Posts, posts, posts!
OK, I just posted 3 new posts with lots of pictures! Make sure to scroll down to see all of them!
Day in the City
Every now and again, I love to go into the city and do the tourist thing. On this day, we meet up with Bud's sister and her husband for Fleet Week. We had planned to watch the Blue Angels and then go on an Alcatraz tour since Bud has never been on one! I know, weird huh? Well, we got there and they were all sold out, so we are planning on doing a big family trip to tour Alcatraz with his parents and my mom.
So, instead of Alcatraz, we just went into the Aquarium so Izzy can see all the fun things under water.
We started out at Pier 39 to look at the sea lions and wait to watch the Blue Angels
We put Izzy's leash on for the first time and she enjoyed it. But she quickly learned that she can lean far forward and she wouldn't fall down. So there was a lot of "limp baby".
The air show
Blue Angels
Izzy liked the Aquarium and hanging on the ropes
Just some fun pictures I captured
Petting the sting rays
She really wasn't sure what to do here
This one kept coming out to say Hello!
Izzy thought it was great!
Her leash is still a little big for her
After a long day with basically no nap, this little one is out! This was after eating a Joe's Crab Shack and stopping to get some homemade ice cream that was absolutely delicious!
At the end of our day eating ice cream! I love my family!

Izzy's PRE-preschool class
Izzy is in a PRE-preschool class one day a week for 2 hours. It is for 12-18 months toddlers and Izzy is the second to youngest one there. AND she is probably the most advanced one. I don't say that to brag, I'm just being very honest. I go with her and stay and we play, learn, have snacks and play some more. The moms/parents learn a thing or two as well. We have only been to one so far, but we love it! Izzy enjoys "running the place" and being VERY verbal throughout class. Here are some pictures of our time there.
"Seriously mom"?
Seriously Izzy?
"Seriously Lady?" (One of the other moms was trying to get her to come to her and this is what Izzy did. haha, she's funny)
Snack time

Pumpkins for Puntin
We ventured to the Clayton Pumpkin Patch the other day just for the fun of taking the pictures and letting Izzy rome around. We didn't stay too long, because it became SO hot that day. We couldn't stand it very long.
Here She is with daddy taking a moment to watch all the "big" kids walk by on their field trip.
So many to choose from. Which one do I pick up??
One day...
Our cute little scarecrow
Here kitty kitty kitty!
She found the worted pumpkins very interesting!
And here is the one we left with! Perfect size! Plus, they were ridiculously expensive, so we just choose the $1.50 one.

Baby #2
So I am now 13 weeks and feeling great! We went to have an ultrasound done yesterday to test for Down Syndrome and something else (can't remember). Here are some photos we were able to get.
Here "it" is stretching out. It's a bad picture, but we thought it was funny how "it" was totally stretching
Here "it" is facing downward
Stretching "it's" leg and bringing hand towards mouth
And, "it's" profile
So far, everyone is saying it will be a boy, but this is mostly because everyone either WANTS it to be a boy or thinks because we already have a girl, it has to be a boy this time. Here's what I think:
Mother knows best! It is still VERY much up in the air what it will be. It can honestly be either! And here's my thoughts on why:
*From the beginning, this pregnancy has been exactly the same so far. This could mean one of two things: A: it's another girl; B: I'm just really lucky!
*Sometimes I think I'm not lucky enough to have another girl, but then, just by thinking that makes me think I could be. I know, sounds like an oxymoron, but it makes sense to me.
*The heart rate is the same as Izzy's was in the womb.
*According to the Chinese calender predictor, it's a boy or a girl depending on the exact conception date. I'm not going to lie, I have no idea the exact date when I ovulate, so I had to do it with two different dates and because of that, I got two different answers. With Izzy, it was right saying it was a girl. So this time around, it's not helpful.
*I had 3 dreams when pregnant with Izzy and all three were about a girl. I never had any about a boy. My mother also had dreams when she was pregnant, but most significantly was when she was pregnant with her first. In her dream she saw and older girl and two younger boys. She then thought she would have a girl first and then two boys. It was actually the other way around and her dream was this: I was the girl, but because I was coming last, I was up in heaven handing down two boys first. SO, with that said, my dreams with Izzy could have meant one of two things: A: It was indicating 3 times that I was going to be having a girl; or B: It was like my moms and it was indicating that I will have 3 girls! Because only one dream I had with Izzy I can for certain verify that it was Izzy in my dream. The other two I have no idea.
*So far with this pregnancy I have only had one dream. It was a baby shower decorated in Pink and Purple.
With all that, I have no idea what we are having and to be honest, I don't care what anyone else dreams, thinks, invisions or has a feeling for what it is. Cause like I said, mom knows best and it can really go either way.
So, one more month till we know what we are having! We go in November 10Th. Which kinda sucks because it's on a Wednesday and we want to reveal what it is to everyone the same way we did with Izzy. The fancy cake way! However, we have church that night and would have to wait till Thursday night, but I don't know if we could hold it in that long! I guess we will have to. Or we'll have to have the technician right it down on a piece of paper and stick it in an envelope and Bud and I will open it before I make the cake. We will see.
