Sunday Sayings...

From the mouth of Max:

"Don't touch that hanger" -Max to a baby in a store.

"Don't boss her around" - Me to Max

"But, I'm a big brother!" -Max to Me... poor Lucy doesn't have a chance!

Judging by my last post...

There is no one out there that checks regularly. Or you are all like my mom and have yet to figure out how to make a comment!

So, 2011 is starting. WOW! I can't believe 2010 is gone. It seems like just yesterday we were celebrating Max's 3rd birthday and now we will start gearing up for his 4th! Crazy! (We won't mention the birthday I celebrated, I no longer celebrate birthday's I've decided)

My goal for 2011. Blog everyday here. Even if it is just a snippet of life. I have a little mama's guilt over my lack of chronicling Lucy's pregnancy. So, this will solve it. Plus give me a little mini-goal each day.

So, if you are out there... check back more frequently. My plan is to be here. A lot.

Happy New Year!!!

Are you out there?

I know I've been a bad blogging mommy and posts have been sporadic at best.

Life gets busy. Especially when you are 3 and expecting a baby sister. That is Max's excuse. I'm not sure what mine is.

So, I'm just wondering who is still reading this blog. If you are out there and are still checking in on the Nelson's, leave a comment. We (mostly me) are curious about who occasionally looks in on our family and see's what we are up to!

On another note. It is 60 degrees on this December day. Max and I are going to head outside. He loves the park and will be pleased as punch to take some time to explore our world. He got a new camera, so I'm going to let him take some pictures. Speaking of pictures. Here is one from our recent photo shoot. Our kiddo sure is cute :)

Pink is Coming

So, it is official. Our household will be getting a little pinker this spring.

Lane is scared, I'm a little worried when I remember myself as a teenager, and Max is in love with the idea of his little sister.

Our little family will be growing a little bit frillier and we can't wait to meet our Lucy in a few months.

Does the Blog Name Have to Change?

So, things are starting to look a little pink around our household.

There has been so speculation by the ultrasound technician that I am baking a sweet baby girl!

We are excited/nervous about this bit of news. We should have confirmation on December 20th, but until then we are contemplating pink, ruffles, and all the sweet fun that comes with a girl!

Max was thinking about the baby too. He wanted to know if it was a boy, a girl, or maybe it is a chocolate donut! I think he liked the idea of a chocolate donut the best :) :) :)

Wondering...

Baby 2 at 13.5 weeks.

Boy or Girl...

Blonde or Brunette...

Green or Brown...

Loud or Quiet...

Outgoing or Shy...

It will be such fun finding all those answers out. The only definite is that this baby will be much loved and will be the piece of our family that wasn't exactly missing, but definitely completes our puzzle.
