Elmo and more!

Well, I was one of those that said "I don't need an i-phone...what would I do with that?" ...I ate each of those words when it was time for an upgrade around Christmas time! Dustin actually talked me into it! Now it has taken the place of my computer and unfortunately my Nikon!! I rarely get my Nikon out unless of course I want some nice photos taken with it. So, I recently figured out how to get the pictures off of my phone by plugging it into my computer. I have so many sweet pictures on my phone that I want to keep stored in a nice and safe place. :) ...My blog...
We recently went to see Elmo again with our cousin Macey! Oh how I love to repeat things year to year and see how their reactions change and how much more fun things become for them! We had a blast and the girls be-bopped around to the music and their favorite characters.

My precious little Trixie...

Camdyn had "Western day" at school a few weeks ago. They had a hot dog lunch(which she won't touch a hot dog but I'm guessing everything else tasted okay??) AND pink, purple and blue ponies that they got to ride on! She came home talking all about it and how the pony she was on sneezed. :) I made her outfit and I loved the way it turned out. Here she was trying it on the week before...

And on the real day it was cool so we accessorized with a long sleeve shirt and some black leg warmers-And of course her pony purse!

We have had such a great Spring Break and I'm not excited about it ending so soon. I do know that good things come to those who wait (ha!) and Summer will be approaching us very soon! We have spent a lot of time together as a family and lots of baseball games!

It is so enjoyable to take her to games! No chasing her around anymore! I get to stay the whole time and watch ALL of the game. I better enjoy it this year, right?!

Here is a picture of Camdyn falling asleep next to me. I love, love, love this time with her before bed. It's such a calm time for her and she opens up so much more to me than if we were playing or talking around the house. I have already told her that I promise to keep rocking her when the baby comes. I know I can figure out a way!


My two loves...I love them to pieces.
Up next...Spring Break-The Gaylord!

Our sweet little Texas peach!

Well, we have big news around this house that I have yet to share with the blog world!

We are expecting another beautiful baby!!
This precious gift from God is just as special to us as our big girl so I can only hope to be able to keep up with blogging about what I am feeling and all of the excitement going on in our house! I will cherish these books and the small details of their life forever!

I have always had a little "plan" for how I want my life to play out :)...I am not a very spontaneous type person and I always have to have a plan...that's the way I work. I also know that God has a plan for our little life as well and I completely honor that and accept whatever comes our way. After having Camdyn, I knew that I wanted our children about three years apart but if God wanted it to be four or five...I was okay with that too. :) Well these two babies will be 3 1/2 years apart and that makes me smile! I am so excited to have such a big helper when this other one arrives and for her to feel the excitement that her mommy and daddy will feel!
We found out about 3 days before Christmas. What perfect timing that was, hugh?!! Dustin and I were so excited and I knew Christmas would be the perfect time to tell our family. While opening gifts I put a picture of Camdyn (and Santa) in an envelope to each family member and they opened this at the same time!
There were tears and many shocked faces because I think they thought they were getting a cute picture of Cam and Santa! Isn't this the most sweetest picture?!! They look just like they are having a conversation about what great news has happened in our family.
I am now 13 weeks, which leads me into my PEACH...


We have seen her/him on the sonogram two times and I love it! Sweet baby is just like Camdyn and was upside down in the last sonogram as Camdyn always was...I like to think that this next one is going to be extremely adventurous and outgoing like Camdyn. :)
Tomorrow I go back for my monthly appointment and then the next time we go, we will find out what the sex is!! We can harldy wait!
