baby girl -- 24, 26, & 28 weeks

So, as always, I'm super behind on blogging. I'm now 32 weeks with baby girl and can't wait to meet her in (hopefully) 8 weeks! I haven't done a veggie/fruit picture the last couple of weeks but hope to do one this week.


 This was a memorable week as I had pink eye for the first time ever. There was no looking at the camera that week. :)

I'm having a lot of fun doing the baby's nursery! It's coming along little by little. The last big project is to paint the crib.

baby girl -- 20 weeks

So I was suppose to take my 22 week picture the weekend we got back from vacation but it didn't happen. I just decided to wait since 24 weeks is just around the corner for me!

baby girl -- 12-18 weeks

I have been taking progression pictures this pregnancy with a fruit or vegetable that is about the size of the baby. Riley has totally been into this and he likes to hold the objects and pretend they're the baby. He will tickle my stomach and ask if the baby likes it and carry on conversations with her. He is good at one sided conversations. :)




I can feel the baby moving all the time these days and Matt got to feel her first the first time on the day she turned 18 weeks, I feel so huge this time and have since the beginning. I'm not sure if it's because it is my 4th pregnancy or because it's a girl. I'm craving spicy foods like I never have before. I've always loved spicy food but never this spicy! I used 2 fire packets and 3 hot sauces on one taco the other day and it still wasn't spicy enough. :)

zoo trip

We went to visit the zoo in September. It was a really hot day but the kids loved it!


Riley was happy he got to hug an "animal".


The giraffes and elephants were my favorite part of the zoo. 



It was cool that you could see the manatees up close and under water!


Instagrams -- September & October

Riley wanted to be "wrapped up like a baby" when he woke up from a nap one day... little cutie... Weston has really gotten into reading these days... enjoying an afternoon at the park...
we got to go to a Gator game last month, thanks to some friends giving us tickets... the boys were sound asleep halfway through the game... I love when he's all wrapped up and looking babyish... picnic time...

Weston was doing some dramatic "crying" and "talking" while Riley was praying... baby boy was so tired but wouldn't nap so we snuggled... they were having such cute conversations under the table...
Riley wanted to wear Matt's motorcycle gloves on a bike ride... I just love this little guy... yummy potato soup... it was a nice fall day for a car show with the family... Weston wanted to help push the buggy while grocery shopping... the boys were licking limes and Weston's face says it all :)

Instagrams -- August

 it's rare when Weston falls asleep in my arms so I enjoy the times that it happens... little man loves to sit in rocking chairs by himself... I took the boys to a kid's gymnastic gym to play and they had a blast. Riley liked jumping into the foam pit... I was doing flash cards with Riley when he took them all and started organizing by color... Riley got to sleep in his tent for his birthday... trying to take a picture with the 3 year old and it was pretty much impossible to get him to look at the camera...
Riley got boots for his birthday and he loves wearing them. For about 2 weeks he brought them to me before breakfast every morning and asked for help putting them on... Weston has moved in with Riley and they are loving sharing a room... Riley holding his cousin Toby...

the boys love playing in the spicket... baby Weston was so tired after playing outside that he kept laying on the rug while I made dinner... my little farmer baby trying on hats at the hardware store...
when Matt and I went away for our anniversary we ate at an old dinner that my dad use to eat at in his single days... having fun trying on goofy sunglasses... Weston giving me kisses for the first time...

four years

I spent the last four years married to my best friend and I couldn't be more content. He shows me his love every day in such practical ways. I am more in love with him today than I was the day I married him.

Matt and I got to spend three days in St. Augustine without the kiddos and it was a nice getaway time where we could talk without constant interruptions and sleep past 7 o'clock. :)

St. Augustine is like my favorite city. I love the old buildings, the brick roads and the breeze!





 We climbed the St. Augustine lighthouse, which was my first time.

The view was gorgeous! We got up there right before a rainstorm hit. I was so nice and breezy at the top.



Matt climbed the lighthouse a second time without me and took this picture from the top. The speck on the stairs is me. :)

We didn't take this picture until after climbing and it had started raining.
