my fairy tale come true

love you baby boy

At 23 1/2 weeks pregnant with baby #2 we are beginning to prepare (or at least thinking about beginning to prepare) everything that needs to be done.
 
We purchased our first baby boy clothes, have begun to look at paint colours, and have a very initial baby name list started.  There has also been lots of talk in our house with Kennedy about the baby in mommy's tummy.  She likes to lift my shirt and give my tummy kisses (often playing with my bellybutton) and says "Love you baby boy".  However I wonder how much she really understands.  Does she know that a baby is going to be coming in the next few months?  Does she have any idea how a newborn is going to change things?  Of course, our talks will continue and we hope that when he does arrive, the little lady will adjust to being a new big sister.

Gate Mama

This past family day was a relaxing day off for both mommy and daddy.  After a quiet day at home, we had our family join us for dinner.  Aunts, Uncles, cousins, and grandparents were at our house that night.  We were fortunate enough to even have Kennedy's two great-grandma's there.  Lucky "Gate Mama" as Kennedy calls them, got to participate in bath time as well.  We are so fortunate to still have these ladies be able to see our little girl grow up, and our family expand.  One with 19 great grandchildren the other with 6 (and two more on the way!)  They always love to see the little ones play and we are happy to share it with them :)

Girly girl

Our girly girl loves to hang out with boys, do her hair, paint her nails, and play with her babies. We love having a daughter but can't wait for the adventures of a son too!

Blue!

We had our ultrasound last week and we were thrilled to see an extra little "thing" that wasn't on the ultrasound that we had with Kennedy. A baby boy is on his way :) Like with Kennedy, we told our exciting news my having everyone bite into a cupcake to reveal blue icing for the baby boy. It was fun driving around sharing the news, and capturing everyone's picture on camera!

A fevered/coughy/stuff baby

This week we have had a fevered baby, which turned into a coughy baby, which turned into a stuffy nosed baby. Which resulted in a lot of interrupted nights for mommy, daddy, and baby. Hoping that she is on the mend and back to her normal temperatured, normal breathing self soon!
