'Big Girl' stuff

I had wanted to have Addison sleeping in a big girl bed and potty trained by October, before Baby Sisters' arrival.... one is going well.

Grandma built the big girl bed...


one happy girl!




Her room is almost done, it turned out super cute (if I do say so myself). A few more back ordered pieces of furniture to arrive and we'll post some pics.

Just thought I'd throw in a few of swim lessons, Addi did great. She DOES NOT like to go under the water though... and by 'doesn't like it' I mean she won't do it.




By the way, there's only one thing in the world worse than swimsuit shopping and that's maternity swimsuit shopping. I'm just sayin....

House Guests...

We were SO happy to have a few visitors... and let's be honest, it's nice to have a guest room instead of a couch to offer people when trying to get them to come see you!
FIRST, MIMI (Lyndon's Mom). She probably didn't envision never getting out of her pj's because we'd work all day, getting fed only sporatically, and filling my neighbors trash cans on the sly when she clicked 'buy' on her plane ticket. Thanks a million Mimi! This is Mimi (green sweater, getting her ballet on) and Addi at dance class...


NEXT, GRANDMA & GRANDPA (my parents). These two arrived with a truck full of goods for us and their sleeves rolled up. We wore them out, thank you so much guys for all you did! They got to make dump runs, paint kids' rooms, and build furniture.
Grandma, Grandpa and Addi playing with Izzy...


AND LASTLY, THE COUSINS. Don't know how I didn't get a picture of my sis, but I didn't. Everywhere we went we had four wild girls in tow and we are each pregnant so we got a lot of looks...next time we see each other there will be SIX kids~ WOW. Addi sure misses these faces: Kort, Grace & Ella


Hmm, I didn't make visiting us seem too appealing did I, with that long list of work everyone did... ah, next time it will be all pool days and pina coladas!

4th of July cuties

I'm dropping the ball on taking pics lately. I blame it on the combo of heat and a big belly...
But these girls sure were cute on the 4th!
