A few Ryden updates

- Ry is getting ready to be a big brother.  He talks to my belly and gives it kisses.
- We installed the car seat in the car and Ryden always points to it and says "Trevin's seat"
- We are doing awesome on the potty training!  He wears big boy pants whenever we are at home and never pees in them.  We just need to work on him telling us when he has to go.  Then I think we can venture out in public with underwear on.  The other downfall is he will not poop in the potty.  Seems to stress him out a little bit.
- He has adjusted like a champ to his big boy bed but his bedtime seems to be getting later and later.  That is why we try to do early naps.
- He talks so clearly now and I laugh at the things he says.  He picked up my bra the other day and said "Mama's boobies" 
- The boy loves his temporary tattoos as you can tell.  Dada gave him a sleeve the other day 
-  He loves his little pool.  He will play outside for hours!  The weather has been amazing here so its nice to just hang outside all afternoon.
I think Dada enjoys it too
This picture was taken 9 days before my due date.  Now it's down to 7.  We are ready! (as you can tell from my oh so happy face in this picture)









Welcome to the two year old club Moses

Moses had a pirate themed birthday at the park on Saturday.  I am officially the worst photographer ever because the picture above is the only one I got of the birthday boy!  I did get a few pictures of some pirates
Miss Ainsley was there and Ryden had the best time making her laugh
Seems every time I hold the little girl she starts crying...hmmmm...not a good sign.  But I still hold her every chance I get!  Sorry I don't have more fun pics but these days I don't have a lot of energy to do much!  Happy Birthday MoMo!

Trev's room...finally done!

Sorry for the horrible pictures but you get the idea....
Cool surfer mural on the wall
Cute picture my friend Julie did....she wrote his name in the sand and gave it to me for my baby shower...love it!

Hand-me-downs from Ryden...these walls are still a little bare.  Need some work
Picture of Mama, Dada, Ryden, and Trev in the belly
Simple for now.....will try to add some more pictures once I get Trev's newborn photo shoot done

Pax rolls into town

The Izzets came to town from Phoenix for a quick weekend visit.  On Saturday, I met up with them at Legoland.  Ryden and Pax were so funny together.  Lots of hugs, holding hands, and sharing snacks.  We had the best time!  Jade and Adam were super impressed with the mini lands made out of Lego's...I was bored.  Ha!
Jade and I were watching the boys while they played in the play area.  They got out of our sight and when they rounded the corner we found them holding hands.  We cracked up!
We also managed to ride a few rides and play on some slides
By 2pm we were all tuckered out (Jade is preggers too..due in January) so we headed back to my house.  The boys played in the backyard for a few hours straight while we watched.  The swings were a hit
The next morning the boys seemed to do a complete 180.  Pax was wanting to wrestle with Ryden and of course Ry is my sensitive Sally and would cry when he did this.  They were both in moods.  No more sharing, holding hands, or hugging.  Oh well...at least we got one good day.  Thanks for visiting guys....see you soon hopefully!










Happy Birthday Nick!

Last weekend we celebrated Nick's birthday.  Another year younger..
Nick's mom was in town from Brazil.  So nice to meet her.  She is an awesome lady and a great storyteller.  We had a good time hanging out and eating cake made by Melinda (it had fruit in it...so healthy!)  Happy Birthday Nick!

36 Weeks

4 more weeks!!  4 more weeks!! 4 more weeks!!
It's all becoming more real.  Jason and I are going to be the parents of two boys in less than a month!  This pregnancy has flown by and lets hope the last month does as well.  Every thing is fine with my placenta which means I will not need a C-section unless for other reasons.  My bag is almost fully packed and ready for the hospital (babe can come anytime now although we hope he doesn't).  We are very excited to meet this little one but everything also seems a little surreal.  But we are ready.  Let's do this!
