30 Weeks Pregnant & Other Stuff!!

I have made it to 30 weeks!! I can't believe I only have 10 weeks to go. I am getting pretty ready to do this thing. This weather is unbelievable. I don't think it was this hot this early when I was pregnant with Emma or Leah, and they were both born in September. It has been HOT!! I have a hard time cooling off even in my air conditioned house!! I have enjoyed the girls being out of school, and being able to do things with them this summer. Next summer it will be a whole different story!! Updates on the baby: The doctor thinks the baby is breech, but she told me not to worry, the baby still has plenty of time to turn. Also I am measuring 2 centimeters ahead. Looks like I may have a bigger baby this time. Both Emma and Leah were right at 8 lbs. Time will tell!! Todd is out of town for 2 weeks, and then we will be in crunch time trying to get everything done. Todd has been really busy getting the painting done. The girls have been moved into the bonus room and are really excited. They are in their new bunk beds and are really enjoying them (Thanks Granddaddy and Grandma Tee, and thank you Kenneth for out growing them!!)All of the walls in their room are pink except one. We (Todd) painted one wall green and blue for a hill and sky. I am going to paint some flowers on the wall with the hill, and I have some paintings that I painted on canvas that match their bedding that I am going to hang on the wall, just have to put a couple of finishing touches on them. Things are coming together, but we still have some work to do. Here are a few pictures from there new room!! They are tickled pink, ha, ha!!!As Todd was finishing up painting Emma and Leah's room, I asked him if he would like to take a break from painting or would he like to go ahead and paint Sara Beth's room. Quickly he said, "Go and get the paint, let's get this done." I had the paint waiting on him when he got home the next day. He doesn't enjoy painting to much, although he does a great job. I am so blessed that I have a wonderful husband that will do things around here that I like to have done!! He is a hard worker and I couldn't ask for a better husband!! Here is a picture of what Sara Beth's walls look like. I don't have everything in there yet, like Emma and Leah's room, we still have some work to do in there. I will update soon with some more pictures, once everything is more together. Look in the box and you will see a sneak peek at what the bedding looks like. It is called Love Birds. It is very sweet and I can't wait to get my crib set up and the bedding in there. Also in the works is the curtain. I picked out the fabric this weekend, and can't wait to get it made and hung up!! I also ordered a very sweet vinyl cling to put on the wall with Sara Beth's name on it. I am eagerly waiting for this to arrive in the mail. Things are coming together nicely. This is such an exciting time, and the baby will be in her room before we know it, which makes it even more exciting!!

Who's That Lady??



I can't believe how different she looks!! Every time I go and get my hair done, Leah wants to get hers straightened (they have spoiled her). This past time, Emma was able to go with us. She is usually in school. By the time we left they had trimmed their hair, straightened Leah's and sprayed glitter in their hair. Needless to say they are ready to go back!! I can't believe how much older Leah looks with her hair straight, and how long it is. She told Todd she didn't like curls anymore, and actually cried when I made her wash her hair. I have to say I like the way she looks with those sweet little curls better.

This Child of Mine!!

Leah always cracks us up. I was just folding a load of laundry and the tv is on. A commercial came on for some shaving cream. Of course it showed a woman's very pretty long legs, tan, smooth and non-pregnant!! At the end of the commercial Leah looks at me and says, "that what you need, when I touch your legs, they are too spiky for me." THANKS ALOT LEAH!!! Oh, this child of mine, what am I going to do with her??

Cute!! Cute!!







Here is the latest from the embroidery machine. All for Sara Beth!! I can't wait for her to get here so we can use them. I can just imagine how cute she is going to look in that onesie!! I am 24 weeks just in case you were wondering. We have 16 weeks left, and a lot to get done around here. We are planning on putting Emma and Leah together in the bonus room, but before we do, we have to have someone come over and build a closet. A friend from church is going to come and give us an estimate this week. He told the girls, the better the cookies, the better the price. I told the girls, we were going to pull out all the stops!! After we get the closet done, we will have the carpet replaced, and paint!! Anyone want to come and have a painting party?? This is no small job, the bonus room is HUGE!! I am sure the girls will love it once we get it all together, it is just going to take some work. They have been trying to convince me to paint each wall a different color, lime green, bright blue, and hot pink. I don't think I am going to be able to do it. When I try to show then more muted colors, they just get upset!! Oh, joy! I am not going to be coming up my stairs and seeing those colors resonating down the hallway!! I am all about keeping them happy, but I can only go so far. We will see who wins!! (it will be me!!) Any ideas???

Preggo Update

(excuse the no makeup and wet hair)

Here is a update on the baby bump!! I can't believe how big she has grown already. I am already 23 weeks. I can't believe that either. We made it through our Sea World/Disney trip a couple of weeks ago, and boy was I worn out!! It took days to recover. We had a great time, but I am not ready to go back anytime soon. We were gone 9 days, and I don't know how people stay at disney any longer than that. On the last day I didn't think I would ever get Leah to get up. She just wanted to sleep (so did I)!! Here is a picture of all of us outside our favorite restaurant O'hana's. It is the best food we have ever had. We ate here last year, and we had to eat there again. Some of us wanted to eat there twice!!
YUM-O!!!!!!!!!

Baby # 3.........

Today was a big day!! We had an ultrasound to check and see if everything was developing with the baby the way it should be. We were thrilled that everything looked great. The baby is very healthy. The doctor said that he would be very surprised if we had any issues come up. We were also able to get some really cute pictures of the sweet baby. This one is a profile shot and looks like the baby is saluting. It was just perfect. She gave us a couple of copies of this one, so Todd took one to work to show the guys!!
Also, they were able to check the sex of the baby.... and what you are all wanting to know.......we are starting a savings account for all the weddings we are going to be responsible for paying for!!! We are having baby GIRL # 3. We are really excited, and are looking forward to meeting this sweet bundle of joy. Her name is Sara Beth.
After the doctors appointment, I went and picked up the girls. They were thrilled that it was a girl. They have both been wanting a girl the whole time. We went and had lunch, and went to Kohl's to do a little baby girl shopping. Here are a few things we picked out (some of the outfits were on the clearance, I am all about a bargain!!) Can you tell Leah is thrilled??
