Baby Lizzie

My sister-in-law took these adorable pictures of Lizzie today. I think they are so cute! She is so talented at photography and she does such a great job. Her website is www.rayofsunshinephotography.com and there is a link to it under my favorite websites on the side if anyone wants to check out her portfolio.

She's finally here!

These are just a few pictures (I will post more later!) but I wanted to get a few up for now. Elizabeth is such a sweet little baby. She hardly ever cries and she is so content all the time. Her big sister and big brother just love her. Jacob is doing a lot better than we expected and Annalyn is just a little mother. Everything went well and we are so glad she's here healthy and happy.

No Guilt Whatsoever

Still pregnant...but while I'm waiting for this little one to get here I am having no problem with comfort food. I haven't gained nearly as much weight with this pregnancy as the others, but I am clueless as to why because of this:

and this:

and this:


Ice cream is dairy right?
It"s healthy right?
Peanut butter has protein in it, right?
I know my due date is just over a week, but still ladies, you get to the point where you are done.
Sleeping isn't an option for me now anyway, so I might as well being feeding her or rocking her while I'm awake.
So still here, still pregnant and still hoping that I will still love ice cream when all is said and done because I've definitely had my fair share of it the last 9 months.

Our 8th

Today is our 8th anniversary! I can't believe that we've been married 8 years already. The time has gone by so fast and I swear each year goes by faster than the last. I am so lucky to have a husband who makes me laugh every day just by his funny and outrageous personality. We've dealt with a lot of thingsin these 8 years, as every marriage does, but I am so happy to know that we can get through hard times and love each other even more after its all said and done. Its also amazing to me that we can still learn so much from each other even when I think we know everything there is to know about one another. I love you Cody and I'm excited for all the years to come with you!

6 More Weeks

As I am coming to the end of this pregnancy, I have realized even more that mom's will go through anything for their children. This has been such a different/stressful/tiring/hard pregnancy from the very beginning. Everything has been completely unexpected with this one compared to my other two and it has kind of thrown me for a loop. Nothing has been the same as my other pregnancies. But through it all, I know I would do anything to make sure this little girl gets here safe and healthy. It's amazing to me that we are priviledged enough and trusted enough to carry these babies through pregnancy and then take care of them after they are born. I am so lucky to have two special little children in our home already and I am so excited for this third one. I am so lucky to have a husband who loves our children and is such a wonderful father and husband.

So yeah, one of the unexpected things of this pregnancy that I didn't get with the others is my high, uncontrolled emotions and how easy I cry now! This is one of my emotional moments. I thought I would share.
