Fall 2009

Yes, it has been a while ( 4 months actully) since I have posted anything on this blog! It really does take some dedicated time, which I just can't seem to find these days!

A lot has gone on since my last post...

First, we took the plundge and moved! We moved on Faith's 2nd birthday weekend (September 5th) and then quickly celebrated her birthday with a party at our new home a week later! Thank goodness my mom was here to help! As I was still throwing up daily and hardly eating due to the aweful morning sickness I had this time around! We love the new place and Faith quickly adjusted (after we got her a Big Girl Bed)! I think she had outgrown her crib and wasn't sleeping well in it anymore! She loves her Big bed now!

A few pics of her party...

Oh, and I guess in case you haven't heard....IT'S A BOY!! For sure...many ultrasounds have confirmed! I have slowely moved all of Faith's furniture into the baby's room and she is left with her new bed and a dresser that is on order! Maybe by the summer I will have her bedding and everything put together better! His room is painted blue and he will have white bedding timmed in the blue. Simple! I'm not one for themes, but that's just me.

Next, was Halloween!! Faith was the cutiest BEE ever!! We went to our old neighborhood and trick-r-treated! She had a blast! After a few houses, she had the hang of it!

The Big Orange Pumpkin Farm

We are still envolved in gymnastics class! She LOVES it! She is amazingly strong and her coach it impressed with her ability...we do miss on occassion, because I have to be so involved, and sometimes I just don't have it in me to do!!

Also, swim lessons are still going on! I love sitting on the sidelines and watching her! She is getting better every week! We only have a few weeks left and then I think we are going to take a break for the next session and start back up in the summer!

Faith knows she is going to have a baby brother, but she doesn't really understand what that means! She will kiss my tummy and has even shared her stickers with him and put ton on my belly! I am pretty anxious about how she is going to react, and fully expect some serious meltdowns (from her and me)! However, I am excited to meet him! Life is changing quickly! I have my c-sec scheduled for February 24th! So we should meet him then! And, NO, we do not have a name yet! We will make our decision once we see him and have time to figure out who he is! I think Faith was named late in the afternoon the day she was born...that is totally fine with us! Hopefully we will have it narrowed to only a few names though! Because right now we are not even close! It's funny, because many people thought we had a name picked out for Faith but we wern't telling, but actually we hadn't decided and didn't want to decide until we saw her and had a chance to decide on our own. It was special to us that way!

We are really looking forward to Christmas this year, as Faith is excited to "see" Santa! She knows she has to wait for Santa to open the presents under the tree...this should be interesting!

I hope everyone enjoys this time of the year! We are all blessed!
