Bucket List

People always ask if I have cravings during my pregnancy.

I really don't I answer.

But, maybe I do.

I crave things I can't have or won't while pregnant.

So this time I created a list that is in Josh's car for me to add to.

I refer to it as my post pregnancy bucket list.

Silly, I know.

With Presley and Emerson I did not eat lunch meat, hot dogs, soft cheeses

and most sodas.Anyone that knows me knows my favorite food is a good sandwich.

So, here's my list:

1. Turkey sub from Subway

2. Wasabi Roast beef from Tropical Smoothie (I've never had it but hear its delicious)

3. Cuban from deli in S Tampa

4. Any Sub from Larry's Giant

5. Blue cheese on anything.

6. Turkey sub from Jimmy John's

7. Oscar Mayer Turkey Dogs-one with ketchup and one with mustard

8. Corn dogs-especially the fried ones from carnivals

9. Mt Dew-I'm not a coffee drinker so occasionally at work I treat my self to a Mt Dew. This one has been hard to not think about often, a few of the nurses and several Residents live off it. I love the smell of Mt Dew and the taste. My friend Haley bought me a mini Mt Dew chap stick after I oddly whiffed her soda one day. It smells good but is a big ole tease in the taste factory.

10. A nice glass of wine with dinner.

So this is my list that I plan to conquer once little Miss Emerson arrives.

Pretty Baby

Josh and I treated ourselves to 3D Ultrasound

of Emerson.

Maybe we ( really I ) am a littled biased

but I think we make

Beautiful Babies.

Seeing her today brought tears to my eyes.

I envision loving and hugging on her.

Presley giving her sweet kisses.

The girls jumping on Daddy's back to wrestle.

Lots of love.

Loads of hugs.

Tons of kisses.

A home filled with so much happiness.

And a Mommy who will love to watch

her children play, grow and discover the World.

Sneak Peek

Get your first glance here of Miss Emerson:

As soon as the image went to 4D mode I thought

she looks like her big sister.

We were only able to get a few profile shots

because just like her Big Sister

she kept her little hands by her face.

House for sale

Presley is so excited, she is going to be a big sister.

She has always wanted to be a big sister and looks forward to

sharing all her toys with her new sibling.

Josh and I are also thrilled to be growing our family.

We would like to take this opportunity to give you, your

first glance at our little "bun in the oven".

Meet our Daughter:

Emerson MacKenzie

Little sister to Presley Morgan

Heiress to her 50+ pairs of shoes

Due 01/03/2011

The Big 5-0

What do you do when Grandpa turns 50?

Have a big party of course!

Then when the cake is cut

(with all of the black icing)

Mamma takes the opportunity

to smear a mustache on the little ones face.

Don't worry she thought is was funny

as did I.

Then she of course ate her cake.

Beach Beauty

Aunt Nora came for a visit.

So, we of course went to the beach.

This was the first time Presley has been since she has

mastered her walking.

She played in the sand very little.

She preferred to walk along the shore.

Occasionally, letting the waves crash against her

little legs.

I'm glad we had this time

and that I took lots of pictures

I worry about the future of our

gorgeous beaches.

First Birthday Photo Shoot

It was Fun

She's so Sweet

Life really is such a Treat!

A couple days after the party

We loaded up with leftover decorations,

cupcakes and a few outfits

And headed over to my favorite photographers house.

These are a few pictures from the fun.

(this really is jsut a sample)

Love to all!
