Our Babes First Car!

Here's what it looks like besides the add picture I posted!


Remember Chris's first BMW was green with tan interior and so was mine... so our babies is the same!

Isn't it so darn cute!

Close up! This model the lights and turn signals work!


Here's a beautiful rainbow we saw at my parents house after the storm!

I posted a couple post below... make sure to check them out...One of Allie's new room and Allie's first day at Jr. High!

First Day of Jr High!

Allie is growing up too fast! I'm scared to raise our kids... they grow up way to fast! Well, Allie wanted me to pick her out a first day of school out fit.... but Chris wanted in on this too so we let him dress her... this is what he picked!

1st outfit... (and he thought he did ok....LOL) I told him he needs to learn a few things before he dresses our babies! haha!


Next one.... he put her hair like that too...



Allie with the designer..... ( you know a lot of designers to design bad outfits like this so I guess he is up there with the best of them)



The final outfit... (6:30 in the morning....can u tell)


We surprised Allie when she came home.... we went shopping for her!


A toast to Jr. High!

Reading her cards we gave her!

It was a blast and she enjoyed herself! She's growing up too fast and soon enough she will be an Auntie!

Allie's New Room

While I was busy being sick at my parents I was being productive too! Not only did we rearrange 4 rooms I also redid Allie's Room for Jr. High and beyond! Since I am changing the guest room into our babies room I had offered Allie my Ethan Allen Bedroom furniture. Over the first week I was there we got her new room finished. We also helped a friend move and a bunch of other things.... we stayed very busy!

Painting.... (I did the edge and they did the rest..don't worry I wore a mask so I
wouldn't breather in the fumes)


Allie helped paint and then after this wall color she wasn't allowed to see the rest! We left it for surprise!

Allie and I missing Chris!

Once Chris arrived home he got to work on her new fan... it wasn't working for awhile... it was a light outlet not meant for a fan and the beams didn't run so we could use a normal fan mount. We ended up buying tons of different options so we wouldn't have to make millions of trips to the store! It finally worked!


The paint guy who jumped into the paint!

Checking the strip for any touch up needed.... we finished the room for Allie by midnight so she could see it!

The designer of this project! (It was really late when this picture was taken)


And the finished product....








The cork boards were mirrors and I turned them into what you see now!


Her Picture section.... (the M is for Memories!)

Another angel of the bed!


Allie seeing her room for the first time! Can you tell she is excited!?



Chris and I also rigged everything by dimmers. She has rope lighting under the bed on a dimmer. Her bed side lamp is able to be dimmed from in bed. And her new fan is dim and controlled by remote! She is very blessed!

So we love her new room... do you!?

Bun in the Oven!

My tummy is growing.... I can feel it! Stretching away! This is a picture at 10 weeks......


Look at the button on my shorts.... you can see they are being stretched... and some people say I don't look prego... right!

11 weeks prego... It was late and we were both tired..that's why we look like blah!... We are very excited though!

What a babe!

So I went to my 2nd doctors appointment today. Very exciting for us! While I was there my doctor said she wouldn't be able to hear the heart beat so she told them I needed an ultra sound done. My assist is going down which is a relief and I am going to stop my progesterone. So hopefully I will start feeling less sick in the coming days! (Please Pray I do, I really need a break)

So I got the ultra sound done and baby's heart beat is 170. But the babe kept it's arms in front of it's face so she decided to do an ultra sound on top of my belly. This time baby decided it was time to be very active and kick and wave away. It was the cutest thing EVER! I am now measuring 10weeks 6days.

Here's our babe....

Here's teh shot from inside my belly.... Baby's arms are in front of it's face, you can see the eye's arms and legs and face structure pretty well. (yes it looks like an alien but you would too with clear skin)This is from inside my belly.

The baby was waving, kinda blurred because the babe decided to be so active. The white lines are it's arms in the air over it's face!


*Another view* The babe is chillin' is my belly. A view from on top of my belly.

Makes me want to hug the cute little one! It makes feeling sick help when you can see your baby in your belly swimming away so happy. It truely made my day!

10 weeks!

Here's some info on our baby....I am counting the weeks until my second tri. I have been SO sick today and lately. It's really wearing me down. Nothing sounds good to eat. We make something and I can't stand to even smell it. I am going crazy! Please pray for me! (chris just brought home some preggie pop drops... I am hoping they work)

I will post pictures once I get the chance..... I have my second doctors appt. this week. I am really looking forward to that, and so thankful we have made it this far. My belly is getting bigger by the week. This baby seems to be growing.

And a little baby info of this week for ya!

Though he's barely the size of a kumquat — a little over an inch or so long, crown to bottom — and weighs less than a quarter of an ounce, your baby has now completed the most critical portion of his development. This is the beginning of the so-called fetal period, a time when the tissues and organs in his body rapidly grow and mature.

He's swallowing fluid and kicking up a storm. Vital organs — including his kidneys, intestines, brain, and liver (now making red blood cells in place of the disappearing yolk sac) — are in place and starting to function, though they'll continue to develop throughout your pregnancy.

If you could take a peek inside your womb, you'd spot minute details, like tiny nails forming on fingers and toes (no more webbing) and peach-fuzz hair beginning to grow on tender skin.

In other developments: Your baby's limbs can bend now. His hands are flexed at the wrist and meet over his heart, and his feet may be long enough to meet in front of his body. The outline of his spine is clearly visible through translucent skin, and spinal nerves are beginning to stretch out from his spinal cord. Your baby's forehead temporarily bulges with his developing brain and sits very high on his head, which measures half the length of his body. From crown to rump, he's about 1 1/4 inches long. In the coming weeks, your baby will again double in size — to nearly 3 inches.

Morning Sickness?

Well, I threw up last night for the first time. I can't say I like throwing up but it wasn't as bad as I was expecting it to be. So, that was good. But it still hurt my belly!:(

Besides that very exciting news...lol... I am still getting stuff done at my parents. We are working on Allie's room at the moment. Getting it all ready to move furniture in from my house. Allie is getting my old bedroom set. Its not really old, it's pretty nice and it's from Ethan Allen! She's excited and so am I. I can't wait for the final look. It should look good. (I will post picture when I can)

And if you could keep us in your prayers. The big week is coming where the baby goes from an embryo to a fetus. Most miscarriages happen by these weeks. So keep praying!

Gotta go back to working on her room!

Ahh it's Hot Out!

So I am ending my 7th week of pregnancy and heading into my 8th. We are praying everyday God takes care of this little one. I haven't gotten morning sickness but I have felt sick to my stomach a lot and food just doesn't sound so hot. But I just keep eating away and it seems if I keep my belly full I do pretty well. I have been down with my family for awhile during this crazy heat wave but it's worked out so well. I have been able to start clearing out a lot of my stuff. We also have redone 4bedrooms in there house. So this heat is making me be productive, just somewhere else besides my house. But that's perfectly fine because I needed to get this stuff done before baby arrives! Yesterday My Mom and Allie were laughing at me because I was laying on the floor in pain.... not horriable pain.... just my tummy stretching. So I was kinda screaming and they were telling me to not make the baby feel bad. It was pretty funny.... but it didn't feel so great. It's nice to know that baby is growing though. It's now up to the size of a raspberry!
