I'm Back!!!!

2009-06-30T20:21:00.000-05:00

So sorry it has been so long. We went to the beach a couple of weeks ago and had a great time. Big Mama was not sporting her beach body only a cover up! Caroline Reed never saw the sand or ocean because it was sooo hot!! Carter had a great time since she has learned to swim. I have been so bad about taking pictures.!!!! I do have a few from the beach and Caroline Reed in the bath tub. She is 7 weeks old today and such a sweet girl! We took our first trip to the ER Sunday. Carter fell off our bed and busted her head open on the corner of the nightstand. It is right above her eyebrow so she got a few stiches. Let's just say my kitchen looked like a homicide scene and the waiting room at the hospital was like being at the bus station!! We were there for 4 hours...hope we don't ever have to go back!!

Few pics of Caroline Reed

Caroline Reed Stacy is here!! YAY!!

2009-05-14T18:52:00.000-05:00

Caroline Reed came Tuesday May 12 at 10:02 am. She weighed 7lbs. 6oz. I actually went into labor at 2:45 am and was scheduled to be at the hospital at 5:30 am to be induced. When we got to the hospital things went really fast...totally different than with Carter. We are so excited and she is just preciious!!!! I promise to post pics real soon...I'm trying to adjust to having 2 now!!

Update

2009-04-25T08:09:00.000-05:00

I went to the doctor last Monday and I was 1 cm dialated. She weighed 5lbs. 14 oz. at the visit. My doctor seems to think she is going to be about 6 lbs 6oz. when she is born. Who knows?? If Caroline Reed does not come early then the doctor will induce me on May 12. I go back to see the doctor on Monday so we will see if things stay the same!! Can't wait to meet her!! Big Mama went with Carter's class on a field trip to the zoo...thought that would send me into labor!

HAPPY EASTER!

2009-04-12T17:23:00.000-05:00

We have had a busy week full of Easter egg hunts and fun parties! Caroline Reed will be here in about 4 weeks and we are so excited and can't wait to meet her! If I have not had her by May 11 or 12 my doctor will induce me then.

I couldn't find Carter~~~~so I found her in my bathroom standing on my counter making it snow with baby powder!!! Next stop, TIME OUT! Never a dull moment around here!

Spring Like in January?

2009-01-23T15:24:00.000-06:00

Today actually felt like spring so we headed outside to play...because tomorrow we will be back to winter! I thought I would get a few pictures to update the blog.

Happy Birthday Matt!!! / Name

2009-01-07T18:25:00.000-06:00

HAPPY 29th birthday MATT!!!! Enjoy your last years in your 20's! We have decided on a name for baby girl #2....Caroline Reed...I love it as a double name, but Matt said he will just call her Caroline. I only got 2 pictures Christmas morning..no clue why I put my camera down! Carter was real excited about Santa coming, but looked so confused when she walked out and saw her presents. Her big present was a play kitchen. Santa and Mrs. Claus stayed up until 1 o'clock putting it together..thats just what they told us~~~ We have moved Carter to a big girl bed and it's great when she finally gets to sleep! I will try and take some pictures soon!

2008-12-14T08:39:00.001-06:00

I caught some crazy faces in an attempt to get a good Christmas card picture!

2008-12-14T08:32:00.000-06:00

Why does she look so depressed?

2008-12-14T08:31:00.000-06:00

Woo hoo.. look at the camera.

2008-12-14T08:28:00.000-06:00

Sistah Sistah

2008-12-01T19:22:00.000-06:00

Well....big Sistah is going to have a baby Sistah!!! We are so excited about another sweet girl! She was a little hard to figure out. She had her legs crossed so tight that we had to go to our Dr.'s visit then come back and try again. She finally let us know right at the end! Matt was right the whole time,me I was wrong! Matt said he and sweet baby Jesus had a talk a long time ago and that he would be having all girls. He is a great girl dad!! I've still been sick off and on...surely its almost over! Sorry I have not posted in a month. I will post pictures soon. Carter got a haircut and I think it looks so much better!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

2008-11-01T10:33:00.000-05:00

Happy Halloween(a day late)!! Big Sistah turns 3 today so I will post pics of the birthday girl soon. The sickness is starting to ease up...we get to find out what we are having on Dec. 1. I have been thinking boy only because I have been sick longer than I was with Carter..who knows??

Carter got to be the leader for her class in the costume parade since her birthday was the next day..she thought she was so cool!

HEY SISTAH GO SISTAH SOUL SISTAH!!!!!!

2008-10-05T20:13:00.000-05:00

We are excited!!! I'm 8 weeks due on May 15. These past few weeks have been hard because I have been so sick!!!!!! When I am getting sick, Carter acts like she is getting sick too! I got dehydrated this past week and instead of going to the hospital my Dr. said that home health could come and give me an iv at home so they did. Now that I'm hydrated again I hope this sickness will go AWAY! Matt has been wonderful!!!! He has taken over every duty at home!! I really appreciate how hard he works for our family everyday....then comes home to take care of me and Carter!!! He has said to me in the past that everybody has said great things about their husbands on their blogs except me...well here's to you Matt Stacy for being a great father and husband!!

Back From the Beach

2008-08-12T21:36:00.001-05:00

We had a great time at the beach with my brother and his girlfriend. The weather was great!! Carter LOVES the ocean...all she wanted to do was swim in the ocean! She did NOT want to get out and play in the sand! We went to the Wharf and Carter rode the ferris wheel and had a blast. We went to eat one night with the Barnes family and I can't believe I did not get a picture of that because I sure got a picture of everything else! Enjoy!

2008-08-12T21:36:00.000-05:00

Carter loved the man playing the guitar at Cosmo's..she stood there and danced forever.

Lily Grace's Birthday

2008-07-27T21:55:00.000-05:00

We had a weekend filled with birthday parties...I forgot my camera at the others but remembered to bring it to Lily Grace's. Lily Grace had her 4th birthday party at Pump It Up, she was dressed in her Fancy Nancy attire and looked so cute! All the kids had a GREAT TIME!! I accidently had my camera on the wrong setting, so some of the pictures are dark and not very clear..sorry! Not much to report around here. I will try and get better at updating the blog!!!
