Well a lot of you know this, but I haven't officially announced it on the blog. Joshua and I are expecting our third bundle of joy......yes I am pregnant!
Yesterday I got an ultrasound to find out a due date. I am due July 7th 2009. Here are some pictures of our little baby.
They aren't the best pictures, since I am only 11 weeks along....but it was so great to see this little baby, and she moved around the whole time. I have been pretty sick lately, and you kind of forget that it is because you are growing a baby inside of you......it is all worth it when you see that little baby!
In the picture below you can't see the babies head, she had it curled to the side. This was my first 4D ultrasound (I didn't even know that I was going to have one!) It was really neat!
Some of you might be wondering....."Are you guys crazy!" (since we have a 2 year old and a 1 year old!). Honestly this baby was the biggest surprise of our life. I have been really nervous about having THREE babies, but I know everything will be amazing. Farrah and Adra just adore each other, and I know they will adore this new baby as well. Farrah just loves babies, and whenever we get to see baby Piper, she doesn't want to leave her side. Adra will honestly probably be a little jealous....she is such a mommy's girl, but I know she will be crazy about the baby too.
Well that is our big news.....I am just hoping this morning sickness will be over in a week.....I am dying!!!!
Janine is pregnant too, and is due two days after me.....we have been exchanging nausea remedies! Thanks for your advice Janine....it is so nice having someone to talk to who is in the same boat you are in!

Mexico/Indiana
Last week Joshua had to go back to Mexico, so the girls and I went to Indiana.
Farrah found Nona''s reading glasses and she decided she needed to wear them to do her "homework".
We got to go to Papi's Christmas party at work, and the girls got to sit on Santa's lap. They served 2 inch pork chops! Farrah asked Santa for a Sleeping Beauty doll and he gave her one! She was so excited. Adra got a movie and a Pooh Bear.
Adra loved up on all the boys - she is such a flirt!
Farrah's face when Santa came in!
The girls drinking hot chocolate bottles.
Updates:
I forgot to mention before, I have finally weaned Adra! It was kind of by accident - Thanksgiving was very busy and I didn't nurse her the whole day, so I decided to wean her. She did really well, considering we was addicted to nursing!
Yesterday Joshua and I were giving Farrah the thumbs up and she looked at us and smiled and tried to give us a thumbs up but ended up flipping us off.....it was so funny.
Here is a cute video of Adra taken a couple weeks ago. She was so tired, but also very hungry!

Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving was held at my parents this year. The crowd included us; my parents; Jan, Jay and Paul; Nola; Laurel, Brandon and their kids; Brandon's parents; Stacy and Carl and their girls. We had so much fun, and our girls had a ball playing with all the kids! Including our two girls there were 9 kids! Farrah had the most fun playing with Ava, and Nadia (they are all very close in age). Those girls played "house" Ava was the mom, Nadia was the big sister, and Farrah was the little sister. They walked around the house holding hands, taking naps, reading books, going to the doctor.....it was so sweet.....unfortunately I didn't get any video of them :(
Here is our yummy meal!
The little girl table - Mia, Nadia, Livy, and Farrah
Farrah enjoying the whipped cream!
Adra dug right in to the pie!
My mom bought this Farrah sized snowman, and Farrah of course loves to play with it, and she showed it to all the girls. We got some pictures of the girls with it.....it was a struggle to get them all to look at us.
I love this picture - Adra kept pulling the buttons on Mia's shirt.
Now attack the snowman!
Farrah got to play outside for a little bit
Spongebob time!
Words cannot express how cute this picture is! Adra just adores Kerrin.
On Friday we went to Greenville to celebrate with Josh's family. I am not sure why but I didn't take any pictures! We had a lot of fun visiting though. The girls unfortunately did not sleep at all Friday night, making me one grumpy mom the next day. Saturday after lunch we headed home. Overall it was a great break - it just went by too fast!
