AVA SINGING!

SHE'S HERE!!

Mia Rae Honey made her grand entrance on Feb. 11th at 7 lbs. 2 oz. and 19 in. I have posted two photbucket albums so you can check them out. We are all still adjusting to our new addition, but we're having a great time doing it! Ava loves holding and feeding and kissing her new sister, even though she was kind of mad at first. Jake just went back to work from his paternity leave tonight, so reality is about to set in bigtime since he would stay up with Mia until 3 or 4 in the morning every day so I could get a solid block of sleep every night. Without him home I'm on my own and pretty afraid of what the nights ahead have in store for me. Wish me luck!

I KNOW IT'S BEEN A WHILE....

But I just wanted to update and let everyone know how things are going and share some cute videos of Ava. As of right now my c-section is scheduled for Feb. 10th and we are SO EXCITED to see little Mia Rae. My sister-in-law, Maren, had her baby- Zayne Dashawn- on Jan. 6th and he is the cutest little thing! He's making me even more anxious for Mia to arrive. We had a great Christmas and we were able to see all of our parents during the holiday season, which was really nice. Jake and I have our 4 year wedding anniversary coming up on February 5th, but we'll probably be spending it getting our house ready for our new arrival. We did Ava's room, but still have a couple of places where the paint needs to be touched-up and we need to get a light fixture. I'll post pics the next time I get a minute. Mia's going to be taking over Ava's old room, so there's not a whole lot that we need to do in there. Mostly cleaning the furniture, curtains, and carpet. Things we should probably do around the whole house before the baby comes. I've already washed and put away all of the newborn clothes, carseat, bath, and bouncer covers, and receiving blankets- so that's something I got to check off my "to do" list. That's really all that's new here. I'll try to get some pics of Ava's room posted before Mia comes, but if not I'll post them when I post baby pictures. BABY PICTURES!!! :D
