Guess our Babys Gender

Since the Big Ultrasound is only 3 weeks away I thought I would set up an online baby pool just for fun, so make your guesses! I will lock the game on April 26th so no more guesses can be made after that date.

16 week prenatal appointment

I had my 16 week check up today. I have gained 10 pounds so far, my blood pressure was great and the doctor said that so far my blood sugars look really good. I hope I won't get gestational diabetes like I did with Nathan. I have been trying to eat low carb foods. The baby's heart rate was 157 and I am measuring right where I should be. My Ultrasound is scheduled for April 27th, can't wait to see the baby again and hopefully find out the gender.

Easter Egg Hunt #1


Yesterday we took the kids to Kevin's work Easter Egg hunt. They split the kids up by age and they all just dive into these piles of shredded paper that have empty eggs hidden and collect as many as they can. Then they draw numbers and if the number is on your egg you win a prize. None of our kids won a prize but they all got a tiny stuffed animal and candy at the end. I think the kids all had fun. 
Waiting to start
 
Gabby liked the bunny

Nathan did not like the bunny
 Avalynn would not sit with the bunny but she had no problem taking candy from him

Brother

Hard to explain how I can miss you so much when I didn't ever get a chance to know you.
Some day in Heaven I will see you again

Make your Taco Meat. Layer of Salsa on the bottom, Tortillas, Meat, Beans, cheese, etc. Keep layering for last layer just use tortilla, beans , and then towards the last bit of cooking top with cheese.


Warm beans for easier spreading. You can add or take away any items. Top with Sour Cream, Guacamole, whatever your family likes.
