Just a little glimpse,

of what's been going on. I am worlds worst blogger. :)

Isn't she getting so big?! Jade frequently says that he wishes we could just freeze time. She is perfect just the way she is. She's cute, funny, loves learning new things and is full of life. I am having a hard time grasping the fact that Reyna will be the big sister in just 6 short weeks. Don't get me wrong, I am so excited to make this transition, but it's scary too. Make sense? I am hoping that I am not the only mama who has ever felt this way with adding another little one to the mix.





























I feel extremely blessed that Jade's parents have a summer home just a couple short miles away from Lake Michigan. Ludington is gorgeous and it's nice knowing we always have a free place to stay. Reyna loves the sand. I remember the first time we took her to the beach when she was 7 months. That time, she wasn't too happy with the sand. Now, good luck getting her back to the van. You have to bribe her to leave. When she isn't digging in the sand, she enjoy's chasing the seagulls. Daddy has taught her to call them dumpster ducks instead of their true name, which makes it even more comical. When she starts to chase them, we always wonder when she is going to look back to see how far away from us she has ventured. She is so independant. I do love that about her.
















I know I have said this before, but I am going to make a better attempt at blogging. Time is going by way too fast not to journal about these moments that are passing us by.

her curly hair cracks me up, it is way too cute!!

I agree about adding another little one to the family - I have loved this time of Tiegan being our only daughter, and it's a little scary knowing that we're about to shake things up all over again! It will be wonderful, I can't wait to see how Reyna adapts to being a big sis ;)

I felt that way before each of my kiddos came, but it didn't take long for it to feel like they had always been a part of our life. The first 6 weeks with each was challenging, but once you fall into a routine and everyone gets comfortable with one another . . . golden! I can't wait for your little one to get here!

And Dumpster Ducks - too funny!

She is a sweetie. I'm sure the new addition will fit right in. Dumpster Ducks, I hadn't heard that one, but I like it.

I so hear you! I have been making a better effort this past week to try to blog. It's all going by so fast and I don't want to forget any of it!
Reyna is ADORABLE! She's going to seem SO big when you bring your new baby home. And I felt they exact same way you did about expanding my family. All of a sudden you'll know it no other way!
Love that Jade calls pigeions dumpster ducks! My husband calls them city chickens!

OHMYGOD, when did she get so big? Honestly, she has changed a lot recently, no?

From my experience, the transition will be hard but then you'll see them start to interact and you'll wonder how you ever felt fulfilled without the new one too!

You look great, I love baby bellies.
