Happy Birthday to...

Bella!

On Saturday, Little Miss Attitude turned 5 years old! You bring such joy and spunk into our lives! We can't imagine what life would be like without you! Here are some of my favorite pictures...

The day I brought you home. You were so tiny, weighing under 2 lbs!














Your first bath..


Being small enough to fit in Andrew's pocket...


And how you love your snuggle ball!

20 weeks (and a few days): the halfway point

It is really hard to believe that we are halfway there! Bishop is the size of a large banana and will be here before we know it! It's getting very exciting around here, as we start to plan and pick things out for his nursery! I feel him move all the time now, and I just love it! I keep trying to get Andrew to catch one of the bigger kicks - or punches or whatever it is - but it hasn't happened quite yet! My energy level is definitely up, and I am loving the 2nd trimester so far. Yesterday I was treated to a prenatal massage, and let me say, that I can't wait to use the next gift certificate! I've been having problems with my sciatic nerve, and it really helped relieve the pain. 


We go back to the doctor on Thursday for another check-up and our anatomy sonogram. They will examine every inch of him by sonogram, and we are prayerful for a positive report. We will also get some new pictures of him, which is such a treat!

You can tell from the picture that Bella and Sully have no idea how their lives will change in 5 short months! They would not stop whining at my feet, so we had them join the picture!
