37 Weeks

So I am 37 weeks now and a few days. And can I be done now? : ) We would love for this little guy to come today! I can tell he isn't far off though, I am nauseas again, dialated 2 cm, pretty much uncomfortable all the time, strong contractions, all good signs my body is getting ready for labor. Like every pregnant lady I am hoping that I go into labor earlier than my due date. I am also thinking that I will be induced. Something I have been against this whole pregnancy because I really enjoyed the experience of Daisy coming on her own. However, I am ready to not be pregnant and to have this boy here with us. So far we haven't settled on a sure name, we will see who he is when he comes out.

Temple Lights

I really wanted to take Daisy over to see the temple and all the beautiful Christmas lights and Nativity before we have this little guy. Luckily Aaron was willing to drive all the way over to Mesa last Sunday. Daisy is still a little small to get the whole picture of Christmas, but just because she may not fully understand doesn't mean she didn't have a good time : )

She was actually looking a a plane in this picture, but we can pretend it was the Christmas star right?

Isn't he cute?

Us.

Bear

When the weather actually started to cool down and Daisy could play outside in the mornings we had to set some rules. One of the big rules we had to learn was the difference between inside toys and outside toys.

Daisy has a special blanket and bear both of which she has tried to take outside, but I don't let her. So what I told her we could do with the bear was to set him by the door so he could watch her play...

Now she sets him by the door to watch whenever she plays outside.

(Please Ignore the Messy Face)

I wanted to make sure I blogged that becuase its cute, just like her.

Two Years Old and Loving Life!

Daisy is two! Her birthday was on Wednesday. We had a low key day. I feel a little guilty that we didn't do anything incredibly special to celebrate this special girl, this whole being 9 month pregnant thing puts a damper on some stuff. Oh well next year we will do something awesome! Despite our lazy birthday day, I think Daisy had a pretty good 2nd birthday. We went to the park, she got to take two baths (one of her favorite activities), watch Toy Story 3, play with the 30 balloons Aaron and I blew up, open presents and eat a chocolate cupcake. She also got to go to Peter Piper Pizza with Grandma and Grandpa Brooks a few days before her birthday, which she loved!

Having a toddle in toe can be a challenge but man we love this girl. Here she is wearing my shower cap and bracelets, just makes me laugh.

She got a little bored at the park after a while and crawled into the basket and asked to go. I love the look on her face, its all Aaron.

She is getting so big!

Look how little she was!

Birthday Presents.

It didn't take her long to figure out that there were goodies inside.

She we got all fancy... not.

She is loving this little Minnie Mouse Tea set, its her new favorite. She will hand me a cup and pour into it while saying "more".

This is her "I am blowing out the candle face". She almost did it, but eventually I had to step in with the final blow. 

She was having a good time putting bows in Dad's hair, Aaron doesn't look to thrilled.

She loves to sweep and now she has her very own broom.

Daisy never stops. She is full of energy and is a sweet girl. She can be a typical toddler, but she makes our days fun. She will chase me down and give me a big hug on my leg. She says " I hungy". It take an effort to get her to sit still long enough for me to do her hair. She loves to look at books before bed. She also loves puzzles and thanks to Grandma Trish and Grandpa Dave now we have some. She loves to play with other kids. She can also down food pretty impressively. She loves baby things, I hope that means she will adjust well to have a little baby brother. I can't say it enough, we just love this girl!
