Belly Shot at 25 weeks and 4 days

I haven't taken very many pictures lately and I have been sick a lot so that is why my posts have been sparse lately. The other night I think I had food poisoning, which I think is pure torture for a pregnant woman. Anyway, here is a belly shot.

I know it's not the best picture ever. Jaxon is pretty active now, not quite as much as Naomi was. Cory has finally got to feel him. (Naomi felt him twice before Cory felt him once.)

It was also that time during pregnancy where I needed some kind of change (those who have been pregnant know what I'm talking about). So I decided to go dark. I really like it!! And I'm glad I didn't chop my hair which is what I did when I was pregnant with Naomi. Naomi was so sweet, she told me it was pretty and that she wanted to go dark too. I of course told her not until she was lots bigger. But it was sweet of her to want to be like her momma.

Naomi's Birthday

My baby (she reminds me that she's not a baby) turned 4 last week. I can't believe it. She's grown up so much.

So this year for her birthday party we had it at her cousin's house with the family. She wanted a Tangled party. So I made Pascal cupcakes, played "Pin the Frying Pan on Flynn Rider's Nose", and had a Maximus pinata (it was really a unicorn pinata but I cut off the horn). She had so much fun!!!

On the day of Naomi's birthday we had fun! She painted her own nails, went and got Dunkin Donuts for breakfast, played with the toys she got for her birthday, watched Strawberry Shortcake (a movie she bought with some of her birthday money, watched Tangled, played soccer with Daddy, and had a donut for dessert with candles on it. We had lots of fun! I can't believe she's already 4.

Caleb's Birthday and Quilter's Visiting

Sadly I forgot to get my camera out and take pictures while my best friend and her family were visiting but we had lots of fun! The Saturday they were here Kelly took her husband out for the afternoon, so I took her adorable girls Faith and Kira with Naomi and me to Caleb Collinwood's birthday party. Her some fun pictures from the party. Karen, my good friend and Caleb's mommy, did an awesome job on his party. The pictures don't do it justice. It was a dragon master training party. They got swords, shot water at dragons, colored pictures, decorated cookies, shot snakes at dragons, and more. The girls had so much.

The cute sleeping girl on the couch is Kira, she slept the entire party.

We had so much fun hanging out with the Quilter's, we love when they come to visit us!!!

20 Weeks and 5 Days

Here's my baby bump picture at 20 weeks and 5 days. I'm half way there.

Here are a couple of the Ultrasound pictures we got. This one definitely shows he is all boy :)

This next one shows our little guy waving to the camera. We're so excited for him to be a part of our family. Naomi is very excited to be a big sister.

Our Anniversary and Valentine's Day Recap

So uploading pictures is way more complicated then before, I'll figure it out eventually. Anyway, Our 5 year anniversary was the 2nd of March. I didn't get any pictures this time, so I thought I'd share a picture of us from 5 years ago. That was one of the best day our lives.

Since our anniversary was in the middle of the week we decided to plan a stay-cation for the weekend. My awesome friend Karen offered to watch Naomi on Wednesday (the actual day), so I surprised Cory with dinner at Texas Roadhouse. He was very surprised. And dinner was delicious (of course I didn't bring the camera). Thanks Karen!

Then on Friday we dropped Naomi off at her cousins' house for a sleepover. And this was the start of our celebrations. First, Cory and I went to Olive Garden. (Side note-they have this new appetizer called Lasagna Fritta, amazing) Then we came home and just hung out, you know talk and cuddle (something we don't get to do very often). On Saturday morning we woke up and hiked the Peralta Trail in Gold Canyon. Then we went to lunch at Steve's Crazy Subs and finally we went and saw Unknown (awesome movie). Then we picked up Naomi. She had so much fun with her Aunt Sondra, cousins, and Uncle Eric that she hardly noticed us when we picked her up. Even though it made me a little sad, I was more happy knowing that she was loved and well cared for.

It was an awesome anniversary. I can't believe it's been 5 years. I love Cory so much, I can't wait to see what the next 5 years bring.

So a recap of our Valentine's Day. First off Naomi and I were pretty sick so it was very low key. Also with our anniversary so close we decided to do most of our celebrating then.

First Naomi woke up and got a present from us. I made her a couple flower headbands (only one is pictured and I know the picture is a little blurry but that was the best one I could get). Then we made Daddy a Valentine's Day card, Naomi made sure we didn't forget the glitter. And for lunch we ate heart-shaped sandwiches. When daddy got home from work we went and got some Little Caesar's Pizza. Then we had an FHE on love. It was a pretty good day considering how we felt.

On Wednesday (after V-day) Naomi's preschool had a Valentine's Day party at the park. Sorry no pictures, but the kids had a lot of fun. They played, passed out their Valentine's and ate cupcakes.

It's a...

BOY!!!

(Pictures to come.)

16 Weeks and 5 Days

I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going. In a little over 2 weeks we will find out what we're having!

Naomi thinks she's going to get a little sister, what do you think?
