It's a Girl!

According to the Poll...

Well, according to the poll it looks like the "general public" thinks Baby#3 is a Boy. With 44% voting Boy and 27% voting Girl. But what intringues me is that 27% of you also think I am having Twins! (Are you crazy!!!) I am hoping this was the default/comical answer for all of you, because if we are having twins I have a major life change coming. :) Anyhow, tomorrow is the ultrasound so hopefully I should have an answer for you soon.

Aloha FIVE!

We held a birthday party for Abby's 5th B-day on Saturday. For a low budget, last minute party, it turned out great. Abby decided a luau birthday would be cool so we transformed our neighborhood park into a "hula girls paradise" complete with nets, starfish, charm bracelet station, and even a Hawaiian guitar. Here are some pics of my hula girl and her hoppin' hula party.

I would like to give a special thanks to all who attended, but especially to "Uncle" David and "Aunt" Cindy who provided the elaborate Hawaiian decorations and the charm bracelet making station. (I wish I had pics of these decorations, because they were really over the top!) I would also like to thank Megan for providing her bounce house, and to my parents for helping with the food. Without all of you, our "party" would have been pretty lame!

Spring Training

I have to say, the best time of year in Arizona is spring. Sure...its not too hot, etc. etc. But the real reason I think spring is the absolute best is the SPRING TRAINING games! And wouldn't you know Phoenix happens to be the U.S. Hotspot for Major League Baseball's spring training.

For those of you who are not from here, you have no idea what you are missing. The entire family is happy attending a spring training game. We usually sit on the lawn where the kids run around recklessly and no one cares, I can layout and get a tan, and Taylor has his D-backs to obsess over. Its heaven on earth. I have to say it almost rates up there with summer in So Cal.

To celebrate Taylor finishing all of his exams, we all went to a D-backs game to cheer on our favorite team. Here are some pics of our day.


And a special treat for those who have asked:

I absolutely hate pics of me during pregnancy and post pregnancywhich = 1 year or more of no photos! However, due to popular demand I have decided to post this pick. Yes, I know, I am large and in charge.... And remember I still have 4 months to go. Yikes!

Tennis Anyone???

Grandma and Grandpa gave the kids some tennis lessons in the Valley of the Sun. Point, Set, Match, they tore it up! (P.S. Have you ever seen a grandma look so HOT in a jump suit. I think not!)

Goodbye ol' Friends

You know when you have outgrown your "fat pants" that it is time to move into maternity. Goodbye cute clothes. I will see you in a year and a half. :(
