Big News...

Hi!
As most of you know, we are expecting our 3rd child in April of next year. It came by bit of a surprise, but we are excited about it! Its going to be hard, but I guess I will learn just like all the other mother's of 3 do. We are hoping for a boy, but I will be fine with another little girl. Poor daddy though, if he gets stuck with 3 girls. LOL. So that's the biggest news going on in our family right now!

Ashlee is going to Pre-K and I think she likes it. She fights me in the morning and tells me its boring, but I think that's only because she is not a morning person and doesn't want to be messed with when I'm trying to get her around. When I pick her up from school she is happy and says she had a good day, so who knows. On Fridays, they do "Friday cooking" and "show & tell" so she likes going to school on Fridays.
We just kicked off our fall ball season of softball last week. This league is a whole different story. Its actually softball with ALL girls! No parents go out on the field and they actually throw the ball to make outs. So, Ash isn't quite used to this yet, but she is learning and its a good thing she is on this team and this league because she is progressing and it seems as we are actually playing "ball". They even have parent score keepers. LOL

Anna, well not much is going on with her. She is talking more and more everyday. She thinks she has to do everything Ash does. She thinks she is just as big as Ash as well. Ash does it, so does Anna. I love my little girls!

Mikel and I are trying to prepare our house to sell. With us expecting another child, there really is no way we can stay in this 2 bedroom house anymore. 2 bedrooms and 3 children doesn't work very well. Its cluttered enough with just us 4, try adding another one. NO WAY. So, I am excited to move to Edmond finally! We live 90% of our life in Edmond, so this will help out so much. We just pray we can find something we can afford.

These last few weeks my heart has been heavy about missing my mom. I wanted so bad to be able to call her to tell her I'm pregnant, but I can't. Her birthday would have been tomorrow, I want to tell her Happy Birthday, but I cant. She was there with me during every moment when I gave birth to my 2 children, this birth she will not be there to help me through the labor and pain. I could go on and on... its not easy living life without a mom when your only 25 and trying to raise a family. anyways, pray for me.

Last weekend, Mikel and I got the opportunity to go to Dallas for the weekend without our kids. It was a nice time and I enjoyed spending time with my husband. Although, the Sooners lost, it was still a fun weekend.

Ok, that's enough rambling for now. I sure wish I had more time to blog. I feel like our life right now is so busy and by the end of the evening I am worn out and ready for bed.

Happy Weekend!
