7 Months With Baby Chayce

Here's me at 7 Months (Approx January 15th). I'm really starting to grow. About a week after this picture I was told that Chayce was in the 70th Percentile for her size and she's growing about 2 weeks ahead. Something tells me Mommy is growing even more ahead - I'll get measured again soon. We get another Ultrasound on Presidents Day (Feb 16th) to check her size again so that will be fun. And although I passed the Glucose Test with flying colors (For Pregnancy Diabetes) - they found some glucose in my urine so that in combo with Chayce's size (which is typical for my kiddos - Reagan was also 2 weeks ahead) has them wondering SO, if they see it again I get another Glucose Screen. Probably 3 hours long so THAT would be AWESOME! Ugh. Well we'll update next month!

6 Month Belly Pictures

So I'm 6 Months pregnant now and obviously growing! Chayce is doing great and Mommy is as well. Not too many complaints, a SUPER itchy belly, some acid reflux, noisy digestion and just starting the aches and pains at night mostly from awkward sleep positions. I gained a tad more this month but not too bad considering it's the Holiday Season.

Christmas Day

Christmas Day was spent with both families. We were out from 8am-7:30pm (juggling 2 locations over an hour apart). It made for a long day but it was worth it and we all had a great time!

Christmas Morning

We had a beautiful Christmas Morning celebrating the Lord's Birth. We prayed, read the story of his birth and discussed it, we sang Happy Birthday and ate the cake Reagan and Mommy made for Jesus and of course opened the gifts Mommy and Daddy bought.

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was spent at Heather's Aunt and Uncle's again this year. We headed over after a Beautiful Christmas Eve Church Service. It was so great to see everyone and celebrate.

My Poser, My Performer and Heather's Cousin's Little Girl Brooke. They had so much fun!

CHEESE and nothing but trouble in the background

Wild Lights at the Zoo

We had so much fun at Wild Lights this year. It's been a tradition for Jake and I since our first year dating which makes this our 11th year okay, 10th. We didn't make it when Reagan was a baby. It was kinda cold but no one seemed to mind.

Waiting to go in while Daddy buys the tickets (yes, we will buy online next year like we have in the past)

First Big Snow of 2008!!!

The Girls have been loving the little snow flakes Mother Nature has been teasing us with but TODAY was a Big day and we had a blast playing outside in it! They lasted longer than I thought - I was impressed. I'm sure we'll be back out tomorrow! Brrrrrrrr!

I'm determined to get this bike through the snow

Yay! I LOVE this stuff!

"Mom - Look at my Snow Angel"

Taylor decides on her own that she wants to try a Snow Angel as well!

Look at those Rosy Cheeks!!!

5 Month (and 1 week) Belly Pics and. . . . .

Okay so - here they are. This is me at 5 months (and 1 week - that 1 week can make a difference) and I'm even still brave enough to wear Horizontal stripes! Go me! =) The Top 2 are my CURRENT pregnancy - taken at 21 weeks. The bottom 2 are my pregnancies with the girls. Please excuse the wonderful photography work by Jake. He gets annoyed at doing this every month but always smiles when he looks back - even when he immediatly looks back.

5 Months Pregnant with Taylor (Man, I look Thrilled)

I tried Prego this night

So, I typically use Classico but thought I'd try Prego for a change and. . . . .it was obviously a hit with Taylor. My FIRST ever experience with Spaghetti hair! I was in the restroom and I hear "OH NO, TAYLOR!!!" And this is what I came out to.

Gotta lick that Plate clean!

She seems so innocent

Uh Oh! LOL! he jumped in the bath before I even had a chance to change her. =)
