So Smart!

If I do say so myself, Isabella is a smart girl!
She was sitting with me on Saturday as I worked on the computer.
She loves to type and roll the mouse around.
As I closed a window, our family photo was displayed on the desktop.
Isabella squealed with delight " Heeeyyyy Mamma, Dadda and bmlamlllaa"
She was totally happy to see our family and made me so proud!

I cannot believe she is almost ONE!!
I'm printing off the invites for her party and trying to get the details set!
I can't believe how expensive everything seems these days!
One thing that I have been reminded of time and time again over these weeks is, The
Lord always provides! AMEN!

The baby boy is going wild in my tummy! He now likes to lodge himself under my right ribs and it feels very sore! My belly has really popped and I'm having extra pressure when I walk.
yeah! only 8 weeks of this!!

Just over 8 weeks to go!

I cannot believe how fast time flies by!
Only 8 more weeks till our little guy is here!
He surely makes his presence known!
He is moving so much and so strongly that my
belly moves constantly!
Everyone was able to witness it at Easter this past Sunday!
Maybe I can get video of it??
Isabella is making us laugh everyday!
She is soo funny! She 'talks' on anything shaped like a phone.
she even says "hello" or "hi"
She's eating more and more table food, but inhales cheese and grapes.
I've had a laugh cleaning her up after meals because she rubs it into her hair above her left ear or she has it all on her lap! But NOT the grapes or cheese! Oh no, That makes it directly into her mouth.
We're trying to transition to a sippy cup, but that just provides her with a wet game to play!
She loves to walk, but hasn't done it independently just yet!
I will start to post photos to this blog, but time is limited for sure!

10 weeks to go!

I cannot believe I only have 10 weeks til our baby comes! That isn't a ton of time! I still need to set up his crib, get bedding, buy diapers, get a stroller, get more clothes, plan things for my maternity leave at work, make frozen meals, get more nursing gowns...the list goes on!
Can you tell my nesting has started??

Max still hasn't confirmed A name for our boy! My vote is for Maximus! with a cute middle name too...

I had a Ultra sound today and he is laying sideways. He is about 3 pounds and his heart rate is 144 bpm. He is a healthy little man!

Isabella is cutting more teeth. She is talking more and singing too! She is close to her first steps as well!

We are planning her First birthday party. It's gonna be May 9th at a park in our town. I hope to rent it tonight! I have a cousin working on the invites and oh I have to book the cake lady!

she says hi

Isabella has expanded her vocab!
She now says HI!
it's soo cute!
So it's mama, dadah, HI and reportedly No. I have not
heard No yet, but she is hearing it more!
She loves cords and phones and remotes!
Daddy's xbox remote is her favorite!
