Pics of Addisyn's and Little Man's Rooms

I'm finally getting around to sharing pictures of Addisyn's new room and little man's room! We still have a little decorating to do in the nursery and are awaiting a few more pieces from the set to complete the room. Now that the room is close to being done, I feel almost ready for him to come! Brad and I are both very pleased with how the rooms look - hopefully the little ones love them too!










And a pic of one of my favorite times in the evening - Brad reading Addisyn her bedtime stories.

34 Week Appointment

Yesterday I had a check-up with Dr Rosado. Once again, nothing overly exciting to report! Little man's heartrate was in the 130's, he is head down, and I've gained 4 more lbs. Insane right??!! Next week begins my weekly appointments and they'll start checking for progress. Dr Rosado made her prediction and is guessing he comes 2/20 and is 7lbs 14oz. I can't say I have a ton of faith in her guessing - she thought Addisyn would be just over 7 lbs - only 1 1/2 lbs off!
The nursery is painted and is finally coming together. Other than a few decorations, its pretty much done. We've been working hard the last few weeks to prep Addisyn for whats about to happen. She got a book from Santa about being a big sister and Brad's been reading it to her often. We visit little man's room often and talk about him, so hopefully she won't be completely shocked when the time comes.
And for all of you who think I'm so much smaller this time, here is a new belly pic along with a comparison from Addisyn's pregnancy. I still say you're wrong!
Then

And now

And we can't end a post without an update on Miss Addisyn. Unfortunately today she's under the weather. Her temp is up and the nose is leaking! Hopefully she'll shake this cold quickly. Here are a few pics of her over the past week.

32 Week Appointment

Another two weeks...another doctor's appointment! Not a whole lot to report - which is good! I'm up 2 more pounds (20 total) and little man's heartrate was in the 140's. I'm guessing my nights of good sleep are quickly coming to an end. The past three nights I've been up at least 4-5 times. It's just so hard to move with such a large belly! I'm definitely a little freaked out today by there being so few weeks left and so much to do. Let's hope nesting kicks in early!

Merry Christmas!!

Christmas this year with Addisyn was so much fun! We spent the morning opening her gifts from Santa, then my family came over for the day. Addisyn loved opening her presents, and had a blast hanging out with her cousins. She has way more toys then she could ever need, and has quickly designated a few select ones as favorites! Brad and I exchanged presents, but my surprise present arrived the following afternoon. As I pulled into the driveway and opened the garage, this is what I found

We've been talking about new vehicles and test driving many different ones, but I was totally not expecting for Brad to just stick one in the garage for me! What a wonderful hubby!!!! Here are a few more pics from our Christmas celebration.

Breakfast with Santa

As usual, our wonderful mom's group had a perfect event for the time of the year, thanks to Julie! The kids all had a great time playing together, and only a few were actually scared of the man in red. The fun for the adults came when it was time to leave...cars + snow covered lane = disaster! After some shoveling and a little hands on pushing didn't work, a game of bumper cars finally did the trick!

A Winter Wonderland

Finally - a huge snow storm!! Brad and I were so excited to take Addisyn in the snow, and she had such a wonderful time. We made a quick trip to Walmart Friday night just to buy her a sled and she loved it! If it weren't for her little cheeks being cold, we would of stayed out all day! Brad's parents and aunt were here for the weekend to celebrate Christmas and really enjoyed spending time with Addisyn. Fortunately, they were able to make the trip back home today with no troubles. Christmas week is just starting and already it looks like the toy store has puked in our house!! What are we going to do with all these toys??!!

Tis the Season...

for holiday parties, cookie baking, and craziness! We are officially in the swing of Christmas at our household. We kicked off the month with putting our tree up and the Watkins extended family Christmas. Addisyn really enjoyed decorating the tree. Last week proved to be super busy - we had three holiday parties! The first being with my dearest friends from high school, then our mom's club party, and Friday we finished off by hosting Brad's office party.

We spent Saturday evening at Hershey with our friends the Williamson's, and are now getting ready for Christmas with Brad's family. They will be arriving tomorrow, and like a little kid, I can't wait to see what they've brought!!! Addisyn and I have been busy baking and had a cookie swap this morning with our mom's group - I'm sure I'll be tipping the scales once I'm done eating all the delicious yummies we brought home!

And for little man (who still is nameless), we had a check-up this morning and all looks well. We're up another 2 lbs and his heart was beating away in the 150's. He's been such an active fellow lately that from the time my eyes open in the morning, he's on the go! Here are some pics over the past few weeks and a 30 week belly pic. Enjoy!
