23 weeks and kicking

Been awhile since I have posted a baby update! We are now 23.5 weeks along. She is an active little booger and I am enjoying feeling her jab the crap out of insides. Funny how different my pregnancies have been. Conan moved a lot as well only it felt like he was rolling around in jello. This baby is a jabber. She kicks my bladder, then my ribs, my back and anything else that gets in her way. I know exactly when she is awake and playing.

I can't believe we are already at 6 months. It has gone by so fast and it is so much fun watching Conan get "into" this whole little sister thing. I still have a ton of stuff to try and finish before she gets here.

A and A and my sis have been working on my baby shower and man am I getting excited. I didn't have an official shower with Conan so this experience is new and thrilling. I feel very lucky to get to share this experience with so many great people.

I am also full swing into planning Conan's 4th birthday party. We are having lots of company and it should be an awesome time! O and I love the month of October, I plan on doing some fun Halloween stuff with Conan!

We had a good visit with Taylor yesterday and it was nice seeing her. :)

he always wants a picture with his baby sister!

We want some PIE!

I was sick all weekend and somewhere in there Conan got this big idea to make a blueberry pie. So, today we got out the stuff and made us some pie!!! I have discovered my son loves to cook. Well, should I say that anything that looks like a weapon...(spoons, whisks, etc..) is fun to do. He actually helped quite a bit. I love this age, he gets super excited about stuff and can participate on such a mature level. Makes me a little sad really! :)

Anyway, Chris gets desert tonight!

Pie before the oven.

Pie after the oven!

Star Wars!

You should have seen his face when we rounded the corner and the characters came into view. Yikes, he was so excited. I wasn't sure how he would react. I wasn't to worried, I mean my kid knows no stranger. But still, their presence was pretty cool. he walked right up and shook their hands and turned to pose for me! Yay! It was a ton of fun and Conan had a good time with Jake. Thanks for the tickets!

A proud moment!

Ever get those moments where you fill so full of love and pride that you feel like your gonna burst? Well, I had one of those today and I think I will remember it forever. I love being a mom to a little boy. Conan is so full of life and love it makes me swell. Chris and I both had such a blast at his first t-ball game tonight and we can't wait for the next one! I am so glad I get to be a part of such an awesome little guy! (Oh and his Dad, he is about the best coach out there, at least in my opinion and we all know that I am not the least bit biased. :)

GO CUBS!!!

MIA

I have been MIA for a while now for a good reason, now things should resume their normal state of activity!
Whew!

Conan made this picture of his family for Taylor to hang up at her camp. He even made sure I included his baby sister in my tummy. He helped me cut out the figures and glue it on the paper.
(notice how his had to be the "biggest", we are going through a very competitive age right now)

Always wrestling around - I love my boys!

Conan waiting for Jake's party to get started. It was a Star Wars themed party and the glow stick light sabers were a hue hit!

Conan and Jake

Here are a few from the Dallas Children's Museum we went to on Labor Day. Conan loved diggin for bones and all the cool interactive activities.

Conan's first t-ball season, and his Daddy is the coach!!! I know a few tears will be shed before the season is over! (from me) Their uniforms are so stinking cute. His first game is this Friday and I will have lots of pics to share!

We are going to Austin this weekend to celebrate Taylor's 16th birthday....I will have lots to post next week!
