Cute art

I stumbled opon the cutest Etsy shop today.....ThreeRedApples. I am just loving the cute Embroidery art. A skill I would love to learn but have not had the time or patience to learn. I would like to try something before this little Baby B makes her appearience but if I fail it would be nice to pick something up from this shop.

Thankful for the alien-like feeling in my tummy.....

November is a month of being thankful for the things we may not remember to be thankful for at other times of the year. Take for instance this little baby girl in my belly. I seem to forget sometimes that it took Shane and I a whole 14 months of trying before we saw that lovely pink line on the test. There were so many months of sadness when I wouldn't see anything or feel anything, it was hard for both of us. Through all those months I was always so grateful for the cute girl and handsome boy that we already had...but it was hard because I wanted them to have another sibling, someone to share these crazy parents with.

Here we are months later and I am almost 31 weeks pregnant and I couldn't be happier and more ready to meet this little girl. In the past week or so I have realized that there was a reason that this little girl did not come along sooner. There was a plan for us...a right time. We have been through a lot this year between Shane not working and me with my constant ups and downs. Shane is finally working and I finally feel more stable and more happy than I have in a while. So I know now why we had to wait and I am glad that I know that now....and I am glad that we had to wait.

So after all of this I am here to say that I am thankful for this little girl in my belly and I am thankful for all her little kicks and punches. These kids are the greatest thing that have ever happened to us and I know that more than I know anything else that is for certain.

*I will update this post with a belly picture as soon as I can.

Fall Wreath

Here's my latest craft...A fall wreath! The base is a styrofoam wreath and then I wrapped it in yarn. Then I attached fall flowers and leafs. I am pretty happy with the way it turned out......and it was fun to make! Next up a halloween wreath!

The belly is a growin'

This is me at 23 weeks. I definitely don't feel as huge with Baby B (that is what I call her) as I did with Addy. Then I look at this picture and I guess that belly is growing well.

I like being pregnant.

Cute fall craft

I found this cute fall garland idea on Beautiful Mess. I definitely want to try this one this weekend. It looks super easy but super stylish. Find out how here

PS....hasn't this early September weather been wonderful? I am most definitely in the mood for some zucchini bread, heirloom tomatoes (I could eat those babies like they're an apple), and peaches. Oh boy I love September...favorite month ever.

Banana split for breakfast...yes please

I love bananas and I love love love greek yogurt....so this looks like the best breakfast ever! It would make this prego belly happy for sure.



Found it here!

It's a girl!!

Most people that read this blog are friends with me on Facebook so most people I know have already heard the news that we're having a girl!!

We are so excited about this news! This time we weren't hoping for one sex over the other so I honestly didn't have any guesses about what this tiny bits was. Now that we know that she is a girl I could not be more thrilled. All day I have been imagining my two little girls playing together and loving each other. I have been thinking about what a good big sister Addy is going to be. I have also been thinking about how someday it is going to be absolutely crazy to have two teen aged daughters....we will just hope for the best. Until then I am going to cherish my sweet little girls and enjoy watching them grow into beautiful young ladies. Today I could not be happier!

And just because here is a silly picture of me and cute little Addy.



PS...Shane calls Addy little bits for a nickname and he has already nicknamed this one tiny bits. How cute is that? Daddy's and their little girls are the best!
