Oh boy Oh boy!

"This is the Lord's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes." Psalm 118:23

We are thrilled to report that we are having a little boy! Hope he is ready to have dollie parties, play dress ups, and do crafts with his big sister! We are so thankful that we got a healthy report from the ultrasound. When we asked Addie whether she wanted a baby brother or baby sister she kept on saying baby sister... when we told her that she is going to have a little brother she said no girl! No girl! Good thing we have a few months to help her warm up to the idea :) She has already come around... She is really in tune to the fact that there is a baby in my belly. She tickles my belly and says she is getting the baby, hands things to my belly, and tells it to come out. We are confident she will be an awesome big sister. We're keeping the name a secret but if you have any input feel free to let us know! I have to start getting busy figuring out how to degirl the nursery and make it boy friendly! It will be fun to give the nursery a facelift. Our hearts are overjoyed that our little baby seems healthy and we are excited to figure out how to love on a BOY!

Here he is:

A Magical Journey... ha ha ha

Back in November we took Addie to Disney World. It was a special trip because it was our way of celebrating me being done with school and passing boards, and spending time together as a family. We met my parents and Bry down there for a long weekend and had a blast. Addie was not really familiar with anything Disney so I had her watch Mickey Mouse before we went and started telling her about princesses :) She caught on quickly... We went to Magic Kingdom and Epcot. Some of her faves from the weekend: swimming around in the pool, eating ice cream Uncle Bry style, the fireworks display, the Dumbo ride and the It's a Small World Ride, Minnie ears, her snow white princess, meeting the Disney characters, seeing the parades, getting an umbrella, seeing the castle where the princesses live, the monorail and tram, the warmth and sunshine, sporting her shades, carousel rides, dancing around, and being the center of attention. Cory and I aren't big Disney people but it was really fun to see the excitement and awe that Addie had when we were there.

A future makeup artist


If anyone is in need of a makeover Addie will be more than thrilled to do it! I was putting makeup on, and she wanted to do the same, so I let her use an older lipstick pallet. I decided to let her do her thing and this is the final result. She went wild!!!
