Life Now

I though perhaps I would give an update on how we're doing.  We have made the transition for two to three quite easy.  Sami is such a good baby that there hasn't  been much of a transition to make! We are very lucky! She started sleeping an average of 6-7 hours per night starting at around 7 weeks or so and has continued this marvelous trend to this day, now averaging around 9 hours of sleep.  She also likes to have some pretty long naps during the day. She is a girl who loves her sleep!  She is getting better at holding her head up, and I think in a couple of weeks she will be able to hold it up without much difficulty!  She gave me her first full out giggle 2 days ago! The cutest thing ever! On top of, of course, her cute gummy smile that she is so willing to offer me!  She is also starting to be more observant to those around her, and last week was the fist time that she reached out and grabbed one of her toys, a stuffed monkey that plays "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star"! This is currently her favorite object and it can content her for quite a while! She loves watching little kids, and often "talks" to them while they entertain her!  She isn't a fussy baby, only for the basic needs.  She loves cuddling and I take advantage of it whenever I can!  Here are a few pictures on this cute little girl!

39 weeks and counting???

Yes, you've read right.  I'm celebrating my 39th week of pregnancy and STILL counting!! I started having irregular contractions on Thursday after my doctors appointment (in which I was told I was dilated to a 4 or 5 and 80% effaced) that continued into Friday...So I was thinking perhaps I will have the baby this weekend! But no, they continued to be irregular all the way until Monday...and then they stopped!! And here I am...still pregnant. So if all you good people could think good thoughts my way I would LOVE it, and perhaps this baby will be persuaded to come out into this cold and VERY windy place this week!

CARPET!!

This may not be as exciting for anyone else, but I am super stoked about the fact that Casey found some AMAZING carpet for our house and it was installed yesterday! It rocks my world! I love it.  I don't know about the rest of you, but carpet really makes my house a home, it's warm, cozy inviting and nothing is better than being able to walk barefoot in your house and feel squishy carpet under your toes!  With that said, that amazing husband of mine has done so much work on this house and it is looking better and better all the time.  I am so grateful to have married such a handiman! Soon we'll actually start getting our things organized and put away, and then I can get babies room decorated and in order! I'll probably save that for next week though!

Here is a quick update on us though: Casey is loving school, he stays there from about 7:30 to around 4 or 5 everyday studying and going to class, that way when he gets home he doesn't have to worry about school because he's done all he needs to, which is really nice for me!  I am staying busy at our place trying to do whatever I can to help  Casey get it fixed up.  **Hopefully we are on the tail end of major fixes though, because I've got some fall baking that desperately needs to be done! :)  Our no name baby is doing well, I just had a checkup last week and she and I are growing at a good rate (Maybe a little too much growing for me :)  and she is plenty active when I sit down and relax.  Someday I'll post some preggo pictures....and pictures of our house and so on...Someday when internet connectivity is faster!

Thursday Casey and I are taking off back to the West side of the state, I have a baby shower in Evanston on Saturday and Casey is going on a crazy deer hunt/hike/camping trip with his family....they're crazy but they all seem to love it, so more power to them!

I'm also starting to get antsy for fall to hit, though judging by today's weather it feels like it finally has! I'm excited to start building fires in our fireplace and being able to sit and watch it burn while reading a good book! Plus I love going to the park during the fall with all the changing colors! 

Well from us to all of you, hope you're doing well!

On The Move

Just a quick little update on us.  We pulled into Laramie last night after a 9 hour drive from Star Valley! Yes, it was a VERY LONG drive, but we only had 1 flat tire on the way luckily!  I will post some great pictures of the caravan eastward at a later date and time.  For now Casey is busily working on our trailer to get it more live-able than it is presently, and I'm helping where I can when I can.  He will start school on Wed. the 17th and I know he is very excited for that and I'm excited that he is doing something he has wanted to do for quite some time!   Next post I will get some pictures up of what's up in the Frome Home!
