Last Belly Picture

Here is my last belly picture one day shy of 40 weeks. I am going to be induced on Thursday so no matter what happens the baby should be born by then. Keep your ears open for the word. :)

Still More Pictures of the New House Waiting for New Baby

Ok so here are a bunch of pictures of our new house. We moved in on Saturday and have been working hard to get settled since we have no idea when the new member of our family will be joining us. As you can see, we are not quite ready since the nursery is the least ready room in the house. Before we moved in we painted most of the inside of the house and recarpeted (when I say we I mean every one except me. ) Keira's room is in transition because we are going to decorate it and get bunkbeds so she can have a "big girl" room. But for right now we are keeping the crib so she doesn't have too many transitions at once. She is doing really well though. The backyard is a nightmare and we have killed everything in the backyard on purpose so we can yank it all out and start over again. So much to do, so little time (and money). Hopefully, our new baby will join us soon. I am ready for her! Look below for more pictures!

New House Waiting For a New Baby

Yummy Cake

So I finally got some pictures of Keira eating her special cupcake that Grandma Marcia (Mama as Keira calls her) made her. It had a K on it which Keira loved and she had so much fun eating it. Who wouldn't?

Happy Birthday, Keira!

Keira officially turns 2 today but we celebrated her birthday on Saturday. She had sooo much fun opening each present and got so much Geico Gecko stuff. She is obsessed with anything Geico especially the Gecko. She couldn't be more excited. She got lots of other fun toys as well including a really nice rocking chair from Great Grandma Inman. She LOVES it. Apparently we didn't get any pictures of Keira's cake or her eating it. I know there is video tape but I have yet to see a picture. We are still gathering them though, since Rick forgot the memory card for our camera. We are so on top of it. So I added the picture of the strawberry shortcake the grown ups had (sugar free, how exciting). We can't believe how big she is getting and can't wait for her to start her role as big sister. I have lots of things to teach her there. ;)

Self Entertainment While the Parents Wait

Today was laundry day which to Keira means she gets to play with the empty laundry baskets. I have been helping Rick with a big project on the computer that we are trying to get done so we can sale it. Keira has been very good (mostly) with entertaining herself while I work on this during the day. Today I turned around to check on her and this is what I found. She had all of her barrettes in the basket with her and was counting them (1,2,3,6,8,9,10, pretty good for a girl who is almost 2). I also love the addition of the hat. She loves to wear hats around the house.

Now for an update on our house and baby that is coming. We are going to be closing on our house either the end of this week or beginning of next week. We feel like it is just hurry up and wait. We hope to be moving in on the 19th of July. The baby has been informed she is NOT allowed to come before that. She is due on the 30th so hopefully that won't be an issue. I cannot wait to be moved and have this baby. I want some cake or cookies or something soooo bad. I am tired of this diet of mine. So lets hope that everything goes well and that July flies by because we are tired of all of this limbo and waiting!

I Think I am Going to Explode!

Here is my belly at 32 1/2 weeks. I can't believe I am still going to be pregnant for 7 more weeks. I feel like the baby is trying to pry her way straight out right now. She is going to have to stay in there though, because we still have way too much to do before she is born.

Some of you may know that we have been looking into buying a house. Well, we placed an offer on one last week and they excepted! We have since gone through the inspection and got that all ironed out so I feel like now it is really happening. Hopefully everything else will go smoothly and we will have a house the first of the month. It is a little house with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a nice sized living room and a little fenced in back yard. There is also a huge public yard right out our front door which will be nice if we need room to roam but we don't have to take care of it! My favorite kind of yard. We will get pictures of it up once we take possession of it and can get pictures without stuff in it or our stuff. The people who live there now have a TON of really cool furniture but it is really hard to tell what stuff is with it all being out there. So wish us luck in the coming month or so. And any locals who want to help us move or do some repairs just let us know. ;)
