New plates

Well I think that it is official that we are New Yorkers. We turned in our Texas Driver's, License Plates, and Registration and Inspection stickers. We are a little sad (Sniff sniff). But we still bleed Burnt Orange.

What am I?

This video is a reenactment of what happened a little while ago. Chad and I have been contemplating opening the envelope for a while. Everyday we would pick it up, look at it, talk about the pros and cons of opening it, and then decide not to. We have been leaving it out on the end table, where we thought it was safe. Well, it wasn't. To entertain Caelyn, I let her open the junk mail, play with it and then I throw it away. Well, I guess Caelyn thought the envelope was junk mail and one night decided to open it. It was half open before we realized what she had done. So I guess Caelyn got tired of waiting and decided to open the envelope herself.

To view, hit the play arrow and then after it loads, hit the small arrow to the right.

Planting Sunflowers

Luchia gave Caelyn a sunflower to remind us of the warm weather that Texas has right now. Caelyn and I prepared the soil and got ready to plant the seeds. Of course Caelyn had to sample the soil to make sure it was nutritious.

Ultrasound

We took Caelyn to the ultrasound so she could see her future brother or sister. Of course she was more interested in running around and playing with the machines in the room. At one point she wanted to lay next to me on the table, so she got ultrasound goo all over her. She saw what the sex of the baby is but she is pretty tight lipped. After I got off the table she had to work the controls and lay up on table and pretend it was her turn.

Bowling party

Caelyn was invited to her cousin Luchia's birthday party. It was a bowling party and we did not know what to expect because Caelyn would probably be one of the youngest children and would not be able to bowl. But she did and she had a really good time.

Snow days

We did not have too may opportunities to play in or take too many pictures in the snow this year, but we will have a lot more next year.

It is official...

No we don't know the sex of the baby :). Caelyn has finally told us she wants a sister and not a brother.:):)

Me at 5 months

Doctors appointment

We met our new doctor today. We will go back for an ultrasound next week so maybe we will find out the sex of the baby :):) Caelyn wanted to explore every inch of the office, especially the trash and bio hazardous chemicals box. I had a pelvic exam and I think Caelyn was both inquisitive and maybe a little scared for me all at the same time. She kept telling the doctor, "Me turn". So she got some rubber gloves and a paper drape. She even gave me an exam when we got home. Caelyn also thought the stirrup covers were oven mitts :):). Chad and I got a kick out of that.

A day at the musuem

Caelyn got to spend some time with her cousin, Luchia, at the museum. They had a good time looking at the exhibits and riding the carousel. Of course Caelyn was Caelyn and often ran around the museum being silly. Caleyn followed Luchia everywhere she went :):) Caelyn wanted to ride the carousel over and over. Mommy rode it once, but started to get a little too dizzy so Caelyn got to ride the different ponies with Daddy.

Tutu

Caelyn and I have to find ways to occupy our time together during the day. Caelyn loves to dress up in her tutu's. She has three of them and is constantly switching them out. She has it all the tiara, shoes with feathers, butterfly wings, and several different wands to choose from. At times, she insists that I put one on too and even gets mad that they will not fit over my stomach.
