Tiny Dancer

When I was out shopping with my mom, we found what I have been looking for finally!

A hot pink leotard & hot pink patent leather ballet shoes! And Abby just loved them of course! She was hilarious to watch and now always wants to wear her "baweena choos."

Hope you enjoy the rest of the pictures. Updates to come tommorow from my doctor's appointment! I cannot wait to see if the "process" has begun...I think it has...I hope it has!

Momma help! We are working on this one! Look at all the chompers though!

Got it off all by herself!

Ready for Santa

If Santa decides to come early, we are definately ready for him! We put our tree up this past Sunday and also a few other reminders of my favorite holiday! I didn't go all out this year, like putting my Christmas china out or setting my kitchen table with all the stuff I normally do. Just the bare essentials (for me that is...haha!) Considering I will have a 20 month old and a probablly a 3/4 week old when it comes time to put it away, we decided to make it a little easier on ourselves! We are so excited to take Abby to see Santa this year, and hope it will be a good experience. She loves all the Christmas stuff they have in stores, and says "cute" or "Merry Crizzmas" whenever she sees stuff. I see alot of riding around looking at "aights" in our future.

Anyways, we have a busy weekend ahead. Getting ready for a baby shower for one of my mom's work friends who is having a baby boy in March! Don't know if I have mentioned this on my blog, but my sweet sister (okay in law, but that is just words) Kate and her hubby are expecting again. My niece Addison is only a month younger than Abs and that has been too much fun. Well this time Ethan will be only 3 months or so older than his cousin Marshall! :-) Yes, if you know our family that makes 4 girls in a row: Huntley, Madeline, Abby & Addison, then four boys in a row: William III, Matthew David, Ethan & Marshall! No pressure on my other sister (in law) and Ev's bro Matt! :-) Then on Sunday, we will see little Matthew David get dedicated at church! It will surely be a great day ( doesn't hurt that preggo will get to eat some cake twice that day! haha!)

Anyways, that is all for now! Hope you enjoy these pictures!

My new Target wreath...you know your old one isn't to special when you can't even remember what it looks like ! I just love it!!

Our tree

Abby's tree in her room...come on, every girl needs a silver tinsel tree with green & pink ornaments! :-)

Another week down...

This morning I had my first weekly doctor's appointment. It went as usual: weight, blood pressure, tee tee in the cup, see my wonderful doctor, hear heartbeat, measure big belly then feel for presentation - head down ready to go as I have known for a few weeks. At this point I feel monsterous...and my wonderful doctor makes me feel good. Anytime someone calls you "thin" when your almost 9months preggo makes you feel better :-) Next week, we will start the fun process of "checking" for dilation! For people who haven't had a kiddo, it isn't the most comfortable thing, but I for one cannot wait! I hope my body starts the process for us again so that maybe this time I won't be in labor for 13 hours like with the Abster. Still it was a wonderful 13 hours with the ultimate reward! Anyways, on to start my next project. Turning Abby's old Pottery Barn Mobile into a fish mobile for Ethan...I will post pictures when I finish :-)

That's all for now!

The Countdowns on...

We are 35 weeks preggo already! Gheez...where does the time go?? And we will meet our little Ethan in less than 4 weeks! Tuesday I start my weekly visits and cannot wait! I will post an update when I get home, so check back around noon on Tuesday!

That's all for now! My belly is super HUGE and I am not sure there is room to grow, but I know he will find a way! haha! War Eagle from The Marshalls!

Ready for Christmas & Little E!

So as you may have guessed by the blog...I am in full preparedness mode and went ahead and changed the blog for the holidays! We start going for our weekly visits next week, so I am really excited to see if I have started the process (see how discreet I was :-)) haha!!

Anyways, on another note, our sweet little Abby is 19 months today! I cannot believe that 19 months ago we saw her beautiful face for the first time, and also that 1 month from today we will see our sons' face for the first time!

That's all for now :-)

Our silly 19 month old Abby!

34 Weeks & The room is ready!

Today I went for my 34 week appointment. Everything looks great still, and I am looking forward to going back in 2 weeks to start my weekly visits. We are getting a weight check ultrasound this pregnancy at 37/38 weeks before we go to the hospital. More for mommy's sake and thinking that Ethan is massive :-) Or maybe that is just the difference in boys and girls. Please say a prayer for us and other mommies to be that we all make it to our due dates/or scheduled induction dates. Most of my husbands family will be out of town the week before Thanksgiving and therefore I am "forbidden" to let little Ethan come while they are gone. I think he will stick around to the scheduled date this time, but who knows!

Anyways, that is all! Hope you enjoy the pictures of his room! Tootles!

Side Note: I did make all this....not alone though :-) Miss Charlotte is just awesome, and if you ever need appliques, monogramming or anything custom made check her out on FB - K & H Florist :-)

Happy Halloween!

Well Halloween this year was alot more fun for us and the kiddo! Last year, she was a little unsure why she was dressed as a pumpkin and it was a little overwhelming for her. Not this year! Our little cowgirl was going, going, going nonstop! That explains the following pictures :-) She really enjoyed watching all the older kids and seeing what everyone was wearing. She was the welcome committee at the Marshall Boo Bash...telling everyone "Hello" or "hey!" It was a great night and we were so happy to watch AU win again as well! Hope you enjoy the pictures below...I will post again tommorow after my 34 week appointment. And Ethan's bedding is done so I will have those pictures on there as well!! Tootles!


All we have heard the past few weeks is punkin, punkin, punkin! When it came time for actual pumpkin carving...we didn't care at all :-)



Our "punkin"



Cowgirl on the move....need a better camera or to teach my child to stand still :-) Think I'll go with the camera :-) haah!

Medusa dropped by for a visit on Friday after work...Abby loved her (Nana) spider jewelry!
