Izzy is going to have a brother

21 week Ultrasound seemed to go good today.  The doctor will need to review the results, but everything seemed to be in place and we are on target for sometime between Halloween and mid November.  We are pretty excited, even Izzy, although she said, "Mommy, you have a baby brother and I have a baby sister."  I just agreed and smiled.

Profile of baby boy Field..the spot above the head is his fist...already ready to "pound it."
Face and profile of babe, hands on either side, abdomen and spinal cord.

Happy 3rd Birthday Isabella

Isabella had a Mickey Mouse birthday party at the Big House this year.  It was great fun!  Here are some pictures from the event and from the gifts she got from family.  I think she liked the cake the most...or was it the pinata?  She got some great gifts, thanks to all!!

I AM 3 TODAY!

After counting down all the wake-ups, we have finally reached June 8th!  Izzy was so excited this morning that she is "big" now.  And she also said, "Daddy, I am growing up."  Ah...too fast, right?  She really has been turning into such a little lady.  Her vocabulary is so crazy with all the words she says.  She said to me the other day, "Mommy, I have to put my babies to sleep, otherwise, they will be crabby.  We don't want to be crabby."  We love her to pieces and can not imagine our lives without her.  This picture was taken from Chris' phone this morning.  She came downstairs to see all her presents and a balloon (I found at the Dollar store, what?)
We will have cake and ice cream with Aunt Roni this evening and party time is on Saturday (4 more wake-ups.)

Walt Disney World

Oh how I wish I could show you all 815 pictures we took on this trip, but that would craziness and a complete waste of my time and yours.  There are many that i would love for you to see, but will limit myself here. 

We made the last minute decision to go to Orlando with Izzy before the busy, hot summer begins and before peanut graces us with her/his presence this Fall.  Miss Izzy is really into Mickey mouse and friends right now, so what a prefect time to go.  We stayed at the Gland Floridian, a place I have always wanted to stay.  It was wonderful...a nice vacation for us...so close to Magic Kingdom was one stop, literally 5 minutes, so made going back for naptime a breeze.  I was able to get some much needed "mommy time" during those 3 hour periods as well. 

Our 5 day/6 night trip started at Magic Kingdom, then Animal Kingdom, and Epcot and even an evening trip to Downtown Disney (thanks to my sister, I would never have discovered this wonderful place of shopping and Ghirardelli ice cream.)
So, let the picture sharing begin!

The Castle!!
Loving the Carousel
The Castle before the parade and pulling on Daddy's ears are fun
The Dumbo ride
Sleeping Beauty
Telling Cinderella her name
Assuming the picture taking position...for some reason it was a "pressed position."
All business with her page ready for Belle to sign.
Minnie and Mickey...very fun.  Minnie pointed out Izzy's hairbow and her dress with Minnie on it.
Her first roller coaster ride...she loved it!
Her first roller coaster ride "official card."
