Happy 31 weeks!

Yay! I'm on the down slope............!?! It's a little nerve racking to have another baby coming,but it sounds so nice to be done! It's going to fly by with the holidays. I feel like I have so much to still prep! I went and bought a couple outfits........there are some cute cute boy stuff! I have more heart burn than I've ever experienced with my other two. He's an active little stinker! I was hoping for more mellow as my other two never stopped......oh no, he might be exactly like his sisters...........but I will be lucky if he is!

Attention!

Hey! I need addresses to send christmas cards to. If you would like one, please send me your address to mcduffiemom@hotmail.com. Thank you!

Lots to be thankful for!

well, this thanksgiving post was meant to happen quite awhile ago, but what can you do? LIfe keeps happening............can you get the flu twice.........and in the same month? Yep, you sure can! WE can attest to that as of this past week. It started Thanksgiving night, I was planning to go do the fun "Black Friday" fest, but woke up to Gracie crying. Normally, I let them cry back to sleep, but I felt to go check on her, so I did and there was vomit everywhere. So, Mo and I had our work cut out for us that night. She was in so much pain 'til sat. Then I started Sunday morning 'til mon. morning, Mo mon. morning (and he's still recovering) and then poor savanna started last night! It has been awful! Mo lost 11 lbs. in one day! ONe day! WE finally took him in and he got this shot and has slowly recovered since.............I have never seen someone in so much pain! He had no in between relief for well over 30 hours. I have never felt so sick and so exhausted and have shed so many tears in a long time. It has been so trying, but I have been so grateful..............it's amazing to realize how much you love your best friend and your children.......and how you find the strength to keep going for them. Thank goodness for a loving heavenly father, who allowed us all to get it at different moments so I could get grounded a little to take care of everyone! I am grateful for my family! This was our first thanksgiving doing our own thing and it turned out well! I had so much fun doing my own turkey! It was hard to not have my parents here,but life moves on and I wouldn't wish them anywhere else. Now, I just hope I can catch up on everything I have put off this week! Sorry no pics, I'm too tired to get them!

Happy Birthday Babe!

It's my hubby's birthday today! What can I say, I love this man! He's the most amazing person I have ever met! He is my best friend and I feel I've known him my whole life! We can be doing nothing and be having the time of our lives laughing. He is such a hard worker......He's up early taking care of the girls so I have more timeto sleep, he rides his bike to work and back most of the week, he manages to do everything asked of him at work, then schoolwork, and then comes home and is mr. mom 'cuz I am so tired and sick! He loves his woman in his life: me, savanna, and gracie, his mom, mom in law, and his grandma! he soon will have a little guy to watch and care for and I hope he turns out just like his daddy! He is such a hands on daddy and the girls love him for it! He is always striving to be better and serve HIs father in Heaven, which helps me get my butt into gear! I"m so so so glad he chose me and that he loves me the way he does. I love you mo! Happy Happy Happy Birthday!

Well, halloween was fun! I wanted to post this earlier, but let's just say the "flu" got in the way! Yep! Love the Flu! Monday night, Savanna, MOrgan and Gracie all got hit with it, and I was up all night cleaning and recleaning floors, towels, blankets, and holding my poor girls! So far, I haven't gotten it. We are looking better, lots of disinfecting , lots of laundry and we are well on our way! I hope hope hope I don't get it! Back to Halloween... we had a monkey and a lion. Savanna loved to growl when we would ask her what a lion says. When we asked Gracie what a monkey says, it was definitely a growl too to be like her sister! It was cute! I made the head pieces and tails, so don't look too close. They kept trying to go in everyone's home! cracked us up!

I was tagged awhile ago and I've been really slow...........so here is this tag..........
I am... happy it is halloween!
I think... about how crazy we are for having two kids two and under and another like 3months away! yikes!
I know... my husband thinks I'm hot......I could come home with bright orange hair and he'd think I'm the most beautiful thing ever.............funny thing is that I'd know he really means it!
I want... to be full of energy!
I have... everything I could wish for........married to my best friend for forever and have the greatest family(extended on both sides too!)ever!
I wish ... that I wasn't sick.........course it has helped me from eating like a maniac and all the foods I crave......'cuz I know the result!
I hate...feeling manipulated! Drives me crazy!
I miss... my Mom and Dad! love you guys!
I fear... losing a kid or my hubby!
I feel... sick :(
I hear... nothing! Aaaah! My girls are down for a nap! I should be down for a nap!
I smell... burnt rubber.....don't ask!
I wonder... How many kids we'll have, where life is going to take us, and what my girls and this boy are going to be like!
I regret... not being better at calling people(especially family) to check up on them!
I love... Mo, my girls, my family
I always... tell my girls and my husband, like a million times a day, that I love them!
I believe... I choose to be who I want to be...........happy!
I don't always...have enough patience..........really , who does?
I win... games when Mo isn't playing.......or it's like the millionth time.......He's too good at games... he has a very strategic mind!
I lose... to Mo all the time with games..........except I'm pretty good at the teasing game!
I never... can handle shows where kids are mistreated or killed..........it is too sensitive of a subject now that I have my own and know how precious they are!
I listen... to my girls laugh..........love the sounds they make!
I am scared of... spiders...........black widows...........we get some scary looking ones around our home.
I read... a lot of books- Jane Austen has been my favorite author lately! Ilove my girls books and they love to be read to.
I am happy about... being me. sure I can be better..........but I'm grateful for a hubby that has always thought the world of me and believes in me that I believe in me and want to be better!
I tag Jocee, Karleena, Amy, Esther and Megan!

Gotta love Daddys!

My hubby had to do a presentation for one of his classes in his degree and used this cute cute cute commercial... we got the biggest kick out of it! All I know is this is my hubby in a couple of years, involved 100% in whatever our children decide to do...........enjoy!
