Pee Pee in the Potty!

Today Aeraci went pee pee in the potty for the first time!!!! Yay! She also went poo poo. It's hard to believe my little girl is growing up. She is very excited about the potty and usually tells me when she has to go. We started wearing big girl training pants today, so we'll see how that goes. We went to Target today and Aeraci got to pick out her "potty toy". She got a new toy laptop that she is very excited about.

Aeraci's Swimming Lessons

During this past month, Aeraci has been taking a swimming class with mommy. She loves it! Aeraci is like a fish in water, she loves to splash, swim, float, and play in the water. We look forward to swim lessons every week.

When she's not in the water, Aeraci loves to roam around the house with her shopping cart, cuddle her baby doll, build with her legos and give mommy lot's of kisses.

It's a Boy

It's official, we are having a baby boy! I'm 20 weeks now and the ultra-sound confirmed that there is no doubt we are having a baby boy this summer. This means lot's of shopping for clothes! Aeraci's loves babies and her new word is "brother".

Winter Wonderland

Helping mom clean the house

We have been trapped in the house most of the last week because we have had two blizzards grace us with more than 3 feet of snow!!! School was cancelled all week, so now we are adding day onto the summer. I have enjoyed the extra time with Aeraci. We have been fingerpainting, making rice krispy treats, coloring and playing in the snow. Being locked in the house has also given me the opportunity to get some projects done that have been on the back burner.

Noodles

I took this video the other day of Aeraci slurping up noodles. We made pasta, and Aeraci loved it. She could not get enough noodles. She slurps them up as quick as she can get them.

This past weekend we got about 6 inches of snow, and that's Aeraci's new word "know", she has a hard time with the "s". She loves playing in it, and feeling the cold on her face, though she confuses cold with "hot".

Blowing Kisses

Aeraci's always giving hugs and kisses sthat make my day. Here is a video clip of her blowing kisses!

Life on the GO

Life has been very busy as of late, so I have not taken the time to blog. Aeraci is walking all over the house and talking more. Some of her new words are "hi", "ice", "truck" and one word she picked up "somewhere" that we're hoping she'll soon forget "s..t"!

Aaron is doing well, one month into deployment. I'm crazy busy with work, biblestudies and our newest venture swimming lessons with Aeraci. We joined the YMCA a couple weeks ago and aside from pumping iron and lot's of cardio, Aeraci and I are started a mommy and me swimming class once a week. She loves splashing and clapping in the water, and it's great to experience that with her.

As for my pregnancy, it's going great. We're nearly 18 weeks into it and the baby is starting to move frequently:) Almost half-way there!
