Drum roll please........

It's a..............GIRL!!!!!
We found out yesterday that we are having a healthy baby girl who is even measuring a little bigger but due date is the same. Sorry. No ultrasound pics. The cd is not cooperating. I thought I might as well announce it and we'll try to add pics later. We are both super excited. I can't wait to find cute girly stuff to buy. Now there will be 4 little girl cousins all the same age coming within months of each other on my side! YES!

The Last Three Crafts and Some Birds

So I'm pretty much the slowest blogger ever right now. I just have a couple of updates 'cause Chad is gone and has all the other pictures on his camera with him. More is to come. Just thought I would share some of the last few months crafts.
This craft was done just this week. I really like it more than I thought I would.
And then the spring blocks were done a couple of months ago. If you want to see close ups you can go to http://www.gettinghercrafton.blogspot.com/.
This last one I did about 3 months ago. It's a scrapbooked picture frame that I gave to my Mom for Mother's Day. This is one of the last pictures taken of my Mom and Dad and it's probably the best one my Dad ever took. If you've ever seen our family pictures my Dad either has a goofy face on (not on purpose sometimes) or his eyes were closed. Ha. What a goofball! Ahh I miss him.

And this last part is for Carter since he is such a nature lover. You can't really tell that well but there are four, yes four baby birds in a nest on our front porch. I can peak through the little windows through our door and they move around and open their mouths. As soon as I turn the lock they hunch down and hide. Sadly for this group of birds, this is the last year I will let them bum off of us. They need to start paying some rent or at least clean up after themselves. There is seriously a ton of bird poop everyday from them. I've sprayed it off the last two days because I didn't really notice until my visiting teachers came by the other day and I was walking them to the door. I said "Oh you should look at our baby birds." They said "We already saw." I look around the brick and see all this bird poop. And I'm like "Guess it's hard to miss now with all the bird poop." Awesome. How embarrassing. Stinkin' birds. The novelty has obviously warn off.
