25 Weeks


With only 15 more to go. I feel huge and I'm only going to get bigger. This pregnancy is flying by quicker than my previous two. It has also been the hardest for me physically. I guess that's to be expected when you have 2 kids already demanding so much.
I'm getting a little worried about taking on 1 more child, and I'm dreading the lack of sleep that occurs those first few months. If I don't get good sleep most of the time I get down.
I'm already nesting. Each Saturday Matthew has a "To-do" list of things I just cant do.

On a different note. I have really wanted to spend less time on Facebook posting status updates, posting pictures etc. and do more blogging and well...just less computer time in general. I've been getting kind of down and I think Facebook has something to do with it. So you might as well look on here if you want to know what I'm up too, even though I will continue using FB occasionally to spread the word.

What's in a name?

There are 2 names that I really like to name baby number 3, but they don't go well with my last name. They are:

Eden and Megan.........

Sounds like "Eating Snow" and "Making Snow". I am having a hard time coming up with girl names that my other half likes. We have one name, I need a few more. Suggestions Welcome.

Christmas {finally}




Merry Christmas a few weeks late :). We had a nice Christmas with simple presents. On Christmas Eve I went to a place in town that sell's gently used children's clothing etc. and happen to see a toddler bed for sale. We've wanted to get one so we can have the crib ready in May for baby. The bed was a present for Hannah.

Benjamin really got into Christmas this year. We counted down each day until Christmas Eve. Fun.

We had no snow on the ground Christmas day, the picture of Hannah was taken a while back. She loves playing in the snow until her gloves come off, then she's done. Cold hands.

Felt Playhouse

I am making one of these for Ben's birthday next month. I got the idea and instructions from Homemade by Jill Mine will probably not be as elaborate, but still FUN! I already have the flowers, squirrels, and veggie cut out and ready to sew.

One of my goals for this year is to make homemade gifts for family.

One BIG mess



So this is what my kids did while I cooked dinner the other night. Can you guess who got to clean it up? Yep..THEY did. Too funny though to not take a picture. Notice in one the curtain is up, the next gone? Wow my kids are crazy! Keep your doors locked people..keep 'em locked.

New Years

Happy New Year. We spent the evening relaxing and having ice cream sundae's. The kids were in bed by 8:30 pm and so was I. I know party pooper! But alas at Midnight fireworks and people shouting woke me up. It sounded more like World War 3! Honestly people do we need to act this way?
The kids in their cute PJ's they got for Christmas.
