Time for a quick update :)



It's been about a 2 weeks, I think. Who knows, I think I've completely lost track of time.


We had such a nice Mother's Day, we went to a beach park and hung out, came home and had a nice long nap (Logan and I) and then woke up and the whole family went to go check out the lava. It was a pretty eventful day and of course wore me out. We didn't get to see much lava because they had blocked it off and we figured that it was best if we didn't break any rules that included keeping us all safe. We did see tiny specks of it on the mountainside...it was beautiful. I can't wait to get pictures of it to post.

Here are a few pictures of the past week(s?) Mother's day and some bathtime pictures! As you can tell...he loves the water.

Cupcake making for Mana

First of all, let me say Happy 2nd Birthday to my niece Sydney!!!
And Happy 1st Birthday to my nephew Mana!!!

For Mana's birthday, Logan and I decided to make him some cupcakes :)

I must say that I'm pretty impressed with the patience that Logan had dealing with frosting and sprinkles...he even had a taste of the frosting, but continued to put it on the cupcakes no problem.

As usual, a few pictures:
(Sorry about the size, it wont let me fix it for some reason)

Hiccups, Finals, and Whales

Yesterday was the start of my last week in my current classes aka finals week. Of course I've procrastinated to the point where I now I have about 5 days left to finish two discussion topics, and 2 finals. I guess it's just easier for me to work under extreme pressure. Logan is so incredibly patient with me during these kinds of weeks. He sits down and watches a movie or destroys the room ever so quietly. Either way, he's entertained and I'm able to study (for a reasonable amount of time anyway).



On top of studying, running around after Logan, and trying to breathe through braxton hicks contractions, I've also managed to start sewing. My first project was a throw for Logan, I wanted something that he would love to sleep with and have a theme that he would enjoy. The front is made of tropical fish and the back of sea foam green flannel...needless to say, I have a hard time not stealing it, it came out to be the perfect size, and it's SO comfy. With the extra flannel I had laying around I made a whale stuffed animal, Logan is pretty obsessed with them thanks to his aunt Brittany. I think he prefers the "real" whale look as opposed to the stuffed animal look though.


I have one of my last ultrasound appointments for Lucas on the 10th so I'm pretty excited about that. It's still pretty weird thinking about how far along I am and how little of time I've had to comprehend the fact that I'm pregnant. He definitely makes his presence known though, queue hiccups, kicks, and rolls. I find myself wondering constantly, not what he is going to look like, but how he's going to act. I have a feeling that I'm going to have a loud baby on my hands this time around.

Starting Over

I had a blog before, but for some reason it's managed to disappear on me. No big deal, I'll just start fresh!

April was an eventful month full of all kinds of fun.

First being Easter! Logan was a little too young to fully enjoy Easter last year, he did get to color eggs but didn't quite grasp it like he did this year. Not only did we color real eggs, we made some from paper mache as well. He loved every messy part of it!


I must say, he's quite a creative little boy. He loves drawing pictures for people. We made a few Easter cards and had to put his finishing touches to them. Luckily, these masterpieces haven't made their way to anything but paper (with the occasional accidents). He knows to ask for paper when he wants to draw, so that's always nice ;)


As far as Lucas goes, he's stronger than Logan was and beats me up constantly. I swear I'm going to have a fractured rib because of him! But along with strong, he's very healthy. I am very excited, but very very nervous for him to be here. The days are getting shorter and I feel like I have so much to do before he's born. Luckily I have amazing support from my family here, I honestly don't know what I would do without them. This pregnancy has been fairly easy, no sickness just sore joints. I am very very thankful for that!
