What have we been up to?

I admit.  I've been a little slack on my posts, I guess I can blame the pregnancy and us being quite busy these days. So here's an update of what we've been up to.

First of all, my husband has been working his butt off.  I appreciate his hard work and helping us save some money before Tyler is here and even though we've been missing him, we've been enjoying the moments that we do have with him.  If he's not working a regular shift, he's been picking up OT at the Marlins and Heat games during the week:

Looks like he's hardly working, huh?    

 

At Monkey Joe's on a rainy afternoon...."Weeeeeee!"

"Beep, beep!"

I'm currently 26 weeks pregnant. Please note that I had to look that up to verify that! Haha. This pregnancy I know about what week I am but not like I knew with Hunter down to the week and day!  I'm trying to just not think about how much farther I have to go because I think it will just go by slower. I have been starting to have some moments where I'm slowing down but I still pretty much have my energy.  This belly can get in the way at times =).  Me and Hunter have been playing so much with his cars and trucks.  He is definitely all boy. I love it though.  I would rather play with boy toys than girl toys.  I guess that is why God is blessing me with 2 of them because I can tolerate so much to their roughness and playtimes (for now at least).  

Here's a recent belly shot of me taken at work. We were joking around with the liquor bottles one afternoon and got a little carried away...haha. (Btw, even if I could drink I would not choose a dark liquor anyway!) 

Hunter thinks that Millie is a "horsey" sometimes so Sean put them both on his lap (poor Millie). Millie loves playing with Hunter. They're so cute when they chase each other around the house. 

My mom (aka Mimi) came to visit over the long holiday weekend and we had a blast with her.  We didn't really do a whole lot but was so nice to just relax and enjoy each other.  We definitely had our share of eating (well, at least Tyler did) and Hunter really enjoyed being with his Mimi. He was saying "Mimi" all the time before she left and it was so cute to hear him calling her that.  She also got to witness Hunter saying his first 3-word sentence, "I see you (daddy)".  Sean was playing with his blanky and putting it over his head and would pretend that he was hiding from him and Hunter would yank down his blanky off of Sean's head and say, "I see you, daddy!!".  Ahhh, I love it!  He's definitely been picking up alot more on his vocabulary these past few weeks.  He's saying more now on his own and less on demand and its so cute to hear him just say them out loud at any time. 

Morning before Mimi left.  (I know another "paci" shot!  I let him have it in the mornings for a little bit until he "wakes up" and we have been working at giving up it up but I admit it's tough =)

We also had a chance to take Mimi to the beach that weekend....it just so happened to be super windy but we still had a great time.  Hunter is still trying to get used to the sand between his toes and still trying to figure out what is up with those waves out in the ocean. 

This is how much Hunter did not like the sand nor the waves when Sean put him down.  Haha.  I think he wasn't used to the sand being wet down by the shore and on top of the noisy waves he was not having it.  We're not giving up!

On the way back from the beach, we always stop at this park on the way back and let Hunter play and get all of his energy out.  This park is one of those state of the art parks.  We have so many around us but this one by far is his favorite. Everytime we pass this one, he goes bananas in his seat and starts screaming, "Park, Park, Park!".... 



For Memorial Day we went to a family like place called Gulfstream Park where they race horses, restaurants, shops and  live music.  They also have an area where the kids can run around and the parents can sit around and watch them. I forgot my camera and my iPhone that night (my preggo brain these days) so luckily my mom had her camera with her so we took some photos.

We went into a children's store where they had a giant size Mickey and Hunter when bananas over it.  He was so happy to see him that I suggested to him that he should give him a kiss.  So he did!  Hunter has become quite generous with his kisses lately.  

 

We love our Mimi!

We've also been switching around stuff in our rooms at the house.  We're almost done with the playroom and in the meantime we are getting ready to decorate Tyler's room!  I'll post pics when its all done but I admit, I'm am getting a little antsy on wanting to get the room done its just a matter of finding time for my husband to help.  He has been warned.

We're also planning a trip to Myrtle Beach to meet up with Mimi, my brother and his wife, Jessica next month and we're so excited!!! It will be my last vacay for awhile....a loooong while actually so I will definitely try and enjoy myself to the max with my family.  Can't wait!
