Fall Pictures

I have been trying to get these pictures up for weeks but uploading them has not been an easy task. I finally got these pictures up and have been trying to get more uploaded but for some reason it just isn't working. So I'll try again later in another post.

John's Mom and Dad went with us to Oak Glen to take pictures. These ones turned out great! It's our flying monkey!

There are more pictures and I will try to get them up soon, if it'll work. Anybody else having problems uploading pictures?

The Baby Formally Known As Mylee

We have decided to change the name of our little one, to what is the big question. Well I guess I should say we are probably changing her name , if we can ever agree on one. I have been contemplating it for a couple months and only brought it up to John about a month ago. And still no luck. He was suppose to agree on a name by my birthday and it's now just about over and still no name. So I decided to ask for some feed back to pass on to him. We did agree on a middle name, actually John picked it out, he wanted it for a first name but it is way to popular for me, so I agreed to it as a middle, it's Elizabeth. The names I like are...

Krisalynn Elizabeth (means follower of Christ)
Kalista Elizabeth (means most beautiful) and considering
Felicity Elizabeth (means happiness, one who is successful)

So if anyone would like to voice their opinion and help us decide, or help me talk John into it, post a comment or send an email. I'd love to hear what you think.


Also keep checking the blog for what we decide and also for pictures. I was going to post some tonight but it was taking to long and I didn't feel like waiting.

Dress up

So lately Annabelle has been very into dressing up. She has a princess dress I just don't have a picture of her in it yet. She likes to put on Daddy's socks and Mommy's shirts, and she just loves her sunglasses. She has at least 5 pairs but currently 2 are lost and one is at her Grandmas house so she is down to her 2 least favorite pairs. She is also very into singing and dancing right now. Anything she can find that resembles a microphone she uses it to sing into. She has even used the spout in the bath tub a couple times to sing into. I wish I could have gotten that one on video. Her dancing and singing into the water spout in the tub would have been a great one to show her when she is a teenager. In this picture John had put his hat on and she went to her toy box and found her hat and glasses and put them on just like Daddy.
She also loves her babies, stroller and baby bottles. She is gonna be such a good big sister!
I got her some play jewelry that she just loves, in fact she played with it so much we are now, like her sunglasses, missing like half of it.

Baby Mylee's Ultrasound

Last night John and Annabelle came with me to get an ultrasound. I have now had quite a few of them done and every time I am totally amazed by it! God is so awesome and we are so blessed to have another little girl. So we did pick out a name, it's Mylee Elizabeth. We compromised, Mylee was my second, maybe third choice for a first name and Elizabeth was John's first choice for a first name. So we put the two together and we think it is a beautiful name with a great meaning. So here are some pictures of Mylee, at the end I put some of Annabelle's to compare.Mylee was being quite the little stinker, she kept her hands up at her face most of the time. She also did a lot of yawning and sticking her tongue out at us.
Here is Mylee's tongue, we have like five different pictures of her with her tongue out.

First two are Mylee Second two are Annabelle

Annabelle

We think Mylee looks a lot like Annabelle did in her ultrasound pictures, we can't wait to meet her and see what she looks like.

Annabelle did pretty good, she liked watching the baby on the big TV. I think she understands as much as her little brain is capable of. When we got home we put the DVD in of the ultrasound and she was very excited and sat on my lap and kept saying "baby!" She also took her play camera and lifted my shirt and put her camera on my tummy and said "baby!"

All of us can't wait to meet the newest member of our family.

My Little Artist

Annabelle loves to color! She is always asking to color with her crayons and coloring book, and she decorates our bathtub daily with her bath crayons. So I decided to get her some paints. I got water colors (which is what she is using here) and finger paints. She really enjoyed the water colors, so much she decided to taste them. She was a bit obsessive about her rinse water, I had to change it at least 5 times, as well as getting the paint on her hands. I went through 3 paper towels wiping her hands off before she was finished, although she didn't seem to mind it being on her face or in her ear. We might have to wait a little longer before trying the finger paints.

Baby News!

IT'S A GIRL!!

I had my ultrasound today and the tech said she is pretty sure it's a girl. This little one is very active, I think maybe more than Annabelle was at this time! She put on a show for us today, she was constantly moving, she did some flips, twists, she stuck her tounge out a couple time and was even drinking the amniotic fluid. It was amazing to feel her moving and be able to see her. I am totally blown away, God is so amazing!

And more wonderful news, John took his contractors lisence test today and passed! I am so proud of him and his dedication! As my dad would say "today is a red letter day!"

Busy Little Bee

Once again it's been a while since my last post. She is a very busy little bee! The little free time I get these days usually goes to things other than computer time.

We are all doing pretty good, we are trying to battle off a nasty cold/flu bug that has been going around.

Annabelle has been busy playing, growing and learning new things. She is quite the comedian, she loves to laugh and make others laugh.

John has been super busy with work and trying to study for his contractors license.

And I have been keeping busy watching Annabelle and growing her sibling (which we hopefully will find out what we are having tomorrow). Here are some pictures of Miss Belle waring her Daddy's hat.
I'm telling you, she just thinks she is hilarious! And if you start laughing with her it gets her going even more. It's great! I love that about her, we are always laughing.
Her cousins Logan got a little bike for his birthday and she was so into it I looked around and found a good deal on a little bike just right for her. She loves it!

Since it gets so hot here, I got Annabelle a little mat that fills with water and sprinkles out. At first I thought maybe she didn't like it but after a few minutes she figured out a creative way to stay cool.
She also used it as a drinking fountain

She was playing in her room the other day and was unusually quiet. So of course I go to check on her and I found her in her old swing, very relaxed, swaying back and forth. She did always love her swing.

So keep checking the blog this week, I'll hopefully find out what we are having tomorrow at my ultrasound appointment. I'll try to post it tomorrow or the next day.
