Bailee's Birthday!!!

So many girls(couple boys too!) Silly Bailee


Daddy Montana

Well Bailee's birthday was last friday the 27th and we had so much fun. we started the day off with our first trip to the dentist(I know I'm the meanest mom to take my kids to the dentist on their b day) but thats the day it fell on so what could i do. Anyway that was fun Bryce did awesome and has no issues yet with his teeth. But Bailee has a little gag reflex problem and they had a really hard time getting the exrays and finally gave up. but other than that she did really good.

Then at 2:30 we had 7 other 6 year olds come over for a swim party, it was soo much fun..man those girls have so much energy I wish i could bottle it up and use a little bit every day. then after swimming we went inside and had yummy cake and icecream and believe it or not the kids ate all the icecream and cake!!! then it was present time and that was fun too, the girls would see each present and start yelling out what they thought it would be, it was pretty funny.

One of the presents Bailee got was a Hannah montana wig and every single person had to try it on of course ....including mike I like to call him "Daddy Montana" I think it fits don't you?

Then at the end of the night we took Bailee to her favorite restraunt Red robin and met my parents and my sister and her fiance there. all in all it was a chaotic, fun, busy day!!

update on baby #3

Well we had another ultrasound and doctor appt on Tuesday and everything went really well. The ultrasound was the cutest!! There was actually a baby in there with a really strong heartbeat and everything was still shaped right and measured perfect. My due date is officially January 31st, we are sooooooooo beyond excited about this sweet baby. My doctor said everything looks so good that we dont have to go back for 4 weeks...AHHHHH I've got a little anxiety about that but I'm trying to just act like i did with Bailee and Bryce and not freak out. My morning sickness is really hard to deal with, i just feel crappy pretty much at all times. But this is what i signed up for so im taking it.

Thank you guys for all your support and prayers, I really need all i can get at this time in my life. Im really excited to see what the future hold for our Porter family!!!

Bryce is 3!!!

Well today is Bryces birthday. we had his party on saturday, so he doesnt actually know that his birthday is today(i thought it would confuse him) but I have thought about it all day that my precious baby boy is growing up!! He is such a funny kid and has such a great sense of humor. I love his little thoughts and his sayings. He is also very emotional and sensitive, sometimes thats good and sometimes it's bad. But Happy birthday Bryce we love you!!!!

Busy!!

I have been out of the loop for a while but I'm back... Mike finally made it home from scout camp and he had a lot a fun, he did come back pretty sore though, he hiked 50+ miles!! I'm soo proud of him and thankful for his service for those boys.

The last week Bailee started the summer reading program at school and thats fun for her. It's nice because she only has to go for three hours and the first day she was shocked when I was there to pick her up already. She kept saying the rest of the day, " Is that what first grade is gonna be like?" but we had to burst her bubble and tell her no way. But she is enjoying summer school especially because they get to have snacks a few times in the day. One of her best friends Alex is in the class with her so that makes it better too of course.

The kids also started swimming lessons last week and Bailee loves every minute of it. For the first 3 days Bryce screamed his head off the entire 30 mins!!! and tried to get out of the pool numerous times and finally on the last day of that week he did perfect! I'm soo proud of him for over coming his fear a little bit. But is Monday morning and we have swimming lessons again to day and one of the first things out of his mouth this morning was that he did not want to go to swim lessons so we'll see how this week ends!!

I also had a doctor appt and they did an ultrasound and everything is grwoing the way it should. I go back next tues for another ultrasound and by then we will see a heartbeat. So I will try to keep myself busy this week to keep my mind off of it. With everything I've gone through in the past, I'm trying to just take it one step at a time and not get so anxiety filled, I'm doing a pretty good job. I'm not as stressed this time around. The nausia has started to kick in full force today!! yayay I actually like it but hate it at the same time. It at least gives me the idea that everything is moving in the right direction, as long as I'm feeling crappy than it's a good sign. So thats it for last week, now its just another week of the same thing so it will be busy!!
