2 Years Ago...

2 years ago...I was laying in a hospital bed, turning over and putting down a magazine.

2 years ago...Garth was trying to sleep on the waiting room floor of the hospital.

2 years ago...to almost this very minute my water broke.

2 years ago...the happiest day of our life was about to begin!

November 13th...

was a very good day! We found out we are having a beautiful, healthy, baby GIRL! Addy is going to have a baby sister!

I have been dreading November 13th. Everything was before the 13th or after the 13th. Would we be excited, or sad? I had no reason, other then some bleeding at the beginning, to think that something was wrong but I still thought the worst.

I remember being at Addy's sonogram and not even thinking something could be wrong until my mom started crying when the said everything looked great. Then it hit me...something could be wrong. I am so thankful that Addy was and is still perfect in every way. I couldn't help but think this would be different. I wanted to prepare myself in case something was wrong. Everywhere I turned someone had something wrong with their pregnancy. I am more than THANKFUL to God that we are going to have two healthy daughters at the end of this pregnancy!

my baby + a day off = FUN!!!

I had off last Tuesday so, Addy and I visited the pumpkin patch! {Days off are the best part of teaching!!! ;o)}

We went to a the "learning part" of the pumpkin patch that had a ton of animals...bunnies, cow, goats, alpaca, pigs, and chickens, a ton of open running space, a huge slide (too big for Addy), bikes, mazes, straw "trampolines" and more! Addy had a blast and loved every minute of our trip!







After all that "learning" we went on a hay ride to the pumpkin patch!







When we got home I asked Addy if she would let me take a picture of her and her pumpkins on the step and {gasp} she let me!



Yes, she has three pumpkins in this picture and many more at home now. Addy loves pumpkins!

I love days off! For one day last week and one this week I get to pretend to be a SAHM! I love those days!

Hello, September! Goodbye, September! Hello, October!

It's been awhile since I blogged...a real long while! It's hard to believe that it is almost October. Since August when been really busy getting back into some type of routine. I started work again :o( , Addy started back with Mimi and Daddy starts a new job on Monday. Lots has been going on.

When I first went back to work Addy wasn't happy. She spent a few {long} weeks not napping. We would hear "Momma, no work" a lot, my mom heard it more during nap time. She has finally worked it all out and loves being with Mimi and having time with "my dada" in the morning. Now we get to figure it all out again with Garth's new job. He will have MUCH more responsibility and will have to work longer hours and maybe Saturdays. I am sure Addy will do fine once she figures out "my dada's" new schedule.

We also found out that we are having a new baby in April! I am 12 weeks 2 days today. My body doesn't knew that yet because I am still nauseous. 2 days past 12 weeks, body...2 days...stop now!!! It has been a long 6 weeks. We found out we were pregnant and 2 weeks later I started having some bleeding, oh and I started school. It was very stressful. 2 weeks of spotting, 4 ultrasounds, and many doctors appointments later everything is fine! Praise God! My due date is April 9th...4 months after Addy's 2nd birthday. Some of our top names right now are...Callie and Kenley (girls), Keagen, Jack, and Will (boys). Who knows we just thought of those names and we change our minds daily. I will be surprised if one of those sticks!!! The one thing I do know for sure is a boys middle name will be McCullough! Just like granddaddy!

Addyson Mackenzie {Addy Mac} is named after her great granddaddy too! I took this picture at the Frederick Fair, where granddad used to harness race his horses. Granddad spent a lot of time sitting just like Addy and spent a lot of time right at this barn and racetrack. We thought it was pretty awesome that they had this set up!



Hopefully I will get back into the swing of taking pictures and posting them...but now you know why I haven't been ;o)

Too Funny!

Addy coming into the family room holding a bag of chips: "Ieatchip, Ieatchip, Ieatchip" {insert chip into mouth} "It good!"

Addy talking to Mimi: "Mimi, look, my dress, Mimi, look, my dress, Mimi, look, my dress...It cute!"

Too funny!

Helper

Yep, I think Addy might just be Daddy's little helper from here on out!







Okay, so she didn't help much but she sure does look cute and she loved standing on that chair with her Daddy!
