My little peanut McGee is moving =)

Just a little update on my little peanut... I began feeling he or she move about a week ago! I love this milestone at it makes the pregnancy feel real! I also had the neastest thing happen that didn't in my other 2 pregnancies.... I could feel something in the left side of my tummy and when I pushed in I could feel a round thing... the baby! It was so awesome because the baby was so tiny and I could feel this roundnes like the size of a golfball but a little bigger! David and I both have been very excited about these new changes! I'm 15 weeks along and we'll all get to hear the heartbeat at my appt. on Wednesday! Dakota said the other day... I can't wait to hear the baby's heartbeat! =)

Emma's fishing pictures

Here's the rest of the pictures from fishing. Emma enjoyed trying to catch a "big one" for herself! She got a bit restless but had a lot of fun too. I enjoyed the wonderful afternoon spent with my family! =)

Fishing with Papa Dodd

Dakota loved fishing with Papa Dodd! =)




My dad was in town over the April 21st weekend and the kids really enjoyed his visit. They love playing with there Papa Dodd especially building legos with him. The favorite part of the weekend was when we all went fishing on Sunday. Dakota was the only one to catch any fish (with just a little help from daddy) but we all had fun trying, even Emma! =)

Easter =)

We had a wonderful but chilly Easter. We went to church, had a fun afternoon with David's family, an indoor Easter egg hunt, a delicious dinner (David and I prepared plus some help from my mother-in-law), and a nice evening with my brother and his family. Dakota had so much fun hunting for eggs inside along with is cousin Hannah (Emma was sound asleep). Dakota and Emma also really enjoyed there Easter baskets full of all kinds of goodies! We've all still been enjoying all that yummy Easter candy!! =)

Coloring Easter Eggs =)

Dakota had a blast coloring Easter eggs this year (David and I did too but Emma missed out because she was sound asleep). Dakota liked drawing on the eggs and putting them in all the different bowls of dye. We all had fun putting funny sticker faces on them when they dried. Coloring Easter eggs is one of my favorite family traditions and can't wait for next year when Emma will be able to join in on the fun. =)

Baby's 2nd photo =)

Here's Baby M's 2nd photo. At my appt. on April 5th Dr. Kennedy couldn't get a good heartbeat so she did another ultrasound. It was so cool because I could see the little arma and especially the little legs moving all around. I've never had an ultrasound at almost 12 weeks. The heartbeat was going strong at 160. I could even see the cute little profile of my little baby too. =)

3 months pregnant

Here I am 3 months pregnant with a start of a tummy. The maternity clothes are back out and in full force because they are comfortable and well by the 3rd pregnancy it's all about the comfort! =)

Our little lady

Emma is now 16 months old. She's my little monkey and climbs on everything.... chairs, beds, the swingset slide... she's a little daredevil. She's mommy's little sidekick and is always by my side and I mean always. She loves to draw and wil do so even on the walls. She likes playing with her big brother but he doesn't always like to play with her. She's our little lady and loves to play dressup with her play jewelry. She's a little bundle sunshine and loves to spend time outdoors too. She'll get outside any chance she gets. We also call her our little bird because she doesn't eat very much. Her favorite foods are cheese, pasta, ramen noodles, and strawberries. She loves to drink strawberry milk too. She's so cute and loves to eat Sour Patch Kids (she's just like her mama). Oh yeah the boo boo on her face above her lip is from a fall she took in the playroom on one of the storage bins. Ouch! =(

My little outdoorsman

Dakota is almost 3 1/2 years old now and loves all things outdoors. He had discovered frogging in our pond and had a fun day of it with his daddy. They found a frog (finally), many crawdads, and even a salamander. Dakota had a blast! I'm sure there will be many more frogging days this summer. He's also enjoyed a few days of fishing too. He LOVES to fish and would do so everyday. So far he hasn't had any luck with catching a fish but he isn't going to give up and can't wait for the weather to turn warm again so he can go fishing with his daddy. =)

My little pot o' gold! =)

Baby #3 is on the way... I'm pregnant! Dakota and Emma will have another sibling joining them sometime in the middle of October. Dakota is soooo excited and has nicknamed the baby Poppy Dadunkus. He loves to say hi to the baby and kisses my tummy often. Emma doesn't really know what's going on.

This is the shirt I wore on St. Patrick's day (also David's birthday) to share the good news with our firehouse friends.

I've had A LOT of naseau and been extremely tired but excitement is growing more and more everyday! Please keep me in your prayers for a healthy pregnancy! =) I'll keep you updated with pregnancy pics along the way! =)
