A Night to Remember....

Yesterday was our 11 year anniversary! Wowee! I can't believe it has been that long! It seems like just yesterday I met Will in an Institute class...........What a great ride it has been. The kids wished us Happy Anniversary all day long and when Will got home from a very long days' work, we went out to dinner. We got a late start and most places had at least a 40 minute wait, which was too long for us! We ended up at Lone Star, who only had a 15 minute wait and I don't see why since the food was soooo yummy! We ate ourselves silly came home to our precious kids. The night ended with all of us piled on our bed laughing and talking. We have had so many precious conversations, speculating about what Audrey will look like, will she cry when she is born like Seth and Addie did (and boy, oh boy did they!!!!) or be like Sasha and just look around, very pleasantly? Will she have blue eyes or brown? Will she have lots of hair or not? These conversations have touched my heart in a way that I can't explain. They are old enough to be excited and that has been just so neat. I have heard each of them take turns praying that "Little Audrey will make it" and it looks like she will. Seth has been especially concerned about me and if I will be ok, which kinda surprises me. I have to work hard to get a kiss from him and if I kiss him, he absentmindedly wipes it right off. LOL. He has asked lots of questions and I have done my best to be honest and yet not scare him. :) Addie has said over and over that she can't wait to hold Little Ree Ree (she already has her nickname) and says with her little lisp: "I am going to th-queeze her so much!!". Sasha has been counting down for months and each day I have gotten the report on how many days left.

As we sat on our bed, Will and I started telling stories about cute things each of the did when they were babies and they laughed and laughed until tears came out. It was just so sweet and I sat there realizing that this was one of the last nights we will have as a family of 5. We soon will be a family of 6 and I could burst with joy. For many reasons, this night was a night I will remember for a long time. I just feel so blessed and have so much to be grateful for. :)


For all of you naughty ladies that say I look great.....lairs.....I have proof......looks like I am carrying a 10 pound baby.........oh well. :)

The beloved bouncer. My favorite baby item and the only thing all 3 of my kids have loved. I want one big enough for me that vibrates like they all do!

Sasha picked out the outfit to bring her home it. Addie found the socks and little hand mittens...

They can't hardly wait! (I am loving this cute bassinet my neighbor gave me! I have never had one and was thrilled when she gave it to me!)

The freezer is stocked with pizzas, burritos, hotdogs and other items for Will to "cook" while I am in the hospital. My suitcase is packed. The laundry is caught up. The carseat is in the van, nice and secure. Did I forget anything? Well, off I go...........
