Meeting Mallory

It is very cute to see Josh with Mallory, (all his girls actually) he loves them all so much!

Who needs boys, right? Tiny feet and toes!

Trying to get a good pic of Daddy with all his girls....this is the best we could do! (Kaylee and Emma look so big now!)

Emma is so happy and excited about her new sister. It is so cute to see her with her!

Kisses for baby!

Hugs for baby!

Kaylee loves her too. She just laughed and giggled and smiled at her when she saw her.

Of course everyone was else was excited to meet her as well!

New Addition!

A couple people who read the blog do not do Facebook...so they don't know yet that Mallory Rose arrived early Sunday morning! I went in Saturday to be induced. Didn't start that until about 11:00 and she took her sweet time coming and arrived at 2:48 am on Sunday. She weighs 8 lbs. 3 oz and is 20 in long. So far so good. We got back home this afternoon.

Anyone who wants to visit and help hold a baby is more than welcome!!!! (hint-hint!). More cute pics to come later!

Things have been pretty uneventful around here, just living our day to day lives! Waiting for this baby to arrive.....someday! I know it will happen, but at this point I feel like I will be pregnant forever and am more and more uncomfortable every day. Enough complaining.... On to better things...my cute girls! Emma has still been going to the potty. Not all the time, but she knows what it is and what she is suppose to do. We are not pushing this yet because things are going to change around here soon! We will get serious in December when I am off track. Also, Emma will almost 2 and hopefully have an easier time communicating with us about having to go. Isn't she cute just sitting there reading her book, I love it! And she is so funny because going to the bathroom is no big deal to her, when she goes I praise her and tell her good job, and she just looks at me like I'm crazy....shuts the lid and flushes and then leaves the bathroom....like she's telling me "No Big Deal Mom!"Emma also got her first haircut! Her hair grew in very nicely, but in the past 3 weeks I have noticed it getting a bit messy looking on the ends, so we went in. She did awesome and just sat there. The lady only took off about 1 inch, but it looks much better. Trying to get the two girls in a pic together to show off their matching outfits, this was the best we could do...Emma wasn't having it! We were getting ready to head to my brother's house to celebrate his birthday and so the girls headed to the laundry room (which heads out to the garage) and sat in there playing until we left. Emma knows where to go when we leave and Kaylee loves to follow her big sis. While at Scott and Maile's house Kaylee played with this balloon and couldn't get enough. I tried to get video but was too late. She had a blast with it! Emma enjoyed the Connect Four game. She just sat there for the longest time putting the pieces in and then taking them out...and then back in again. Here I am at 39 weeks.....HUGE! I am so ready for our new princess to arrive. I actually went in on Monday because I had been contracting all Sunday night and Monday morning--they were regular and had gotten to be 7-10 min. apart, but went to the hospital and nothing! Got sent home! And ever since then things have quieted down....all on her schedule I suppose! The end for now.....hopefully my next post will be introducing our new little girl, let's all hope!

I am 38 weeks today.....ready for this little one to come out!I am E-X-H-A-U-S-T-E-D!!! I have been doing pretty good, but this week I am just so tired! My parents have been wonderful helping out with dinner and my dishes....and not to mention making my yard look better...thanks mom and dad! I went to the Dr. again and everything is still good. The baby has dropped and is in position! I am only dilated to 1 cm, and she could feel the baby's head. I also did a NST, just because I haven't done one yet and with my history of high blood pressure they just wanted one done. Well she did absolutely fine (I figured there was nothing to worry about she still moves around A LOT). Now I am just ready...I packed my bag for the hospital and I guess now I just have to wait.

So we met up with Shelbi last weekend and had some lunch and did a little shopping. They girls wore matching polka-dotted dresses, they looked so cute! Emma of course was being a little stinker and wouldn't smile at me or the camera! Emma stole the onions off my plate and tried them...she liked them better as a bracelet!

She also shared some onion with Kaylee, who didn't really mind it, she sucked on it for awhile!

French Fry, I love her lips here.

So somber and serious looking...with her two lovies!

I got one smile, not the best pic, but she is smiling!!!

And of course Kaylee is always ready with a smile....cutie bug!
