It is quite amazing how when the promise of playing outside has been made..... toys pick themselves up, smiles are at the ready, shoes fetch themselves, and ears are ready to listen! Keaton spent a good couple hours playing outside this afternoon while Sissy was quite content to sit at the window and watch him play.

18 weeks and counting
On the baby front.....
This photo was actually taken a week ago today but I really haven't changed a bit since then! We are 18 and a half weeks and I am still not showing to the outside world. I can BARELY tell that I am just starting to show! I can just feel a bit of a difference rather than see it. All of my regular clothes still fit just fine with room to spare which has been nice.
I have been able to feel the baby move for about a week and a half now and Benji has been able to feel it a couple times also. I still don't notice it as I go through my day unless I am really paying attention and staying still! It is such a comfort though to be able to feel the little munchkin kicking around. We have our 20 week ultrasound in a week and a half which seems hard to believe. I think it seems weird simply because I don't really feel like I am very pregnant yet. It will be very odd going to my 20 week ultrasound.... half way point..... and not really showing at all. Don't know where this baby hides but I evidently take after my mom. She didn't get very big at all with any of us so she isn't the slightest bit shocked. I have some photos of her on her due date with me that I will try to get scanned in sometime here soon. On a very exciting note.... I haven't been sick much at all anymore. I was just a little bit after our Portland trip but other than that I have been WAY better.

Finally Spring Maybe
This seems to be yet another Tiana post..... our boy is very camera shy at the moment! It has been finally nice enough these past few days to enjoy some time outside. This is Tiana's first encounter with the grass. Keaton hated the feel of it and really didn't play outside much until he walked. Tiana on the other hand doesn't seem to care and just loves being outside!

Climbing!
Now that Tiana is crawling she has also discovered that she can pull herself up on things. She hasn't quite figured out that she can do this everywhere yet. She does love to play with this toy though on her knees or standing. She dances along to the music.
Tiana also learned how to do "SO BIG" and claps for herself afterward!

President's Day Weekend
Mommy went with her sister-in-laws on a girls weekend to Portland over President's Day weekend. Daddy stayed home with BOTH of the kids and we all had fun! We spent all last week trying to catch up around here and recover from a fun weekend as well as spend some time with Nana and Papa before they headed off to Aruba! Here are some photos of the kids' weekend with Daddy.
After dinner Keaton bonked his head so the cure-all for that is Chocolate! This was Sissy's first encounter with this COLD version and well..... you be the judge whether it was a hit or not!

All around the house
Well, the good news around this household is that the Mommy has had a full week without getting sick!!!! Hopefully that means I am over the morning sickness part of the pregnancy. However that also means that I have LOTS of catching up to do around here since I haven't done much of anything for the last 4 months. Not only that but I am still trying to nap everyday which cuts my time without kids (during their naps) down to none which makes it a tad hard to get much done with another mobile child now!
Keaton found some sunglasses in his closet and of course the only way I could persuade him to take a photo was if he could make a funny face.

9 Months
Our little girl is getting so big! She had her 9 month appointment this past week and she is 30 1/2 inches long which is 99.75% and 23 lbs 3 oz which is 97%! This past month we have been SO proud of her. She has really started to come out of her little shell! She has done wonderful in groups and will even smile at everyone which is quite the accomplishment for her. She has perfected the army crawl and speeds around the house after Keaton and Mommy during the day. She will crawl for a few feet at a time but then decide that the army crawl is way faster. When she is racing Keaton for toys she can't waste any time!
Her little temper has developed a little bit this past month too! Although her temper is quite mild. We have just noticed her trying to keep her brother in line. She will let out quite the little squeal when he does something that doesn't go over well with her. She gets quite the reaction too because Keaton hates to upset her for ANY reason!
Her hair has started to really grow. It is filling in and getting some length. It is getting long enough now that we can tell that it has quite a bit of curl in it. After she gets out of the bath she has ringlets all around her neck! So cute!
Enjoy the few photos!

Wonderfully Refreshing Weekend
We ended our week last week with cuddle time with two ADORABLE little boys!

I am mostly Thankful for... Great-grandparents who are so in love with each other and God.
This past weekend we were also thankful for Grandparents who were willing to get on the floor to play with trains and to encourage a little girl to crawl.
