Good Things to Come

This is just what I needed to hear right now. I can so relate to this young family. I'm so grateful for this message!

My Little Ar-teest

Lately, Baily's favorite thing to do is draw or color.  She's gotten so good.  Robert has some artistic talent and some of my cousins and Uncle on my mom's side do too so that must be where she gets it from- definitely not from me.  Anyway- I love her art and I think it's just awesome.  We submitted the caterpillar picture to the Friend magazine and are hoping it gets printed.  She asked me how to spell "caterpillar" so she could label her drawing but apparently she ran out of room so she had to add the last letters to the first part of the word.  It's priceless;)  Enjoy!!

It's a...

Think snips and snails and puppy dog tails... It's a bouncing baby boy!  I was surprised because I was sure it was a girl but I'm so excited.  Baily took the news very well (she was holding my hand and being so sweet throughout the whole ultrasound- so tender and sweet:) and said "I wanted a sister but it's ok mom- I'll still love a new brother."  I love her.  He was very active and made it very tough for the tech to get her measurements and he's measuring big- no surprise there.  I'm excited that my posterity is following the path of my family- me, a girl, as the oldest, followed by boys.  Baily starts school this Fall so while she's growing up and away from home more Joaquin will have a little buddy to play with.  It's going to be crazy but we are all excited and very grateful that he's healthy and well.  We love him already!!

Predictions?

So my big ultrasound is a week from Wednesday.  Baily is insistent that she must have a sister or else.  Joaquin doesn't have a clue about this whole baby business.  Robert thinks a boy and I think a girl.  What do YOU think?!  (FYI- Robert was wrong about the first 2 and I was right;)

Whatcha Think?

So my hair needs help.  My dad, my usual hairstylist, is down and out due to some major back sugery so I will be setting up an appointment with a great friend who I hear happens to be a great hairstylist.  I really wanted to grow my hair out but that's not happening right now so I shall just pursue a cute short cut instead.  So out of the 3, which one's your fave for me- as in which one do you think would look best on me?
