Birthday girl!

Sunday was Teagan's 2nd birthday! Sadly our whole family has been passing around a yucky respiratory infection, fevers, and coughs this last week.... Teagan was absolutely miserable on sunday so we just had a little family party here at the house, deciding not to share our germs with any other family or friends!I can't believe we're already here at '2' and Teagan is quickly turning into a big girl! She loved her new princess gear and reading chair, and has taken her new bubble mower out for a quick run around the yard a few times. All day she kept asking,"mommy, is it my happy birthday?" She talks so much now, its amazing and really funny to hear some of the things she comes up with!
Trying out her new princess shoes-

and earrings!
I've been so bad about updating these last few months, but hopefully will get a little better starting this week with our new addition! I'm scheduled for a c-section this thursday morning (2 days!) at 7am. Please say a prayer for our family this week that all goes well, and that everyone feels better soon!

Happy Valentines & CHD Awareness Day!

Valentine's Day is even more special now that we have one more reason to celebrate! This is the 2nd Valentines that we've celebrated not only the holiday but also CHD awareness day. Teagan is doing great and we couldn't be more proud of her. This Valentines we're praying for all families dealing with CHD's and celebrating another holiday with our little fighter!

Here are my two little 'love bugs' this morning in the kitchen. We're spending a rainy Valentine's at home baking treats, making crafts and taking some much needed naps!

Party of 5!

#4 #5!
This post is loooong overdue! But we are excited to announce that as of March 25th (or sooner!) the Maxwell house will officially be a party of 5! We are feeling completely blessed, excited, anxious, and overwhelmed all at the same time. I am 24 weeks already and feeling great- just getting big much faster than with Gavin or Teagan. I have had several ultrasounds and at the end of October had a fetal echo to check for any heart issues. This baby is HEART HEALTHY!! As soon as the tech put the wand to my belly and I saw 4 chambers I was relieved! I'm still having a hard time truly enjoying this pregnancy with many fears still lingering in the back of my mind, but knowing that we have a whole heart makes things much easier...

Here's a look a baby M Nov. 4th (19 weeks)

Its a BOY!

Tiny feet!
