Pics For Grandma...

All Grandma Boyce wanted for her birthday was a picture of the girls in their sweaters she got them from Canada. It was kind of a last minute thing, and Ashley and I thought it wouldn't be that hard to just do it ourselves. These little girls are so active so getting them to sit still was near impossible. One would be sitting just fine and the other would get up. Not to mention that the sweaters are made of wool so they were super itchy and bulky, but in the end I was able to get a few...and I think they turned out pretty good if I do say so myself!!

The Big 5-0...

I've been having a lot of computer problems lately so I'm super late at posting this. But a while back we celebrated my dad's 50th bday. We through him a surprise party...and he was pretty surprised. It was so fun to have all of our family there to help celebrate. Happy birthday dad...we love you!!

 

 

17 Weeks...

Yes the difference between my post title and picture is correct...it's not a mistake. Ha ha it just proves how terrible I am at blogging. I took my picture when I was 15 weeks (p.s. that picture is of an apple), but now (as of Sunday) I'll be 17 weeks. I seriously can't believe how fast time is going by. I thought my pregnancy with Avrey went fast, but this one seems to be going by even faster. I think that is due to chasing a 21 month old around all day. And that would also explain why there would be times I would forget that I was pregnant, but now that I'm showing it's becoming more real to me. I'm feeling really good...I'm over the morning sickness, and I seem to be over the whole headache stage. I'm now starting to get heartburn (not as much as I did with Avrey), and I'll randomly get a pinched nerve in my back which makes it hard to stand some times. I also felt the little one for the first time the other day (10/11/12)...which was kind of weird at first because with Avrey I didn't feel her till about 20 weeks. Every once in a while I'll feel these little "flutters" and I think it's just as cool this time as I did with Avrey.

I had my doctors appointment on Tuesday and was pretty impressed with myself because at the last minute Dallas told me he couldn't make it and I had to get my blood drawn. But I did it and didn't even pass out. I got to hear the little peanuts heart beat and the doctor says everything sounds good. I'm pretty excited for my next appointment because we get to find out whether we're having a boy or girl. It's kind of weird because with Avrey I thought for sure she was a boy, but with this one I really have no idea. All of the Boyce's seem to think it's a boy, but Dallas and I are kind of leaning towards thinking it's a girl. So we'll just have to see and I'm sure if time keeps going this fast my appointment will be here before we know it.

1st Hair Cut...

 I finally brought myself to take Avrey for her first hair cut a while back (9/8/12). It was nothing too crazy just a little trim to clean it up and get it under control. At first she wasn't too sure about what was going on, but my hair stylist was really good with her. She gave her a sucker and a comb to hold on to and she was fine after that. I meant to save some hair for her baby book, but walked out and totally forgot about it.

Splash Pad...

 Over the Labor Day weekend we took the girls to the Splash Pad by our house. I couldn't help myself and ended up taking a ton of pictures, but who could blame me...these little girls are just too cute. Daisy LOVED it and Avrey not so much. She loved playing in the puddle, but once it turned on she couldn't get away fast enough.

Mini Bowl 2011...

 I was looking through old pictures the other day and ran across my brother's mini bowl game. After thinking about it I realized I never posted about it. It was my brother's last year of little league football and his team made it all the way to the Mini Bowl. They didn't end up winning, but his team played really good. I'm so proud of him and loved being able to cheer him on.

10 Weeks...

As of Sunday (August 26th) I'm 10 weeks along, so I'm a little behind at posting. I thought I was over the whole morning sickness, but Monday told me otherwise. As I was getting ready to go to work I started to blacked out and felt like I needed to throw up. I was so sick that I ended up staying home so I could rest. The morning sickness is new to me since I wasn't sick at all with Avrey, but I'm hoping it will be over soon. I've also began getting headaches, but other than those 2 things I'm doing pretty good. You can definitely tell in this picture that I'm starting to show. So far I've been craving fresh fruit and corn dogs. I have a doctor's appointment coming up on Thursday and I'm looking forward to it. Hopefully he'll be able to hear the little peanuts heartbeat again!!
