Well, since I last posted, we've celebrated many things. To name a few: Andy's birthday (the big 25!), mother's day, the ever pressing task of building your own home and the fact that this cute little face will get to be a big sister! We're having another baby, due on November 9 (my mom's b-day) and we are ecstatic!! I am 15 1/2 wks and we'll find out what we're having June 16.
In other news, the house is still alive and kickin'. We got our cabinets in and they look awesome! It's fun to see the final aspects come together. Andy continues to work full time as an internal auditor and spends every night and every Saturday at the house. He is currently working on the wood floor, siding, and painting the molding. He works EXTREMELY hard, does not get stressed and always remains calm. With everything on his plate he continues to be a fantastic dad and amazing husband! He is so very patient with my pregnancy orneriness. I love him to death.
I also got the chance to get out and spend some quality time with these lovely ladies (minus Michelle. You just live too dang far away.) Andy took a night off at the house to watch Alli. We left early afternoon, did some shopping, ate dinner and went to Wicked. I must say, it was wicked awesome. No pun intended. The music, the lights, the costumes, the singing! It was the fastest 2 hrs and 45 min of my life. I recommend it to anybody who gets the chance to go.
As for Miss A, she never fails to make us laugh, is quick as a whip, and is the cutest thing in the world! She now sleeps fantastically in a big girl bed and loves to show people her room at the new house. Apparently the new baby will sleep in the closet of the other bedroom. Maybe she has memories of when she slept in a closet and thinks that's just normal practice for babies. She talks like crazy and is a pro at singing Happy Birthday. She knows everybody's name at Day Care, even better than me I'm afraid, and loves babies. She will be such a good big sister.

I spend my days working, neglecting laundry, playing with Alli, taking dinner to Andy, neglecting laundry, going to bed as early as I can, and neglecting laundry. I'm going for the world record. Guinness anyone? I've been feeling pretty good besides the second trimester headaches. I'm also missing my husband. Our only link of communication is via e-mail. We HAVE managed to go on two dates since our anniversary. One of which was going to Wal-mart and the other was seeing X-men origins. I was very excited about the last one and was not disappointed. Well, how could anyone be disappointed with the Hugh? It was amazing. I am a HUGE X-men fan and I loved it! Oh, and if the Hugh doesn't do it for you, we'll take a little Ryan Reynolds on the side. Well, that's all for now. My next post will be in approximately 3 months.
P.S. Will somebody please find me a cute baby ticker? I just don't have the time to find one. I would greatly appreciate it.

Ha. I love the catch up post Mallory! From what I can see your house looks AWESOME! I'm sad we won't be there for grand unveiling. However, we'll just have to make our way over once we're home. Alli is such a cutie, and I'm so excited she is going to be a big sister. It's good to hear you guys are doing so good, hope you continue to feel as good as possible!! Try not to make it another 3 months...Texas days can get kinda slow. :)
I love those pics of my little "blue-eyed" baby girl! And I LOVE the cabinets!!! I can't believe I haven't been over to see them IRL.

The cabinets are awesome, those pictures of Alli are soo cute, We're excited for your little one and our guy to be friends, and What!? You went to Wicked?!? I loved it too. I'm glad you got to go!

Hey Mal! It's good to see you and what you have been up to!! Congrats on the bun in the oven, I'm sure whatever the gender of this one, it will be just as adorable as your little princess!
I am glad you finally posted something! Your house looks great and all of your hubby's hard work will pay off. It took Skylar 13 months to build our house because he was working full time too and I remember all too well what it was like to feel like a single mom all the time but it's worth it!
I didn't know you were pregnant! Congrats! I know I am only a week and half into the two kids life but it's not as hard as you think. I am so excited for you two! I hope you are feeling okay and that you have a healthy little baby.
