Another VA trip....

This past weekend we all traveled down to VA to visit my dad and my sis, Nova. (My step-mom, Christine is in Kuwait working.) It was a very relaxing weekend. Nova and I took Abishai to the Virginia Living Museum to see the fish and wildlife, while my dad and Andy went golfing. We enjoyed some good cooking, thanks to dad and Andy!! Oh, I almost forgot, I was finally introduced to the game of Wii. I thought I had fallen in love. :) It was pretty fun and I beat Andy most of the time in golf and bowling!! Maybe one day we will get one of these things, not sure yet though. Here are some pics  from the weekend.

Va trip to see Grandma and Grampa Len.

This past weekend I took Abishai to visit my mom and step-dad. We had a nice, quiet ride down, and no so peaceful ride home. Nonetheless, it was a nice weekend visiting family and friends. I got to get together with two of my good girlfriends from high school. Rachel has an almost two year old and Nicole is due any time now with her first, a baby boy. Here are a few pics from my trip.

Lately.......

Here are a few pics of what we have bee doing. Abishai is getting bigger by the day. He is starting to get used to taking baths and he likes to sleep on his belly. ( I know they're not supposed to but I am sitting right there!) This past weekend some of my moms side of the family came to visit and meet Abishai. We grilled out and took some family pics. It was a little difficult with the sun. We do look kinda silly. Also we had some improvement to our kitchen. New sink and counter!! I am loving it!!

Napping on the couch. ( I was laying there also)

Bath time with Daddy

Sitting up on the couch like a big boy

A good use for a deep sink

I colored and cut my sisters hair, she had some things needing to be fixed..

We had a bunny in our yard a few times and I guess she thought it was a safe place to leave her babies. Did she not see the obnoxious dogs?! Andy caught these and put them in a front yard bush that the bunny frequents.  And heck no I am not keeping them!!

Finally here!!

Baby Abishai made his appearance on Friday April 17at 6:58pm est. It was a long Thursday night and full day of labor but it was all worth it. He is such a sweet little boy we just love him!! Here are a few pics from his birth and bringing him home. 

Here is the happy family after all of the drama........seriously the scariest day of my life!!

Here's the little one is his swing. He's peeking over his blanket, isn't it cute?!

Here's the proud daddy!!

Grandma was there to help us out around the house and see the baby when he arrived!!

I like this close up one. He doesn't really look quite as full in the face anymore though. He is changing everyday!!!

38 wks

Here's a recent pic from Yesterday. I'm now 38 wks, 2 days.I really love this yellow top, one day it will actually fit!!  We haven't been taking too many pics lately, it has been busy around here keep up with the little puppies.

Fun things to come.........

This is going on week 37. I am getting really anxious about Abishai to finally get here! This weekend my Dad and step mom and Nova came down to visit and brought us tons of goodies!!

The new carseat! Andy's mom made this blanky. I think it's the coolest because it says Abishai's name all around the edges!!
That's them working hard.....
Andy and Chris worked for a while to put this thing together, it wasn't too easy. I can just say it is really cool, it plays music and does a lit of things but Andy will be taking care of that pack n play! It's pretty complex. I wanted to go for simple but you know Andy. 
Here is the proud father about to give birth!! .......oh wait.........

35 Weeks

Just a quick update, I haven't had a picture taken since February. This is 35 weeks and don't I look happy?......
