So even though i said i was gonna post the news when we found out, (its been like two months now) IT"S A BOY!!! yep- baby number three is a boy- yay! we're really excited about it and it seems just right for our family. so our due date is May 5th. (although i'm kinda hoping we can fit it in in the end of April... we'll see what we can do about that.) we haven't decide on any names yet, mostly because i am so picky about boy names. They're so much harder to pick. but yeh- ( This is me about a week before livia was born, {9 full months along} but i pretty much am just an early bloomer! this is basically what i look like any time after 6 months.) yeh it looks like that belly is strapped on but thats real! Sorry- What a hideous picture!! but its basically the only one i have of me pregnant to accompany this post... i'll have to remedy that. maybe get a more "flat"tering angle. and make a different face!

Little ice princess

Liza did pretty good skating this time she hasn't skated at all this winter until yesterday and she was way less afraid and even wanted to let go of daddy's hand by the end. matt's so good to spend time with her and is so patient with her pace, our girls are lucky to have him for their daddy.

The Girls LOVE to dress up in anything that is out of the ordinary- here are a few pictures from the last couple weeks of some of their get-ups...

Livie's costume is "Uniqua" from the backyardagains,

they sure know how to pose!

I love these little flowery high heels the girls wear around... The hat liv is wearing has the John Deere logo on it. The girls both have one (they were a give-away from something a year or so ago) and Liza was wearing hers a couple weeks ago and she said to me as she pointed to her hat, "this reindeer keeps the sun out of your eyes."

oh- notice the panies on the outside of livies clothes again... hmmm.

All Moved In

Yay! so we finally moved into our new house on the 23rd of January! It's so cool! we have still got a few projects left to finish up and a bunch of boxes left to unpack but we're in! Unpacking all this stuff makes me wonder where it all fit in our other (much) smaller house. kinda baffling actually. its so nice to have a place to put things when you're putting them away!

From family room into kitchen Master Bath Vanity (complete with odds and ends strewn around to prove that yes we are living here... okay i guess i could have put things away, but whatever.) we still need to do the tile back splash in here. cool little glass and metalic tiles... i love them

this one gives a little better idea of the space in here. notice liv has panties on the outside of her zippy jammies... very super hero.

this is how far we've gotten of this project- we still have to put up a mantle and build the drawers for under the hearth. but it'll look great when it's finished!

Here is my poor neglected living room... i obviously haven't hung up many pictures yet...

This is what our Christmas Morning looked like before the girls woke up. Liza asked Santa for a playhouse this year, and Liv always just copies her no matter what she says so Santa brought them a house!after we cleaned up a bit...

we went to my mom's house and we played rockband for several hours... Matt kicked rear as the vocalist for our band! Here he is- hittin the high notes like a pro! Facial expressions are always a plus!
