Enjoying ourselves!
We LOVED having our Dad home to hang out! We spent lots of time playing, hanging out at the Park, and watching movies. I really hated to see him go back, but it had to happen eventually!

Home Sweet Home!
We arrived home yesterday about 12:30 pm.
It's nice to be in the comforts of our home!
Everyone is Fantastic and we are LOVING the time we get to have Daddy home to just hang out with us! The nights are long for now, but that's to be expected :)

Our Little Lady!
Little Miss LoaLin came into the world, in.style. !
Tuesday night (4/13/10) I began feeling contractions around 10:30 PM, by 11:15 I decided it was serious and we were quickly on the road to the hospital! - the 20 min trip was grueling, I won't lie!
We made it, 11:45
I got checked, the nurse said, "um, you're at a 9 - we'll call your doctor"
Nurse returned, "Were you planning on an epidural"
Me, "No, but I wouldn't mind some pain killer in my IV" ( I didn't have an Epidural with Laexin and thought the second would be easier so I might as well go without)
Me, "Can I not push"
Nurse leaving the room, "She's feeling the need to push"
Suddenly a rush of nurses - at least 5 of them, rolling in the cart for doc., the cart for baby and all the necessities --This is serious!
Nurse, in the hall, "There's a midwife in the hospital, see if she can come down"
Midwife arrives quickly, I push through three contractions and our "princess" arrives at straight up midnight! (Too bad it wasn't New Years :)
5 Min. later, my Doc. walks in, "Sorry I missed the excitement!"
Side Note: the pain meds never came to be - there was no time for anything - I never even got an IV in!
All in all - it was Awesome - painful, uncomfortable, NOT fun but, it was super exciting and I couldn't be happier with how quickly everything happened! I do know one thing - I better LIVE at the Hospital with the next one --I don't even want the chance of having a child in.the.car :)
She's an Angel!

My Boys!
NO Folks, the baby hasn't arrived yet! --Her OFFICIAL Due Date is this coming Saturday the 17th, and if she's anything like her Brother she'll be coming Right.On.Time. I think I'm finally ready so she can arrive any day now - in fact secretly I'm hoping not to make it to my Friday appointment :)
Anyway--Just some fun pictures of my Boys! LeGrand was out tending to the Garden and I looked out to see this sight - so CUTE!
On Saturday Laex got invited to his first "official" Birthday Party --of course we couldn't miss it, especially because it was a "Spongebob" party at the one and only CHUCK-E-CHEESE. The bowling is his favorite!

Cute-ness
If this little lady would arrive, I might get over my obsession to continue making things for her :) --She already has an outfit a day (at least until she's 16 -lol) --along with a hair bow & blanket to match each. Man, I have a problem (either that, or I just am feeling the lack of time I'll have on my hands once she is here!)
Just a few things I've whipped up in the last couple of days --and SUPER thanks to my Fabulous friend Jen for helping put together the darling Hair accessories! :)
{before and afters of some re-purposes I did}

Easter!
LeGrand had to work half a day on Easter so Laex and I just hung out int he morning and while he was taking his nap the Easter Bunny came and hid his Goodies and Eggs! --He had a blast finding them all! Then...we colored eggs - of course Laex LOVED it!

Spring Time ??
I LOVE Spring! But...It's APRIL 6th and I'm kinda tired to waking up to WHITE STUFF (aka S.N.O.W) on the Ground (dang Global WARMING - lol) --
I guess there is one plus, we got half of the garden planted about two weeks ago --yep, the peas, turnips, beets and radishes are LOVE.ING the moisture :)
I, on the other hand, am aching to go out and enjoy some sunshine - I'm done hibernating!

Hunting EGGS and TREASURE!
Laex, Grammie, Papa, Aunt Kenzie and I went Egg hunting {unfortunately, LeGrand was working :( } --it was cold, but so.much.fun and Laex made a hauling :)
We finished off the visit from the family with a trip to the Water Moon --we recently discovered this place with Trev and Ramey and I think it's become Trev's favorite --he LOVES Chinese food and Sushi --Laex got a hold of the camera and took some pictures for us :)
After returning home, Laex and I took a nap while LeGrand had to try out his new toy --A Metal Detector -- He LOVES hunting treasures! He found his first treasure right in our back yard - A DIME - LOL, what a hoot! He made me take a picture of his first find with his new detector!

SurPRISE!
I Love, LOVE surprises! BUT...in 7 years of marriage I've never been able to pull one off for LeGrand.
He turned the BIG THREE-O on March 31st, and since I had nothing else going on the past month or so {LOL} - I decided a milestone like that isn't complete without a SURPRISE PARTY! The Party happened Friday night and I'm sad to say it still wasn't a surprise {turns out one of the invites got returned just two days prior -so he knew something was up, though he didn't know when it would happen} - OH WELL - at least I didn't go into labor or something ALTHOUGH that would've been a good SURPRISE :).
We still had a great time with all of LeGrand's favorite foods, family and friends!
