Happy Birthday Messages

A few months ago Audra received a video for her birthday from two very sweet boys.  (Thank you, Trey and Roman!!)  Ever since then, mostly due to watching the video over 20 times, Audra enjoys making her own video's for other people's birthdays.  Here's video's that she made for her cousin, Jake, and her Great Uncle Danny.

Inexpensive Entertainments

We have bought many toys for Audra over the last 2 years... and many other generous family/friends have done the same.  But it's the cheap toys (little animal figurines, buttons, bells and pipe cleaners!) that have held her attention a lot in the recent months.  Proof that expensive toys are not needed!

Preparing for Baby #2

We got out Audra's old infant carseat this past week, and our little QA girl checked to make sure it was safe for her and her baby doll.  Now we just need the real baby to fill that spot!

New Vehicle

After 7 months of knowing we are going to need a bigger vehicle, we finally made the decision to get rid of the Rav4 (a vehicle I've had for the past 7 1/2 years!) and purchase a Ford Explorer.  We're excited about our new ride!  And Audra is excited about it, too.  The first time she saw it she said, "ohhh... shiny!"  Now we have plenty of room for 2 carseats and Sophie.

36 Weeks

Comments I've received:

"Wow... any day now, right?"  (I actually started getting comments like this in January.  Then people give me wide-eyed stares when I tell them that the baby isn't due until April 7th!)

"Are you sure there's only 1 baby in there?"  (Answer: YES)

"You know, some babies get so big that they can't come out."  (Well, I've never heard of someone being permanently pregnant... so one way or another this baby is going to come out!  Besides, I have a short torso and I know Audra looked like she was a big baby when she was inside me, too.  I'm not worried.)


I've got 4 weeks until my due date, but if the baby wants to come a little early, that's fine with me!
