12 weeks, movin right along :-)

Funny when I was pregnant the first time It couldnt have moved any slower, and with Miss Gracelynne it just flew by, probably because I was busy with little man, he was only 11 months old when she was born (yes I know what causes this LOL frequent question Im asked in random places by strangers, I laugh it off and say, " I think we may have figured it out ;-) ) Anyways, this time it has been going by fast, but I order these stickers off Etsy, and want to take pictures of my soon to big ole belly :-) Here are the 12 weeks pictures!

Fall is almost here, so let the decorating begin!

So I have been waiting out the end of summer, to welcome my favorite season: fall. I love fall here in Oregon, the leaves, all the colors, the crisp hair, everything is so beautiful. Come Sept. 1st I was ready for summer to come to an end and welcome fall with open arms. I made a trip to the good ole dollar tree and this is what all I came up with!



This is my window decor above my sink, everything but apothocary jar is the dollar tree, the jar was $9 at Ross :-)


My dollar tree wreath, LOVED how it turned out!



These are in my windows by my dining table, love the dollar store apples!



And last but not least, my table, I love the cute little pumpkins!


Still have a lot more I want to do, but it's got the feel of fall around here, and let me tell ya Im likin it, a whole lot :-) I am trying to get the front porch in the fall spirit too! I will post more pictures when I accomplish that!

Coast Trip

My momma and I took the kids to the beach. Here in Oregon nice beach days are few and far between, but it happend to be 90 degrees that day! Down on the beach is was still pretty winding, but still a great day at the oregon coast!

Noah did not like the sand at first, he cried all the way down till we got on the wet hard stuff, that's my boy :-) Gracelynne on the other hand loved it and plopped down right away to began playing, and that's my girl :-) Love how they are so unique with their own little personalitys, or big ones!

News, news and more news!!

Where to begin when I have been such a blog slacker. So last time I posted we went to Arizona. July is an eventful month because both Noah and Gracelynne's birthdays are in July.

Gracie turned 2 years old on July 7th :-) We went to Red Robin where she ordered Mac & Cheese! We came home and did presents. Her favorite was her new Jessie doll from Toy Story. She also got a trike, which she can already peddle by herself. She had a minnie mouse cake, because minnie is her new favorite! It was a great day, I cannot believe my little baby girl is already 2!





Noah turned 3 July 28th. We had a joint birthday for them at a Pizza Parlour. It went very well, almost everyone showed and the kids were spoiled! Noah had a Toy Story themed party, it was really cute!




And as of August 11, 2010 I am a married woman! The kids dad and I have been together 7 years in December and we decided one morning to get married (we were already engaged) and I made the plans and we got married that night at 7:30. It was simple and beautiful and so perfect. I am so happy I made the last minute decision. Just my parents, his best friend, my two best friends came. I loved how simple it all was, there was no fuss or hoopla!






And the biggest announcement of all is March 26th, 2011 we are expecting the arrival of our 3rd child. March 26th was my sisters birthday, I just think this is a miracle and such a blessing. We are also not going to peek, and wait till the baby is born to find out if we are having a baby boy or little baby girl! Noah is very excited and wants a brother, and guess what Gracie wants a sister-go figure!
