26 weeks

These aren't the best pictures of my ever growing stomach. However, it is ginormous! My stomach feels so tight so I am sure I am going to get stretch marks this time around :( Mason was able to feel this little guy move last week! It was so cute!! So now whenever the baby is moving he puts his hand on my tummy to try and feel the baby. I love my boys!




James has been gone so much lately. He has been studying for his finals for 15 hours a day! We really miss him, but we sure do appreciate all of the hard work he does for our family! We love you James!

22 weeks and Halloween

I LOVE being pregnant! I love being able to feel this little guy move more and more. I love always thinking about what he is going to look like, what personality he is going to have, and always wondering what his name is going to be. For those of you that are wondering, we still don't have a name picked out. We have it narrowed to 10 names, which is a great improvement. We are only going to narrow it down to 2 names and then when he is born and we see what he looks like, we will pick out a name. This is my belly at 22 weeks. My belly button is getting ready to poke out. I can't wait!!



Yeah, so pretty sure I can't see my toes anymore. This is my view when I look down.


I know I am very late with posting Mason's Halloween pictures. Better late than never though right?
He absolutely loved his dragon costume! He loved saying trick-or-treat at all of the houses, and he was very good at saying thank you! He seriously got so much candy and shared it with mommy and daddy very well.

It's a BOY!!!!!!

We are so excited to be having another boy! There is nothing that seems cuter to me than watching my 2 little boys play together! I am already imagining everything they are going to do together.
I couldn't get my scanner to work but after much determination I finally got it! I turned the pictures on my computer but they are still coming up sideways on here. If you tilt you head and look at them sideways though, they are the cutest ultra sound pictures ever! I hope you enjoy!

Take it easy little one! I think he was really excited for us to know he was a boy. There was no holding back!


He had his hands up by his face the whole time and this is what happened.


Oh it looks so yummy if only I could get it in there.


Got it!

And his cute little foot! We can't wait to see what he looks like. Do we have another James look-a-like on our hands?

What will it be?

Okay, we find out what we are having monday! I thought it would just be fun to see what you guys thought. So just leave a comment and let me know if you think it is going to be a girl or a boy! CAN'T WAIT!!!!

Shee-ca-go

We went to Chicago this last weekend and stayed with James' brother Kevin, his wife Heather, and thier adorable "baby Liv"! We wish we could have stayed longer but it was still a blast! We went downtown both days we were there. The weather was perfect, and we lots of really yummy food! There are a lot of pitcutres so you are prepared in advance.

I wanted him to smile so this was the face he was doing. A little bit like his father?


I don't know the official name for this wonderful piece of art, we call it the lima bean. We had a lot of fun taking pictures by it. It is so cool!






I think we actually look a lot alike in this picture! I NEVER thought I would say that!

We love making funny faces together.



They had Victoria's Secret wings up and down the Magnificent Mile. We had a blast taking pictures in front of them! If only I could look as good as they do wearing them.


This the only picture I got of Heather and Liv :(


We had so much fun with you guys! Thanks for letting us stay with you! Hopefully you can come to Ann Arbor soon!

pictureless update?

Sorry I am so boring with blogging lately! I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and everything went great! The baby's heartbeat is in the 150's and there are no problem's. I had to get all my blood work done right after my check up so that kind of sucked! But the best news of all is...
we get to find out what we are having October 26th at 3:00!!!!!!!!!!! I am so so so excited (if you can't tell)!! We don't really care what it is. We aren't hoping for one over the other. Although Mason says he wants a little sister, which I think is just adorable! He will be the best older brother and will be very protective!
I will be posting pictures soon. We are going to go to Chicago this weekend and visit my in-laws! We are so excited to come visit you guys!! So I will post pictures from our trip and possibly even post another picture of my ever so growing belly!

15 weeks

This is my wonderful bump! I told my mom and sister I would post pictures since they can't see me in person :(
I cannot believe how big my stomach is getting this early on! I wasn't this big with Mason until I was 5 months pregnant. It will be weird to see how big I am in 2 months to compare. I have been able to feel the little flutters in my belly as the baby moves! I love it!!!!!! (Sorry these aren't the best pictures)
