Callie's almost here!!!!

Callie will be here in less than 2 days!!!

The C-Section is scheduled for Thursday at 8:30 am. We are sooo excited and can't wait to see our second little princess. It will be so interesting to see if Karisse and Callie look alike or not.

My brothers and I all favor and it is very obvious that we are all related. On the other hand Christy and her sister don't look alike.

I will post some pictures of our new little princess as soon as I can after the big event.

8 days!!

Callie will be here in 8 days!!!!

It is still kinda weird to think that we are responsible for the life of a child and it is kinda freaking me out a little that in 8 days we are going to be responsible for the life of 2 children.

Don't get me wrong. I love being a Dad and I would not give it up for the world. I can't wait to meet my little Callie for the first time. Yet it still kinda freaks me out.

That said let me end by saying, 8 days!! WOOHOO

Swimming

Karisse and I went "swimming" in her pool in the back yard yesterday. We had a good time. Here are a few pics. Karisse thought I needed to wear her hat, so here I am in her cute pink flowered hat.

We also gave Karisse some big boobies and a bubble booty using her balls she plays with in the pool. It is super cute.

Here is a video of Karisse doing a little Booty Dance!

Camping at Natural Tunnel State Park

We left on Saturday and took our first camping trip in the "new" camper. We went to Natural Tunnel State Park in Virginia. Karisse was sooo excited about sleeping in the camper on her bed, until it was actually time to go to bed. She sleeps on the top bunk with a "gate" made by Grandpa. By the time we left today she was loving it. We would ask where do you sleep and she would say "on top". Last night when we were putting her to bed she said "on top, gate up". In the mornings she would wake up and holler Mommy or Daddy and when we got back there she would say "get me out".

Saturday when we got there Christy had out the clothes pins hanging lights. She started to hook one on Karisse and she yelled no no no. Christy clipped it on her shirt anyway and then she started yelling more more and telling Christy where to clip them. Here is the result:







We spent a lot of the time just hanging out and relaxing. Since we are working on potty training right now Karisse spent a lot of time sitting on the potty.










Yesterday we spent most of the day at the pool. They have a really nice pool. After our swim Karisse kept saying "I swim in big pool". She was not sure about using her pool float at first, but when she got used to it she loved it.


Ready to go!



Lovin her Ladybug Float!
Warming up in the sun and lookin cool!

After her nap (which was surprisingly short) we went to the playground. Karisse was quite disappointed that there were no swings (who ever heard of a playground without swings), but she had a good time on the slides and crawling through the tubes and up and down the steps and ladders.



Christy and I both brought hats to wear at the pool, (but we left them in the camper when we went to the pool). When we got home today and started unloading the camper Karisse found our hats and wanted to wear them both.
We had a great time relaxing and spending some time together, just the three of us, before it becomes the four of us. (in 23 days) We also enjoyed trying out the new camper. We really enjoyed it. It is nice having a bed for Karisse that is not also our kitchen table.

No puking!!!

Karisse is apparently feeling better. She has not puked since Sunday night. She had also had some problems from the other end for several days too, but she has not had that problem since Monday afternoon. So, hopefully this means she is all better. Thanks for the prayers!

Karisse loves Veggie Tales

Karisse wanted to watch Veggie Tales this afternoon. We had not watched Veggie Tales recently, but she has watched it at her Nana's. I did not realize how much she loves it. Here is a video of her enthralled and singing along with the theme song. (turn up the volume it is not very loud)

As we are sitting here watching, she is saying "My Veggie Tales, I watchin it."
