We are having a baby BOY!!!

We found out today that our new little addition is a baby boy!! We couldn't be more thrilled!! When they started the ultrasound this morning she started at his head and scanned down. He was laying spread eagle with his arms and legs both straight out. It was very obvious right away that we were having a baby boy! Tip was so excited. Although, he hasn't said it I knew he really wanted a boy! I've been dreaming about a baby boy and since this pregnancy has had such different symptoms I was feeling that it was a boy but wasn't positive. We couldn't be happier! Everything is measuring perfect with him. He looks prefect!! He didn't like being poked at because by the end of the ultrasound he had curled into a little ball at the bottom of my uterus. We all laughed at how much room he had but he was snug right in a tight ball holding onto his legs.

It still amazes me how much I love this little guy so much! I don't have a clue what to do with little boys but I am sure I will learn quick! I know Lexi will be a great big sister! She already loves babies so much! She kisses my belly and says baby. When we listened to his heart beat she said WOW!  I don't know what I am going to do with 2 kids but I can't wait!!

 

Here are his cute little feet, and toes!

 Still can't believe we are having a boy!!

Pumpkin Patch and Farm

We went with our friends the Griffiths and the Broadhead's to the pumpkin patch and farm. We had an absolute blast despite the wind and cold. Lexi loved it!! They had a petting zoo where you could go in with the sheep, goats, lambs, mini horse and pigs. Lex has loves animals lately but never has really seen any. I thought she would be a little nervous, instead she loved it! She chased them, and petted every animal. She was in heaven! She went down the slide, played in the corn, and crawled through tunnels. We went on a little wagon ride and she waved and said hi to the cows with huge grin on her face the whole time. We got a ride out the the patch and picked a 20 lbs pumpkin and a little one for Lexi which she kept calling a ball. We then went out to dinner and had a fabulous time. I didn't get one picture of all the adults and we attempted at getting one of all 4 girls. It was a fun night with friends!

15 months and random photos!!

Can you believe that my baby is 15 months!!! She is actually not a baby anymore :( and is turning into quite the fun little toddler. She is so fun! She has quite the personality and we love it!!

Here are her latest stats:

Weight: 19 lbs 6 oz (8%, FINALLY)

Length: 31 inches (68%)

Head: 18.1 inches (53%)

Lex is so fun! I love playing with her everyday. She is quite a girl girl! 

Here are some of her latest talents:

~She Loves babies and doesn't go very far without her doll.

~She still loves movies.

~She loves playing dress ups, especially wearing tutus.

~She loves getting her hair done and sits and smiles at herself the whole time.

~She is very chatty and talks all day long. Her favorite words are:

Mom, Dad, Oh no! no no no, yes, hi, bye bye, ball, baby, Bamba (grandpa), backpack, Jadi, boon (balloon), moo (cow), baaa (lamby), hee (hourse). And lots of jibberish.

~She loves putting stuff in the garbage (pretty sure we've sacrificed a few toys to the trash.

~Loves milk.

~Loves a bowl of cereal (runs to the kitchen every morning.)

~Loves to be outside

~Loves to go bye bye.

~Loves playing with big kids.

~Loves to go for walks.

~Loves shoes.

~Still loves her blanky and cozy.

~Loves to go down for a nap and to bed at night.

~Loves to wait in the window and watch for Mom to come home from work. She waves like mad as a I drive up. I look forward to seeing her face in the window.

I could go on and on about her. She is so fun. She loves to help. When I get out of the shower she always hands me my towel. She loves to help Tip clean the cars. She also can be quite dramatic and often falls on the floor when she doesn't get what she wants. She loves snacks and all food. Her favorite is fruit snacks! She is getting so big. I can't believe it! It goes by way to fast!!

Here are some random pictures I've taken over the last month with my phone. We still haven't purchased a new camera.

She discovered she could climb on the toy box and reach the lights.

She was so proud!

 This is what Lex looks like most mornings! Crazy Hair!!



Dinner time nap...

Last week we had a busy day and we've been trying to get Lex down to one nap. So she missed her morning nap while we ran errands. Then about ten minutes into her afternoon nap she pooped, awesome. So there went her afternoon nap. She was still relatively happy all day we were just planning on an early bedtime. Then while we were eating dinner, Tip and I were talking and not really paying attention. Then I looked over at Lex and she had crashed right into her bowl of ramen noodles. Poor girl was so tired that she didn't even make it thru dinner. She still had a noodle hanging out of her mouth. It was hilarious! Lexi has never just fallen asleep randomly. She has to be in her bed, so this was a first. So of course we had to snap a few pictures! We sure love our little girl!

Harris Baby #2

We are so EXCITED to announce that we are having baby #2!!!

I am due March 21st! I am almost 14 weeks.

(the picture above was taken at 9 weeks of our little blob)

This pregnancy has been different from Lexi's.
I still have been sick (hence lack of blogging),

but not near as sick as I got with Lexi.

Its also gone by so much faster! I can't believe we are already in

the second trimester!

Lexi loves babies so I am sure she will be a great big sister!

Our Quick Get Away...

We went up to Tremonton for a quick get away. The weather was fantastic! It has been so hot down here in St. George that it has taken its toll on us. So we haven't been able to spend very much time outside because of the heat.  So, we enjoyed as much time outside as we could. We still haven't bought a new camera so the only pictures we have are from my iphone. Thank heavens for camera phones!!

Its always a good time to see Gary and Diana. Poor Lexi got a new tooth while we were there and started sprouting her molars. So she was not her usual happy self. She spent a lot of time sobbing. Lucky Grandma and Grandpa figured out how to cure her tears with rides on the 4-wheeler. Lexi would stand by the window and cry and point at the 4-wheeler.

 This is Lexi's famous oooo face. Every time she sees something and gets excited this is the face she makes.

 About the only thing Lex ate while we were there was corn on the cob. This was a first for her. She loves corn and I think the cob felt great on her teeth.

Thanks Gary and Diana for a great weekend!!
