My name is Laura and my wonderful husband is Jeff. We live in Bushy Fork and enjoy life to the fullest. We have two awesome kids, Evangeline (Evan) and Wyatt. They make us smile everyday and keep us busy. We have amazing family and friends and we're incredibly blessed! Life is good, and God is great! :)

31 weeks!

We went to prenatal peek last week to catch a glimpse of Wyatt.  He was pretty stubborn and didn't want his picture taken (unlike his sister), but we did get just a few images of his face.  Here he is at 30 weeks:




I can't wait to see his sweet, chunky face!  And he does have quite a bit of hair too...Wonder if he will look anything like Evan.  :)
This week is 31 weeks pregnant!  Hard to believe in just 6 weeks, he will be considered full term!  We have so much to do to get ready for his arrival!  haha  :)

Here is Evan and I at 31 weeks:

Here is what is going on at 31 weeks:
This week, your baby measures over 16 inches long. He weighs about 3.3 pounds (try carrying four navel oranges) and is heading into a growth spurt. He can turn his head from side to side, and his arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath his skin. He's probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up. Take comfort: All this moving is a sign that your baby is active and healthy.


And yes, Wyatt is definitely healthy and active.  :)

Evan is still doing great with the potty.  She truly amazes me.  She tells us every time she needs to go and has even become comfortable using public restrooms (with her own portable, foldable potty seat, of course).  She is wearing big-girl panties all day (and usually even when she naps), and she still sleeps in a pull-up.  Some mornings she wakes up dry, but we definitely still have the wet diapers in the morning sometimes.  We have only had a few pee pee accidents, and that is it!  It's crazy, because I don't expect her to do so well with it, but she is just so awesome...So we keep encouraging her.  And she just thrives on the cheering and excitement so far.  Hopefully she can keep it up!

We went to the mountains this past weekend to visit with some of Mom and Dad's friends and go to Merlefest.  It was a dreary, wet weekend, but we still had fun.  We went to Grandfather Mountain on Saturday and then to Merlefest on Sunday.  Here is a collage of some pictures:
Evan LOVES to talk and sing and dance.  She is saying so many things now and stringing words together.  She will definitely repeat anything and everything you say...So you have to be careful!  haha  :)
