Let's catch up!

Here are a few pictures from the past few months.  I just looked at the blog and realized it has been over a YEAR since I did a blog post!  Shame on me.  I am going to try to do better so I can document the new little one's journey just like I did with Stella.

So, what's new?  Stella is now 4.  My little tiny "queen bee" is growing up fast!  She is still in preschool and loves to swim, dress up, and play with her barbies and ponies.  We are expecting our second child, a BOY, on August 8th.  I am about 33 weeks now, and this little man is very, VERY active!  He gets really excited when people rub my belly.  I think he wants to show off his dance moves!   We really can't wait to meet him.  Stella always kisses my belly and asks, "How's that baby brother going?"  He's great, sweet girl :)  She also makes funny faces at my belly and then asks,  "is my brother laughing?"  So cute!

We have decided on a name for our little boy.... but we are waiting to tell everyone until he is born!  Most everyone understands and can't wait to find out.  But I have gotten a hard time from a few people!  It was more of Taylor's idea to keep it a surprise, because I get so excited to tell everyone.  Now that we have waited, I am really looking forward to the big reveal :)

So far, our summer has been VERY low key.  Taylor says he loves when I am pregnant because I am at his speed... hanging out at home and going to bed early!  Don't worry though, I will be back to my social self before long.  I think there is a margarita somewhere on Dickson St.  with my name on it!  :)  The only thing I haven't gotten into is turning duck calls.  Keep me away from the heavy machinery... I am WAY too klutzy!  I know Taylor loves to get out there and make them, but I think a lot of it has to do with being out in his garage/shop with some peace and quiet (a.k.a.  away from the girls for awhile!!)  The finished duck calls are just a bonus!   I will post some pictures of his handiwork soon.  

I will try my best to keep this going, but if I slack off.... blame it on my pregnant brain!
