I have 3 little reasons of
why I can fall asleep with my eyes open.
1. sophia.
2. sienna.
3. baby in my belly.
with their powers combined….I’m exhausted. :)

I made this video last night because I wanted to remember this moment in our life…
The girls are growing up so fast.. And through my cloudy sleep deprived vision..
I don’t want to forget any of this. hehe.

I can’t wait to watch this a few years down the road and
remember how little and sweet they were! :) (Wedding material…haha)
(sound cuts off at end..I’ll go back and fix it later..no time now!..reasons stated above.)

I love their ages right now.. (2 & 4 in august)
Although sometimes, as posted above,
I feel like I’m asleep and awake at the same time..

Ben and I went on a date the other night..
and the topic of conversation was..
“I am sooo tired.”
“Me too”
“Are my eyes open or closed?”
“Let’s go home and sleep”
“we are lame”
Here’s how we have been keeping busy…
I’m sure doing a lot of the same things as you!
we go for walks and play outside a lot.
**play outside is code for wear them
out till they can barely walk to the bath tub and then put them to bed.**

We play around in the house a lot.
making as big a mess as possible….
something about a clean room that these girls are just drawn to destroy.
we run errands and play around pittsburgh..
aka we go to target and playgrounds.
Thanks for all the congratulations and love.. we are so excited.
I love sharing this pregnancy with my girls..they read to the baby bump..sing/play the “flute” to the baby bump.. cuddle with the baby bump..
play tag with the baby bump.. (it’s a very one sided game.)
We had our first ultrasound for Baby #3..
I’m 5 Weeks and 5 Days.
It’s early to do one but they ordered it to figure out a more exact due date.
November 24th! (give or take 4 days)
It was so cool..seeing the movement from the heart beat.. amazing.
so in love already. the girls love the baby too..
Sophia and Ben are convinced it’s a boy..
I keep trying to tell Sophia that it COULD be a girl..but she says no way..it’s a baby brother.
She even argues her case with random strangers.
I guess I have 9 months to work on this…..;)
PARENTING FAIL- We got the girls all ready and off to the Zoo…
only to discover the ticket booths closed because Spring Hours don’t start till end of March..
.even though IT’S OFFICIALLY SPRINGGGG.
So we took them to Chuck-E-Cheese to redeem ourselves.
Who needs vegas?! chuck-e-cheesing it up people.
check out the party aisle.. I love it all.
Sophia’s one busy mama.
Her kitchen is cleaner than mine……. don’t judge.
NAP TIME- Sometimes Sienna wakes up before Sophia does…
I think it’s her goal and life mission to wake her sister up from the minute she realizes she is awake and sophie is sleeping. little rascal.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!!
Off to help with a High School Retreat with my husband.
Please offer up some prayers for us.
the girls are coming too… so….pray….haha.
it’s going to be awesome though. really excited..and hoping the nausea lets up so I can function a bit more.. But I know it’s going to be a powerful weekend no matter what!

March 30, 2012 at 3:22 pmSoooo, I had to stop watching at the part where Sophie was in the poncho and giggling up a storm because I started to cry. Where are our tiny little babies and who are these amazingly beautiful little girls in their places? Remember when you moved in, all preggers? And when my water broke and we ran over to tell you and laugh in the middle of the street? I submitted Imani’s application for preschool this week and have just been really really emotional. Today I went through and watched a bunch of her videos. I am SO glad I took them. Moments my tired mom brain may not be able to remember the details of, but now they’re memorialized.
Thanks for sharing. At least my mascara is waterproof. ;-)
