No news...

We went to the doctor this morning with hopes of hearing that our new little man would be joining us soon. Unfortunately, however, he has decided that he is nice and cozy in there and isn't quite done cooking! So, we have an appointment for next Monday if nothing has happened before then. If necessary, they will induce me next Tuesday. I am hoping that he decides to make his appearance much sooner than that, but clearly, I am not controlling this little man!

Until then, I am trying to stay busy and positive!!!

We will keep you posted!

7 DAYS!

It is hard to believe that we are nearing the end of this pregnancy so quickly! We expect the little man to make his grand entrance any day now! I am one week from my due date, but I am already 2-3cm dilated and I feel like my stomach has dropped! I have had subtle contractions throughout the last couple days, but nothing regular or painful.

My mom arrives tomorrow afternoon! That has been my goal~ to hold off til she could get here. We have nearly done that, but I am not sure I will go much longer! I have an appointment scheduled for Monday morning if I have not been admitted yet...

I will do my best to keep you all updated over the days to come! Please pray for a safe delivery and a healthy baby!

A great visit

Andrea got to spend part of the weekend with us last weekend and we had a lot of fun! It has been so much fun living in this area as we have had so many visitors!

Here we are with the token belly shot at 38 weeks!!! And a sweet picture with the kiddos. They sure to love Miss Andrea!

Last time Miss Andrea visited Ian got upset because he didn't get to do everything that he wanted to do with her before she had to leave. So, this time they sat down the very first day and made a list of the things that were important to do. Andrea was such a good sport. She played with K'nex guns and any other toy that the kids felt she needed to experience. One of the other important things was spending time on the trampoline together. I didn't get any pictures of them all together on the trampoline, but they had a great time!!!

As you can see, there was so much to accomplish that they didn't even have time to get dressed before they got to work. Isabelle was still in pj's!

Ian had plenty of tricks to show.

and Isabelle did her best to not be outdone!

Thank you for coming for a visit Miss Andrea! We look forward to seeing you in a couple months!

Playtime with Mr Dennis

We were happy to get to see Andrea's parents last weekend also. I am pretty sure that Mr Dennis probably slept pretty hard after playing so hard with the kids. They love their time with Mr Dennis (and the candy that comes along with him!) Thanks for spending the evening with us!

One of the Big Girls

My wonderful friend, Andrea, got to come visit last weekend. We got to spend a girls day together last Friday and she treated us to a pedicure. Isabelle also got her fingernails painted. She definitely felt like one of the big girls! She proudly picked out her own color and held very still while she watched her nails be painted! I am sure she will be asking to go again!

Another Dress

Here is a picture of another dress that I managed to complete for Isabelle. She loves it because it is very twirly when she spins!

Flower Girl Dress

Last week I completed Isabelle's flower girl dress. She is thrilled to be in Uncle Ben and Jamie's wedding in May!

I know the dress looks a little big on the top, but it wasn't zipped all the way in the back because I have to make a few minor adjustments to the zipper (I HATE ZIPPERS!!!) but

otherwise it is great on her! She loves it and is even more excited about the wedding now that she knows what she is going to be wearing!
