time flies!

Oops! I guess posting got put on the back burner.....SO I figured I would do a quick update while I wait for Tim to get home from an Eric Church concert at the beach......since soon updating will def be the last thing on our minds!

The kitchen has been (is still in the process of) redone since my last post. new counters, new floor and fresh paint! it is almost finished. hopefully by next week. Mom and Dad have been coming up to help get the house ready....now if I could get a maid to show up overnight and get it CLEAN.....hmm. no chance I know... since we are under renovations throughout the house its really messy...but the baby's room is done. so its ready for him and thats the impt thing....
We also sent our "foster puppy" home this week. I miss her because she REALLY was a good dog, and Rascal has been sad since she left.....but it's nice to be able to walk to the back yard and pet my dog without him getting jealous because someone else is standing near me!!

Baby Boy will be here soon! we are excited and nervous all at the same time. We have just about everything we need and it's a good thing since we are down to 2 weeks and 3 days about.. Majority of the family thinks he's coming early...and I know his Uncle Billy wants him to come before he has to go back to Afghanistan.... Everything has been good so far. I'm def swelling alot more and that's getting kinda uncomfortable so hopefully he doesnt decide to hang out for TOO long... The last dr appt went well. I measured 36 weeks, even though I was 37. I was dialated to one cm and baby is head down but not engaged. so we will see what they say at the next appt--if we make it that long!

We spent last week in Denton, and Tim counseled camp..while I visited as much as I could. I HATE when I cant get out there! the camp was smaller which was nice in a way....but at the same time a FEW more kids would have been nice too! Well I guess that is all the updating for now... I need to go work on this house!!

Updates!

So I thought that I'd be on here sooner to get some pictures up but I didnt get a chance...
here is our updated basement after the lovely pipe burst.....



And here is the updated belly pic! I can't believe that it's already the 3rd trimester.

2 down 1 to go!!

Yesterday was my first day of the 3rd trimester! It's crazy how quick this has gone by but at the same time there are moments when it seems like it is dragging! I plan on trying to post a bit more today or in the next couple days..the basement is practically finished so we have new pictures of that....and some other things to post. Hope everyone is doing well!

unexpected renovations...

SO a couple weeks ago we came home from visiting mom and dad only to find a busted pipe in the basement. The ceiling was soaked as was the carpet. Thank God for homeowner's insurance. We called our ins and they came to look at it the next day. So this week we start EXTRA unplanned renovations... They will be fixing our ceiling, repainting EVERYTHING and new carpet. I'll have to post pics as the work begins. For now. Here's the damage. (I haven't posted pics on the updated bathroom simply because it's still in progress....as are many other rooms)

CONGRATS!!!!!

Just wanted to say Congrats to Daniel and Mindy...
Cecilia Ann was born tonight at 9:13pm weighing in at 8lbs 2 oz and 22 in long. I can't wait to go meet her tomorrow!!!

It's a BOY!

Adding another boy to the family! Maybe Ill trade the dog in for a female pup so Im not so out-numbered?

Our Crazy life is right!

I went to do an update and realized I NEVER posted on this blog about our addition! SO Here you go guys!

For those that may not have figured it out/heard by now... Tim and I are expecting an addition August 3, 2009. So far things have been ok. I had some severe morning/all day sickness for quite a while but that is all gone (Thank goodness!). Recently I have been having some blood pressure problems. One day at work I had to have someone take over my class because my b/p was WAY to high... 160/90..and the nurse was too worried. So we had a little scare and I ended up with a dr appt. It is/was completely job related and my dr put me on some medicine to help avoid going the not working route. So far so good- and I haven't had to take the medicine too often. I am def starting to show and everyone is working on their guess as to what we are having. Tim and I REALLY don't care either way but we do have our preferences as to what we would like first... But we also know we are so blessed to be able to bring a child into this world that boy or girl will make no difference to us! We have already chosen names but do not plan on telling until the baby is here. We go on March 10th to find out what we are having and we cannot wait! We have started working on ideas/gathering things for the nursery but do not have too much yet..Peter rabbit is hard to find! It's definitely going to be a great year! 2 of my best friends are also preg...Mindy is due in April, and Tiffany is due 6 weeks after me! There will be babies all around! I promise to try to update this thing more often but there's so much to get done and we seem to be busy every weekend. SIGH.... I will def update once we know what we are having..and possibly add some pictures later.
(I will get the pictures of the remodeled upstairs bathroom up at some point too!)
