I have just come to the conclusion I am the worst blogger! Once I get behind on posts, I get overwhelmed because it takes me so long to upload and post pics from my iphone to this blog. I really just need to find another way besides picasa because that program doesn't like me!
Well, I am just going to update on what we have been up to lately because I can't go back all the way to December! I wanted to post pics from our trip back to Indiana/Chicago but I can't get the photos to upload:-(. We had such a great trip seeing all of the family and friends. Those 11 days went by way too fast!! The highlight of our trip was definitely watching the girls play so well with all of their cousins!! Here was Sophie and Katie going down Grandma and Papa Choate's hill...
It really makes us realize how we would LOVE to be closer to home one day! The girls also had so much fun watching Disney on Ice at the United Center, even though my mom and I might have liked it more:-). It is just so much fun taking the girls to see and do more things now that they are older! I can only imagine how much fun Disney World would be!! Tony and I also now realize that we can fly anywhere with the girls! The flights we took to and from Hawaii were about 8.5 hours and the girls did AWESOME - thanks to the iPad!
We have also been doing lots of activities with the girls. Sophie has swimming lessons now on Monday's and she is doing great. It is just her and AJ, her little boyfriend. They have the sweetest instructor that really does great with the little kids.
Emma is now taking lessons at another pool because her instructor Mr. Curtis is in Afghanistan for 3 months. She has lessons on Tuesday's and Thursday's. She has been struggling a bit because the pool isn't heated like Mr. Curtis' and she keeps getting a new instructor. Emma does take a while to warm up, especially when it is a male. Her swimming is definitely improving and she is constantly impressing us with her abilities!
Emma also just started taking gymnastics last Friday. She was very nervous at first but her friend Allie, who is also taking lessons, just grabbed Emma's hand and said, "let's go Emma"! OMG, it was so sweet and Emma was totally fine after that! When she was done, she came up to me and said, "I want to do that again mommy!" This was definitely a first for Emma. I knew if she just tried it she would love it. Emma is always doing summersaults around the house and climbing up on everything. At her next lesson, I will take a video to share:-).
Okay, now onto the big news which everyone pretty much knows about. I am 13 weeks pregnant with baby #3 due August 22!
Well, this one definitely wasn't planned but believe it was meant to be. Hey, maybe this could be our Parker, doubtful, but you never know, haha!! We will find out the sex March 12 which is in just less than a month away, yikes!! I have had a great, uneventful pregnancy, thank god! I haven't been nearly as nauseous but really hungry! We haven't told the girls and will probably wait until I have a belly in hopes they will understand??
