The Number is 2.

Yesterday I had a sonogram to check out the size of our little Lily. Little..she is not. She is already estimated to weigh 7 lbs 3 oz. I'm still 3 1/2 weeks away from my due date. Dr. Spooner said that if I went 40 weeks, then I would be looking at a 9 plus pounder. Given my last delivery, that would be too big for me. Therefore, we set an induction date for the 5th or 6th (depending on availability in the hospital). 

Then she checked to see if I am dilated. I was expecting to hear that I wouldn't be anything yet, but hoping for maybe a 1/2 centimeter. Nope.........2. I'm dilated to a 2! That is what I was when I went into the hospital with Bella. Dr. Spooner said that I would hopefully make it to my appointment next week, but probably not much after that. Needless to say, Lily is on her way and we can't wait!

Funny Sayings from Isabella

All the time Bella is saying the funniest things. We have no idea where most of them come from, but here are a few we think are hysterical. (Granted...they are also better when said in the moment)

Funny #1: We picked Gracie up from the vet. She had to have surgery on her ear. She was wearing a big white plastic collar around her neck. When she jumped in the backseat with Bella this is what she said, " Gracie, you look like Snow White!" 

Funny #2: Isabella likes to put bubbles, icing, or anything on her upper lip and call it her mustache. However, it comes out more like this, " Look at my mush-mash!" 

Funny #3: The other day we were out running errands. After leaving the mall, which the girl loves, we drove by an Applebee's. Isabella pointed out the window and said, "Mommy, let's go to the apple store!" (She has never been there in her life.)

Funny #4: Often times Bella says to us, " You guys crack me up!" (yes, she is only 2 1/2)

Happy Valentine's Day


To celebrate Valentine's Day Greg, Bella, and I had a date on Friday night. We went to TGIF and had dinner. We did a little window shopping at Old Navy, and bought some books at Barnes & Noble. It was a really fun night. On Saturday, I made dinner, and Greg and Bella made some chocolate covered strawberries. Yum! We had dinner by candlelight, which Isabella thought was very cool.



(Look at how long her hair is!)
