Are you Twitterpated?

Hannah hasn't seen the movie Bambi in a long time but all this talk of Spring lately has sparked her memory... She asked me the other day if it was Spring yet and I said yes. She then said, "You are twitterpated! I'm twitterpated! Everyone is twitterpated in the Spring!!!". What, you don't remember what twitterpated means? Here is a reminder:


Here is Hannah trying to explain twitterpated...

Donuts with Daddy!

Today was the day Hannah and Jason have been looking forward to....Donuts with Daddy! Both of them have been pretty pumped up about it and they had a blast! The kids gave their Daddies a picture magnet of them dressed up in "Daddy clothes" and a precious poem about a Daddy and his princess. Then they sang a few songs and visited a little bit. Jason had pretty strict instructions to take pictures and video the singing. So...enjoy! :)

According to Hannah...

Hannah and I were looking at our weekly babycenter email this morning and when she saw this picture she said, "Look Mommy! It is a girl!!! See? It doesn't have a tinkle! We are having a baby sister!"


Poor girl! I know she will be happy with another brother but she is so excited about the whole sister idea.
She also told me last week during one of our frequent its-ok-if-this-baby-is-a-boy conversations that "It will be OK if this baby is a boy. We just won't give-up...."
My sweet girl.

William still doesn't really have a clue. Sometimes I ask him where the baby is and he will point to my stomach. This morning however, I said, "Where's Mamma's baby?".
He gave me this pitiful expression and then patted himself on the chest. Good thing he loves babies! I know he will be thrilled when little one #3 arrives!

Dancing Fools!

Hannah has been on a huge ballet kick lately. She loves to make up moves and put on performances for us. Some of her moves are pretty funny... :) Here is a video of her dancing. You will be able to tell that she doesn't much like to share the spotlight...Something we need to work on! But don't worry, William will have his time to shine next...

William jumped up next and wanted to take his turn!

Wordless Wednesday

Love at Life's First Little Wave!

Catching up!

I'm finally to a point where I can start our updates back again. The first trimester "blah" feeling and the exhaustion got me all out of whack and I'm just now starting to catch up. Its not just the blog updates I have fallen behind with...its also the laundry...OK, actually ANY housework, cooking dinner, the bills (don't worry Jason, no late fees!!:)), the list goes on!! But I finally feel like I can breathe again. The house is getting to a controllable state and I am cooking again! But its like now that I am feeling in control again, I look at the calendar and realize I will be 20 weeks pregnant next Wednesday!!! Excuse me? I feel like we just announced this pregnancy! There's no way I can be that far along!!! But, it's true! We have our big ultrasound scheduled for next Wednesday morning. I'm afraid I won't be sharing any exciting news though because we are still determined to keep this baby's private parts private. I have always thought it would be cool to wait but I couldn't do it with the first two. I had to plan things out! But now I will have a June, July and an August baby and I already have one of each so I literally have everything I will need!
I also have a very special cousin who will be the only one to know the gender. She has graciously volunteered to decorate the baby's room with the appropriate bedding and clothing and then put a big fat lock on the door to keep out inquiring minds. I am so very thankful for this as that was the only part that was semi-stressful to me. Yes, I have all of the bedding, clothing, blankets, etc but I would still have to get everything set up after the baby came. This way I won't have to worry about it! Thanks Leslie Anne for taking on this very important job!!! ;)
OK, so now enjoy a few posts from our last few months! I will do my best to keep updating more regularly!!

Just some pictures

We have definitely been taking advantage of the beautiful 60 degree weather we have had over the past week and a half (until the rain yesterday...)! They both LOVE playing outside but I have definitely had to make sure all doors are locked since William can open them now. Hes constantly trying to sneak back outside.
I haven't taken too many pictures but I have to share these of William. I really went in to grab the camera so I could get cute pictures of them playing outside, I was gone for 2 minutes and this is what I found. William and Hannah thought it would be fun to play in the grass clippings pile in our garden from last year. He had grass everywhere!!!!

These pictures of Hannah were taken a while back but I love all of her faces! We now play the "Show me sad...", "Show me happy...", "Show me surprised..." whenever we are trying to get a good picture of her. Its hysterical!!!
