Rest of the pics

This is my amazing friend Lacey that put the whole thing together. She is so crafty. Isn't the cake great?? I loved it so thanks Lace.


I was so glad that my mother was able to be there. It was awesome to have some family. And Maddux is holding up on of the adorable gifts I recieved from cheri. She painted onesies for me. She wanted to make them a lil homemade. and they came out great. It says Ipood. hahaha

The Baby Shower..

So my parents brought Maddux home last night and it was so good to see him. I have missed him so much. But with them my mom also brought me the pics from the baby shower. I am obsessed with pink and brown so pretty much everything are those colors. So here are a few pics from that day.

This is maddux and his friend caleb



Tilden did a great job keeping all the kids entertained outside while all of us mothers were in the house playing. Tilden and my dad Randy where the only male adults in a house full of women and they did suprisingly well. (as long as we keep the food and goodies coming) haha
I have more pics to post but my computer is being weird again. so I will post them at another time. for now these are what I have.

Stil Patiently Waiting......

So we went to my doctor apt. yesterday and the doc said that I am already dilated to a 1 1/2 2. So I am probably going to get induced around the 18th. so that means only two more weeks. I can hardly wait. At this point I am just so anxious and nervous and excited. I have so many emotions going on that it is hard to stay patient. But everything looks good. and we are so excited to get to finally meet our lil princess. We will know for sure what day we are going to go in and have her next tues. So I will keep ya updated.

Let the Freedom Begin...

So Tilden and I have had a lot of free time together to actually go places and do things and not have to find a baby-sitter. We sure have been taking advatage of it, So We have had a lot of fun. We have been to the fair. We drove and hour and a half for it and it was still not even close to the good ole Idaho State Fair. we miss that most.... haha but while we were there I did have an exceptional corn on the cob. which has been an issue while being prego. I love it..... lol but we also got Bella a cowgirl hat and a few other little goodies. I of course had to leave with a carmel apple in hand. There was this awesome and amazing sculpture that this guy had done all out of sand. it was so cool. on our way back from that we stopped and saw a movie and then carried on home. Then next day we decided to go and get some last minute things before the baby gets here so we went back off the island and enjoyed a day of shopping and Olive Garden. And so here we are to yesterday, the Drive In was having a triple feature movie with 50 cent hot dogs and drinks. We so could not pass that up. but we definetly realized that when we got home at 3 in the morning why we dont do those things anymore. because we are getting older and cant handle it!!!!! I was so cramped up and stiff I felt like a Grandma. I guess we were trying to act like we were back in high school and thought we could stay out all night with no child. but in the end we just suffered. hahaha. But for now we are just laying low and have had our days of fun and adventure until Maddy comes home and can enjoy it with us. plus we are now broke.......

Here is the sculpture out of sand!!!




On the tractor ride to the car.

Oh so in love......

being silly on before we left the island...

Oh we love our dogs..

I grew up in a house with no animals. Our parents didnt think that it was good to have dogs where we lived so I never got that experience to have them. Well now I have and we have the best dogs. Dont get me wrong we have our issues here and there. especially with Tilly getting into things and chewing but that is to be epected. she is only 9 weeks old. But Dixie is also a little mischievious sometimes. but non the less we love them. And Maddux loves them to death. I am glad we have them as part of our famiy.

missing my baby.......

So my parents came up to have a quick visit on their way for some business and they stayed only one day. but it happened to be the perfect time because I was having my baby shower on saturday. So it was great to have them here for that. but in the sper of the moment they decided to take Maddux with them back to Idaho for a bit. The baby shower went great and I will have pictures up as soon as my mom makes me a copy of them. haha I thought them taking Maddy would be a great idea cuz he would have so much fun. And I am unable to take him back for a visit before the baby is born, but I am now realizing that it is so hard to be without him. I have only been without him once before like this and it was for our honeymoon. So I am missing him like crazy. I know that every mother out there has those days where they think when they are packing the car to go somewhere and they have to get everything ready,( snacks, juice, toy, stroller, and whatever else) that it is a pain in the butt and how easy it would be to just get it done without all that. but that is what we live for. at least I know I do. My every moment surrounds him and what he does. so not having him here is really weird. The house is so quiet and pretty clean. no toys to pick up. I thought it would be great to have a chance before Bella comes to get everything organized but I am now thinking that I still could have done it with him. and those everyday things that annoy me or the hard days that bug me are not so bad. and I would rather have those days then be without him. I love my lil man and I am so lonely without him. I love being a mother and wouldn't trade it for the world. It makes me so thankful that I have a great little boy that is so smart and adorable. I cant wait until he comes home and I can kiss his cute lil lips and give him a huge hug. I am so thankful..... and very blessed.......

finally.....

Alright so here are all of the pics I tried posting last night. It finally worked.
