I have a blog?

I haven't posted since October 14...yikes! I have good reasons though.  Mainly because this happened....

 

Yep, the Webb's are expecting Baby #2 at the end of April. I am currently 24 weeks! This past semester was a blur...because I felt like death.  This pregnancy has been nothing like the first.  I had to tell my students I was with-child at around 8 weeks so they would forgive me for running out of class in the middle of a sentence to throw my guts up...luckily, they were very understanding. It was a solid 18 weeks before I felt sort of like a normal human again.

I have a few good pictures on my camera, but it (and my computer) are not cooperating at the moment, so I'll stick with iphone documentation of the last few months...

Will was Mickey Mouse for Halloween...thanks to my cousin Beth for saving her boys' costumes through the years!  When my computer cooperates, I'll post the pictures from Halloween night where there were big tears rolling down his face because mean-ole-mom wouldn't let him stay outside with Dad in the frigid temperatures!

I celebrated my 30th birthday! Amongst lots of cool stuff, I was most excited about my automatic car starter my family got for me!  Now on bitter mornings, Will and I hop into a nice toasty vehicle...totally priceless!

 

 

Will got to ride in Pawpaw's truck. And oh my goodness, this is the BEST thing in the world.  Bless his heart...when we visit Brian's family, the first thing Will says when he wakes up is "truck!"  He loves Pawpaw's truck!

 

At some point when I could hold my head up without feeling woozy, I was ready to tackle a project! The lady we bought our house from left a great hutch, table, and chairs. But the chairs looked like she let her kids wipe their faces on them.  Cleaning didn't work, and I wasn't about to reupholster the backs, so I compromised.  I recovered the seats and painted the backs (using this tutorial). I also painted some curtains for the dining room.  Please excuse our gross basement...it's on the to-do list....way at the bottom labeled "someday when we have an extra (at least) 20K sitting around"

 

 The boys also got new Ikea bedroom furniture put together! So, we may have plaster falling off the walls, but by golly, we finally have bedroom furniture that matches! High five dad!

 

 Brian and I got to join Will one day for lunch at school for his big Holiday Feast! It was so much fun!

 

Will helped me make Pioneer Woman Cinnamon Rolls...an official Webb family Christmas tradition.  He stirred the icing (and flipped it all over the counter)....

 

...discovered the butter/sugar/cinnamon mixture still left on the table and licked it up when "mom wasn't watching".....

 

...and licked his plate clean when he finally got to eat one! HA!

 

 And during a tense evening in the ER, we found out we are having a little GIRL!!!  I have a feeling she is going to add some adventure to our lives, because she has certainly been a spitfire thus far.

We are currently working on Will's big boy room so I can redecorate the nursery for our sweet babe. I'm going with orange/pink/red color scheme this time with these as inspiration photos...

 

And if she doesn't get her brother's lashes, she is going to be ticked.....
