Bluebonnets 2013

...it's a Texas tradition and a good excuse to take some pictures. Hadley loves loves loves being outside. If we ask her if she wants to go outside she shakes her head yes and runs to the back door. She would stay outside all day if we let her. So for her, going to the bluebonnets was a real treat; she didn't want to leave! She gave us plenty of smiles since she was so happy to be there!

21 Weeks

Sure, it's a little harder to take pictures of my belly this time around... but the cuteness factor makes up for it all!

How far along? 21 weeks
How are you measuring? roughly 37 1/4 inches
Heartbeat? at our 20 week appointment the heartbeat was around 140
Total weight gain/loss?  +14 lbs
Maternity Clothes? I've been in maternity clothes since about 16 weeks
Stretch Marks? No
Sleep? I'm doing pretty good sleep wise. Stress is making me loose more sleep then this sweet baby is.
Best moment this week? Shane and I were laying on the bed and I asked if he wanted to feel the baby. I could feel a bump where the baby was so we gently pushed on him and he kicked back. I told Shane to pick up his hand so that we could try to see the baby. The sweet boy gave us a show! My belly bounced up and down several times! I couldn't help but giggle. This is where pregnancy gets fun!
Movement? Everyday is different on how much he moves, but he is definitely moving around in there.
Food Cravings? I can't get enough chocolate milk and late night cheerios.
Name? I'm beginning to wonder if we will ever narrow it down to one name. We have tons that we are "considering" for our son. Let's start with mine... I like Sawyer, Asher, Graham, Davis, and Brooks. Shane's current favorites are Nolan, Brennan, Brooks, Asher, Lincoln, Reese, Noah and Jonah. Obviously, we're still thinking about it.
What I miss? caffeine
What I'm looking forward to? Selling our house
How are you feeling? Tired and blessed.

Little Mister

Hadley has some news to share... 
she's going to be a big sister to a little brother!!
We are thrilled to grow our family and can't wait to see our Haddie girl take on this new roll of big sis. She's going to be such a great helper to mommy and daddy and I know that little guy is going to get tons of kisses!

Here's our little man from our 20 week sonogram appointment. He kept his arm up by his face the whole time! It was so fun to see him finally. It's crazy to think that we are half-way to meeting him! Second pregnancy goes by tons faster then the first!
 Proof that our little man's a man. Better believe his daddy has been passing this 
picture around the fire station... 
Sweet profile. Again, with the hand up by his little face. 
 Here's the out-takes from Hadley's announcement. Our sweet girl is so active now-a-days that
it's hard to get her to sit still for pictures. She was obviously VERY excited about 
making this announcement!
