365 : WEEK 13

3/26/13 - After dinner we thought it would be fun to get the pjs on the kiddos and run to the store for a treat {plus I had to get a picture of his super hero pjs!} that quick {supposed to be fun} trip turned into a lot of whining and screaming from the two littles in the backseat of the car :/

3/27/13 - Always enjoy our weekly play date's with the neighbors...these sweet girls are all around the same age and thought it would be fun to see how many could fit in the toy box!

3/28/13 - Isaac has been trying to drop toys into the toilet for a few weeks now anytime the bathroom door opens...usually I catch him, but not this particular time oops!

3/29/13 - OK don't judge me ;) The only picture I took this day was of the car parked next to me at the gas station when I went to pick up movies for Friday Movie Night.  I thought his creative car antenna {aka a fishing pole} was quite amusing and had to sneak a picture.  I instantly texted this pic to my brothers as I knew they would also get a kick out of it {I come from a family where my dad always had an old, usually beat up type of car and so I knew my brothers would appreciate the humor!}

3/30/13 - Isaac is beginning to show interest in using silverware.  We usually don't let him feed himself yet because it's super messy.  But he picked up my fork at breakfast this particular day and wanted to use it...we gave him a kid sized one and he went to town eating an entire egg {after eating a full bowl of oatmeal & 1 1/2 bananas}
3/31/13 - We gave Karis her very first Bible on Easter day.  She has been learning about the resurrection of Christ the past 12 days through a fun activity I found on Pinterest called "Resurrection Eggs" {or as she so affectionately says "ResuNection Eggs"}  Here she is pictured with her first Bible, which was mommy's first Bible.  Lately she has really enjoyed looking through our Bibles and memorizing scripture.  So we thought, even though she can't read yet, it would be special for her to have her own Bible to look through.

4/1/13 - You may have to look closely to see it, but Isaac got his first real goose egg on his head today.  He had just been given a handful of snacking food and turned to run away from sissy {I guess so she wouldn't take it from him} when he ran right into the corner of the wall!  Oh my...I'm afraid we have two clutsy kiddos on our hands!

Adding to the Family!

Sitting down to write this blog post has been a long time coming (well at least 20 weeks or so!) But we are excited to announce that we are expecting our fourth child! Below, you will see some pictures highlighting parts of this pregnancy so far and also I talk about the name we have chosen for our little guy. Enjoy! I'm starting with this picture, because this little guy (left) pictured here with our son Isaac, I like to say is the reason we are having another baby, haha! Isaac has been smitten with this little one since he first held him as a baby two years ago and he began praying we would have another baby, specifically a boy! It's such a neat part of this story to me and I'm so thankful for our son's heart ( and friends who have cute kiddos!) This was taken right after we told the kids I was pregnant. We bought them a book titled "New Baby" and it took a while for them to clue in, because we have several friends that are currently pregnant...

Dear Grandma...

Image
Today is my grandmother's birthday. This is a big deal. Today she celebrates 93 full and amazing years here on earth. My grandma is a special lady (more on that in a minute) and the only grandparent I ever knew (long story for another time). I often think it's amazing that my kids get to know all four of their grandparents, and we cherish the moments when we are all together. The past couple of years have been a bit up and down for my grandma in regard to her health and honestly I hate being across the world during this time and also a bit envious when my brothers and cousins get to visit her when they are able (so all y'all give her a hug when you see her next for me!) It's never easy being apart from family, but especially when one is ill. So I write, because it's what I can do...no she's not going to be on Facebook reading the link to our blog, but I know my mom will gladly call her and read this to her. So grandma, here is my birthday present to you! Dea...

Surprise Arrival!

Image
This is a long post. But many of you have asked about the story of Milo's arrival. So I wanted to take time to write it out, details and all. But  for those who don't want to read the entire story with all the details, feel free to scroll through and just look at the pictures! A lot of you were shocked to hear of his arrival...so were we! (After all, we were still 25 days out from his due date when he made his appearance). I had just gone to my 36 week checkup two days prior, all was healthy and well with baby and with me and there were no signs of early labor. At that appointment, the doctor said that I was 1 cm dilated, but honesty I knew I could be at that for several weeks before seeing any progress to labor. I had a long list of nesting projects I had been slowly working on and was hoping to finish before Milo’s arrival.  Thursday morning rolled around, I realized I was beginning to show signs of possible labor nearing, but still wasn’t too alarmed just yet, after all...
