Loving the Sun

Finally, the sun has arrived in Oklahoma! The last few days have been in the 70s and 80s...just perfect for me. Graham and I have been taking advantage of this incredible weather. We've been playing in the backyard and going to parks every day. Life is so much easier (and exciting) when we can actually both go outside and run around for a bit. I was made for warm weather. I love the fall and I love an occasional heavy snowfall, but deep down I was made for sunshine and warmth. Here's my little cutie releasing some of his wild boyhood energy!





Looking forward to more carefree days like this! Tomorrow is the beginning of April...wow, I can't believe it.

Spring is in Bloom

Spring time is quickly approaching, and all I can think about is that I'm ready to be skinny again. Ha! Ok, that's not all I can think about, but I am ready to fit into normal clothes again! I am just a few days away from entering my third trimester of this pregnancy. It's FLOWN by. Every day we are getting more and more excited about meeting our baby girl. Who, by the way, is still nameless. We're praying that we know her name soon. With her due date getting nearer, we have been in the "purging and organizing" mode, which has been wonderful. Trying to get rid of junk we don't need; getting Graham ready for his big boy room; organizing and cleaning like crazy. We even bought a beautiful new dresser for our master bedroom! Now Ryan can actually keep his clothes in our room. We are determined to make a comfortable home as a family of 4 in this 1350 square foot house! We're just trying to simplify and it feels good.
And I feel good too, just getting bigger every day. I'm trying to stay active, chasing after and entertaining my little toddler boy. But some days this hard. I just get tired more quickly. We are so excited warm weather is around the corner. I was MADE for warm weather and sunshine. I look forward to lots of park days, zoo dates and plenty of time by the pool over these next 3 months. Plus, did I mention I'm ready to CUT my hair?? I have this thing with keeping it long while I'm pregnant. I feel like my face gets fatter, so therefore I need to keep it longer. Anyway, it's killing me. I just want to chop it off. But I'll try to hold off for a bit longer!
Here's a sweet picture of our baby girl...full of LIGHT already!! Can't wait for the world to meet her!
