Here Comes Santa Clause

Yesterday was party day for the Keele family!!! We went to our annual family Christmas party with Riley's extended family and then we had a December birthday party at Jennilyns house. We have 4 birthdays between the 17th and the 23rd in the family! So after all the partying we had a special visitor come- SANTA!!! OH MY GOSH! SANTA'S COMMING!!! I know him!- Sorry I' watching Elf so that kinda snuck into my htoughts! Anyhow!!! :D heehee Santa came and all the kiddos got to tell him what they wanted- too bad none of the kids are good! Ok they're good enough! Daaelynn asked for a bowling game, a doll, and a train. Jaxon wants diapers and an ocean wonder crib toy- yes he told Santa specifically :D But best of all was my smarty husband- he asked Santa if he could to check up on Riley's math final he just took for school. See our Santa happens to have connections in the math department as Riley's school lucky enough- he works there in the "off season". I got a good laugh out of that- of course Santa is no cheater and I'm sure Riley did fine himself, but if there was a Santa to ask- he was it!!! Well my friends this is probably my last post till after Christmas so MERRY CHRISRTMAS my blogging pals! I hope your Christmas is wonderful and special- don't forget to remember the real reason for the season though and feel thanks to out Heaven;y Father and Savior! Love you all!!!

Ruba dub dub!

Well Mr Jaxon is 4 weeks old today!! And yesterday he got his first REAL bath- not just the spongy kind. We went all out with the tub, water, the works! He didn't knwo what to think at first, but there was only a little crying at the beginning. You can see form the pics to follow his cute little scowl though so maybe he was suffering in silence. He is such a sweet little guy! I love him so much! And even though he is still little I get it now when people told me there's something about having a little boy- I love it! I am also proud to say I am not 1/2 as phsyco with this little baby than I was the first time around. I am emotionally and physically handeling thing so much better which is awesome for everyone :D

See the enthusiasm!?

That little froggie cover is awesome! It keeps them warm.


Tubbit time!

The finished product! All squeeky clean!

We're alive!!!

Well Mr. Jaxon has been here for 2 weeks and 3 days! All I have to say is- WoW that went by fast! I'm happy to report those 2 weeks and 3 days have actually gone really well! The house is actually maintaining a sense of order, I don't totally want to die from lack of sleep, and Daaelynn hasn't had too hard of a time adjusting. Just to name a few happy things! Jaxon went to his 2 week Dr. appt. for a check up and his circumcision :( and :). He weighs 7lb 1oz and is 20.5 inches now- which made me all sortsa happy. The circumision on the other hand... yah.. I sat in the waiting room and cried!!! Riley stayed out with me too in disgusted awe that I was bawling about the procedure. He was MUCH more chill about it than I was! And I will admit NOW that it wasn't too bad, but I was SO ready to back out and forget the whole thing at the time. Daae was just concerned that he was going to get shots. I reassured her that he wasn't getting shots, but i sure didn't tell her it was a bit worse than shots actually! Speaking of Daae- she is turning into such a good sister! So funny though- the day we came home she sat with Riley when he changed Jax's diaper, and of course he cried. Daae didn't know what to do- she looked ready to cry too so we had to explain he was fine just unhappy about his cold butt. She's not thrilled about me still sleeping upstairs in the livingroom, but that won't last forever.

Well that's all I have for now! Here are some more pictures to leave you with!! Our trip to the festival of lights and Daae loving on her new baby! I have more/ newer pics, but they're still on my camera :( I'll put more up when I can!

Jaxon Robert Keele

Here is our new little man! Jaxon Robert Keele born November 19 2009, 1:08pm. Weighed 6lb 10oz 19.5 inches long! It was kinda nerve racking, but we made it and we're both doing really well. We got to the hospital at 5:30; I was set up to be the 1st one in, but somone came in laboring and had to have a C-section before meeeee so we were bumped to 12:30. I wasn't too whiney though because when I had Daae I probably bumped somone too! :D From there everything went pretty well. My knees were shaking when I was waiting for the epidural in the OR, but it went as good as anyone would want. Riley got to be there with me this time and was the 1st one to hold his little boy. The nurses claim his hair is red- what there is of it - only time will tell! All around he is SO CUTE! I'm so in love :D

These are soooooo funny! Read them and enjoy!!!

One Week!!!

One week to go my friends! 7 little days! 168 hours!!! 10,080 MINS!!! Ok that's far enough I guess LoL Anyhow I had my second to last Dr Apt today. I had it with another Dr in my Dr's practice though because my normal Dr. is off in Cambodia/ Vietnam area doing humanitarian work for the church. I think I have told everyone I know this- is it weird to be proud of your Dr??? lol So I also got a little surprise with this other Dr though- in case my Dr is not back and I go into labor he gets to deliver Mr. Jaxon (C-section), so he asked me if I knew where the placenta is.....eerrrrr in there somewhere right?? :D I knew it wasn't placenta previa going on, but heck if I knew. I told him last I heard at the ultrasound 20 weeks ago it was in a good spot. So he says "Well let's go back to the ultrasound machine" this was me o.O YEAH! :D!!!! I didn't think I'd get to see my lil man again till her was here in the flesh, but I did! Didn't get any pics, but it was awesome to see him again all big and crammed in there. I just wish I would have had Riley come with me since he didn't get to go the 1st time :p He's not to heartbroken though- when he can meet him face to face is when he gets into it. Daae gets all baby crazy with me though so it's all good :D Well I don't know if I'll update again before he gets here, but I'll be sure to show him off on here ASAP when he arrives! Thanks for all the love and support everyone!!!! Love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Halloween!

OK so it's been 4 day since Halloween, but I had to show off the pics of my little Sleeping Beauty. We went up to PG to my sis in laws house for some Halloween dinner then down to Provo to my other sis in laws old neighborhood to trick or treat. I think i can say that it is surely Daae's favorite holiday! She was a woman on a mission hitting those houses up for candy! At least she was a polite trick-or-treater despite her divide and conquer ways. so here are some pics!!!

Pre-festivities pics! Before she destroyed her makeup :D

Grandma and Grandpa with all the grand kiddos.

Yah I cropped this one folks!!! the tummy was not feeling photogenic!

Chad taking his turn trick or treating with the lion. I have a quote for after this pic too " And now that I am blind..." :D thanks for being a sport Chad!!

Little miss strike a pose still having a blast!

Two more crazy ( and comedic) cousins!!

What a princess looks like after a hard day of trick-or-treating!

And that was our Halloween!!!!

22 days and Counting!!!

We have an official birthday for the little boy...as long as he waits for it lol! As some of you know I am going in for a repeat C-section. I reeeaaalllyyy considered a VBAC (vaginal birth after c-section), but when it came down to it I really HATE not knowing what is going to happen. Sooooo scared of the unknown. Then you add risks like a ruptured uterus to the deal and I just wasn't up for it. I know what will happen with a C-section so that's what we're going with. But anyhow! Like how I got all defensive there?? LoL Some people I've talked to think it's a cop out so trah lala :D But we went to the Dr and he set us up on the 18th bbuuuttttt after coming home and talking to Riley AND looking at the calender we found a problem or 2! One he would share a birthday in the family- not too big of a deal, but you know! You want your kid to have his own day if he can! And the amount of vacation days compared to the days Riley would take off to be home with us didn't look to fabulous :/ So I did something that no woman has before...I called and asked my Dr if he could push our due date BACK...how crazy is that!?!? So he was able to push it back one day and here we are! Baby due on November 19th 2009!!! Yeah!!! Wish us luck!!

Is it a Puppet???

OK- so we were headed down to Vegas on Thursday when we discovered I have passed on something horrible to my daughter..... car sickness :( Sorry Daae!!! So after monkeying around with her car seat and cleaning up puke (fun fun!) we had to keep her entertained with something that did not require her to look down. Sooooooo we decided to play the animal game where we take turns describing animals and then the other person has to guess what it is! And OF COURSE Daaelynn made us laugh sooo hard with this one. It was my turn to describe and her turn to guess. Here is how it went- Me: This animal is very very big. Bigger than a car! It can be blue or grey and it lives in the Ocean....... (because I wasn't sure she would get it I threw in this clue) There is one in the movie Pinocchio. Daae: Is it a cricket? Me: nooooo Daae: Is it a puppet?? Me: LOL nooooooooo She never did guess a whale, but after the puppet guess she got auto points for being so stinking funny!!!! I love my funny little girl!!

Meet My Twin

Or my future son- one or the other. Either way this is freaky to me! If you go on the classifieds on KSL they have these ads on the sides- right? Right! Well one of these ads is a picture of a young man and I swear the 1st time I saw it, it creeped me out! I just showed it to Riley the other day and he was amazed as well! Ok so here we go this is mmeeeeee-

Awe I'm so pretty!!!! :p I just took this because I had very little pics of me- because I'm always behind the camera! And because all my other pics are of me smiling and it takes away some of the effect. OK And here is my twin/son......
IS THAT WEIRD OR WHAT! A teenage pic of me might have been more effective also, but still seriously! For those who have known me longer- you might be able to see the resemblance better. But crazy or what my friends?! I look like a boy!!! ;) Well there you have it- my personal doppelganger!

Rain Rain...

Well I haven't given ya'll an update in a while so I thought I'd hop on this rainy day tell you how it's going! Not a whole lot to tell really which is why I haven't been on lol. The biggest thing is I only have about a month and a half till Mr Jaxon makes his appearance! Yeah!!!! I'm starting to get into the really uncomfortable days where he is always in my ribcage and lying down is the only cure, or where peeing is almost painful in the morning because you have to go SO BAD!!! But I have tried to squelch my antsyness for his arrival because after he is here I have to bid farewell to my blessed friend sleep for quite a while :D And anyone who knows me knows that me and sleep are tight!!! So I am just trying to enjoy the month and a half we have left till 3 becomes four.
Which isn't too hard really since this wonderful fall weather is moving in on us!! Not today quite with the rain and all, but otherwise I am in love with Utah's fall time! There is just something about it that makes my heart light and gets me all raring for pumpkins and turkey!!!
Well my friends I know it wasn't much and hopefully I'll have something more exciting for you next time, but at least now you know I am alive!!! Bye my peoples!!

MORE NEW MOON!!...heehee It Works NoW!!!

Well I was hopping around some of my favorite sites and guess what I found?!?!? ANOTHER New Moon trailer! TEEHEE!!!!! Man I hope I can see this in Nov!!! We will see when the little man and my Dr. decide he is comming I guess :D Anyways- ENJOY!!!!

Nesting

It sounds so domestic and homey...nesting. Preparing your little space to be a cozy and a lovely place to bring your little birdie home to. But nesting is seriously driving me crazy!!!! You see I still have a little 4 year old birdie at home that does not make all this clean it and keep it clean instinct in me allll that possible. Every day bring the same mess back into my life and the cycle continues. Now yes some of this is soooo my fault. Like letting her snack all about the house. Let's just say it is a good thing my couches didn't cost me anything. It is so frightful! And then when I have thoughts about finding different couches that I'd actually pay for I remember that I am having another baby that will turn into a messy 4 year old so it would be pointless at the moment. So I'll keep sticking my couch covers in the washing machine and hope they can bear with me. But there is something more bothersome than the couches believe it or not. The carpet..... the carpet THE CARPET!! AHHHHHH!!!! Every time I look at it (which is a lot) I want to yell and throw things at it! That's an image huh? :D And I blame all of this on that lovely little word...nesting! It will pass and I will battle my carpet before the little guy gets here in November. So in the mean time I will suck it up and try to keep up with this nesting thing...maybe I'll just have to invest in a good blindfold to keep my eyes off the carpet in the mean time :D

New Moon Trailer!!!

SOOO! I was on my deviant art site and someone mentioned there is a 2nd New Moon trailer out so I thought I'd see how legit it actually was and oh my. I totally am team Edward though because for the 2 seconds he pops up on the screen my heart about lept form my chest LOL! Check it out......

And here is also another one I found on Utube. It is fanmade, but seriously I don't know how she got ahold of some of the footage at the end- HOLY COWNESS!!!

The County Fair- YeeHaw!

We went over to the county fair in Spanish today and had a little fun. Daae had quite a bit of fun lol We checked out their contest winners ( biggest peach and so on lol), saw some really big pigs and cows, and paid an insane amount of money to ride some very questionable carnival rides :D I do have some bias for the Clark County fair in Nevada, but all in all it was a fun little fair!!! Here's some pics to prove how much fun the kiddo had! Yeah for being pregnant and unable to go on this! But brave little child went on it without one problem!

Funny thing about the car ride is she chose the wheel that was missing the bolt that held the little steering wheele on. She kept looming at the operator like she was going to get into trouble lol Oh freakich carnival rides!!!!

Awe...her first hickey!

So you know the game hi-ho cherries? And those cute little cups they give you to put your cherries in? Well Daae was playing around with her game one day when she decided to suction one of those little cups over her little mouth- like when you put a cup over your mouth and suck in to get it to stay. Well she must have had some sort of vacuum seal on this thing because she ended up giving herself a hickey! It looked like she had a grape punch stain under her bottom lip! It stuck around for 2 days and gave us a laugh! She is never a dull girl!!!

The camera washed it out a little, but there it is!!

It is a...

BOY! Holy cow I was wrong! I was so sure it was a girl lol We're so excited! And Daaelynn has consented to love him even though he is a boy I was seriously worried for a minute!!! So scary excitement!!! I've been told there is something about having a little boy; that they love their mommies so much, but I confess I am still scared! I know what to do with a girl cuz I am one and I have a 4 year old one, but what do I do with a boy?! Whatever it is I hope I do it well!!! Already we messed up and bought the poor guy pink binkies! LoL! Back to babies'r'us they will be going!
Despite the scary we are sooooooooo excited for a little Jaxon! Even though he evaded the ultrasound tech like a sneaky pro! He said this was probably the most stubborn baby he's looked at in months! Let us hope this doesn't reflect on the personality he'll develop :D Not that he won't fit right into this family if he is!!! We will see, but in the meantime we're going to have fun preparing for a lil boy. Grandma, Maemaw, and G-dad have already had some purchasing fun for the lil kiddo and I'm attempting to make him a rag quilt. We'll have fun with our little boy ;) So now that that suspense is over I just need to make it through the next 18 weeks! Wish us luck!

Here's some pics! 1-his arms in front of his lil face 2- lil feet 3-him upside down 4- lil face (bottom left :D) & 5- What makes a man a man! :D

Why Does My Dr Hate Me???

OK maybe hate is too strong of a word :D Fine dislike is too strong too!! I'm sure he thinks I'm just lovely! But WHY can't I have an ultrasound NOOWWW!!! Yep that's what I am whining about this time lol See last month when I went to the Dr I figured I'd get to set up my ultrasound date- "Oh just set it up after your next appt." my Dr says.....gr...OK fine because I figured I could get the ultrasound done the same week as my appt because I'd be 21 weeks along AND my appt was on a Monday so we had aalllll week to take a peek and see what this baby is. So I go and Yeah all is well in baby land and he says to set up an ultrasound. Wellll the ultrasound guy comes on Tuesdays! WOOHOO right??? Because the next day was Tuesday! Well....no woohoo...:( they set me up for the next Tuesday! WAAHHHH!!! SO this comming Tues we get to find out what we're having. We will be 22 weeks so I am ready to know!!!
So enough whining! But betting we will do! I'm gonna post a poll and ya'll have to guess what you think and we'll see who is right! Yeah! OK well me and my hormonal self is going to go whine to someone else now :D

The Many Adventures of Temple Shutdown

For those who don't know I work at the Provo Temple in housekeeping. And also for those who didn't know these last two weeks have been the Provo Temple's shut down. We have 2 a year each for 2 weeks each time so we can super clean the temple and they can get any construction they want to do done. So it can be a busy crazy 2 weeks for everyone who works there!!! And not only do we get to go more ofter ( in the day- we usually work 9pm-1am) but we get to have some of the missionaries in the MTC help as their P-day/ volunteer time.

Soooo I've been going in the day here and their to help out with the missionaries and it has been pretty fun! Nothing too crazy....until yesterday.....when it all went wrong......ok it wasn't that bad but it was an adventure!! I got stuck...in an elevator....with a cleaning cart.... and eight large, tall Elders......DAH! We were just making our way down to the 1st floor from the 3rd floor when .... elevator STOPS! And I am not usually claustrophobic, but cram all that in a lil elevator and yah claustrophobia creeps up on you! We were in their so tight that any one person sitting down was out of the question. And to make it all that much fun there was no one at the emergency phone to answer our call!!! So I'm freaking out and pushing the call and alarm button hoping someone will answer or hear us and get us out! So then one of those wise lil missionaries says... "Do we want to have a prayer?" YEAH ELDER! Smart boy so we fold our arms.....and a lil voice comes over the emergency speaker! Talk about a quick answer to prayer!!! It was awesome! So someone knew we were stuck and we said our prayer and we got out!!! Yeah! The engineer did laugh at us when he yelled into us asking how many of us were in there and we said 9...thanks buddy! But we lived and had quite a lil adventure in the process- there's something to write home about!!!

Is it too weird???

OK I was looking for a baby ticker, or countdown-whatever to post on my blog to track how far along I am and so on. I think the ones that show what the baby looks like right now are kinda cool. Some of them make me laugh though! Like one I considered looks like a little baby in a snow glob bouncing around....and no you can't shake it up with your cursor....I tried :D I also found one on What To Expect's website that I liked, but it doesn't fit on the screen- :p So the one I have now does a quick 360 degree turn of the baby and then just stays on the normal lil pic. But I want to know- is it just too weird???? I know other people have the cute little bars with the stork carrying the baby to the end of the little bar, but I kinda like seeing what the baby looks like! Gives yah a visual! I asked Riley if it was too weird and he said yes, but he is also a man so hehe! So go look at the lil baby tracker (under my friend's list on the right) and let me know- too weird or too cute????

A lil Daddy Tribute!

I just wanted to give a little tribute to some of the Daddy's in my life! I love them all so much and don't know what I'd ever do without them!!! I know we women are invincible and awesome, but even we know that there is something special about daddy's that no one else can duplicate! So here is a little note to all those Daddy's that make my life special!

First there is MY Daddy! I don't know what anyone in our family would EVER do without this man! He is the best, funniest, most understanding dad on God's green earth!!! He's the person I owe thanks for my hazel eyes and kinda off sense of humor! :D Gotta love that! So to my daddy I say I love you and thank you for all you give to us! The force is indeed strong with you!!!

Next is the man who is the love of my life adn I'm proud to say my children's daddy. My sweet Riley Keith Keele. We both had a big suprise finding out we were going to be parents, but he sure has shined in that area ever since the whirlwind we call Daaelynn came into or lives. He makes her laugh and never lets her forget how much he loves his Suess! I'm so blessed to have him next to me as we bring more lil ones into our family! Ahd he is one HoT Daddy too! That never hurts ;)

The lat Daddy I want to give my love to I don't have a pic on my computer of, but he is my Papa- my dad's dad who passed away when I was about 15. I miss him so much! He was my Papa! After my Gram passed away we went over and spent time with him every Monday and watched JAG and ate Villa Pizza. I know him and my Gram are with eachother again and I am so glad to report that they have also had their baptismal work dome and soon will have their other work done by our family in the temple! I'll be so happy to see him again one day!

And those are the Daddys in my life that I give this little tribute to! I love you all!!!

Oh New Moon WHY!?!?!

I can't believe I didn't post about this before but- the New Moon trailer is online! WooHOO!!! If you'd like to watch it it is to your right on my little video bar 3rd one down! Very awesome and it makes me want to see it so bad!!! BUUTTTTT- this is where the title of my blog comes in...... ..... New Moon is in theaters November 20th this year...... and guess when I am due my friends??? NOVEMBER 20TH!!!! OH THE AGONY!!!!! :p my due date has been shuffled around some, but only by 2 days so either way I am probably going to have to wait to go see it! Waahhhhhhh! Oh well! A new baby is better than a movie anyhow! Maybe I can make it Riley and I's first date away from the new baby.....but then I'll be htinking a lot about how the baby is doing and not so much about the movie! :D I'll figure it out! In the mean time I'll enjoy the trailers and keep swooning over Edward Cullen raarrrrrrrrr ;)

The so far only official poster I know of.

Let the Merriment of Commencement commence!!!

Well my lil sis is a graduate! Woohoo! Yesterday was our last day in Las Vegas and Anisa Marie's graduation day. We only have to wait about a month to see our family again though so we're not going to be too sad :D they're coming up for Daae's birthday/ 4th of July. I will tell you though there were lottsa tears at the airport-saddest thing ever people! We got there and our family walked us to the security checkpoint and as I was showing the lady our passes and ID it dawned on Daae that Maemaw, B and G-dad were not coming...... then she leaned her head on my hip and started crying! :(...and then I started crying!!!!! OH SO SAADDD!!!! After that she watched the bags and shoes come out of the x-ray machine and she was happy again, but it is always tough to leave the Vegas family behind :(

We did have a lot of fun while we were there! We went shopping with B for a new outfit for graduation, went to lunch with Maemaw, jumped everyday on the trampoline, and played endlessly with Maemaw's new kitten Spock. I did have one not so happy incident though...I might have broken my baby toe on my right foot :s eek! I was getting up Wed morning to get ready for graduation, but there was not a whole lot of room between the wall and air mattress sooo I lost my balance, fell backwards onto the corner of the air mattress ( no support btw) then I kinda army rolled off the corner onto the floor, but my foot made contact with the floor in a rough way and I heard my pinkie toe go POP! But I know you are not suppose to pop your pinkie toe and it kinda hurt! So now a day later it is swollen and purple and blue.......hmmmm. It doesn't hurt insanely unless I put lottsa pressure on it so I don't know what to think. BUT I see my Dr tomorrow so I thought I'd see what the professional says!

All in all it was a fun and very eventful vacation! Now back to life :D

Vivaaaaa Las Vegas!!!!!

WoW! I be a bad little blogger of late! :D It has been very very busy in my complicated life of late, but I don't have to think about it right now because I am in Las Vegas!!! YEAH!!!!! Daaelynn and I flew out yesterday morning (after 3 1/2 hrs sleep for me uh huhuhu :( ) And after a 45 min flight that Daaelynn did WONDERFUL on, a mad dash to the potty after getting off the plane carrying 2 purses, 2 duffle bags, and a car seat, and a crazy trip on the freakish tram from one terminal to the main airport- we FINALLY made it to our Maemaw, G-dad, and Anut B!!!!!! I'm down here for Anisa's graduation- she is graduating from high school much to her joy! And now she gets to face the real world! Ohhhhh my sweet naive lil sister! :D It'll be fun! But anyways! She doesn't graduate till Wednesday, but we decided to come down early and spend some time with the family having some fun! If I actually remember to take pics while we are here I'll post them!! in the mean time let the fun begin!!! :D

My Family

I talk to my mom, dad, and lil sister every Sunday night. And I miss them SOOOO much!! So I decided I'd do a little bragging on here about my family in Vegas. They are some of the best and most wonderful people I have met! Now they don't read my blog so I say all this and really mean it LoL First there is my dad- Seriously he is the best dad I could EVER ask for!!! I am so thankful everyday for the wonderful father God gave me! He has the best sence of humor also! Off color at times, but hilarious my friends! He is also the most hardworking man I know. He'd do anything for his family and adores his grandaughters. I miss having him close :(

Next is my mom and one of my very best friends! She has a very kind and loving heart. She has been a wonderful mother and friend to me my entire life! I can always call her up and know that I have someone who understands whatever craziness is going on and has some great advice to get me going back on track. She also is such a loving Maemaw! Daaelynn loves talking about her G-dad, Maemaw and Aunt B!
Then this is my lil sis. Ohhhhh my lil sis! I do love her so much. I am 7 years older than her which sometimes put us in a funny situation. Whenever I try to play "mom" shegoes about reminding me that I am her sister NOT her mom. BUT seriously!!! I had to play games the girl to get her to get dressed, and con her into taking her medacine when she was sick- I AM her 2nd mom!! But nooowwww we are more on a peer level so it is weirdness! But I love her so much and she is one of my best friends also! She is very different from me which is both good and eh, but no matter what I know she'll be there for me always just like I will be for her!

And I wouldn't feel right if I didn't put my brother in here. We don't talk as often and are both in our own little family worlds, but I do love him and enjoy talking to him and seeing his family grow. He actually was the 1st one in our family to graduate college earlier this month so you gotta love that!!

AND here is the two best pieces of my family! My Daae Daae and Riley!!!! The two love of my life and in November it'll be three! They are also 2 of the best things that could have happened to me. Riley is my best friend and one of the only people I know I can be just myself with and it's enough.. I'll tell you that is when you know it's love!! He is an awesome father and an awesome husband! He does so much for us, and I am so proud of all he has done and has yet to do. then thre is my lil girl. She has grown and changed so much in her almost 4 years it amazes me!!! And i love her more every day! She has the sweetest heart, and the funniest personality! She makes life interesitng and so worth facing each crazy day for.

So there is my family that I wanted to share with you. Thanks for indulging me!!!!

The Rhythm of my Heart is Beating Like a Drum

OK so not really my heart, but a heart! I get to officially announce to those who don't know that we are having another baby! Yeah!!! I was waiting to post anything because I have been a little more worried about this one than I was with Daae. Dunno why beause I didn't really have much cause, but I'm a proffesional worrier so hey why not! But we finally got to go to the Dr. and today we went in for an early ultrasound and got to get a lil pic of the baby and hear the 170 beat a min heartbeat!! It was so fun! Riley had to work, but Daae and I got to show off the lil pic we got when we got home. The next time we go in for an ultrasound though we'll make sure he gets to be there because that's when we find out what we're having! But for now here is a lil pic of the lil guy or gal. They're facing away from the carmera so if it were more detailed it would be a bum shot! OH and whoever gueses what song and artist my title is gets and extra HURRAH HURRAH from meee!!! ;)

Work 'n' Shoes

Well last night was the last night of work for Stephanie and Travis :( Sadness!!! They are so fun to work with! But we had a party to send them off into life and it was tons of fun! We also all pitched in to get them each a present. Now I wouldn't have thought of it, but another friend Katie, thought I should paint lil shoes for Stephanie's new little one! FUN! So I did:D They turned out so cute ( thank goodness!) And there was some talk of others wanting to see my other shoes so I decided I'd make it easy and post a link to my little corner of an online art community I belong to, here on my blog!!! So here it is- http://megtoes.deviantart.com/ .

There you can see all my shoesies and other art stuff if you're wanting to. I'm flattered that people seem to enjoy the shoes so much!!! Seriously! Thanks for the awesome support my friends!!!!

I am alive!!!

I've been such a blog slacker, but I want to reassure everyone that I am still alive! It's just been kinda busy crazy around here so I haven't has a moment to get on and post something new! What have we been up to you might wonder? Well we've been enjoying this wonderful weather for one! We've been fishing 3 times since it has warmed up and Daae even got her own fishing pole for Easter! She loves it and has so much fun just casting and reeling back in! Easter itself was awesome too! All the kids got mounds of candy and stuff from everyone and we had a wonderful meal at Grandma's house with the whole family. Daaelynn also went bowling for the first tiem ever and had quite an enjoyable time of it. She was sad to leave, but then again she is always sad whenever we leave anywhere! So here are some pics of all the fun we've been having! I'll try to be a better little blogger! Cross my heart! ;D

My cute little easter bunny with ears and a tail to boot!

Here we are fish-a-catching as Daaelynn would say! Riley caught all the fish in that pond that day!

Bowling!!!! I think Daae and I got almost the same score the first game! :D She's goooddd!

Adorable lil bowling shoes! Awe!!
