36 Weeks! I made it!

I did it!  I finally made it through all the awful progesterone shots.  I made it to our goal of 36 weeks.  The best part is we are still cooking.  When will she come?  Only God knows but I know I am close.  She feels like she is going to fall out anyday now!

Halloween Night 2012

I know you have been seeing a Spiderman costume on Wesley.  But at the last minute he wanted to do a costume change and wanted to be Thomas.  At least we wore Spiderman right?  Well the boys had so much fun going door to door collecting candy.  Their buckets were full!  Success!

Wesley's Halloween party

I really don't know what I was thinking signing up for a kids party in my last month of pregnancy.  I couldn't go to the party becaues I have sprained my pelvis by putting Wesley in time out.  I have been in so much pain and I am not allowed to lift anymore.  So I made the food and my mom took it to the party for me.  Thank goodness for my mom at this time because I have a feeling if she wasn't here little princess would come sooner.

Little Halloween fun

Well I decided to give it all I could give in giving the boys their best Halloween. I took them to the Southeastern Train station for Train or treat.  They had such a good time collecting candy in the different trains and then the costume contest.  Nate had a hard time not understanding why his Angry Bird costume didn't win...LOL.  Then we made our haunted house.  Let me tell you I am not sure if I will ever buy this kit again.  It was a total mess but that doesn't matter.  The boys thought it was super cool.  

Boys are going to be Ring Bearer's!!!

After the Burt's pumpkin patch Leah asked the boys to be in her and Michael's wedding in April!  They are going to be so cute I can't wait!

Burts Pumpkin Patch 2012

We made it again this year to Burt's and we brought Leah with us!  It was so great to have her there and share this experience with the boys.  It was a beautiful day.  We finally did the hay ride this year.  It was commical but the boys loved it.  The pics are the best part of the pumpkin patch.  Wes's face in our family photo is AWESOME!  He doesn't like getting his picture at all!  Another family tradition in the books!

St Brendan's trunk or treat

 It is the annual Trunk or Treat at St Brendan's.  The sad part is you will not see Wesley in any of the pictures.  He is home sick with a fever.  I was so sad to leave him home sick.  Broke my heart and his.  But the trunk or treat was a HUGE success.  Nate even collected treats for his brother to take home.  Such a big heart.

Wesley getting his big boy bed and boys sharing a room

Well I think reality just set in that I am going to have a 3rd child very soon.  We borrowed my mom's twins beds until we decide to move.  We do have enough bedrooms upstairs for everyone to have their own room but one is over the garage.  That room is always hot in the summer or very cold in the winter.  And the noise from the garage opening on a school/work morning would mean early riser in that room since it is so loud.  So what better way to have these boys have a very special bond and hopefully remember all the good timeds sharing a room.  I got them their names monogrammed on their pillows so they think it is very special.  Wes did great.  He LOVES his new bed.  He just wants you to snuggle with him for just a little bit.  The 2nd night into the room I will never EVER forget.  By now it is very hard for me to get out of bed.  Well when you hear a loud THUMP and scream, I don't think that I even realized I had a baby in my belly.  I jumped out of that bed so fast that it scared Brad and he ran and followed me.  Here I find Wesley on the floor.  He moved all the way down to the end of the bed where the bed rails didn't reach (note picture above).  What was a blessing about all of this is that he didn't fall off the other side of the bed.  The other side of the bed is a tall dresser.  Very close to the bed where we have to turn sideways to get through.  If he fallen off that side it would not have been good.  So immediately when Brad got home we changed the room around once again.  Put his bed against the wall and the other side of his bed with 2 bed rails going down one side.  Now I can sleep better at night and so can Wes.  

The nights of giggles and them playing puts a smile on my face.   

Cumming Fair 2012

This is the first year that Wes got to go on rides at the Cumming Fair.  I had LeeAnna Welsh go with us once again since I am so pregnant and trying to keep up with both of them.  They had an absolute blast.  Wes did get scared on the motorcycle ride but did great on the rest.  Can't wait till next year!

9 weeks left!

Baby girl Hanna checked out perfect today. So perfect I have been released from the specialist and no more ultrasounds. 9 weeks left!! Weighs 3lbs 12 oz.

SK Tennessee Shower SURPRISE!

What could a girl ask for....3 really great sisters that love me no matter what.  Here I am having my 3rd child but finally a girl and they shower me with PINK!  I loved everything I received and all the surprises.  It was a perfect shower with just the 3 of us and mama Bean (and Camille and Calese of course).  I love these girls to the moon and back.  Sigma Kappa love always.

Nate and the class dog Max

Nate classroom has a pet dog named Max.  Max gets to go home with you for the weekend and you take pictures of his adventure and share it with the class on Monday in a notebook.  Well when Nate brought him home I was like oh geez the weekend that I am out of town.  So Maw got the pleasure of taking care of Max in Monroe.  I bet Max has never been there before.  Here are some photos we took at home before his weekend with Maw.

Play ball Nate!

First of all I would like to give kudos to coaches that teach 4 year old boys.  These boys have an attention span of 2-3 minutes.  Keeping them focused is so hard.  Nate did a good job for his first time at a sport.  He got better and better by the end of the season.  He even scored a few times.  The pics above are his first hit, first time on base and first score.  Go Nate!

Waving hello

Here is our baby girl waving hello.  26 weeks today. 10 more weeks of progesterone shots. She weighs 2lbs 2oz and a week ahead. Life is good!

Nate's all about me poster

I think it turned out pretty cute.  Just thinking how much this poster will change in the next few months when baby sister arrives.  We did add a sonogram picture of her.  I would just like to wrap this up and keep him this small forever ;)

First Day of School 2012

Starting another exciting  year of school!  Nate has Mrs Amy and Mrs Kerri.  Wesley has Mrs. Patti and Mrs. Marti.  They were so excited to start this year probably because they were bored of their momma.  They both picked out Angry Bird back packs and lunch box.  They walked right into their classrooms without looking back.  This will be Nate's last year at St Brendan...sniff sniff.

All About Me

When we visited open house Nate already had homework to do.  We had to create a poster for the first day of School All About Me.  I got this idea off Pinterest.  Since Nate loves trains and cars we decided to do a new pic with a cool hair do.  They turned out cute!
