Just thought I’d let you all know that Sears is having a HUGE clearance sale right now on a ton of their baby/toddler/children’s stuff–you can shop online here, or go into the store, where they’re taking an additional 40% off the clearance price. There is a lot to choose from, even in store. [...]

So since I know several of my readers are pregnant, I just thought I’d throw this out here before I pass the word around my ward– We have an extra stroller that I’m looking to give away. It is a nice stroller, made by Graco, that works with our carseat (I’m keeping the carseat, [...]

So I’ve got about 5 1/2 weeks left until my due date, and this baby is definitely still riding high. I took this picture a few minutes ago, but don’t be deceived–I definitely it makes me look smaller than I am (think it’s the dark shirt or something).

Don’t mind the pants–these are [...]

So all through the holiday season, I’d intended on making sugar cookies and decorating them with the girls… but never got around to it. Well, today, we finally did. First of all, for my mom–here is your recipe (we couldn’t find it when we tried to make them a couple weeks back at [...]

Because I sure can’t!
The other day Breanne asked me what country we live in (which sort of astounded me in the first place…), and I told her we live in the United States of America. She replied with “Oh, like in the pledge!” I said that was right, and asked her if she [...]

So this is what happens when we try to take a good picture of the girls in their new Christmas pajamas on Christmas Eve:

And a funny little video of Janey (you can hear her talking here, though it was too loud in the room for me to understand much of what she was saying).

So here are the girls’ new beds–they LOVE them, and I really like how they turned out, too. I wish there was more room in their bedroom, but for now, this will have to do.
Breanne’s bed:
and Janey’s bed (as modeled by Janey):
And to show how much Janey is like her dad:
When I [...]

This is mostly so my sister-in-law can steal these pictures, but isn’t my new niece pretty? And smiling at just 5 days old… so cute!
Meet baby Grace:

The first parts of my Christmas projects are complete! For Christmas this year, the girls are getting new beds–the baby will need the crib in a few months, so to prep, Janey will be moving up to Breanne’s toddler bed (can’t believe she’s old enough for that yet! Makes me a little bit [...]

So today I heard back from my dr’s office on my glucose test last week–turns out my glucose level is great! which is always comforting to hear (especially since they said they wouldn’t call me unless my levels were bad, otherwise they’d wait until my next appointment to discuss them). So why the call, [...]
