It's a.... GIRL!!!


Althrough our doctor said it's subject to change, so as of right now we're having another little girl. Her name will be Grace. We are so excited to have her become a part of this family. For her and Mckay to become the best of friends.


My sister and I are 15 months apart and Mckay and Grace will be a couple days short of 14 months apart (given she comes on her due date). Since Mckay won't be out of her crib by the time Grace gets here we had the OPPORTUNITY to purchase yet another crib. Oh the joys. Since we will be putting each child in their own rooms, we needed to clean and de-junk the room that will be Grace's. Oh my goodness, you think that you don't have a ton of stuff untill you start cleaning and figureing out that most of the things that you have you don't need nor use. Therefore I have made a could trips to the D.I., and tons of items thrown away that weren't needed. I HATE de-junking. 


A good things that I did find out was that while going through the process was from a good girl friend and how she saves space when she organizes. She recomended the Space Saver Bags. I can honestly say I'd never even thought of the idea but they are AMAZING! I love them! All 20ish of our blankets and comforters are under our bed, which is probably 6 inches from the floor, crazy I know, but awesome. Also all of Mckay's clothes that she's grown out of, I had in the garage storage bins, one was huge and the other was a normal size bin. All of those clothes are under her crib. Great way to save space for the things that you want to get to easier. I highly recommend them.


Ideas for decorating the nursery.... I'm stuck. I've thought about doing a moose theme or a owl theme, my delema I'm not in love with the owl theme and the moose theme was going to be more for a boy so I would love ideas if any of you have any. 


Ok, Subject of Mckay. She's eight months old and getting so smart and the little miss will be walking here anytime. She's gotten to the point where she can hold onto one hand and be steady enough to walk a couple steps. She says da da, it's so cute. She loves it when her daddy comes home. Loves to walk and be outside. She's started a new thing were she whines about everything and it's driving us up the wall. She doesn't cry unless she's super tired she can't stand it. DOES ANYONE ELSE'S CHILDREN HAVE THIS ISSUE? WHAT DID YOU DO? We are going crazy. All she wants to do is walk, she has a walker and loves that.


ME:  This pregnancy has been a breeze compared to when I was pregnant with Mckay. I have only gotten sick once. I am still taking zolfran at night but other then that I have been good. Since I haven't been as sick I was thinking that we were going to have a boy. But for the time being we are having two beautiful girls! =D


MIKE:  He is almost done with his bachelors degree in Health Administration and then next spring he'll start his masters degree at Western Governors University. He's moving up at work and excelling in every way being the best team lead that he can to his team and co-workers. He's an amazing husband and father I couldn't and wouldn't ask for more.


GRACE:  All is going well, She's growing as she should be getting bigger and stronger everyday. She has a great heartbeat and she's actually measuring a week ahead of where she should be. I can't wait to see if her and Mckay will look a like.




Theres our update for now I'll keep posting pictures and try to tell about each of them but if not then I'm sorry. Thanks for reading hope you enjoyed.
