It's a GIRL!!

If you haven't heard we are having a GIRL! She is due Feb. 26, 2012. We couldn't be more excited. She was a little uncooperative during the ultrasound on Oct. 12th so we are scheduled to have another one Nov. 10th and hopefully they will be able to get all the measurements they need and we will get to see our sweet angel once again. Brylee Taite and Emily are very excited for a baby sister too! Now we are in search of nursery furniture and bedding.

So since it has been awhile, I am currently 22 weeks pregnant. I have experienced extreme nausea with this one but I was not sick like I was with Brylee, just a walking case of nausea for 3 months. I am feeling good, with only headaches for the most part and very tired. She has begun kicking and moving around a lot over the last few weeks. I have only gained 1lb so far and Dr. Moore is very pleased with that. I am sure that I will blow up soon, but let's face it she had plenty of room to grow up until now (LOL)!

Thanks for checking in and I will try to keep this up to date.

We are also in search of the perfect name for this little one... any suggestions??

The girls are doing well. Ms. Brylee Taite is taking dance and she loves it. Twice a week she has ballet and tap. Emily is back at school and made 2nd honor roll!! I have two of the most wonderful girls in the universe.

Check out my newest blog. Man it has been a while since I last posted on here. Wish me luck.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Hope you all had a wonderful Halloween. We cut out travels short Saturday night because Brylee got a little to hot in her Giraffe costume and got sick or as she calls it burped on her giraffe and boots. She was good to go after that but was running a little fever so we made sure Emily had plenty of candy visited a few more peeps and headed to Grandmas. By the time we made it there she was cooled off and sporting her skeleton PJ's. Emily transformed into a devil for the trick or treating night. And I must say she was was one cute devil. The girls had a really good time and came home with a ton of candy.

We also got 2 kittens on Sunday, so meet the newest members of the Reese Family - Mr. Darcy & Mr. Bingley.

Love to All! Have a GREAT week!

New House!

We are moved in and loving the country life. We are having a blast out here and have lots of projects left to do. The shed is almost complete and we are moving from one thing to another. We need to get some gravel for the driveway and some new linoleum in the kitchen and bathrooms. So if you know anyone let me know. We are looking for some of the "remnant" (leftover stuff from another job)linoleum for the bathrooms because it is really cheap. We finished the rock garden and are about to start on the front of the house. Lots to do but we are loving every minute of it! The girls and I mean all four of them are happier than ever.

WAY TO GO KATEY LEIGH DARNELL! 3rd runner up at the Fair Pageant tonight. Pics to come. (I forgot my camera so Neesie will have to give me some.)





We are less than a week away from the closing so I will post a pic of the house for Aunt Patsy. I haven't done it yet because I was so terrified I might jinx it. We are just about finished with the painting and then we have to fix the deck and fence in the yard. After that we should be ready to MOVE IN!
Anyone interested in helping, give us a call. We will supply pizza, beer, and if it is way hot outside we will head over to the pool for a cool down!

Mama and Brian painted Emily's room today and it is gorgeous. One more coat for Brylee's room (remind me to never agree to a yellow room again, we are on our 3rd coat!) a small area in the hallway and laundry room and we should be good. The appliances were delivered Friday and need to be installed but they look great. We love them. We are adding a second set of steps to the deck and fencing in the backyard. We eventually want to extend the deck but that will have to wait a bit. We plan to line the back yard with trees so that we have all the privacy we want. It is sooooo quiet and peaceful out there and it just feels like home to me. We are planning to get the girls a tire swing for the tree out front. We are all super excited, but not looking forward to packing. Which by the way I guess I should go do some of since Brylee is asleep. More updates to come. Love to All!

Well, we are getting ready for the move!!! Brian, me, and Mama painted the kitchen, Brylee's room, and our bedroom this weekend in the new house and we have lots of painting left to do before we move. The mortgage papers are signed and everything looks great according to everyone there. We are set to close July 24th and will need to be out of our house by Aug. 1st. We are very excited.

Gramps was admitted to the hospital on Friday. He had one (possibly two) mini strokes. He has been moved to the Lynchburg Nursing Home as of today. He seems to be in good spirits so hopefully he will be back home soon. Thanks for all the prayers, please keep'em coming.

We had a great 4th, Brylee loved the firecrackers. We missed Robyn, Kerry, and Anna Claire this year at the pool and cookout. AC has been running some very high fevers and went to the Dr. today and has the viral case of strep throat. Poor Lil' girl! I know her Mommy is probably worn out as well. Please remember them in your prayers also.

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend!

Love You All!

SHEWWWW... What a weekend!

We have had a FUN weekend! We got Emily early on Friday and all headed over the the 'Boro for Brylee's 18 month checkup. She got three shots and checked out well. The Dr. said she was a petite little girl but was very healthy and smart. She weighs about 21lbs and is 30.5 inches long.

We have played with kittens at Nanny and Papa's, went to church, and got tattoo's. We swam at the pool and both girls jumped off the diving board! Emily got a new fish named Al and Brylee and Daddy watched the race together. Here are a few pics of the weekend.

We have contract on the house and are scheduled to close July 22nd. Please keep us in your prayers. Love to all!
