Zoo Fun


Yesterday, Adam, mom and I took Bella to the zoo - what a great way to celebrate a beautiful March day! It was packed, I guess alot of people had the same idea:) We made it to most of the animals that we talk about all the time and she loved them all except the Gorillas, she was terrified!! Screaming, tears...we had it all over those gorillas! Adam is now gone for the week so we are trying to stay busy and not think about him being gone! Hope everyone has a great week too!

June 5th is the Date

I went for my 28 week check up yesterday - regular appointment, but I did get to schedule my C-Section. We will finally get to meet Olivia Reese on June 5th, assuming she doesn't come early! It's kind of nice to have a date, but 11 weeks still seems sooo far away!!!

I Like Chucky Cheese!


Last night was our first adventure to Chucky Cheese with Isabella. We also took Joey and I do believe he would live there if allowed, he really just can't get enough of the chaos. She was pretty indifferent to the whole deal. She did not care much about riding the rides, but thoroughly enjoyed being able to freely run around. Right before we left Chucky came out to greet the kids and we were able to grab a picture with him, Bella clung on so tightly to me while Joe gave high five after high five. A fun (but tiring) night!

An Unscheduled Trip to My OB


Last Thursday I woke up at 4 am with severe pains in my lower stomach. The pains persisted, through late morning so I called my doctor. They told me to come in. They checked me out and did an ultrasound. They couldn't say for sure what was causing the pain, but they said that Olivia was pushed up against that part of my stomach and that was most likely the cause. I felt better after hearing that. I thought with the 2nd baby, I wouldn't get as nervous over everything, but you forget what things feel like...at least I do. I did however get a pretty darn cute picture of her face. She sure does like to have her hands up by her face, so it took a couple of tries. The other good part, is that the ultrasound tech confirmed once again that Olivia is in fact a girl! 13 more weeks and we get to meet her:)

I LOVE to Swim

We signed Bella up for swimming lessons again at the YMCA. Her first lesson was last Saturday, and boy does she LOVE it!! She never stopped smiling the entire time we were in the water. Her friend Brody and his mom are doing it with us, so we are having lots of fun:).
After swimming we decided to take the kids to the Magic House. I haven't been since I was a kid. It was CRAZY!!! There were kids and parents everywhere, but Bella & Brody didn't mind a bit! Bella's favorite part I think was the water tables, the kitchen area was a close second. My plan is to try it during a week day next time, hopefully a little less chaotic!
(Will post pictures soon!)

Watch Me Grow TOO!!
