2.5

alomae,

you are almost 2 and a half!

and I swear you get cuter every day :)

I love you!!!

24 weeks

(this is what she does when you say "strike a pose!")

the sun was out again today,

and we sure do make a big deal about this in oregon!

alomae woke up from her nap and was ready to play!

as you can see, I did not make her change :)

just over 24 weeks now and caught a glimpse of my shadow while outside chasing alomae...

I am expanding for sure!

feeling great...yes

feeling pregnant...yes

have a long way to go... yes

getting more excited every day to meet this new baby girl.. yes yes!!

We love Alomae so much and I have to admit the thought of loving another

little person as much seems pretty much impossible...

but people say you do :) and I am going to trust them!

could I possibly get something as special as alomae X2!!

8 years

tuesday was mine and Andy's 8 year wedding anniversary....

the sun was out and we have a 2.5 year old

so we spent it at the zoo...

:)

Alomae had a great time taking it all in on daddy's shoulders!

we didn't have a babysitter like we had hoped for dinner

so we had good ol' BBQ where alomae could color, talk, be silly

and eat mac & cheese to her little hearts content!

Russell Street BBQ is seriously good if you enjoy

authentic tasting BBQ

looking forward to another 80 with you Andy!

xoxo

dads

I have the best dad...

and he is the the best Papa too...

he is truly great!

~

I also have the best husband!

Alomae loves her daddy more then I can say...

Happy Fathers Day!

the sun came out...

and we went out to play!

we may live downtown and not have a backyard.

but the front courtyard serves as a wonderful place to explore...

etsy baby

I just love etsy.

I have been able to find some great finds for the new baby!

just got this adorable boppy cover- though I had it custom made

in grey chevron with a grey minky back!

so nice to have one that does not scream "baby" when sitting on your couch.

beautiful burp rags. Alomae never spit up but they are nice to have around...

praying this baby does not either!

diaper clutch- at 2.5 I still use the one I got for Alomae

(though it is getting old and needed to be replaced!)

I am sure I will come across many more great hand made

things before this baby makes her debut in fall..

22 weeks

well, here she is!

(22 weeks 2 days)

the ever growing belly...

we are definitely having a growth spurt right now and I am waking up bigger every day!

Thank goodness for the gym... really!

it had made me hardly feel pregnant at all by helping me

stay flexible, moving, and strong! Even despite the

growing bump!

*note- I thought andy was taking belly shots which is why I am staring off

into space in some of these! I had no idea my face was in the shots :)

love them

I so love this little girl...

and this man!

we are on vacation (spent 4 days in sunriver and now a few days at home)

and enjoying much needed time together!

22 weeks pregnant now

and still doing good

I'll take some pictures soon!
