FINALLY!

Pam's benefit that we have been working so hard for is finally here! It came so fast... the last few months just flew by as I have been amazed time & time again at all the sweet things that people have donated to us for such a great cause for a wonderful woman. I'm not gonna lie though, I will be so relieved once it is all over with! We can go on vacation, take Pam to the places she has wanted to see & spend some good quality time together! And then I can focus on getting moved into our new HOUSE!! And baking this BABY!! :)

Yes, you heard me right! I'm finally pregnant!! That's another FINALLY!! We have been trying pretty hard for almost 2 years now, or at least that's how long I have been on pre-natals trying to conceive! I loved having my sisters growing up and I know Kreston loved having his brothers-- We both wanted so bad for a sibling for our sweet little Allie! It breaks my heart sometimes to see her playing by herself. So anyways, I made a new years resolution this year to get FAT. Not gain a bunch of weight, but I wanted to be carrying a baby sometime this year! (You get my point) Well, I was starting to believe I was just gaining a bunch of weight, which I have, and not getting my baby... Krest & I were ready to go see a fertility specialist to see if there were some underlying problems that we are just unaware of. We didn't understand why?!? So, our anniversary was September 1st and we kinda agreed not to get each other anything-- just go out on a date cause we had this vacation coming up we need to save $ for. Well, Krest surprised me with flowers ( I rarely get flowers, cause I'd much rather have a new outfit) but I still like to be surprised with them every now & again! :) So he did good! Little did he know, I had a dirty little surprise for him too (it was so hard to keep my suspicions of my being pregnant to myself-- I finally had to tell my sisters--whom, by the way, were ecstatic!) Needless to say, my surprise to Kreston was a little sweeter as I seen tears well up in his eyes when I told him! So, there you have it! I will hopefully be able to keep some good updates throughout... The due date is April 23rd (2 days post Allie's birthday)--Allie knows she's going to have to share with the new baby, but hopefully she doesn't have to share her birthday! We will see!

Speaking of the big sister to be... Here are a few of my favorite shots of her that I got this summer! I LOVE these!!
