You know you're 9 months pregnant when....

Well we've hit the 9th month mark and strangely i always seem to forget how much it SUCKS~!!!! So to add a little humor to my last few weeks/days (hopefully) of pregnancy I will add my funny findings. You know you are nine months pregnant when:



1. You drop something and more often than not, decide its not worth it to pick it up

2. Everytime you stand up you think, "is my water going to break this time?"

3. You can't roll over in bed with out assistance

4. You roll over in bed every 10 minutes or else you are going to regret it

5. Your kids don't get the baths they should because it hurts too much to kneel & bend by the tub

6. Your kids get in WAY to much TV time...so you can rest

7. You spend more time peeing and then trying to get comfy again at nights than you do sleeping

8. People ask you, almost daily, if you are having twins

9.The 1 thing that could help induce labor is the LAST thing you feel like doing (whoopie)

10. You eat out more than you ever have previously

11. Cereal and fruit snacks seem perfectly acceptable meals for picky toddlers

12. Your house looks like mom is AWOL but all the baby stuff is up and ready

13. Shaving your legs is joke...as is lotioning them

14. Begging for your water to break as part of your daily prayers

15. You can't remember the last time you took a full breath with ease

16.Your hubby no longer pouts about being "put off"

17. Anytime feels like a naptime

18. Your baby knows when "naptime" is and decides to practice Karate just as your about to drift off

19. You stop scheduling things...just in case

20. You just want them to come, despite the pain, so you can snuggle and love on your little miracle



As the most impatient person alive...I find myself daily wishing and praying that he will come quickly. He is quite a large baby 7lbs 4oz+ since Monday & pushing out a 10lb baby doesnt sound like an awesome party to me. I am dialated to 3cm already and an measuring about 38 weeks (my cycles are weird so its hard to track the exact date).



I am so anxious to see Dalli interact with him! She already sits & rubs my belly, then gives it kisses. She is naturally a motherly little thing and enjoys her babies. She is a huge help (most of the time) and loves to be involved in everything mommy does.



I am a little nervous about taking care of and juggling 2 kids under 2yrs old. I just hope i can give them the time they each need and hope Dalli gets her needs met too. Also having a boy terrifies me. I grew up with all sisters and am in such a "girl mode" with Dalli that I am at a loss of what to do with a little boy. So ANY ADVICE is appreciated on both subjects! Please share the motherly wisdom :)

3D Pictures of our Boy!

Here are some 3D pictures of our little boy! He looks great! and has mom's chubby cheeks already :) His feet measured 6cm...which if you grab a ruler, is really big! So I guess he has daddy's feet. He looks just like Dusty did in his hospital pictures. Love my handsome boys!!
Oh and we(I)'ve decided to name him Roan David Lemon!

1 Year Old & Family Picts

Holy cow its hard to believe that i have been a mommy for a full year! Time sure does fly and it seems like over night my tiny baby is now growing up. On Saturday we had a party for her and lots of family came. We had fun on the giant rope swing and watching dalli destroy her cake...(on a side note, who decorates a kids 1st b-day cake with orange frosting?). She truely is our little princess!

This summer has been a good one with lots happening. Dusty is now working here and running his own welding truck! It is so awesome to have my man home each night and to see Dalli and Dusty bond. She is becoming quite the daddy's girl. Dalli and I went to Cali with my family for Tiff's wedding reception there. it was fun but again the heat this summer killed me and i was soo sick! I spent a week away at YW camp this summer and had a blast. The first part of august we went to my Welling reunion. THis is one tradition that I treasure, even if we all did end up sick :) Another bit of exciting news is that we are expecting baby #2! We are thrilled for a baby this March. I would be a bit more excited if i wasn't soooo sick! It has been awful, especially with the heat, booo. I have also been more mean with this pregnancy. Dusty told me that if i am this mean with all of them then we are done :) I just told him its because its probably a boy! hahaha...we still dont know the gender, yet.

When the computer works, i'll try to add pictures!

Fav daddy moment yet

Dusty changing dalli's poopy diaper and starts talking like dr. Seuss! "...I do not like dirty diapers. I do not like them on a train. I do not like them in the rain. I do not like them in a car. I do not like them anywhere!" I laughed so hard. What a sweet daddy :)

Life with Lemons

My friend Laycee posted a hilarious blog about appreciating (and posting) the day to day things instead of only posting the BIG things. I thought i'd give it a try too!

*Love when 511 tells you to use snow chains and 4WD on wet roads

*A truely happy moment...watching my dad make my baby giggle her little head off

*Finding a dried splat of green beans across the room on a picture

*When the word "Mama" makes Dalli laugh herself silly

*Catching Dustin watching (and enjoying) an eposide of Dora the Explorer

*Knowing how Dalli feels when she drops her cookie and screams until its back in her hand :)

*Hank sneaking into my neices bed and snuggling up under her covers--refusing to come home

*Love how the weather parallels life: Just when you think its spring...you get another foot of snow.

*Glad that a broken collar bone and baby mean good $$$$$$$ in our return this year!

Happy half Birthday

I can't believe Dalli is 6months old! It has flown by so fast. She is so funny and such a good baby. She sleeps through the night and is old crabby when she's hungry or tired. She has the biggest blue eyes and her daddy's cute lips/mouth. I think she's looking more like my side of the fam but still see a lot of dusty in her too. He's such a great daddy and pitches in with diapers, baths, feedings, and all the other fun stuff. He took her for a ride around the yard on a horse this weekend. she seemed to really like it. She loves puppies and Hank is her buddy. I own tummy time to that funny little dog who entertains my girl. Her little red curls are getting longer and crazier. I'm trying to teach her to say "mama" but all she does is squeal and laugh at me. I'd bet her 1st word is Hank" lol. she is close to crawling and we expect teeth very soon. Can't believe i have been so extremely blessed to be a mother and to have such a wonderful little family!
