Vday

Another sucesful valentines day gone and over. We were lucky enough to keep Zach home for the day and enjoy every second! We ended the day with our traditional heart shaped pizza, I encluded the pictures from the past of our tradition only missing the very first (I think)!
What a wonderful day it was!

Can you see my toes?

Ive been thinking about this post for a couple days, thinking about how great a little black and white picture would be of my view laying down looking at my toes....
needless to say I havent taken a picture, but I can tell you the view, well it isnt there!
Ive reached the point of not being able to see my cute little toes, probably a good thing because they havent been painted in a while!
I supppose its the one thing you either look forward to in a pregnancy or dont look forward too!
I can see them when I stand and lean forward a bit but beyond that Im not really sure what the heck is holding up the top half of my body (probably my feet!)
Anyway, I pulled out my maternity pants today, they fit, a little snug but they will do.
Im preparing myself for a long 10 weeks or so ahead of me.
Preparing to be comfortable in sweatpants
Preparing to be uncomfortable as everything stretches just a hair more and the baby gets a few more elbows and knees to my ribs in
Preparing to not work
Preparing, preparing, preparing, for a new little life that will bless this house
and preparing to see my newly painted toes (Im invisioning a cherry red this third time around)

its only wednesday

I sure havent blogged in forever, probably because I am really irritated with this new template system. I cant seem to get my main picture to shrink in size so it doesnt take up the entire computer screen!
If anyone has any suggestions I am sure open!

Its only Wednesday and I woke up to the bean bag filled with itty bitty balls ripped open and coming out of the laundry room door. Thanks to our lovely new pup (not so new anymore) Miley who seems to think that nothing is sacred. Weve lost gloves, blankets, seatbelts, helmet clips, barbie shoes, bean bags, golf shoe laces, shirts, boxes, pieces of paper..etc...etc...etc....you name it Im sure we have seen it in poop!

Needless to say Zoe also wanted to go to school in her favorite outfit of all time her swimsuit, without asking she dressed herself in her clothes with her tankini swimsuit on top of them! I am not one to argue when it comes to picking out clothes so above I have added a not so great picture from my ipod for you all to enjoy and a couple other updated!

And better yet my little tomboy Hannah has decided to become full little girl and only wants to wear dresses. Screaming matches and all she gets her way and is wearing a dress today that she has worn the last three days, its time for this mama to embrace her and go buy some dresses.

I am sure to keep up this blog once again with all the excitement that is to follow in the next few months..but for now Ill sign off!

Its been forever since Ive blogged!
It will probably be a little longer before I blog again!
But there are certain moments that need to be shared...

This is one of them, I want the world to see this little miss.

Miley (our dog) ate the lenses out of her sun glasses, she still wears them, apparently they still block the sun!

A date at the park with my two favorite girls and one of them that made me giggle<3

Preschool days

Well today was Zoes last first day of preschool!
What an exciting day!
Here is a look back at the last three years, oh how times have changed!
Of course today she didnt want to go, we switched schools and she was a little upset!

Happy Birthday Miss Hannah

Hannah turned 2 on Monday-
she is growing so much and is turning into quit the beauty!
I know she will be the brute of the family, but she is so pretty!
I feel like she is catching on so well, words, actions etc.
We love this little girl!
She is my little beauty and cant imagine life without her!
It was two years ago that she was born.
It was one of the hardest times of our lives, first she didnt breath for a 72 seconds, she was to big to come out and her collar bone was broken during delivery.
On her three day check up we found out that she wasnt eating, her BMI was a 19- normal is like a 2-5.....
after like a week of every 2 hour bottle feedings, being attached to an in home florecent light, and pricks in her foot this beauty charged through it and is almost surpassing her 4 year old sister.
She is a champ....

aaaaaaaa

What a busy few weeks it has been, Zoes birthday and the anticipation of our first nephew!
