Boat Show

Since I’m on bed rest, Van took Ashley to the boat show this morning.  It was a fun thing for them to do and a good excuse to get out of the house.  He sent me this picture and said “We bought one.”  LOL

 

33 Weeks

I am now 33 weeks pregnant.  Yep, I’ve hit the home stretch.  And boy am I ready for this little guy to get here!  There was the cutest little 2 month old baby boy at MOPS this week and a friend of ours just had a baby boy a couple of weeks ago.  So I [...]

 

Chick-Fil-A

Chick-Fil-A is our favorite food!  In fact, I’m not ashamed to admit that we go there at least once a week (hey, don’t judge a pregnant woman )  Ashley calls it “Moo” (for the Chick-Fil-A cow) and can spot the nearest one from a mile away.  It’s hard not to pass one at lunch time [...]

 

Crib Assembly

The little guy’s nursery furniture was delivered this week!  Wahoo!  We received everything but the chair (which should come early February).  Luckily, the dresser was already assembled.  So all Van had to do was put the crib together.  It was such a surreal experience having Ashley here to help us.  All I could think of [...]

 

Dad's Surprise Party

The World From the Eyes of a 2-Year Old

We had our last music class today and guess what my little girl did?  Her ba-ba’s!  If you read my earlier post about music class, you would know what I’m talking about.  She went up the the teacher, held her hand, and SAID her ba-ba’s into the microphone all by herself!  I was super duper [...]

 

Daddy's Little Helper

Ashley is such a big girl and loves to help Van and I do anything around the house.  She likes helping me cook in the kitchen and has recently become interested in helping Van with fixing things around the house.  Van installed a couple of new light fixtures and Ashley wanted to help him, especially [...]

 

Ashley's Angel

Our church puts out angels every year at Christmas time.  You can purchase one and personalize it any way you wish, i.e. in memory or in honor of someone.  They put them around the nativity scene on the front lawn and their candles light up at night.  You may remember that we bought one in [...]

 

Christmas 2011

We had a wonderful Christmas!  I hope you all did as well!  Ashley got lots of toys, books, shoes, etc.  Now we are just trying to find a place to put them all!  Her big present from Santa was a Strider Bike.  The concept is that if a child can walk, they can ride the [...]
