Ultrasound

It seems like this pregnancy has gone by pretty quickly... except for the last month while we were waiting for my ultrasound appointment.  Finding out if Adam was going to have a little brother or a little sister has been a moment of anticipation, to say the least.  I love being able to break up the pregnancy with finding out in the middle what sex the baby is, because no matter when you find out, it is always a surprise!  This time we took Adam along with us. He was riveted to the tv screen and would giggle and point anytime we showed him the baby moving. He almost seemed to understand exactly what was going on. I love watching my baby inside of me, heat pumping, arms and legs moving. It is a miracle. We were hoping this little one wouldn't be shy and we could tell without much trouble.  Just like Adam, this little one was not afraid to make it known..

. He's A BOY!!!

We couldn't be more thrilled that Adam will have a little Brother, buddy, wrestling partner, co-conspirator, and friend.  When we asked Adam if he and his little brother were going to be a handful for mom, he laughed, deviously. :) My love for my second little boy is growing so much daily. He already wiggles and kicks a lot, most often when I am very relaxed and he seems to respond to his older brothers voice.  At this point Nathaniel and I think his name will be Kyle.  Little Kyle, I love you.  Keep growing and getting bigger and know that you are being anxiously waited for.

Pi day

3.14, that is. Yes I married a nerd but if it means that we eat pie on the 14th of march every year I don't mind!  To validate our geekiness we measured pi with our pie on pi day :)

 Adam was a little embarrassed that he likes the pie so much.  While we weren't looking... 

toddler fingerprints. warms my heart

that's love

I sprained my ankle last Monday and consequently I was off my feet for the next couple of days.  Among other reasons, I know my husband loves me because with out being asked, he whipped up dinner for us.  Anyone could expect ramen or mac and cheese, but this is what Nathaniel made for us.

And it was delicious! Now that's love :)

Hair cut

I know that most would advise not to get a hair cut while one is pregnant, but I have given this one a whole lot of thought.  My hair was simply too long and I have been plagued with the lack of motivation to do anything with it. So, when Nathaniel suggested that our date night should be to the salon, who was I to argue?

Yes yes, my hair was long and pretty...  but especially with a super active toddler who likes to climb over and on top of me,  the change was just needed.

 Said toddler, being cheesy at the hair cutting place.

 And the final results... so great that this wasn't even styled, it was just dried :)  I like it... a lot.

 My hubby loves it too!

 The next day Nathaniel decided to make me breakfast in bed... again, who was I to complain? I love my hubby so much and he is so sweet... and creative

He surprised me with a pancake in the shape of my head... what a silly and adorable guy, I think I will keep him :)

Hide and Seek

I've started my spring cleaning...even though it is still winter, and Adam is excited to help.

See how he makes sure it's shut?  That brings me to something else Adam has a tendency to do.  He loves to shut things. doors, drawers, lids, cupboards, you name it.  If it is open he will shut it. He must get it from his Grandpa Gleason ;)
