are all the kiddos, sadly no parents present. :(

It was so good to be back at camp, even if only for a quick moment in time! We did an island trip and went off the "dew" swing a couple of times.

20 Weeks

We got to see our little one yesterday for a cherished half of an hour at the doctor's office.

The baby was sucking its thumb!

It looks like baby johnson has a hole in his/her head but really it was the way the baby was tilted. What a cutie huh? We looked away when the technition took the measurements of the lower half of the body. I have to admit though, it was tempting...

The baby has been very active lately. During the ultrasound it was so amazing to see the little one move and feel it in my abs at the same moment!

Livin' it up on the Cape

We spent the second week of our summer vacation in Cape Cod, MA. We had incredible weather for our week.
This is the view from the porch of our cottage. Not bad eh?

We ate at a bunch of local eaterys including this one called "the doghouse." I would venture to say that they had the best onion rings I have ever had!

This was our rig for the week.

On Monday it was a bit cloudy so we took a trip up to Provincetown. We came upon the Marconi site where the first transatlantic wireless telegraph was transmitted in 1903. This was what as left of the actual structure.

We went to Boston for a day. Aaron, this one's for you.

My first job was the oldest profession (not really, but I was at a 'hooker' at the family fishing lure company) .

Dinner with LeeAnn at the "the Ye Olde Oyster House", the oldest restaurant in America.

Fourth of July in Happyrock

It's been a long time since we posted anything so here's some long awaited pictures. Jeff and I spent the first week of our vacation at my folks house in Gladstone. Here are some shots of our week.

J & A at a jazz concert in Esky.

We took my little cousin Svea to the park.

The Gladstone 4th of July Parade. I just have to post this picture to illustrate how they let anything in the parade. This group is advertising perminant eye make-up and wigs. We had a good laugh.

The Nyberg Family 4th get-together.

My cousin Yanik got his archery badge while in the states. We got to use the bow and arrow after his completed his task. I'm 18 weeks pregant in this picture.

A Nyberg family tradition is to listen to my Uncle Anders' band concert before the fireworks.

Jeff and Yanik we in charge if lighting the fireworks. We had a great time in Happyrock. Nothing like Independance day in the U.P.

One nice Sunday afternoon a couple of weeks ago we decided to see what was under the carpeting in the baby's room. Much to our delight we discovered beautiful hardwood floors! We were so excited that we started painting so we could pull up the floor.

The inspiration for the wall color. Isn't the crib bedding so cute?

Me and my little belly.

I have been asked if we are expecting a boy because we painted our room blue. The answer is we don't know. We're not finding out the sex of the baby until its birthday which should be around the 8th of December.

This was a special occasion. Jeff got to use his dad's "World's Greatest Dad" mug for the first time.

'nuff said.

Well, really I'm thirteen weeks (don't be fooled by the bump in my sweater) pregnant and we're really excited!

Congratulations Aimee & Aaron

on your engagement!

We went to look at some places along the North Shore the day after they got enagaged. Here's Jeff pretending to officiate. He looks kinda scary! :)

When we were in Arizona this past February, Jeff felt compelled to put on these cowboy boots and hat. Today, as we sifted through tons of great Johnson family pictures, I came upon some good ones with Jeff and his sisters. We discovered it was not his first time. Enjoy!

It's Spring!

Although we don't have any flowers or even buds outside, there is almost no snow left. We're keeping our fingers crossed that it stays that way! I can't believe its already been a week since Easter so here's a few pictures of a really fun week/weekend. My folks and grandma came by on their way to Michigan before Easter. We had a great time visiting and playing Wii! My parents were into bowling but we couldn't get my grandma to play...next time!

G.P., Betty, Grandma Grace, Debbie, Duane, Jeffro in our living room.

Anna, Mom & Grandma

The whole Johnson family was home for Easter this year. Beth and Court brought their Guitar Hero game home for the weekend. What a great game but boy, did our arms hurt!

Grandpa Grant, Aimee, Aaron, Anna, Jeff, Beth, Court, Debbie and Duane (not pictured) at D & D's house.

Jeff and I had a very busy weekend. On Friday I turned a quarter of a century old. I was sung to my kids at work while they danced and played instruments. It was a great moment I wish I had my camera. After work I went to pick Jeff up from work, got the tour of his office and met all of the wonderful people he works with. Then we continued on to the twin cities to see my parents, grandma and lots of uncles, aunts and cousins. It was a great birthday! I forgot my camera so I don't have any pics right now from the weekend but here is one from the Johnson's party today.

Wii be crazy!

Jeff and I walked into a Walmart one day a little while back and they actually had a Wii in stock. So we bought it! It was an impuse purchase but boy, have we had fun! Here are some shots of Jeff, Aimee and I in action. The games are lots of fun. Jeff and Aimee are boxing but I found out that I need some anger management when I box. That and it made me so sore!
