Great Grandma Avera Williams

It is sad to say that Allie's Great Grandma Williams Passed away this last week at the age of 96. She was the sweetest lady ever! As I was deciding on a name for Allie I kept telling Chris that I wanted her to have a middle name but he is against any girl having a middle name just cause once she is married she will take on a new name. I finally convinced him to let her have one and as I was deciding what it should be I was thinking of all the grand children and great grandchildren that grandma had. I realize that quite a bit of them were named after Christopher's grandfather and none were named after his grandma. So I decided that we would name her Allie Avera Williams (if we had a girl) I'm so glad that we did!!! Great Grandma was so thrilled to have a great grandchild named after her that she would always introduce her as "Allie Avera" it was so cute. I remember the next day in the hospital after allie was born she was the very first one there to hold Allie. She was a kind and loving lady she was always looking after all of us and we will miss her very much!

5 More Days

Ok Finally I am down to the last of this pregnancy!! In 5 More days we will have a precious little boy in our home. I am looking forward to holding him and having time away from work. I also can't wait til I can breath again lol.

Halloween

As many of you know I LOVE HALLOWEEN! I can not wait to start seeing the decorations come out and get my kids all ready to go trick or treating. I went to the store yesterday and they had pumpkins out by the door and I was so tempted to get some to put on my porch but I figured they might spoil by the time halloween gets here so I better wait. Allie has learned what pumpkins are and was excited to see them yesterday. Maybe she will grow to have her moms love for this season.

Lagoon

We went to Lagoon on Friday for our summer party at work. Allie enjoyed the rides so much that she would throw a tantrum and lay on the ground every time she had to get off the rides or wait in line for a new ride. It was fun to see how excited she was and watch her face light up when the rides did something unexpected. I was trying to decide if I wanted to even attempt going up there and walking around for hours, but after seeing her enjoy herself that much I'm glad that I went!

Counting The Days!

So I'm counting down the days til we add our newest member to the family, around 17 days to go. The closer it gets the happier I am that this pregnancy will be over and we will have another special spirit in our home. At the same time, the closer it gets the more nervous I get at the thoughts of needles and pain and having to remember how to take care of a new born. I know that it will all come back to me and I will do a good job. I'm looking forward to having a little baby to hold and snuggle. I haven't been able to do that for a while. Allie has become so independant that the thought of sitting still to snuggle with mom probably never even crosses her mind oh to have that kind of energy lol.

Lack of Creativity

I haven't been very good at getting new posts on my blog. I feel that it is out of lack of creativity and a borring life lately. I have just been working and taking care of Allie at nights while Chris has been working. I will try harder to get more pictures and things on here.

Watching "T"

We have a routine every night where Allie watches her "Carntoons" and after "Cues Cues" (Blues Clues) is over I will ask her where her blanket is and she understands that it means it is time to go night night. Last night I asked her where her blanket was and she shook her head at me and informed me " I watching T, I watching T"

We have a blog!
