So Much to be Thankful for

Yesterday I came home from doing the baby registry and shopping with my mom in Syracuse to find a beautiful new area rug in our living room!! It's an early Christmas present from Kurt's mom, dad, brother and sisters!!!! You guys are the best!!!! My sis-in-law Katherine picked out the carpet for us and she did a wonderful job, it matches the living room so good!!!! I'm so happy I just love and what a difference it makes in the look of our living room!!!

Wednesday night we stopped over to see Kurt's mom for a minute and she had gotten out this ride on horse that used to be Kurt's when he was little. Mom was sooo generous to give it to Kurt and I for the baby to play with when he or she arrives. It was just soo touching and sweet, thanks mom!!!!

One of the things I am sooo thankful for is our beautiful new baby that will be arriving here before too long!!! Our little peanut is looking more like a baby now and less like fuzzy snowstorm!!!!

My 2nd family on Thanksgiving day!!!! I'm so blessed with amazing in-laws, a girl couln't ask for a nicer and more loving family. Next to my hubbt is his sister Jen, his brother Matt in the back, the triplets, Laura, Rachel and Rebecca and his sister Katherine in the back!!!! There are no pics of me and Kurt with my family because we had Thanksgiving with my family on Friday and almost all of us were in our comfy clothes!!!!

A New Baby!!!!

Here are a few more pictures from the day my new baby niece Rylee was born. Here's grandma holding Rylee. Grandma was the 2nd one to hold her after her daddy and her Big brother Carter!!

Carter was sooo proud to hold his new baby sister!!!

He did however tell poppi later to "throw her back in her basket"

Carter isn't sure what to think of her yet???

Poppi holding his new granddaughter,

Carter came right over to check it out, I don't

think he was to happy with poppi paying attention to

Rylee and not to him!!

Pretty in Pink!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't see me!!!!!!!!!!

Ohhh, The JOYS of home ownersip!!!!!!

Today was our 2nd day of no HEAT at the house!!!! To keep warm kitty and I have had to snuggle to keep warm!!!!! Today we ran out of fuel oil and are freezing!!!! When I called to see about having some delivered I was told maybe tomorrow but the girl wasn't sure she would have to check her computer and get back to me. I'm still waiting and if her computer is anything like mine I'm gonna be waiting a WHILE!!!!!

Friday afternoon kitty and I had to snuggle to keep warm because the nozzle where the fuel oil comes out was plugged because we are near the bottom of the oil tank. We had to spend all afternoon snuggled under the blanket I made to keep warm. Thank goodness my friend Veronica taught me to crochet and I made a warm, snuggly blanket!!!! Luckily my dear husband felt bad that this poor preggo momma had to spend all day cold that he took me out to dinner. My sweet dad-in-law even offered to come over a fix our furnace at 10pm Friday night, when he got out of work!!!! I was already warm and toasty in bed so I figured we could survive until Saturday morning!!! We made it and were warm and toasty until early this morning when we ran out of fuel!!! Here's hoping that we get some heat soon or my next post may show pictures of me in an igloo channeling my inner eskimo!!!!!

16 weeks and counting!!!

Ok, here's the baby belly at 16 weeks. I am 4 months today!! Not all the belly is baby belly some of the belly was there to start with and I enjoyed some taco bell for dinner tonite!! Not the best picture but Kurt was my photographer and he had been enjoying a few adult beverages!! Well for the most part the morning sickness is passing and I'm starting to enjoy food more, let's just hope it doesn't lead to gaining too much weight!! Next week is my checkup and after that our next appointment will be a sonogram for a structure check and if the baby cooperates we can find out if baby K is a boy or girl if we want. I'm having a hard deciding if I want to know the sex of the baby. Part of me wants to be surprised but there are soo many cute baby clothes out there I kinda want to know if I should be shopping for a baby girl or baby boy. I had a dream a few weeks ago that our baby was a boy but part of me thinks that is because I was looking at baby pictures of my husband with my mother-in-law, so now I'm kinda curious. We'll see, guess you'll just have to check back to see what we decide!!!!
