More Pictures

So here are some more pictures of Megan and Jocelyn from Halloween. She's starting to look around more and she always smiles at Jocelyn. I love that. Not much writing, just pictures. Enjoy.








Now I'll add some Megan pictures from the hospital. What a cutie!

She's Here!!

Sorry for all of you who have been waiting for pictures. This is the first day that I've been on my computer and feel up to doing much of anything. I'm not going to write a bunch because it's late and I'm tired. I'm also stealing pictures from my sister's website so I don't have to upload them from my camera. Megan is absolutely beautiful. At her one week check-up she gained 6 ozs. She was discharged at 7 lbs. even, and now weighs a healthy 7 lbs 6 ozs. She eats quite well! Enjoy and I'll send more later.

Apple Picking

So in the beginning of October we went apple picking. It's a tradition that we do every year. I enjoy getting the apples and taking pictures of Jocelyn. And of course it doesn't hurt that the cider and apple donuts are amazing fresh! So this year we went to Indian Ladder Farms, which is where we went last year. I had to wait 10 minutes to get more donuts because people buy them so fast. I do have to say that they were amazing. I was in heaven and ate 2 right away. (It was near lunch time and I was hungry). So I have a couple of pictures with Jocelyn and me, Dan and Jocelyn, and I think one with her picking an apple off of the tree. We had a really nice time. It was supposed to rain, but it only sprinkled for maybe 5 minutes and then it was beautiful. Enjoy the pictures!!




So the next day Jocelyn and I made pumpkin chocolate chip cookies (thanks Cay) and I wanted to share the experience with you. As you probably know it takes longer to do things with a little one but it's great for them to learn and have fun together. But this is what I had to clean up afterward.

37 Weeks and Counting

OK, These are short snippets of our life. Sorry but I'm due in a week and wanted to get them up here. Here are a couple of pictures of me that I took when I was 37 weeks pregnant. Nice and Big!
I'm so ready for our little girl to come along. The doctor said at my 39 week appointment that she's measuring small, but so did Jocelyn. Thankfully I have little babies. I just hope that I can have a VBAC this time and it goes well. If not, C-section again. My main concern is that we all come out of this well. Though I would like to see her sooner than the 3 hours it took for me to wake up and see Jocelyn. The Doctors did blood work on me a couple of weeks ago and my platelates are in the normal range, so hopefully no HELLP syndrome this time. I could actually have an epidural. Hurray for modern medicine! I have one more blog to do after this and the next blog I do will probably be of our newest addition to our family!!

Our Newest Addition

Hello all,
I've been a slacker, sorry. I wanted to share with you all our newest addition that we are so happy about. It's our new fence!! We got this installed in September so that our yard is safer for Jocelyn to play in. We have a corner lot and sometimes people like to go around the corner pretty fast. So, here is our fence.

New Creation

So I've been wanting to reupholster my kitchen chairs for months now. I have had the fabric, even had it cut to the right size, but just needed a little bit of help to keep the material taut. Yesterday I went up to my sister's house and we did them all. I put them back on the chairs and they look fantastic. I just need to put stain guard on them. I was a dope and forgot to take before pictures, but those of you who have seen them will see a big difference. For those of you who have not, they were a very light grey that looked horrible to me. So, without further ado, here are my new chairs!!

Bragging Rights

So I've been meaning to brag about Jocelyn. A few weeks ago it was pretty warm and Jocelyn was playing in the sprinkler. Our neighbor invited us to swim in his pool, so we got changed and went over. At first Jocelyn sat in her blow up swim aid thing. Then she wanted me to hold her. Our neighbor asked if she wanted arm floaties. I said we'll try. Well, after a couple of minutes my little brave girl didn't want me to hold her. She was swimming on her own- kicking and using her arms and keeping her head above water. I was so amazed. She actually did this for about 10 minutes or so. She is such an independent little girl. I only wish I had my camera there to take pictures. Hopefully next time.
