Life is going so good, its been a bit crazy, but we are all adjusting. Lexi loves her baby sister (sometimes a little too much) and Rozlyn is a perfect baby so far!! We are so grateful

Rozlyn Evelyne

We are all crazy about this little doll, and couldn't be happier with her! She loves to eat and sleep, and is a happy baby:)

Pictures coming soon!

Im at the hospital right now, and forgot my camera cord...sorry! I went in for an induction yesterday morning, and everything went fabulous. I was induced because I wanted to be, and my mom got into town yesterday, so it worked out really well. When I got to the hospital I was dilated to a 3, so they put me on pitocin around 830am, I was a 6 at 12, then an 8 around 115pm, and a ten at around 2pm. The doctor wasn't there yet, so the nurse had me do a practice push to see how close the baby was, and she was like STOP! Um she has a lot of hair, lets wait for the doctor. So when the dr got there, I pushed through one contraction and she was out. Rozlyn Evelyne was born at 240pm 6lbs 10 oz, and 18.75 inches long. She looks exactly like lexi looked at birth except her hair is longer and thicker. She is the sweetest thing!

I enjoyed this labor and delivery so much more than I did the first time around. I was completely relaxed, and everything went so smooth. I can't stop kissing her sweet cheeks. Lexi came and visited last night, and couldn't get enough of her baby sister. Im a little nervous to bring Rozlyn home tomorrow morning, but Im so grateful my mom will be staying with us for two whole weeks to help out with the girls. I will post a few pictures tomorrow. :)

And thanks for all the name suggestions! We had a hard time deciding on one, but Rozlyn was the only one we could agree on, and it fits her perfectly. :)

Help us pick a name!

I am about 3 and a half weeks until my due date. We have gone back and forth on a few names, but seriously I can't decide, and we probably wont know for sure until we see her. Her middle name is going to be Evelyne after my mom, but I want to see what you think is the cutest, please comment and leave your vote so we can name this child with confidence:) Thank you!

1. Roxanna
2. Whitney
3. Rozlynn
4. Jenna

Some of these Justin likes, and some I like, and we can only agree on one.

Because you want to know about my exciting life...

Us four kiddos

Lexi's new favorite spot with a blanket over the heater

She took out all of the winter stuff and spread it throughout the house!

So just a quick update...we are currently in oregon until next Wednesday, and I love it. I love my mom and sisters cooking, the restaurants, the shopping, etc. We decided to come up this week for my neices baptsism, and to see my family because I didn't feel comfertable traveling over Christmas. I am 9.5 weeks away from my due date...I wish it was closer, but I know the time is going to fly. So far my weight gain has been 30 lbs, which is a lot of a 5ft 1 frame, so ya Im getting pretty big, but I just have to keep telling myself that it will come off sooner than later. :) Other than feeling fat and unnattractive, I have been feeling really good. Sore and achy sometimes, but that's about the worst of it. I think we have come up with a name, not because I am crazy about the name, but because it's the only one we both like enough. But of course we will have to see her first. With Lexi's pregnancy Justin and I felt nervous and scared, and really didn't know what to expect. With this one, we just can't wait for her to be here.

HUGE

No I don't have pictures, and I may or may not post some I haven't decided yet. Justin looked at me last night while I was um busy baking a pumkpin roll (which may be part the cause of the hugeness) and he was like "seriously this is how you looked right before you delivered Lexi." Really honey? I'm not feeling incredibly self conscious already, oh and don't remind me I still have atleast 3 months left. But really I myself can't believe how much bigger I am with this pregnancy than I was with Lexi. Everyone always told me that you just get bigger with each one, but guess I thought since I got back to a pretty flat stomach after Lexi, that I woudn't get that big with my next. Boy was I wrong. AND Im already feeling a little tight in my maternity clothes..so then what? Pajamas and sit on the couch all day? Okay enough negativity. I'm thrilled and so grateful to be having another baby girl, and I'm just going to have to worry about the weight issue some other time. The baby is always moving around and kicking, and I love it! Hopefully these next few months just fly by!

In other news, miss Lex is a little fire ball. She is constantly making me laugh because she is so full of personality or cry because she is so darn stubborn. A couple of weeks ago after nursery she comes into the kitchen with a towel on her head and says: "look mom I'm Jesus!" I had to laugh. We have been off and on potty training for the last 5 months, and she told me the other day that it was my fault she is still in diapers. Lol I really didn't even know how to respond. She seems to be really excited about having a little sister, and I just hope that they can get along. :)

Lexi being crazy
Yes, dumb face, and dumb sideways, but I cant fix it-18.5 weeks

I guess it has been about 2 months since my last post...oops sorry! We have had a pretty good couple of months. We left Lexi for the first time last weekend to go to Spokane, WA. Justin was the best man for his friends wedding. Lexi stayed one night at my brothers house, and one night at Justin's sister's house. I missed her so much, but it was good for us to go without her, and good for her to be away from us. This weekend we are going to Portland for three nights for a gymnastics competition. I wish we could stay longer, but it will be a good amount of time to see my family and a couple friends. Our most exciting news is that we are having a baby girl in February. I am 21.5 weeks along. I cannot believe how much bigger I am already with this pregnancy than I was with Lexi!! Yikes :) This baby and Lexi will be almost exactly 3 years apart. I am due February 10th. When I was about 12 weeks, I took the intelligender pee test, and it said it was a boy. The test is supposed to be about 90% accurate. So although we weren't 100% planning on a boy, we were suprised at the ultrasound 2 weeks ago when it was a girl. She was so cute, and she totally has the side profile that Lexi does. I would have loved to have a boy, but I'm really excited to have another girl because I don't have to buy anything new, and we don't have to give up our office upstairs because she will be sharing a room with Lexi. Anyway, I am already counting down the days until I can meet this sweet girl, and give up my granny maternity jeans :) Here our some pictures from the last month.
