From My Bookshelf...
It’s been awhile since I’ve shared some favorite books! Being an avid reader I pretty much always have something checked out from the library, or an old favorite from my bookshelf, on hand. I thought I’d share the two books I’m currently reading and maybe inspire some summer reading of your own!
If there is one genre of book I love more than any other, it’s...

Two words: Painfully. Cute.
Just enjoying a hot summer day with my boys in our sandbox turned baby pool!

Beatboxer...
{Mr. Pheeny on the 4th of July}
Short story for your Sunday night:
Just when I thought this kid couldn’t get any funnier, he’s decided to take up beatboxing. I think this might have stemmed from an episode of “The Electric Company” on PBS Kids (the only television shows they watch). He started his repertoire with two words...

If you can overlook the bad lighting/background/weird way I’m holding my pinky fingers (what is WITH that??), you can laugh along with me at my ever-expanding bump that looks more like a beer gut in this picture.

Catching up....
This photo pretty much captures life at the moment. Me: a little dazed and just plain worn out, sporting a giant belly for 20 weeks. Our new home: 10 days in and still mostly in disarray.

{Our sweet little baby}
….little GIRL!
We are over the moon excited to announce we’ll be adding a sweet baby girl to the family in December!! I’m not even sure if my words would be coherent if I tried to explain my feelings right now. We would have gladly welcomed any child, but are feeling especially blessed this evening...

Boy or Girl?
{My 17 week bump. The sweet (and still a little sleepy) big brother sitting behind me}
Dear little turnip (yes, that’s how big you are this week),
Tomorrow is the big day. Your dad and I are about to split with excitement to see if the ultrasound tech we saw first guessed correctly. Will it be big brothers’ blue clothes you’ll be sportin’ or something...
