Pool Party!

A couple of weekends ago all the cousins (on my mom's side) got together to go swimming! It was so fun to sit back, relax, take pictures and watch them all swim together! I think Papa had the best time though- he loves being in the pool, especially with his three babies! :)

What a fun pool party for everyone!

Baby Shower!

A couple weekends ago I was given a wonderful baby shower from my sisters. It was so sweet of them! I really enjoyed my time. Yes, I got some really sweet baby girl outfits, but I also got a bunch of diapers, and a lot of wipes too! It was a beautiful morning and I was very blessed!

The yummy brunch food!

Look at all those gifts!

Some of the many ladies that were there!

One of many adorable baby girl outfits!

Yea, wipes!

Extra yea, DIAPERS!!!

A day away...

Tomorrow Matt and I get to spend a day at a hotel together! My sister and her husband got us a room, and the four of us are going to hang out, go to the pool, go out to dinner and enjoy our kid free day and night! I am very excited...a little break before baby girl comes! I will post pictures on Saturday!

Thanks Miranda & Kyle for this great treat!
Thanks Gramma & Grandpa Graham for taking care of our boy!

Happy Father's Day!

....to the best Dada, to the best little boy! I am so blessed to be able to watch you father my son (and soon to be daughter)!

I love you honey! Thanks for being such an amazing Father! What a blessing you are to us!

Baby Girl's Room!

Well, baby girl's room is almost all ready. We do not have the crib in her room yet, because Andrew is still enjoying it! We did not paint the room (really because we are renting), but I have added some fun touches to it to make it fun and girlie! Check it out for yourself!

The canvas' I painted for the room...

The changing table/dresser...


Look at all the clothes we have for her (most of them are from my sister, that my niece wore).

Some burp clothes I have made from her already!

A small but very full closet!

These plates are very special to me. They were in my room when I was a little girl and now they are in my little girl's room! I just love them.





This is where the crib will go, eventually!

There it is! Now we will just be waiting patiently to meet our sweet little girl!

Love, Love, Love, these boys!

I mean does it get any cuter than this? I don't think so!

Our talking boy...

Some cute things Andrew has said to me lately...

Andrew: Mama, Drew-Drew hungry...
Me: Oh yea, what would you like...
Andrew: Nana (banana) with no boo-boos

I was getting the baby's room organized the other day and getting all of Andrew's old baby toys out. This is what happened:
Andrew: Andrew's toys...
Me: Well when your sister comes they will be her toys...
Andrew: Andrew share nice with baby
Me: That is nice
Then Andrew comes over to me and says, Here belly, toy (he was trying to share the toys with his sister already). Such a sweet boy!

Me: Andrew it is almost nite-nite time
Andrew: No nite-nite time!
Me: Yes sir
Andrew: Mama nite-nite?
Me: You bet!
Andrew: You bet, Mama!

Me: Andrew, what should we have for dinner tonight (like a 2 year old is actually going to tell me)?
Andrew: Um, cake!
Me: Did you just say cake?
Andrew: Yes, Cake!


I am sure I will have more and more of these conversations now that Andrew is talking up a storm. Matt and I laugh about what he says daily!

Baby Update, almost 31 weeks

Well things are going well with Baby Girl Loveall!
A friend of mine gave me an ultra-sound last week and YES, this girl is measuring very big (according to my due date). She is in the 80th percentile and i am measuring 2 weeks ahead for her size. And YES this girl is breech (as of now). I have been told she has plenty of time to turn and a lot of times they do not turn/drop until 34 weeks at the earliest. I think she may have turned but will find out for sure at 34 weeks (when I have another ultra-sound). I have done my research and I will try my hardest to do every trick in the book to get her to move too! I only gained 1 pound over the past two weeks, so I was much happier about that! I feel huge, but I think that is just the inevitable at this point in my pregnancy. I still have a feeling she will be early, but only time will tell! I am back to being exhausted, so I nap when Andrew does these days.

Baby girl Loveall's room is almost all done. We have a few pictures to hang up, and the crib is still in Andrew's room (he is still in it and is refusing to sleep in his big boy bed), but other than that her room is ready. My sister has given me a TON of clothes so her drawers and closet are full already- have I mentioned I just LOVE girl clothes!

Well, we will continue to keep you updated! We are so excited to meet this little girl, and we think Andrew totally gets it all (as much as he can comprehend that is). He knows he is going to get a baby sister, and he will tell you she is in Mommy's belly and he knows he gets to go to school when the baby comes too (we have him signed up at a church 2 days a week for just a few hours). So, enjoy these pictures until you get to see her sweet face (I think her cheeks look chubby in these pictures and Andrew's cheeks never looked chubby in the womb...)

There she is...look at those cheeks! :)


This picture shows her girl part...it is hard to see, but definitely there!

Drew the Tool Man, take 2!

This was the first, Drew the Tool Man post about a year ago...


Look how my tool man has changed (Andrew that is)!

Andrew got a whole tool set for his birthday (from his Aunt Liza) and he loves it. He even got a tool belt and hard hat!



Fixing the chair...

Just being cute!

He LOVES his drill- I mean loves it!

Thanks Aunt Liza, we love our tools and can not wait until you come and visit and play with them with Andrew! See you soon!

First Ice-cream cone!

Andrew has his first ice-cream cone at my Mom's house the other night. He has had his share of icecream, but never in a cone. He enjoyed it for a little bit but when it came time to eat the cone he wanted no part in that. So we transfered it to a bowl. I will say though Andrew is more of a popsicle boy than an ice-cream boy, that is for sure!

Andrew being silly enjoy his ice-cream cone!




Grace was a ice-cream eating pro!


Matt showing Andrew how to eat it...


Andrew saying CHEESE...goof ball!


Grace saying CHEESE...




Needless to say, Andrew enjoyed the whole experience!
