Trooper Thompson

Here is my cool older brother at his graduation from the Police Academy last week. We are so excited for him and also want to tell him Happy Birthday yesterday. Good luck with the HP training this next week and a half! {and remember you are being filmed so watch what you say}

37 weeks

37 weeks tomorrow. I can't believe how little time we have left. I had Laralee at 38 weeks so reality is starting to set in. I should probably pack a bag or something. Ryan and I are both totally excited to find out all about this new little one. We'll keep you updated!!

36 weeks

Well I haven't been very good with taking belly pictures this pregnancy. I guess some things just get pushed aside when you have an almost 2 year old running {or skipping} around. But for all those who have been asking this is what my belly has grown too. I wish I could give a birds eye view because that really shows how much I've grown. This baby is VERY wiggly, it doesn't really kick just move and shift around a lot.

I went to the Dr. this morning and nothing is happening yet, but the head is down. {which doesn't mean much cuz' L turned the last week} We are very excited but haven't really done anything to get ready, which is just like Ryan and I. My mom comes next week and I'm very excited for that too!! She will be a big help with L since Ryan's parents will be in FL when the baby is due.

I'll try to take a picture once a week for these last few to post. Ryan will post all about the new little one once it gets here. {name, gender and pics} I'm thinking girl and Ryan is thinking boy so we'll see who's right.

Our Garden

We have decided to start a garden this year. Ryan has been busy tilling and preparing the area so we can plant. I am so excited to have our own vegetables to pick rather than buying them at the store. We are going to plant tomatoes, corn, zucchini, lettuce, potatoes, broccoli and beans. Hopefully we have more of a green thumb than black. Ryan borrowed the neighbors plow this morning so my girls and I went out to watch and enjoy the sun.

Half way there...

I think Ryan had a little too much fun playing "Farmer Brown"

Daisy enjoying the shade. She is really the best dog. So patient and loving with Laralee. I really don't know what I would do without my Daisy!

Laralee actually took this picture all by herself. I was totally impressed that she caught Ryan in the frame.

Waving to Daddy.

Our little Nascar fan. Ryan showed her that you can listen to music with these so she wants to wear them all the time. She'll even get up and dance if the music is right.
