pretty pretty princess

one of evie's favorite bday gifts was her princess tent she got from brad & charissa. she LOVES it. she spends as much time in it as possible. she even loves the fun princess outfit that comes with. what is even more adorable is she asks us to take a picture of her when she gets all dressed up. "evie pitchaa?! cheeeeeeeeeez"

she's pretty darn cute....don't you think?!?

evie's 2nd bday party

we celebrated evie's 2nd bday with a room full of family and friends. it was a wonderful afternoon! evie was a tad more shy than normal, but was bouncing off the walls from all the candy!

i themed the party this year "candy shop." i had a ton of fun getting the house ready for the party this year. the biggest accomplishment, by far, was the large dum-dum sucker i made. so much fun! the kiddos all took home a toothbrush to get rid of all the sugar on their teeth! :)

It's a........

halfway!!!!

i'm already twenty weeks pregnant and i'm still shocked. if the second half of pregnancy goes as fast as the first half...we are going to be holding a baby before we know it! today we had our ultrasound and all looked great. the baby measured 11 ounces and had a heart rate of 148 bpm. the tech had nothing but great things to say about the physical development. baby has all its fingers & toes!!

on sunday, we will announce the gender! so place your bets by clicking here!!!
