Birthday dinner #3 at The Cheesecake Factory. Thanks Tori and Lisa!

Emmy's new ADORABLE kitchen! I love it as much as she does :) Yesterday we went to Sugarhouse Park and fed the ducks.

Happy Birthday to us! We were born on the EXACT same day just 4 years apart.

Happy Birthday Bud!

Hanging out with my sisters.

Congrats Emily! Only 4 weeks left!

This weekend was packed with fun except for Friday night. I was cleaning like a mad woman because I had a baby shower at my house the following day. Cleaning when I am pregnant is horrible! I notice every little thing and HAVE to get it done. Anyway, I started getting contractions every 6 min. After about 3 hours I called my Dr and he said go into labor and delivery. I didn't think they were bad enough to go in so I laid down and had Matt clean. Sure enough they were gone the next morning and everything was fine. The moral of the story is I need a cleaning lady :) ha ha jk.

Saturday my friend Randi and I threw our good friend Emily a shower. She is having a little girl in 4 weeks! I can believe how fast time flies! She was the first one other then Matt to know I was pregnant and I remember her only being about 12 weeks. Now she is due in a month! Congrats Emily I am so excited for you guys!!! While I was having the shower Matt took Emmy swimming. When they got home we had a nice relaxing evening at home. There is nothing better then hanging out with my little family on a Saturday night.

Sunday my dad and his girlfriend had us over for my 4th birthday dinner. I totally got spoiled this year. Thank you to everyone who made my birthday so great! My best friends in the world Tori and Lisa also took me to dinner at The Cheesecake Factory last week. Can you say YUMMY?? Thanks guys I love you!

Yesterday I took Emmy to see the ducks at Sugarhouse park with my grandma. She loved them and is not scared at all. She likes to hold the food and let the ducks eat right out of her hands instead of throwing the bread. I just love her!!!! After the park we went and got an ice cream cone. She was so excited that we got her own and that is was pink and purple.

We also FINALLY got Emmy a play kitchen last week. I was looking to get her one for her birthday in January but the one I wanted was out of stock. After numerous months of looking I found a lady on KSL who had a brand new one for a GREAT price!Emmy loves it and can not get enough of it. I love watching her play :) She is such a girly girl!

Tomorrow we are getting a new freezer. I am so excited! I don't know why I am blogging about this but lately I have had such a strong feeling of the need for food storage. I have always felt so overwhelmed even thinking about starting a food storage supply but the past couple of months things have come so easy for me. I am a FREAK about bargain shopping. When I see a good deal on something we eat I buy a few extra of the items and store them. I can not believe how much food storage we have already gotten. I am so glad we have finally decided to commit ourselves to this. Wish us luck!

I am sorry to all of you who actually read long, all over the place, pointless post :)

Zoo Day

Off to the zoo! The kids with the monkey! The monkey love them!

Mommy and Emmy!

Emmy loves the boys! She is always holding their hands, hugging and kissing them

Loving the giraffes.

Getting ready for our train ride. YEAH!

Today was a long day at the zoo! We went with our playgroup. Emmy LOVES the zoo. It is her 2nd time in 3 weeks. She really likes all the animals. I cant believe how big my little girl is getting! Thanks to everyone who went with us today. We had a blast!

Announcement

I FINALLY GOT A NEW CAMERA!!!! TOMORROW WILL BE A GREAT DAY AT THE ZOO WITH LOTS OF PICTURES!

Life Lately

So I still have not gotten a new camera and it is driving me CRAZY! I have missed so many great things and I feel like Emmy is growing so fast. She has been potty trained for about 2 months now and has done really great the past 2 weeks. She says the funniest things and is picking up so much. Her new thing is " Mom this is dilishious" she means delicious and she is so funny when she says it. She LOVES playing with her friends and asks me everyday to see them. She thinks if she says " I share my toys" then I will let her play. We have been working on sharing and she is doing much better! Her hair is WILD! I cant believe I have a 2 year old with a blond Afro! She is getting so big and I really need to get a new camera so I can take pictures!!!

Matt has not been working as much lately and it is so nice to have him home at a decent hour! We have been trying to get out and do some fun things as a family the past few weeks and it has been so much fun! We went to the zoo a few weeks ago and Emmy LOVED it! Still to this day she talks about it! We also went swimming at the Lehi pool and I think Matt and Emmy were in heaven! On Saturday we went to Wheeler Farm and let Emmy ride the pony. They are so fun to be with! I NEED A CAMERA!

My birthday was a blast! Matt took the day off and we did some shopping. I was so excited because we went to Gap and they were having 25% off the clearance stuff. I got Emmy and the baby some cute clothes! Today we had a birthday dinner at my moms house. We ate dinner and opened presents. It was a blast!Thank you to all of you who made my birthday so special!

Pregnancy has been so hard this time around. I loved being pregnant with Emmy and this time I have been in so much pain. I finally gained weight! In fact I am scared to go to my Dr. appointment on Wednesday because I am pretty sure I have gained 6+ pounds this month instead of the recommended 4. Oh well life goes on! Sleeping has been a Bi&%h lately! I am sorry I don't know how else to explain it! I literally sleep 2 hours a night because I am so uncomfortable! I don't know how I am going to make it another 3 1/2 months!!! The other night I was laying in my bed tossing and turning. My stomach was bothering me and I truly convinced myself that I had the Swine Flu and was going to die from it. I AM CRAZY!!! First of all I know all there is to know about the stupid flu going around and I really don't have anything to be worried about. Second I was not even sick!!!! I AM LOSING MY MIND! I feel so bad for Matt because I don't even want to be touched and all of you who know my husband knows he LOVES cuddling at night. I guess I just need to be grateful and embrace pregnancy like I did last time!

Well there is our life lately in a wrap! Sorry no pictures hopefully we will order a camera soon!

Oh Baby!

2o weeks and counting!

Pregnancy has been ok so far. I get braxton hicks contractions ALL the time. They bumped my due date up a few days!!! I wish I felt as good as I did last time! I still have not gotten back to my pre-pregnancy weight from my morning sickness and I feel achy all the time. I don't know how I am going to carry this baby another 20 weeks! I am going to be the most annoying pregnant person at 30+ weeks! Matt can feel the baby moving when he touches my tummy and loves it.

We got the baby bedding and painted the walls. I love it! I will post pictures as soon as I get all the accessories up. Emmy loves her baby brothers room she sits there and says " baby Kyson's room" she loves showing people, folding his clothes and playing in there. She is getting so big!

Noting new is going on at the Crowley house. I got some flowers and planted them in my window boxes and in my flower beds! I love summer!!! Poor Emmy has been sick with a cold so we are visiting the Dr today to make sure she does not have a ear infection. Matt has been great and things are finally slowing down at work. Now he gets to study for the GMAT and finish the basement. He is a busy boy! Life is good today.

CRAVINGS!!!

I just have to blog about how strange this pregnancy has been. First of all I still am 4 pounds less then when I started. I crave the strangest food in the world and my temper is not to be messed with.
When I was pregnant with Emmy I was not sick, I did not crave anything and for the most part I think I was a very nice wife. NOT THIS TIME! I was sicker then a dog until I was 13 weeks. I am so picky about food lately it is not even funny. I have eaten 2 bags of peanut M&M's this past week and I just got a HUGE bag at Costco. Can you say HUGE BUM!!! That is what I am going to have if I don't keep my mouth closed. I go through a huge case of Costco strawberries in 4 days pretty much all by myself. I hate chips, fast food, Turkey YUCK! Hamburger... The list goes on and on. All I can say is there is no doubting that this little guy is Matt's. Matt is loving all of his favorite foods in the house lately. WHY? Because I am graving them. It is really strange.I hope the good food makes up for what a Bi$#h I have been lately. I cant stand to be touched, nagged or even talked to lately. I can process in my head how mean I am but I really can not seem to be nice for the life of me.

Dear Husband,
Don't worry one day the Witch in your wives growing body will leave and your sweet wife will come back. For the next little while please don't leave me :) I love you!
Love
Teisha aka "THE WITCH"

IT'S A ...

IT"S A BOY!!!!!!!

We are so excited to have a little baby boy! We will have one of each. It is amazing how different this baby was even watching him on the ultrasound. Emmy was so active and was bouncing everywhere with her first ultrasound. This little guy was so calm and just sat there. He was upside down and was so calm. We are so excited!!!
