Bluebonnets!

Bluebonnets are out and they are AMAZING!!! There are so many of them and they are so pretty! I am excited to be doing some Bluebonnet Mini Sessions within the coming weeks. I am also going to HAVE to get my boys out there together sometime.

A day at The Dallas Arboretum

Today, my Ashton and I took a little drive to The Dallas Arboretum. We had a blast together! He loved it there! He loved petting the animals at the little petting zoo, he loved looking at all the flowers...he wanted to pick them all, he loved playing in the water...it was a little warm out.

Awe, brushing the animals

Love!


Oh, that look! You just know he is debating whether or not to have some fun in the water! hehehe!

It's HOT, Momma! Just a little touch!



Loved the water and froggies!

It's a......................

BOY!!!! We are so excited! I am not going to lie, I really thought this baby was a girl. I am so excited to be a Mommy of 3 wonderful little boys!! I just know Tyler, Ashton and Baby #3 will be the best of friends. I can not wait to meet this little guy later this summer!!

The NT Test #1 and 2 (2 separate appts...one at 11 weeks and one at 16 weeks) came back with great results! Our chances of having a baby with down's syndrome or trisomy 18 are very low. I am very thankful for that!! I go back to the Dr on April 19th for a final sono and blood draw and if all is good I will only go to my regular OB for the rest of my pregnancy.

Road Trip to The Ranch!

This weekend our family took a little road trip to OK to my husband's ranch! It was a lot of fun! I am glad I decided to go. The boys had a blast!!! Tyler & Ashton both LOVED being outside, riding the 4 wheelers around, seeing the animals at the GW Zoo, and just being away for a weekend!

Having so much fun picking flowers for Mommy at the ranch!









Having so much fun as a family at The GW Animal Park
















Having so much fun riding the four wheelers. Ashton's very 1st time on a four wheeler....he LOVED it!!!

15 Weeks!

A meetup group I am in asked me if I'd be interested in doing a pregnancy progression photo shoot! Um, YES! How awesome is that?! Thank you so much again to P.S. Photography for taking this AWESOME photo! I LOVE it! I can not wait to do the next one!
Here is my belly at 15 weeks.



Here is also some FUN facts about me right now!

How far along? 15 weeks and 4 days

Maternity clothes? I can still wear some of my clothes, but they are getting snug. I've bought some maternity and they are kinda big, but so much more comfortable at the time.
Stretch marks? Nope....KNOCK ON WOOD!!!
Sleep: Sleeping great! I want and need more!!!
Best moment this week: Feeling the little flutters of our baby move!
Miss Anything? Not really! I told myself since this is the last pregnancy I am going to enjoy everything about it....even the getting big, throwing up, food aversions, and the tiredness.
Movement: Yes!
Food cravings: Chocolate!!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Chicken.
Gender: Not 100% sure yet. Hoping to find out next week!!
Labor Signs: No!!
Belly Button in or out? A little in when I'm standing. When I'm laying down it pokes out a little. Kinda weird??!!
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy unless you do something really stupid or annoying then I can be a total b!tch (just ask my husband)
Looking forward to: My doctors appointments next week to hopefully find out the gender. I'll keep you updated!!

Hawaii Vacation!

Chad and I took a nice little vacation to Hawaii in February thanks to all of Chad's hard work and dedication to his job! He won an all inclusive paid trip for him and a guest (ME!) to Hawaii. It was awesome!! His work flew us out there. Paid for our room at The Ritz Carlton. Paid for most of of food/drinks. It. was. awesome!
We had a blast! I wish I would have taken more pictures, but we were just so busy! Here are a few pictures I took.

Outside FUN!!!

Thanks to the NICE spring weather, we've been spending MUCH more time outdoors. Loving it!! As you can imagine, so are the boys! They love to get outside and just run wild. I love that both Tyler & Ashton play (sometimes) so nicely together! Chad's been fixing up the backyard a little in order to get ready for spring and summer and MAYBE another patio party!!! Wooo Hoooo! I will post some pics of that when he's all done :)
Getting a picture of the boys together smiling and happy to take a picture is almost impossible!! I wonder if I am the only one who has this issue?!?!?


Okay! I am DONE with picture taking!!! Let me go, Tyler!!!!
