Cold/snowy/January days.

Well, this week has consisted of playing outside in the snow, romp & stomp and library story time with the little man, and preschool days for my girl. I'm sure a lot of you probably know that I tend to think of myself as a lot more of a beach sort of person, than a cold & snow sort of person But with that being said, I still think it's important to try to enjoy every (or try to;) season of life. I'm sure that I don't always accomplish that, but I try my best to live with a positive outlook and to get out and do things with my littles, no matter where we are or what the weather, for instance, looks like. I want them to look back on their childhood with good memories & be kind, loving people who choose to see the good in life and be thankful for all that we've been given. 

     It was so funny, the other night at dinner when Ava and Mikey randomly, almost as if they had planned it, switched places at the table and then just kept eating each other's plate of food as if nothing had happed. Mike and I just looked at each other, like what? And started laughing. They really are such buddies and are so close and it makes me wonder what our new little one will be like and if they'll stay as close but also include him or her into their little crazy world. Haha time will tell I'm sure, but they're both Very amped on it! And now for some photos to sum up our week. 

That's basically how our week went, and as far as the last photo goes, I am now 16 weeks & 4 days and can actually feel my baby move now!! That's always such a cool thing and makes it feel way more real and not just like your stomach is growing for no apparent reason...haha 

Well, tomorrow is Friday (yay!) so I hope you all have an amazing weekend, in whatever you choose to do.

Back at it!

Well guys, my Hp laptop with windows 8, which is only a couple years old, has decided to just not turn on. Not sure at all what's up since we haven't gotten it fixed yet, but it has definitely stopped me from blogging for a bit & and I'm ready to get back to it! We've just been doing a lot of settling into our new life here in Maryland and especially all the Cold weather that it brings here in the Winter months. Ava has recently started Preschool after being on the waiting list for a few months and she is Loving it! She's making friends and enjoying all of the crafts that she's been doing. Mikey and I keep busy in the mornings too either with play dates, romp & stomp or library story time. (The life of a SAHM basically;) 

     I am now 15 weeks & 3 days pregnant with baby no. 3 and feeling good! I'm so beyond thrilled to be done and over with trimester 1, and we all know this trimester is just the best especially since next month, the day before Valentine's Day, we'll be finding out if my strong feeling of the baby being a Girl is right or if I've been confused all along and giving Mikey his first ever brother. Either way it's totally exciting, but I'm still saying girl all the way. Haha.

   

These few photos pretty much sum up life lately with a Preggo belly shot, heading out with my two, lunch date with my girl, Starbucks play date, organizing the littles playroom and a crazy selfie with my boy before bed. He still makes me laugh often, just like he always has. 

   I hope you all have a lovely rest of your week!
