Giveaway!

Cara over at Me? A Mom? is giving away some fabulous fabric! I would love to use it for a quilt I'm about to start.

Hello?

So it has been way too long since I have updated my blog. I blame it on Facebook! A lot has happened in the past year. My son is now 4 and finished up his first year of full time school. It was an amazing year for him, and I look forward to all the school adventures to come! Oh yeah...and I had a baby! Elsa Mae joined our family on July 5, 2009 and she is just a love. She's a lot more fiesty than her big brother, and she gets into way more things than Elliott ever did. I promise to put together a post with some pictures of her first year, but for now...here's the pictures from her party. Leave a comment and let me know if I still have any readers!

Happy Birthday!

Elliott's birthday was a success!  He had so much fun with all of his family and friends.  He had insisted on a monster theme, so this is my first attempt at actually decorating a cake.  He loved it so that is all that mattered!  We got exciting news that he got into our dream school for him next year, so we are really excited.  I think it is going to be an amazing opportunity for him.  It's full-time which is going to be a little hard for me to adjust to, but he loves school so much I think it will be perfect for him.  Plus it will give me lots of one-on-one time with the new baby who should be arriving in about 12 weeks!  Yikes!  Lots to do!

Six words I would love to go 24 hours without hearing...

But I really, REALLY want it!

Happy St. Pat's Day!

I hope everyone had a chance to get outside yesterday and enjoy the beautiful weather.  We had a great time at the parade!  Elliott thought it was the coolest thing ever to have candy hurled at his head.  He had never seen so many lollipops in one place.  I am hanging in there with this pregnancy.  Still tired all the time.  I can't believe I only have 14 weeks left.  Last night I got sucked into a show on Discovery Health about women who didn't know they were pregnant until the went to the hospital and found out they were in labor.  I mean really...how is this possible?

It's a...

So I am still having trouble loading pictures on my computer, but I thought I would post an update in case I still have a reader or two out there.  I am now 21 weeks pregnant.  And we found out we are having a little girl!  We are so thrilled.  Mike and I both agreed a long time ago that we would only have 2 kids.  While the thought of brothers is exciting, I am really happy that we are having a little girl.  Elliott is my little man, and while I know I would love another little boy just as much, it is nice having him as my guy.  The experience of a girl is going to be so different I'm sure.  I just went on my first shopping trip for little miss, and I think that I am going to have a problem...or at least my bank account is!  Elliott is still doing great.  I am in the process of planning his 3rd birthday party.  He still loves school and we have been in the process of figuring out where he will go next year.  I will update again soon with pictures.
