Baby #3 14 week appointment

Today was my 14 week appointment.  Now to bring everyone up to speed, I've been spotting off and on the entire pregnancy and of course it worries me every time I notice it.  So I was nervous today. 

I've lost 7 lbs now, and I blame the diabetic diet I am on. It is hard at times, but knowing that it keeps this little jellybean safe and healthy does make it easier! 

The Doc couldn't find a heartbeat and instantly I was brought back to my 14 week appointment with the twins. The Dr. left to see if I could get into the US room to check and I cried.... she told me not to worry, but I couldn't help but think that things were not going to turn out good.

I got into the US room and THANK GOD she found the little bean wiggling all over.  The heartbeat was 152. 

I go back in October and can't wait for my next full ultrasound at 22 weeks.

1 Year Old!

Our little man is 1 year old!! Where has the time gone??

Yesterday he woke up at 8:15 am and had a simple breakfast... we were going to do the Zoo, but with the rain we decided to try Chuck E Cheese instead. We all were singing Happy Birthday to him all day, and Olivia kept ticking him saying "Happy Birthday Little Man".... it was cute.

We ventured out around 1:30 pm, stopped in at the Mall first in Lima to return a few things and then off to Chuck E Cheeses... and once we arrived there was no keeping him off the floor. We sat next the Toddler Area and he was able to climb up and down this little play area just his size.

We all ate Pizza and both Olivia and Everett ate a lot!! After that we went from ride to ride... Olivia did a great job at picking rides/games that Everett could do with her... which made it a lot easier.

Everett started rubbing his eyes and showed some signs of needing a nap. Off we went to Aaron's new truck and home we ventured. They both napped on the way home...Aaron and I held hands and just smiled.

Life has been very good to us!! We are very lucky to have a roof over our head, 2 beautiful children and such wonderful family and friends in our life. I am able to stay home with our kids full-time and experience all of Everett's new milestones. Olivia is starting school in a few weeks and I don't know what I'll do with out her here Tuesday and Thursday mornings... I'll miss her so much.

Next Saturday is his Party, we are having it at my parents house. They have a very nice outside area and the weather is going to be fantastic!!

Happy 1st Birthday Everett John.... we love you!!!!

Choo Choo



We got down some of Olivia's old toys the other day... Everett has a new favorite!!

"I Love My Brother"



Olivia is in love with being a big sister to Everett. They do so well together, playing, eating, bathing and even laughing.... on this day she was holding Everett and said "He's too big now". It was cute. On this day home, Olivia wore her swimsuit all day... girls!!!!!

April 27, 2011 - Elmo Live


We had the pleasure of attending Elmo Live once again. It had been 2 years since we were there last and it was a BLAST!!! Olivia was soo excited. Before we went I found a video online for a preview and ever since she saw that she was hooked!! All through out the show she clapped, cheered and sat with her mouth wide open.... it was fun for Aaron and I too. We kept telling her it was Olivia's date night with mommy and daddy!!



April 24, 2011 - Easter Sunday



Big helper Olivia helped Everett with his basket. He was just in aww of it all. We did church and then lunch back with here with my parents. We had a great day and even ventured outside after naps to ride our new golfcart and raced Olivia some in her gator!







April 23, 2011 - Easter Egg Hunt



We decided on the egg hunt last minute...and so glad we did. The weather was beautiful and the kids did great. Olivia and daddy did eggs while Everett and I followed cheering them on. Afterwards Olivia played and and we all enjoyed the sunshine.













April 23, 2011 - The Easter Bunny Came!


Olivia and Daddy went to clean the church the night before Easter. Everett fell asleep early, so I thought I'd play Easter bunny early. I am terrible at keeping gifts until they are to be given. So I got their baskets out and then took eggs, filled with candy and made a trail to the baskets from our garage door. When Olivia came home she was super excited!!! She picked up all the eggs to find her basket.... her "aww look" was priceless!!! She got a fishing pole, Pink Cowgirl boots, swimsuit, flipflops, Cinderella Pez, and lots of candy!! Everett got his basket on Easter morning.... puffs, clothes, and a Tractor Book.












April 12, 2011 - Easter Bunny


As soon as Aaron got home from work we loaded up and ventured to the Ottawa library to see the Easter Bunny. Olivia was all excited until she saw him.... but Everett had no problem :) The pictures speak for htemselves :)
