Baby scare!!

Well its been a fun day!! My midwife was scheduled to come to my home for a visit today and a few hours before she was due to arrive I started spotting. So long story made short, after a rather invasive exam and all of the fun stuff that comes with that we discover that I am 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced. Here is a diagram that I found that helps you see what the heck that even means!
But taking into consideration that I have had 4 other baby's this is not to concerning.....the concern is that the last baby came early....so this one might want to as well! So I am to take it easy and be aware of my body. If anything changes at all I am to call her. This little man needs to stay in for 3 more weeks and then all will be well! Oh and I will be seriously messing with my sister's plans to have our baby's as close together as possible. And that is unheard of!
So thats my day today! I will keep you all updated.

More snow!?!?

We woke up this morning to 6-8 inches of snow. The girls were very happy to have a no school snow day! I am going crazy though!! Here are some pics of this mornings play in the snow.......



Little miss Pinky eating snow.....

Fashion show girls!

Our girls got asked to help model some flower girl dresses at a small bridal fair in town.........too cute!!! Grace would have nothing to do with it,(big surprise)and Elizabeth had to be carried and then had a moderate melt down on the floor in front of EVERYONE!!!!!!! Emily and Alannah did great! Here are a few of the pics....I didn't get to take very many because I was helping them change in the back......so sad!




Alannah was very serious through the whole thing..........she did say that she had lots of fun though???
Here are a few more

New house update.

Here are some pics of the progress we have made with our house....Gary had some time off over Christmas and went crazy! I am also starting to feel a little nesty and really want my house as done as possible before our little boy arrives! So here is our bedroom before.....
And this is what we have now!! I love it.......there is still alot of stuff in it that wont be when we are done...like the shower stall and tools ect....but it is well on its way!
This next picture is of the baby's stuff in our room....Gary and I set it up last week.....we are getting really excited! And it is really nice to have a big enough room to have this set up in it!

This is just another shot of my romantic canopy bed....ahhhhhh I love my bed!
We also painted our living room and have Gary made ledges for the tops of our half walls.......here are the before and afters!
