Early to Rise

Kicked out of bed by my own kids...what kind of mom have I become. It is a very useful time to dink around on the computor...to bad the house is too cold to move around in. I am down to my last 4 OB visits, the doctor says I am measuring on the large side, a simple reconfirmation of how I feel...thank you doctor. Both Taylor and Nolan were bigger babies so I am not suprised...it must be the Dairy Queen. I am in the 5 week count down...I can't wait...I can, but I can't.

Jessy's Nursery

We still have a few details to tie together, but here it is...the baby nursery. I absolutely love it! A babies room is so peaceful and relaxing...I should definately hang out in there more during this time where I am slowly loosing my mind. My nesting is out of control, having a holiday baby is taking my planning and organizing skills to a new level. Oh did I mention that having a baby between your ribs and hips is really comfortable ... can't wait for our new addition!!

Home Improvements

Sometimes I look out at my yard, and laugh at the weeds creeping up all around me, and other times I am amazed at just how far we have come. We moved in about a year in a half ago, and since then we have starting establishing grass...some of this is seed...yikes...definately not instantly rewarding. We have put in a driveway...my favorite thing. Also we have established some garden beds that are very low maintanance, yet attractive. Low maintanance is our goal out in the country b/c inevitably their is a ton of extra work to do in this environment. On the side of the house we planted roses, our only splash of color besides the leaves on the burning bushes turning red. I am not even brave enought for flowers as they may need occasional hand watering. LOL.

Ginnea Pig

My darling daughter loves this dog, she named her ginnea pig the week she was born, inspired by her pig like looks I guess. I keep preparing her for ginnea pigs departure that will be over the next few weeks, although I am going to be heart broken if she is. That is a definate down side to raising dogs...you can't help but get attached even if you are me. She thinks this dog is her daughter and she is always trying to make her more comfortable. I love you sis, please don't be sad when we sell ginnea pig.

Dance Party!

I definately do not get enough video of the kids. They love to have dance parties...I still don't know how to edit video, so this might trail a bit. I don't mind because of course they are my babies.

Asleep by the fire

Nolan fell asleep in front of the fire the other night watching a boy movie. He had a book on his head, when I took off the book he sat up in a confused daze and quickly smooshed his face back on the book and closed his eyes. Thats what these goofy pictures are...it was way cute.

And the name is...

Jay, the kids and I have officially decided to name our baby girl Jessy. We are still deciding on a middle name...lots of names go well with Jessy. The nursery is painted, the crib is in place, and plans are being made. I am sooooo excited. Fall is here, a new baby is coming, and the holidays are around the corner. 32 weeks and 3 days today...the count down is on.
