half way there!!!

Wow... I cannot believe how fast this pregnancy is flying by! I am already 20 weeks along which marks the half way point!!! Baby Wake is about the size of a banana right now measuring in at about 10.5 ounces and 10 inches long! I feel our baby boy moving around all day long and love it just as much as when I felt Guess move in my tummy! It never gets old! So anyways...I had winn snap a quick pregnancy picture before going into work the other day to document my half way mark! (I take pregnancy pictures every 5 weeks or so)...And of course I cannot have a post without a picture of this cute little man! We have bought some random little things for baby Wake and Guess goes and finds them and gives them loves and kisses! So stinkin' cute! So here he is hugging a couple of onesies we bought for baby Wake!We are just too excited to meet baby Wake in a few short months!

oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!!!

We are having ANOTHER boy!!! I am officially feeling really outnumbered now with 3 boys and 1 girl in our house! But honestly, I would not have it any other way!!! We really hoped for another boy and we cannot even explain how excited we are that baby #2 is another sweet but crazy little man! We would have been grateful for a baby boy or girl but we are just beyond excited for Guess to have a little bother to pick on...i mean play with!!! We are so grateful that baby boy #2 is healthy and everything is looking good. Our appointment was an interesting one and so I will explain after a couple of pictures! Here is the proof that there is definitely a little boy in my tummy!Our family visiting Santa at the North Pole after finding out another little boy will be joining our family in May 2012!Another picture of Wake Winn Workman (that will be his name by the way!)And this last picture is a little late seeing how I am now 18 weeks along and this is from 15 weeks but at least you can see that I am definitely starting to look pregnant. (Or maybe I just look even more fat now but I am going to say that I look pregnant instead! ha!) By the way, I now have an official due date of May 29, 2012!Ok so about our appointment real quick...we had originally planned to bring two boxes with a boy outfit in one and a girl outfit in the other because our appointment was on Dec. 20th and we wanted to wait to find out on Christmas morning! So we had the boxes all set up and everything and my Dr. was having the hardest time figuring out the gender because the umbilical cord was right between the baby's legs. So seriously more than a half hour later we still had no gender determined and my Dr. was not sure if he was going to be able to find out at this appointment. So we were a little disappointed because we really wanted to find out Christmas morning. Well as we were getting ready to leave, my Dr. told me that he forgot to ask if I wanted any pictures of the baby. I definitely wanted some pictures so we started up another ultrasound and the Dr. noticed right away that the umbilical cord had moved...unfortunately I noticed as well and kinda blurted out that it was a boy before remembering that it was suppose to be a surprise! So we knew the day of our appointment that a sweet little boy would be joining our family but we waited until Christmas to tell everyone else! Having another little boy come to our family has been all that Winn and I have been able to talk about lately. It is especially cute when I hear Winn talking to Guess and saying things like "We are going to have to teach Wake how to play baseball and swing a golf club when he comes!" or "We are going to gang up on mom and tickle her good when your little brother gets here!" It makes me laugh and love the fact that I am in a house full of boys! So bring on the baseball games and dirt because we are beyond excited to now have two little gentlemen in our family!!!

i'm a PROUD wife!!!

Many of you may have already heard but my wonderful and amazing husband got accepted into PT school at AT STILL University!!! This is an amazing thing because they have over 700 applicants and only 62 students who are accepted! Winn graduates from ASU in May with his Bachelor's in Exercise & Wellness and starts graduate school in August where after three long years he will have his Doctorate in Physical Therapy! Oh my goodness I cannot even express how proud I am of Winn and all of the HARD work he has had to do to get to this point in his education! He told me the other night that he can actually see a light at the end of his "schooling" tunnel but really he has not even begun the hard stuff yet! I know he has a LONG road ahead of him and I will basically be a single mom for the next three years but in the end it will all be worth it when he is a Physical Therapist! The best part about all of this is that the school is right here in Mesa, AZ and so we will not have to move across the country like we had originally planned! We are just SO thankful and blessed for this WONDERFUL opportunity! Ok, I will stop sharing my excitement now!

This was Winn on the morning of his ATSU interveiw! Doesn't he look SO handsome!!!

november 2011...

So the first part of november consisted of a trip to Flagstaff with some of our friends to visit the NAU campus and check our their physical therapy program (just in case you didn't know, Winn has been applying to PT schools around the country for the last few months). Anyways...while we were up there, our friends showed us around and we found some snow to play in!Thanks Mike and Ashley for showing us around Flagstaff and for the fun time!

Next up was Thanksgiving...we did things a little differently this year and my family celebrated Thanksgiving the night before with a dinner feast! My mom did a great job with the whole thing and it was so fun to spend time with my family. My brothers and their families were not able to make it from Utah this year and so we missed them :( maybe next time!
Guess with his "cheesy" smile!Then the next day (actual Thanksgiving day) was spent with my husband's family! Once again we had a feast and it was delicious! Guess had so much fun playing with his cousins!So funny story...Guess was suppose to be just playing with his cousins when we found him at the table eating a nice piece of pie that someone left on the table. He had no problem finishing every bite of that pie!:)On Thanksgiving day, Guess missed his nap which apparently took a toll on him! He walked over to me, sat on my belly, and fell over forward in a dead sleep! He never ever falls asleep on me so I knew he had to have been exhausted from playing all day long and skipping his nap!So both of our Thanksgiving feasts were so delicious and so much fun! Thanks to all our family for making this Thanksgiving a great one!

The next morning, Guess decided to scare mom and dad to death and wouldn't walk at all. He wouldn't even put any weight on his legs and this scared the crap out of us. So I kind of examined his little legs and realized that it was his right ankle that was causing him so much pain. We decided to take him to urgent care after we ate some breakfast, just to make sure nothing was broken. This is Guess eating some waffles with his ankle elevated...poor boy was in so much pain :(In the waiting room...like father like son reading none other than a GOLF magazine! ha... sometimes it is scary how alike these two are!So his x-rays came back perfectly fine and the dr. said it was a sprained ankle which is what we assumed in the first place. Guess was jumping on the trampoline the day before so we figured that is how he did it...The poor boy wouldn't walk at all that day and crawled everywhere! The next morning he was totally fine again...wearing daddy's shoes!Then we went to watch winn's nephew play baseball...these pics were just too cute not to post! And as you can see he is back to his normal self with no more pain in his ankle! Almost wants to make us think he was faking the whole thing and thought it would be funny to make mom and dad wait 3 hours at urgent care on dad's only friday off of work! Guess we will never know!So that was basically our november in a nutshell! Oh and I almost forgot...I also took my national boards and PASSED them!!! Whoo-hoo! Just waiting for my license to come in the mail now and I will be a legit PTA!

halloween 2011...

This is my LAST catch up post! Yay! So for halloween we did a lot of fun things this year! We carved pumpkins, went to a few different trunk-or-treats, and then went trick-or-treating after eating soup bowls (yum-yum) for dinner at my parents on halloween night! So below are just the pictures from all our festivities!

Pumpkin carving...Helping daddy clean out the pumpkin...So I had HORRIBLE allergies that night and that is why my eyes are half open/half closed...Sarah and her pumpkin...Ashley and Chad and their pumpkins...(and yes ashley is wearing one-piece footie pajamas!)Guess was so proud of the pumpkin we made!Trunk-or-Treat #1 (My sister and brother-in-laws ward)...I didn't want Guess to wear his real costume yet because it was rainy and muddy so I threw this little sparky number together in about 5 minutes. Wasn't too hard since he was sparky last year! His real halloween costume this year is later on in this post!Trunk-or-Treat #2 (Our ward)...Guess and his friend Peyton...Trunk-or-Treat #3 (My parents ward)...Guess found some popcorn on the ground and literally ate about half of that pile...gross I know!Winn wanted to see if he could still jump over Guess...luckily he still can!My dad had to have his face as the target in the pie throwing contest and my sister Ashley got him pretty good in this picture!Guess loved asking for candy from everyone!He also insisted on carrying his bucket everywhere...but as you can see it got a little too heavy with all that candy!Winn got a hold of the camera and decided he needed to take a picture of every face that he possibly knew how to make!Guess and papa!Worn out from asking for all that candy!Halloween night...we all took turns taking him up to the doors...It took five people to take one little boy trick-or-treating! Chad is cut off in this picture but thats is all of us who took Guess trick-or-treating! Winn had too much homework to do that night so he couldn't go :(The loot!So now I am officially all caught up on my blog! yay!
