This brought tears to my eyes...

I was reading an email that my mom sent me just now and I actually sat here and cried...I immediately copied the quote that brought me to tears to post it on my blog.
Here it is:

Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished every moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle..

Even though pregnancy is so hard on me..and I am soooo ready for it to be over, this is so true!

I love both of my boys so much and I am so blessed that I have been able to carry both of them inside me as they grow!

Ryan's Elmo Birthday Party

Here are a few pictures from Ryan's birthday party lastnight! Thanks to everyone who was there for spending Ryan's birthday with us and for all of the great gifts! Thanks to Aunt Michelle and Uncle Kevin for letting us have the party at their house! Ryan had a lot of fun swimming!

Happy Birthday Ryan!!!!!!!

Well...my baby turns 2 today.... :( He is turning into my big boy..especially since he is going to be a big brother soon.
We have a busy day today getting ready for our ELMO PARTY tonight!!!!

These are a few pictures of Ryan this morning when I went to get him out of bed.

We Miss You Daddy!

Nick has been gone on his fishing trip since Thursday morning and Ryan and I are missing him!
Luckily Ryan has been a pretty good boy for me..we've been staying pretty busy.

Daddy will be back tomorrow and we are excited to see him!

We love you daddy! :) You are not going to believe how swollen my feet have gotten since you have been gone...It's pretty cute!

The Swelling Has Begun...

My poor feet! They have started to swell just like they did when I was pregnant with Ryan...
I have 7 weeks until my due date..hopefully they won't get too bad!

Waiting on Baby Reece...

In our effort to save some money, Nick and I decided to have our own Maternity photo shoot. We went to Ben Geren yesterday afternoon and took lots of pictures. I have posted only a few and I am having the rest printed to put in an album.

I would say that Nick did a great job at being our photographer!!! Especially considering the extremely white model he had to work with! Ryan was a very good subject for the pictures..but mommy has looked better before...

We are going to take some more sometime at our house also, so I will post them when I get them!

Ultrasound Pictures

I had my 32 week ultrasound this morning!!

We are still having a boy! He is 5 lbs. 1 oz. right now and very active!
She told us not to worry about the dark spot that looks like a hole on his head..it's not a hole!! :)
He is already head down, and in the exact position that Ryan was at this point! She told us that he has long legs (just like she said with Ryan)...Surprise!! I wouldn't expect him not to with Nick and me!! She also said he is taking up all of the space he possibly can..his legs were stretched out completely straight at one point! LOL! No wonder I am so uncomfortable....

After seeing him, I am even more ready than I was for him to be here! I can't wait to see what he really looks like and I really hope that he is a good baby...

We got some really good pictures, so I have posted just a few of them...
