belly to belly



So what is better then getting to see your own belly grow every week...? Getting to see your sisters belly do the same thing!

It has been so much fun being pregnant with Shalice. And to make things even better, my younger sister Sharielle just let us know she is going to have a baby as well!!

So all three sisters are pregnant at the same time. This is something we know won't happen ever again. We wish Shar lived here so she could be in the picture with us!

Shar, we are so happy for you. You are going to make a fantastic mom. Send us a picture of your belly so we can photo shop you in! Oh wait, you don't even have a belly yet. You can't play with the "big belly" sisters yet.

So here is to the "triplets" that are coming our way. What a wild a crazy summer this is going to be.

31 weeks


So I completely had mothers guilt about a baby I haven't even had yet?

While pregnant with Lyza I remember documenting the entire pregnancy. Taking pictures all of the time and noting big milestones during my 4o weeks.

Poor, Poor baby #2. I have already given him less attention. So at 31 weeks pregnant I am documenting my first picture of this pregnancy. Hopefully I can recommit myself to being a better mom to this unborn baby boy! We are so excited for this little boy to come into our lives. Lyza is probably the most excited. In her prayers at night she usually asks that "baby brother can come out of mommies tummy soon." Oh what a life change Lyza is about to experience!!!

So here is to being a better mom, to getting ready for another baby to come into our lives, and to enjoying the next 9 weeks of an ever growing baby belly.

we have a "snow white" down!

So I must share a hilarious moment! The other day Lyza asked me if she could have an apple to eat for a snack. Being very happy that she had chosen to ask me for a "healthy" treat I eagerly agreed. Lyza of course was in a princess outfit...for the moment she was "playing" Snow White.

I gave her the apple and went back to do whatever I was doing. Moments later I heard a soft voice talking. I went to the door of the room she was in and listened. This is what I heard...

"Snow White took the apple from the little old lady.
Pressed the apples to her lips (pause) and took a bite.
Snow White suddenly dropped to the floor."

I then walked around the corner to find Lyza...I mean Snow White...like this. (Luckily my camera was close by.)

After Lyza literally laid on the ground for probably a minute without moving, I asked her if she was ok. She said,

"Yes, I am just waiting for the Prince."

Oh to be two years old again and to have an imagination that doesn't ever stop.

Love you Lyz!!!
