Last Pre-Baby Update

Well, the advantage of third-trimester insomnia is that it gives me time to do things before the baby arrives, like update our blog! The next time I post pictures on here will be of our newborn son or daughter-crazy!

One of my favorite things is to give kids a camera and let them snap away. Bella has my old digital camera (which she loves) so I send her out. Here's what she came back with:

Her feet-LOVE this one!














A very artistic shot while standing on a kitchen chair (I had no idea-some Mom I am!).














A Bells-eye-view of the kitchen...















And despite my photography tutorials, she insists on holding the camera by the lens, so we have a lot of pictures of her fingers!














On the first remotely warm day in March, we headed to the park. I'm not sure who enjoyed it more-me or her.






























Even though he got saved May 5th last year, we didn't have baptisms until March (we don't have a church building, so finding a baptistry is tough). Here are a few pictures of Joshua making it official to our church family.









The man on the left is Brian, our pastor and my boss.










I love this shot because it's during worship time and I thought how cool that Joshua had Isabella on his shoulders, being an example to her of how to praise our amazing God!

























Is this not the face of pure toddler joy? This girl loves her blocks! Thanks Gamma!













Our car got keyed so we had a visit from the Carmel Police. The officer gave Isabella a "Junior Officer" sticker and Joshua joked that it wasn't fair she got to be an officer before he did.















Here she is waving bye to the garbage truck. It comes three times a week and she runs to the window at the first sound of it.















My little fashion plate.

















Endless thanks to my mom for buying these cheap, plastic glasses for Bells. She wears them all the time and they never cease to crack me up. I have about 10 pictures of her in them because she looks adorable.














Only our daughter would have the determination to eat Cheerios one at a time and with a fork.












And cue the Easter photos! Mom made this gorgeous dress for her and she was showered with gifts by Joshua's parents and grandparents. Once she got the hang of it, she had a blast searching for easter eggs, even though they were empty. She doesn't know they're supposed to be filled!





















































































































Our last shots of us as a family of three. Our good friend Shannon and her family came over and she snapped all these shots of us. So for those who can't imagine me pregnant-here I am, just 5 days from giving birth! (Jeff, sorry you have to witness this! lol)

Bells kissing the baby. She does this a lot. Hopefully it will continue when her sibling is actually here.




























I can only imagine that we are both about to discipline Isabella in this one. It was her first time playing with toy cars (courtesy of her BFF Atticus) and I believe this was about the time she was running them up and down the glass doors of our grandfather clock in the hall...













































Bella taking enough time out from her playing to run and give me a "kissy."
