"Devin And Sister's Room"

Well nothing is set in stone yet, but I have a good start on "little girls" side of the room. So Devin and her will be sharing a room for a while, so they can both be close to mommy and daddy :) So Devins side if you all remember is very boy with fishing decor, take a look below......

So as for "little girls" side we are going with a zoo theme. On her wall it will read: Goin' to the zoo with mom... there will be a purple elephant on one side, and an orange giraffe on the other. so I have a preview picture below, no writing on the wall yet, but try to envision it :)...

These are some bibs that my mom bought baby girl for her 1st halloween, in my belly anyways :) I would love some opinions or thoughts on the room. any opinions of how I can spice it up cute would be great thanks!

Baby Girl Results

Good news so far everyone!!! No preeclampsia at this point, I am so excited. Doesn't mean it can't still show up, but I want to keep a positive attitude on it for now. I would be happy getting a baby to 36-37 weeks at this point, so fingers crossed I will get a full term baby girl this time. She is already sassy and stubborn, I have a feeling she isn't coming out anytime soon :)

"Baby #2 Update"

ok well this is a good and bad update. Iwill give you the short version of the story. Im 18 weeks almost 19 now. So on Tuesday evening I noticed I had a little bit of swelling in my ankles, not alot but enough that I noticed. So I pressed on my ankle to see if there was any indenting, which usually means some water is there. Well sure enough there was and I ofcourse freaked out inside, mainly because the same thing was happening when I was pregnant with devin. So I called my doctor on Wednsday morning, and they immediately got on the situation. My doctor ordered a 24 hour urine sample that I had to do from home. So I started that Thursday morning (today) I take it back into my doctor friday morning, then have to do blood as well. The urine is to determine if there is alot of protein present. It is one of the main beginning signs of preeclampsia. Anyhow I should hopefully have the results by monday, possibly Friday late afternoon. I will keep you all updated to let you know where things are at and how they are going. Wish us luck, I really am not in the mood for another growth restricted baby in the NICU.

"The Football Team"

I just realized that I haven't posted are little family in our halloween costumes. Devin had to wear his cute little helmet anyways, so we decided to make him a football player. I was the cheerleader, and chris was the coach. If you cant tell by the photos he is a fan of BYU. Are fist halloween with devin finally here was so much fun, last year this time he was still in my belly :) we just went to the grandparents houses, and to some friends houses to see their cute baby. Look how cute below Devin an Linkoln look.

So this next one is the whole family, are own little football team :).........

We then headed up to see the grandparents aunties and uncles, that was so much fun for everyone to see Devin on his 1st halloween. Enjoy all the pics below.............

"Devin's First Pumpkin Carving"

This was so much fun to do with our son this year. Ever since I have known chris, which is 9years now. His family has always done pumpkin carving every year, I have always loved this tradition. This year though was even more special, because it was with our little Devin. Chris and I decided to do it our house and have both of the grandparents over. They ofcourse were so excited to be there for Devin's first pumpkin carving. These pictures below were the start of the evening getting all the pumpkins ready...

So once we got done doing all 7 pumpkins 4 of them were Chris and I's. We made a little family of pumpkins this year, and added accessories to describe all of us. So this picture below in order is chris, me, devin, and the new baby girl :) I know I know kind of cheesy, but I have kind of become that way now that I am a mom. I feel like I have become a kid again myself, and I have to say I am loving it. Christmas will be the best this year I can't wait. Sorry I went away from the picture :) enjoy it below....

"Game Night"

Chris and I would do game nights here and there with scrabble before little devin got here. It wasn't often, but it was a little more in the winter time when there is nothing to do. So the night started out really good, and cute little devin was being sooo good as usual. Well that was true until he went into a tantrum out of nowhere yikes!! It was a good one he was just screaming and crying. I tried the binky, I tried pacing, I tried rocking. Nothing and I mean nothing was calming him down. Finally Chris and I layed him down on our bed and started reading him a book, we didn't know what else to do. Well if you can imagine something as simple as the book worked lol. I think it is so funny because really nothing else was working for my mad little baby. We read him the book "The five little pumpkins" he loved it. So it was a nice thought for chris and I to sit down for game night and popcorn with no interruptions ( yeah right ) :) Enjoy the pictures below of our fun evening!
