A Fabulous Day!!

Reading a magazine...it doesn't really look like she agree's with what she is reading!
So, we went and checked out base housing today and loved it!! We will be moving in in a couple of weeks. I am so super excited! It is going to be the perfect place for the four of us. I just had to share!!!!!!

Our Day


We are having such a wonderful couple of days! Cara has been in such a great mood! I love days like this. It's just been wonderful.

Oh, the horror's!!

Oh my, what an angry face!!!!

Feeling much better...
Despite the pictures above, she really is in a fabulous mood today!

33 Weeks

So we are now 33 weeks along. I had my appointment this morning and everything is looking great. I am measuring at 31 weeks and have gained 13 pounds. My doctor did a "mini" ultrasound to check to see if Alex was head down. He totally was! I am so thankful. I don't go in until 36 weeks now and by that time, my mother will be here!! I am just so excited. Life is just moving right along!!

Thinking hard
Smiles for Momma!
"Sharing" her toys with the kitty....
Just a close up, I wish it would have turned out not fuzzy.

Cara and Alex's room





Her little Veggie Girl outfit, handed down from Elizabeth!






What a sweet looking child....

Oh how looks can be deceiving!!!


Training is so difficult. I am not sure why temper tantrums start so young!! Where do they learn it? Cara reminds me of the little poem "There was a little girl"....you know the one. When she was good she was very very good, but when she was bad she was horrid?? Oh yes, this reminds me of Cara. It isn't even that she does anything "wrong" at this point. She just throws fits over the smallest of things, whines for no reason at all, screams when she has to get dressed...or get her diaper changed. We are starting a time out corner and leaving the spanking for outright defiance (which, yes, she totally has at 11 months old!!!). This is difficult to teach too! It does help, though, that when she is in a good mood, it's fabulous! She is just so adorable. She is at the stage where she laughs at everything! She will throw her head back and just belly laugh. It's really just awesome. I know the bad times throughout the day just seem worse because I am 8 months pregnant. She is getting heavier, the baby is getting heavier...the stairs seem steeper, the bathroom seem so much farther away...you know how it is. We've got less than 8 weeks left, then I get to get through that first 6 weeks, then it will all be better! No more super duper tiredness. Well, this kind of seems like a whiney bog. Sorry about that! Life really isn't horrible, I promise! I am just tired and that makes everything seem worse! Here's looking foward to tomorrow and a brand new start to a brand new day :)
