EXTRA! EXTRA!


I'm soooo sorry this is soooo late and most of you know already but if you don't...Nola's going to be a big sister! We are due on Sept 4th but I am measuring late August so let's hope for August. I was VERY sick in the beginning, throwing up about twice a day, but that wasn't enough for any kind of medicine. Go figure! Anyway I am a little over 15 weeks and feeling much much better now. I do think we are going to find out this time because I feel there are so many more decisions to make. Also, we want to see what it is like to know since we didn't find out with Nola.
Check back for more updates soon!

The Circus is in Town!

As a Valentine's Present, I surprised Jay & Nola with tickets to the Circus.
Our friends the Danas & Egans were going also.


It was raining really hard so it was a great time for Nola to debut her new raincoat and rain boots. Doesn't she look so stylish?



We rode with the Danas and Nola immediately was right next to Ashley Dana.
"On our way to the circus!"


"Here we go Nola!"


We got there early for the Pre-Show. We were front row for some of the trapeze artists and for the special elephant show.


Waiting for the elephant!

And here she comes....Guess what her name was....Kelly Ann (I won't spell it like mine for obvious reasons) but I couldn't believe it!

At least she had a good talent...she painted for us.
Really cool!

The show was awesome!

Everything they were selling was ridiculously overpriced. $9 for lemonade, $22 for a a blinky spin light. They're crazy, but we had to get at least one souvenir so Nola picked light up animal ears and Ellie the elephant.

The Danas

The Andersens

Nola's favorite part was the elephants.

She talked about this part for days!

Girlfriends

More elephants

There were so many different things in the show, but I guess I was in awe and only took pics of elephants. Jay must of said Wow about 50 times. I don't know who liked it more Jay or Nola. I'm glad we all had such a great time! I'm sure we'll go again!

Nola LOVES taking pictures with our camera and she is doing really well. It doesn't really surprise me since she has been around the camera since birth, but she doesn't always like to get her picture taken anymore. We usually have to bribe her. She rather be behind the camera. She loves being able to see it on the screen and then snap.

"Ode to school work"

She was able to capture the foot picture I couldn't when she was a baby! :)

"Animal Farm"


"Chaos"

She still has to work on getting her finger out of the way!



Saturday night the McGoeys, Smiths & Foxes came over. The girls all played very well together. I still can't get over how happy Sara is. She is adorable.

Sara eating dinner!

The big girls dinner table....sorry Sara you will be there soon.

And the best for last...we have caught Nola coloring 3 times this week on our carpet. This was the last straw! She lost tv time!

What are we going to do?
At least we are capturing memories for her.
HeeHee!
