fun on memorial weekend!

we spent memorial weekend at the coast with our friends and kids, the weather was great, the kids were hilarious, the boys caught fish and the girls got to get a way for some shopping and much needed pedicures to celebrate my birthday!  all in all it was a great weekend for everyone!!!!
the kids watching the boats come in..
this group of kiddos is so fun together, love are time with them!

cheeeeese!!!
the ocean was flat all weekend, so the boys took our tiny boat (in my eyes) out to do some ocean fishing.  they did come home with this cooler full of fish that we enjoyed eating!
LOVE this crew!!
these two are major trouble together!  its funny how we don't see them for months and they just pick up were they left off, giggling constantly and acting silly together.  and just so you know they posed for this pic...how cute are they? :)

20 weeks!!!!

well, i'm half way there!  
sometimes its crazy to think i'm half way to the end and some days its hard to believe that my belly has 20 more weeks of growing...yikes!  
finally a few pics of the belly...i know, i know i haven't been very good about keeping you updated, but my two little ladies keep me busy these days! :)

since i have been pregnant my body wants to wake up between 4:30-5am!  it really doesn't matter what time i go to bed, that is just when my little peanut wants to wake up! :)  i still have some nausea and dry heaving, but nothing i can't handle, at this point its just part of my day. :)  but, overall everything is going well, the baby looks great and i feel pretty good myself!

now some cute pics of our sweet little girl!
this was the first time i have got to see 3-D with any of my girls, i thought this one was just too cute!  that little face just looks so sweet to me!
here is the proof that its a girl! :)
baby footprint!
love this pic of her legs crossed...
face...
i have felt a little tiny bit of movement last week or so.  they told me in the ultrasound that she has a button nose, which we have been told with every one of our girls, so i guess they will all have similar noses! :)
as much as we are anticipating her arrival, i'm thankful we have 20 more weeks to prepare.  all of the sudden my list of to-do's for our growing family is starting to stack up! :)

t-ball girl!!!

we signed evelyn up for t-ball this year and she loves it!  since we live in such a small town the team is made up of 5-8 year olds.  so the skill level various a lot, but she is having a ton of fun and is all smiles weather she hits the ball, or catches the ball!  i love that care free spirit of this age! :)

 brian has been helping out a ton with coaching, it is so fun to see him out there.  



 ev with two of her preschool friends...i just love this picture, it totally screams GIRLS to me! :)
 i asked her if i could take her picture and this is the pose she gave me...too cute! 

 LOVE this...
 "good job team"

 the hand shake..
and that's a wrap!
so, so much fun watching this little tiger play t-ball!  and its even more fun watching brian out there on the field with her!  my girls are so lucky to have such a great dad! :)
