More Catch-up

Women of Faith 2012

How Madelyn enjoyed it Friday evening.  Saturday she hung out with Daddy and Papa but Friday night she hung with the girls and enjoyed snacks and music and general lounging across people's laps. :)
 They had a fun little picture place set up with all kinds of dress up stuff and you just used your own camera or phone or whatever to take a group picture.
 I got a little carried away with my leaning and was actually falling just a little bit! haha
 You'll have to zoom this one.  They gave people like 2 minutes to get cameras out and ready and take a picture of all the speakers and stuff together.  There were a couple who had already left (like Mandisa, Andy Andrews, and I feel like I'm forgetting someone.) but otherwise we got Sandy Patti, Patsy Clairmont, Marilyn Meberg (sp?), Brenda Warner, Elisa Morgan (MOPS), and Amy Grant.

OK, catch up time . . . BIG TIME!

I'm almost too ashamed of how old these ones are to even post them but. . .

 One hot summer day at Nana and Papa's
 Note BOTH phones
 Riverside



 Fun with Cousins
 First bounce house experience. . . Jury is still out on that experience.

 Big stuff watching the animals. (note the junk in my hair. . . Jon provoked a lama [or that other thing that's a lot like a lama] and he sneezed all over us. . . Mostly Jon, but. . .)

 Just a cute moment at the mall one day
 Silly girl

 Road trip to New Jersey with Grama and PopPop for a wedding
 The ocean. She LOVED it!


 I know it's blurry and her eyes are closed but she was on the move one day with a bag on each arm.  She ran around the house that way for a while and I thought it was cute.
 Mama and Daddy's 36th anniversary.  Bud and Aimee were here and surprised them with a (very yummy!) cake. :)
 Peek-a-boo! She thought she was so funny and clever.

In Case You Hadn't Heard. . .


As you've noticed I haven't posted since around Halloween.  Long story short, it was around then when the extreme exhaustion kicked in.  Now I am feeling mostly better (not that I felt bad just tired) and have managed to recover the house from a couple months of letting things go and from the holidays, so now here I am.  And yes, we are far enough along to know that Baby is indeed a little sister for Madelyn and we couldn't be more excited!  This week is our 20th week and she is VERY active and healthy.  We almost were not able to find out that she is a girl because she was being very active and modest and an overall stinker (wouldn't have expected anything less after Madelyn. . .).

NOTE: The top U/S pic is a little foot.  The bottom one is from an earlier U/S.  You can see her from the back - head, back, limbs.  We have yet to see her cute little face because she hasn't been positioned right either time but the new normal at our Dr.s office is to have two other U/S so hopefully the next one (4D) will be the good one.

P.S.
Stay tuned cause I have a bunch of pix all ready to post and try to get caught up in the next few days!
