The Belly

This was taken a week ago...I officially have five weeks to go! Amazing how fast this pregnancy is going! I am very excited and very nervous. I feel like I just got a handle on getting two out the door! Baby girl is quite the mover. I think she knows she has some big sisters to play with and is getting ready to meet them!

Baby Shower!

This year I joined MOPS and have had the opportunity to get to know some really great women. My neighbor Kim happends to be at my table. We are both expecing our third girl this March (our girls have all become great friends and love to play together...I imagine the thrid babies will be also!) The wonderful girls at our table hosted a baby shower for Kim and I last week. The shower was complete with a great dinner, fun games and generous gifts to honor our third babies! I received diapers (always a need!) , cute clothes (can a girl have too many!!), gift cards and some items to go with "New Baby's" nursery. So nice to have the third baby so kindly thought of!
The "Multi-tasking" game...holding a baby, talking on the phone and pinning laundry to a chothes line.

Busy girls!




January is shaping up to be a busy month! The girls are so much fun! Nora is really at the age where we are seeing quite a lot of changes and quite the little personality! Clara started back to school after two very sad weeks off. She really missed seeing her friends and her teacher. She is learning so much! She writes all of our names and is very interested in how to spell things. She surprises us all of the time with how much she knows! Nora is now a full time walker! She wants to do EVERYTHING her big sister does, including brushing her teeth. This has become quite the favorite past time at our house. Our time also is busy with playing dress-up. As you can see, even Nora gets her own dress, crown and magic wand. Nora did have her 15 month appt. She weighed in at a whole big 16 lbs, 15 oz and 30 inches. Tiny body with a big attitude! Gotta love it!
*Sorry about the lack of Clara pictues! My blog is not liking some pics today...also, Clara is very hard to get a good picture of these days! She likes me to take pictures of her while she is dancing!

Nora's First Haircut

Nora is now a big girl...she had her first haircut! Clara went first to show her it was no big deal. Nora was great about it...granted she had her first sucker at the same time, so she was a-okay! Nana came down to help out, just in case Nora would not sit in the seat, but as you can see, she was quite content!









Wild Things!

Love these outfits...thanks Gram, and Gymboree thanks you too!!

New Year's Eve!

Brian and I enjoyed an evening out with all adults for New Year's Eve! We had dinner with 10 other neighbors at La Sadina...SO GOOD! Then we went to The St. Onges for fun games! I won some money, always a good thing! We picked the girls up from Ms. Cheri's at 12:30...yep, we made it midnight! Happy 2009!!
