Baby Boom

One by one pregnancies have been announced this month starting with Owen and Staci and then my childhood friend, Rhonda. Next it was Brittany and the exciting news of identical twins. Within days I found out my cousin Jeff and his wife, Dana are expecting their first child and our friends Joy and Chris are expecting their fourth.






Then this morning I saw this:

























Even if some of the babies come early, October is going to be one busy month!

We already celebrate this list of birthdays in October -

Julia
Grant
My uncle, Mark
Sam
My sister, Kara
Both my Grandpas
Maisie
My college friend, Courtney
My cousin, Porter
My second cousin, Jasper
My mom
My childhood friend, Heather

My apologies if I forgot anyone. As you can see I have a lot to remember and only 3 from this list are written down anywhere.

  2. Wow!! I have goosebumps!! Congrats to Wendy and her family! Is that really how they "told you"? How fun and cute if it was!!! Funny, because I asked Wendy at your UB party two weekends ago if she was pregnant and she did give me a funny look as she said, "no." Hee hee! How great! I had gotten her confused with Staci..she didn't look pregnant or anything. Anyway, what a Baby Boom!!

    (Can see these photos of Bea but still not the sledding ones from yesterday.)

  3. isn't it crazy how it 'booms' all at once. I actually don't know many people expecting right now. Only 2-3 I think. I'm sure it will happen soon.

    i couldn't see the sledding pics either. :( It's probably blogger error.

"How can I help?"

So many have asked how they can help MckMama and her family during this difficult time and so I've set up a Care Calendar to help coordinate meals for the family. MckMama is coordinating childcare on her end, but you can contact me for the rest. Please leave me a comment in this message and I will contact you with more information on the Care Calendar as soon as I am able. Please be sure I can get in touch with you through your blog and/or an email address. Thank you for covering my dear friend and her family with prayers!

Elsa's Birth Story

The morning of July 1st started out like all the other mornings this summer. The kids let me sleep until 7:30 and then came in to wake me up. We ate breakfast and I started picking up around the house. We had spent the previous day at the town pool and because the heat index was going to be just as high again we made plans to go to our beach. The kids really wanted to practice their swimming skills but I didn't want to have to pay for the pool again. At 8:30 I lost my mucus plug and my brain started running a mile a minute. Could this mean we're getting close? Could I actually go early for a change?I turned to Google and learned that labor could be hours or days away. I feel I should warn you - if you decide to Google mucus plug be prepared to see photographic proof. Why people felt the need to post pictures to Google images is beyond me!  Moving on..... Just in case I ended up being one of the lucky ones who only had hours to wait until labor started I kept up with my clean

Shabby Apple Giveaway!

Spring is in the air and that means it's time to start thinking about changing over our closets from Winter to Spring. I don't know about you, but that also means it's time to look for a few new pieces to bring new life to what I wear year after year. Today I can make that job a little more fun for you because Shabby Apple is sponsoring a giveaway on my blog! Yeah!!!! I had so much fun looking through their collection of women's dresses and don't even get me started on their adorable line of little girl's dresses ! It's a whole new ballgame for me now that I'm going to have TWO girls to dress. In the end I decided to pick this beauty called Azure Coast to giveaway to one lucky reader because us mom's are always buying things for our kids before ourselves. I just might have to pick up one for myself in time to wear for BabyBear's baptism this summer. It's perfect for nursing moms! Want to win one for yourself? See below , but if you d
