Dress Up

Since the day Blake was born, Bailey and Livvy have treated him like one of the girls. It was bound to happen with two older sisters. They put bracelets, necklaces, and headbands on him. Poor guy can't do a thing about it.

Baby Blake

It's been too long since I've posted pictures of my little boy. He's four months now and we love him to death. I never knew having a boy would be so much fun!

Blake is here!

Our little Blake is finally here! My due date was Nov 19th and he still hadn't come. The doctor sent me for an ultra sound and monitoring and noticed that the baby wasn't responding very much. They sent me to the hospital to do more monitoring and possibly be induced. They monitored me for a few hours and ended up sending me home. They had me come back Sunday afternoon for more monitoring. My blood pressure was high, so they decided to induce me. He arrived Monday morning at 11:33am weighing 8lbs, 11oz and measuring 20 1/2 inches. The umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck 3 times, but everything ended up being fine. He's very healthy and cute, and we love him a ton!

Halloween

For Halloween my mother in-law made the girls kimonos. They decided that they wanted to be Mulan, so we painted their faces white and put some chopsticks in their hair. I think they make pretty cute Mulans.

Cow Appreciation Day

A few weeks ago, we went to Chick-fil-a for Cow Appreciation Day. If you dress up as a cow from head to toe, they give you a free value meal. It's a little embarrassing that I made them cat ears instead of cow ears. For some reason I couldn't remember what cow ears looked like. The girls loved being little cows for a few hours.

Shopping with the girls

I took the girls shopping with me while I looked for maternity clothes. Shopping with my kids is never a good idea. I don't know why I keep doing it. They both found things that they could not live without.

Bailey found a hideous maternity shirt that she just had to have. When I told her no, she threw the hugest fit. She begged and begged to take it home. She said it would make her beautiful.

Livvy wouldn't leave this manikin's side. She kept saying "it's so butiful." "Take a picture."

It's a Boy!!!

We had an ultra sound yesterday and found out that we'll be having a little boy. I thought it would be a boy because I've felt more crummy with this one than with my girls. So far we really like the name Blake, but we might change our minds as it gets closer. As we were leaving the doctor's office, Bailey said in a really stressed out voice, "Hey where's the baby?" She thought we'd be leaving with a baby so she was a little bummed. I guess the pictures just weren't good enough. Both girls are really excited to be big sisters.
