HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SWEET GIRL!!!!

I can't believe that Miss Addyson Blair is 4yrs old today!!! It's just seems like yesterday that I was bringing her home from the hospital! Now she has grown into a sweet, smart and Beautiful young lady!

Happy Birthday Miss Addy!!

We had her party last Saturday at our house. Her theme was Little Mermaid! Her cake and cupcakes turned out to look so awesome! We had the water slide and new her pool that she got for her party for the kids to play in!! They all had a blast even though it was HOTTTT!! We served pizza for lunch and the kids loved it. She got several wonderful gifts from her friends and family. Thank you to everyone that help her celebrate her 4th birthday!!!!

The water slide is always a huge hit!!!

Even brother got to get a little bite of the cake!!!

Zoo Trip!!

Last month we took the kids to zoo in Ft Worth. This was Addy's 2nd time at the zoo and Kiptyn's first. We worried about the weather being to hot but it was actually a nice day. We all had a blast. We went down on Friday so Addy could swim at the hotel and trust me she did some swimming. We went to eat a wonderful steak at Hoffbraus and then over to Menchie's for some yummy yogurt! Then back to swimming after dinner. We got up and headed to zoo Saturday and spent most of the day there. They have so many different animals and we got to see everyone of them. Except me and the kids skipped the snake house!Addy loved feeding the birds! She could have stayed in there all day!Mr Kiptyn was a trooper! We tied a fan to his car seat and he was happy all day. He did sleep through most of the zoo trip.

we loved the monkeys. I love how Addy and him are looking at each other! After a long day at the zoo we headed back to the hotel to get ready to eat, then back to Menchies and then yes of course back to the hotel to swim!!!! I can't wait till our summer zoo trip next year!

Look Whos Back!!!!!

Wow its been a while since I have blogged! I have been pretty busy the last 3 months with a new baby and a busy toddler! A little updating here. Mr Kiptyn was born on March 25th. He has been a perfect baby. He loves to eat, sleep and very seldom does he cry. He sleeps trough the night usually going to bed between 9 & 10 and wakes up around 6:30. A couple of times this week we have had to wake him up at 7 to go. He stays with a wonderful lady who has been so good to him. We love Ms Cathy!! He has already been on several trips for a 3 month and does great in the car and hotel. He has been to Marshall, Ardmore, Shreveport, Ft Worth and other places. He has even made his first trip to zoo and did great.

Now big sister has kept us busy also. She does love her baby brother and loves to help. Her favorite thing to do is change diapers. I know I cant believe it either but she does. She had her first dance recital in June and did awesome. she is still doing her routine! I had tears watching her for the first time on stage because she looked so cute and know there are many more recitals in the future. She wrapped her year in the 3yr old room and now moving up. she is growing up to fast. She loved going to the zoo. (I will post about it later.)

Well hopefully I will get back on track now and start updating on a daily bases about our busy life!

I have several pictures of them on facebook!!

2 Days

Wow, I can't believe today is my last day at work for 8 weeks! I went to the dr today to confirm everything for Friday and got pre-registered at the hospital. I can't believe they had to have 6 tubes of blood. Really people my iron is already low now you are taking all my blood lol!! It's going to be one early morning for us on Friday. We have to be at the hospital before 5:30am.

Luckily tomorrow is going to be a fun and great day. Me and Addy are having girl day!!! She told me this morning she was going to miss my belly but was ready for Kiptyn to be here. Then she said can he just stay in there just 20 more minutes. I wish that was all but it's 2 days instead. I am really looking forward to our day tomorrow. She already told me we were going to lunch and painting our toes.

I really can't believe that in less than just 2 days we will have 2 babies. Please pray for us that everything goes well and quick. I am really dreading the spinal but I know it will all be fine this time around to. I can't wait to see who he comes out looking like. Will he have auburn hair like Addy did (which is now blond) or brown like his daddy or red like mine. I am so excited and so nervous at the same time. Stay tuned for more baby updates and pictures......

Here are some photos of Addy when she was born. The top photo is us headed home from the hospital

Her first week at home!

Baby Update 37 weeks

I went to the dr today for my 37 week check up. His heartbeat was strong and everything was great! He got me really excited when he told me they thought about moving my delivery date up but then he said they couldn't. The reason for moving up the date is because one of the doctors will be out of town that day. But with me having a boy they can't take him any earlier so he is going to bring in another doctor. So we are still having him on March 25Th! He seemed to be fine with my iron level and my feet swelling. I only have 10 working days left and 2 1/2 weeks left till he is here!! I can't wait! Plus I can't wait until the day before because me and Addy are having a girl day. We are going for pedicures and lunch. I know we will have a blast!!

It's starting to get real....

Oh my reality has really started to set in! I can't believe in just 24 days we will have another baby. I told myself Friday that I was going to stay home all weekend and rest but that didn't happen. Addy, my mom and myself went for a pedicure on saturday. It was so relaxing!! I could have set in that massage chair and let her rub my feet all day long. Until it was over. I looked over at my mom and said I can't feel my feet. My legs and feet stayed frozen for several hours. I have no circulation at all. We continuted to go eat and then to Wal Mart and still didn't get better. Finally about 4hours later I was pretty much back to normal. I am ready for the feet to go down, this swelling is no fun.

Then it is all getting to me that I will no longer have just one child to share my love with but two! I am wanting to spend every second that I have with Addy. I worry how she will feel about sharing mommy now. I know she will be fine but I still have to worry. She is so excited for him to hurry and be here. So trust me every chance I get we are doing something together.

For today my back pain is killing and so is everything else. I am so ready to go to the dr in the morning to see if we can move things up. I am a little worried that he is going to put me on bed rest. Please pray that he don't.

Also on Sunday Addy and Pops hit the golf course not to play golf but fly a kite!! They had a blast. I got to go to but I chose to stay in the golf cart because it was a little chilly out for me. this post was so randem and everywhere sorry !!

PBR-Arlington

This past weekend we went to the Cowboy Stadium in Arlington for the PBR! We went down Friday night to eat at Joe's Crab Shack. This is the first time I have had seafood since before I got pregnant. I always scared to eat it but the dr said it was ok to have crawfish. We got up the next morning so Miss Addy could swim. We actually stopped by the pool after breakfast and before changing into her swimsuit. Well she got it the hot tub anyway and took Nana in with her. Yes they were both in their pj's still. LOL We went out to the fan zone for a while, then grabbed a bite to eat at Hooter's. They have the best burgers!! Then I had to go back to work. The bull riding kicked off with Toby Keith in concert. He played for an hour and Addy slept through the whole concert! don't ask me how because it was so loud but she did. Once he was finished playing she was awake for the rest of the night. When I say the rest of the night I mean until 1:30 am!! Thank goodness she stayed with my parents in their room! Addy and her sweet baby Collier at Joe's!
