Pink or Blue Either Will Do, We're Expecting #2!

Lizzie is soon to be a big sister! We are so excited to be having another baby! The two little sibs will be 21 months apart and, hopefully, great friends as well.
The big due date has been officially set as JULY 21!!

Well, here's my real reason for being so sluggish at taking pics and blogging lately. I am 13 weeks along and so far I have been EXTREMELY tired and a little more sick than I was with Lizzie. I can't complain though because overall I have felt pretty good, except for the extremely tired part.

Also, this little baby is a big reason why we started movin fast with the house buying! I did not want to be packing and moving all our stuff at 9 months pregnant or anything close.

Dave and I are both impartial to whether or not its going to be a little girl or boy but I do have a feeling its a boy? We'll see... Either way we are so excited to have another little addition to our family!

Family Update

I have been really bad lately about blogging and taking photos so sadly I didn't have a holiday post or anything lately, but since this is our "family journal" I thought I better post what we've been up to!

Christmas- We spent Christmas with the Stevens family and had a great time! The Christmas Eve program was a lot of fun with the kids re-enacting the nativity, Christmas games, white elephant, stories, etc. Lizzie was very excited to open presents and had fun pulling items out of her stocking. We had a great time going to movies and spending time with family.

New Years- We then flew to the Washburns and spend New Years Eve in Chicago! We had our traditional fondue and got to talk to Trevor, who's in Russia, that night. Then, we celebrated my mom's 50th birthday! The whole family was there by this point and we spoiled her all day with gifts, food, and partying. Lizzie had a great time with her grandparents! It was also nice to spend time with the newest member of the fam-Brandi!

Lizzie Updates: (14 months old)

She has 2 teeth and 2 more on the top that are almost in! She's a late bloomer in regards to her dental development. :)

She got a potty for Christmas and....
she has successfully used it!!
I am just barely introducing her to potty training because she is so excited about it all but we are probably just going to take things slow since she is still pretty young.

The New House:
The deal is closed, the old owners are moved out, and we have started painting walls and picking out new carpet! We are VERY busy packing and working on our new house lately. Sooo excited for moving day... soon!
