I Am Back!!

We are back on the blog!!! For some reason I was unable to upload pictures for weeks and actually took advantage of the "down time" and decided to rest instead of typing out updates!  But today it appears to be working again so I guess it's time I post something!

Baby is doing great still! It's hard to believe there is only 10 weeks to go!!!!!  The doctor appointments keep going well and I passed the gestational diabetes test thankfully, and now we are in the last stages of this pregnancy and it is going by so fast!  I am feeling okay...nothing horrible to complain about out the ordinary.  Lots of backaches, exhaustion, lack of sleeping, starting to swell, and feeling huge!! But that all comes with being in the last trimester and I know it is all worth it.  My c-section was officially scheduled for April 3rd, which is kinda cute...having Isabelle's birthday on a 3rd of the month as well. :)  We have the babies room mostly all ready to go.  Here are a few pictures.  :)  I have the name all ready to hang in these cute letters with pink ribbon, but we are keeping the name secret till she is born. :)


Here are a few pictures I have had of Isabelle and brother Simba from the past couple weeks. :)

Simba's sleeping spot has always been in the towel closet.  He gets the bottom three shelves. :) Isabelle loves bringing toys to him here!

Jumping off her step stool over and over :)

Simba's look-out from upstairs

Playing doctor on brother Simba.  She sure does love him!

We have also been doing Valentine crafts to get ready for Valentines Day! Isabelle made a really cute banner that is hanging on our fireplace now. :)

 We have made a few trips this month to the Cherry Berry frozen yogurt place right down the street!  Isabelle (and mommy) love it!


The past week and a half we have been somewhat home bound.  Last week both Isabelle and I were battling bad colds and coughs and spent lots of time at home resting.  Just when we were over those Isabelle got really sick this week and had the stomach flu for two days.  Our poor girl was throwing up all day Monday and into Tuesday morning.  Luckily she never got sick today so I am praying that she is all over this once and for all and that Kevin and I don't get it!

To help save many middle of the night bedding changes I had her sleeping on towels and blankets. :(

Luckily today since she was better I washed all her bedding and Isabelle had fun jumping into her piles of pillows and stuffed animals. :)

Well with the blog back up and running I will probably be back with our regular posts and Isabelle pictures :) 

Hope everyone has had a wonderful January, it's hard to believe its almost over!

  1. Cute!! You are on the ball with the nursery! Do you keep the changing table in the closet? I love that idea! -Heidi (Amy's friend) :)

    1. Hi-
      Yes I keep the changing table in the closet...did with ISabelle too. It works out perfect, saves a ton of room, and that way we can have a tall dresser to save space :) Plus their clothes are so short they don't get in the way :)
