Jammin

The boys had a jam session this am!

Sunshine

We got out Owen's Christmas gift from Uncle Dan and Lisa today. It was great :) I was a little apprehensive about putting on a swim suit though. Good thing nobody saw me in there!

I guess now we have to have a pool party!

Thanks Uncle Dan and Aunt Lisa!!

Rain

We had a nice thunderstorm this evening and Owen got to play in run off along our road. He loved it! He kept saying it was like a beach at our house. Poor kid needs to get out more ;)

And here's Chubb with his dazzling smile :) and cookie face!

Preschool Picture

Owen brought his pictures home from school today! They turned out very nice. Of course he is such a handsome boy how could they not? June 4th is his last day!

29 wks 4 days

Although I am feeling the aches and pains and discomforts of being pregnant I still really feel like the belly is on a stand still. My last picture posted was of 24 wks and it doesn't look much bigger to me in this picture. I really hope she is growing in there!!

Garden

two posts in one day... this must be your lucky day! I just wanted to add some shots of our blooming garden!

There is a cherry tomato growing on our plant already!!

Our potatoes! That's not even all of them.

Weekend recap

That was a long weekend. The boys had a blast! Friday night we were out at one of my friends houses for a little camp fire. Owen was excited because her mom is one of his teachers at school, Dee. Saturday Owen and I went out to country memory days in McVeytown to see Grammy at her craft show. It got very warm! Sunday we had a cook out here with meme and pops and uncle Dan and aunt Lisa. Monday we were out by the river at a cook out with some of Tyler's friends. I didn't get many pictures really because I was being very lazy this weekend. I just can't seem to kick this stomach bug I have. I hope everyone had a beautiful and fun filled weekend!!

Brett's phone converstation.... Dialing

"Hey man what's up?"

"Oh crap... I totaly forgot!"

BUBBLES! sorry they came out blurry because they were moving to fast I guess.. unless its just my stupid camera again!

A Picnic!

The boys had a picnic yesterday afternoon. They loved it! Then they went for a swim and a buggy ride! :)

DelGrosso!

After spending the night up sick right into the morning I still managed to rummage myself out of bed and spend a great day at DelGrosso with Daddy and Owen :) Owen had a blast and didn't want to leave.

This was some kind of kids roller coaster. It went on FOREVER! Owen was getting very bored.

The helicopters were his favorite kids ride

He loved these little fish too!

Daddy rode the dizzy dragons with him and this other little boy.

Bumper cars!

Mommy and Owen on the train. This was the only ride I was allowed on. You would never know I was sick!

He loved the scrambler too!!

Getting ready!

So a few people have been asking if we need anything for the new baby to come and in all actuality we have enough that we can survive. However that answer never goes over well so I compiled a small list of things that I was planning to purchase just because I feel this little girl needs some pink in her life. The only things I have bought so far are a handful of 0-3 month outfits. They are all mostly warm-weather outfits also. I was refusing to buy newborn outfits knowing that they only go up to 7 1/2 lbs. Both boys never fit into newborn clothes. Now that this little bean is on the smaller size I am second guessing myself. Aunt Stephie did get a few items in the newborn size for us (Thank You!). So anyways here is the list:

The only things we NEED : Crib mattress and Fitted sheets (Brett is using the crib mattress we used for the boys on his toddler bed. I wasn't planning on getting a whole crib set because we don't have a nursery to decorate so it doesn't really matter to me but we do need more fitted sheets. I was also holding out because I was hoping that by some miracle we would get bunk beds for the boys and move them into their room before baby came. However... There is first off the cost issue and second off the sleep issue. Both are a very big obstacle!)

Non essentials : baby girl blankets (receivers mostly or swaddle blankets)
Diaper bag ( I like this bag called bumble bags busy bee in red. http://tinyurl.com/onfz9f It's a bit pricey though so I will have to shop around on ebay or amazon and see if I can get it cheap somewhere. I am very fond of the back pack style bags.)
Bottles (I haven't decided if I am nursing or not yet. I probably will for at least the first few weeks. I haven't picked a certain kind out either. I know I don't want ones with drop in liners... those dang things get expensive!)

There isn't much else I can think of right now but I will be sure to add to the list if anything comes to mind ;)

Weekend Festivities

We had a very busy but nice weekend. Saturday Aunt Stephie, Uncle Adam, Oliver and Jason came to visit until Sunday afternoon. We cooked out and played outside between rain showers. We also went to the boys great grandma Hunters for a big birthday cookout! Owen had a blast with all the kids and riding 'toys' there. We cooked on the fire Sunday and had corn on the cob and mashed potatoes for Tyler's birthday lunch! The boys were exhausted last night.

Chubb thought it might rain

This was Friday morning before my appt in Danville. Owen decided he wanted to sit in the toy box so he emptied it and Chubb just happened to be in the middle of the pile toys! He didn't even notice.

Jillian

We had a very good appointment today. Jillian is still measuring in proportion and growing nicely although she is on the small side. The doctor wants to see us back in three weeks to check on her growth further. They got some pictures of her face with the 3D ultrasound and it was so neat! The pictures may be hard to see but when she was doing the ultrasound we could see her opening her mouth and sticking out her tongue! She also showed us a nice picture of her girl parts so we are now 100 % sure she is a she :)

3D of her face. You can see her hand pretty good laying on her cheek there on the right side of the picture. Her nose and mouth kind of blur together a bit. She has her mouth open :)

same pose only you can see more eye detail, there closed. You can also see her other arm on the left side and part of her hand on her other cheek. Mouth open again. It was very cute!

And this one is of her foot! Both are there but you can really see the one.
