Ready for another?

As a matter of fact we are =) And the second is on it's way... I actually just found out a couple of days ago that Ricky and I are going to have our second child. We are so excited!!!
I actually took a pregnancy test almost a week earlier than I should have because I had a few dreams that I was pregnant, so I thought I would see =) Ricky had already left for work that morning, so Kar and I had to surprise him in a cute way! When he got all teary eyed, I of course could not hold in my tears... great moment I will never forget! =)
Amy and my mom were just getting back that afternoon from a couple days at the beach with some friends... so Katie and I planned a cute way to tell our scrabble loving mom too =) She was soooo funny... "KELSIE!!! YOU CAN NOT SPACE OUT WORDS LIKE THAT!!!" ... "Why not?" I said... "KELSIE!!!!"... she takes her scrabble games pretty serious =) She was way excited when she finally figured out what we were trying to tell her, after reading it the SECOND TIME!
This good news came right in the middle of a Blessed two weeks off from work to spend with my little love!
Awww I love that little body...
... so curious!
Practicing her Corn hole technique =)
Posing with Grandma!
Serious shot with Mom!
My mom got her this new get-up for the pool... she has learned she CAN NOT get in the pool with out it!
She is already getting to be a pretty good swimmer with it...
... and man does she love the pool...
=)
Oh man... the best... day of swimming and come back to cuddle with Grandma!
My mom, sisters and I FINALLY took a night out to the movies to see Eclipse... YES I AM A COMPLETE SUCKER FOR THESE MOVIES!!!
LOVED IT!
... But I loved even more coming home to this!
My mom, Ricky, Karly and I also took a trip up to Oak Glen.
We really had a lot of fun!
It was such a beautiful day...
Ricky... I love that he and I share a love for animals..
... this guys was hilarious looking!
And what happens when two animal lovers have a child...
... that is right... she is such an animal lover too! =)
Ricky had a blast... he hogged all the food... little turd! =)
"Andma, Andma... WATCH!"
Family shot!
Love this picture!
Time for a super yummy lunch... my mom and I had the french dip, one of our favorites!
Karly started with a small carton of jam =/
Always sharing =)
Love my moms face in this picture... the look of a true Grandma!
And one quick shot of my husband then it was time to hit the road...
And come home for some super yummy apple pie!
The day I found out I was pregnant, I had to go in to give blood... so Aunt Kate watched Kar for a bit... I think she was happy to hear she is going to be a big sister =)
... or maybe just happy to see Aunt Kate. She is nes a happy girl =)
... see what I mean...
Oh I love her!
Oh El Burrito ... there is no better way for a pregnant woman to celebrate!
... man my little girl can EAT!!! LOVE IT!
It is hard to imagine that my heart can be big enough to love another one as much as I love her... but the heart is an amazing thing that can hold so much more than we can think! I am beyond excited to welcome our new little one to our family! YAY!
( p.s. in my dream my due date was April 19th... we will see soon!)

Birthdays, Babies & Rimes =)

 
I have two things to say to this beautiful girl... Happy Birthday again AND Congratulations... I am so happy to report my best friend is going to have her first baby! My mom asked her to take this picture, see the seed on her belly... ha ha... good one mom =) I cried when Amy had told me the good news (I didn't even cry when I found out I was pregnant with Karly... so ya, I am pretty excited for her =)
We took a night out to have dinner at Fridays to celebrate her birthday...
... two BEAUTIFUL BLONDES!
... love girls nights out...
... such a nice night out with all my favorite girls!
_____________

and now to my favorite little girl...
Show me your teeth
Where is your tongue?
How about your ear?
Ok... ok... your eye?
I said show me your nose, not pick your nose =)
and then she was over it, wanted to take off her shirt and kick back =) But I have to report she also knows her hair, neck, knees, butt, elbow, belly, toes and even boobies =/ The best thing in the world is to watch a child grow!!!
Speaking of boobies... Wow Kar! I think you are going to make your mom jealous one day!=)
Pool time has been a must in this heat!
Oh ya... and lots of water!
Oh I have taught you well my child!
On that note...time for a mommy/daughter photo session yet again...
Silly
Sneaky
Shy
Cheesy
O man I love her! Ok... ok... enough of us... let's just get back to her =)
She has been practicing her scrabble game, which apparently... Ricky and I need to do as well! My mom has beat us like 5 times in a row!!! Ugh!
Ah... you are cute!
So happy when she is with her brother and sister!
We also had a "big event" in our little town... Leann Rimes did a small concert in the park... my mom really wanted me to go. I have to say that my husband is starting to rub off on me, I almost threw up when I saw the crowd...
... but I have to say that I really enjoyed some mom and me time! The concert was nice and relaxing and she is an amazing singer! Thanks mom for making me go... I had a lot of fun! 
Hope everyone is enjoying their summer as much as we are!
