Another baby update!

Hey everyone! Just wanted to give another quick update for Massey baby #3. We are now on for next Thursday, 1/31 for our scheduled delivery! We will be going in the hospital in the morning and having the c-section by noon. I'm still going twice a week to the dr. for non-stress tests on baby -- everything has been looking great so we're doing well right now....just anxious for the big day to get here soon! We'll be sure and announce the arrival next week! And, I'm sure there will plenty of photos posted soon after! : )

Baby update....

No baby yet....but soon to come! : ) Just wanted to update everyone on our latest appt. Turns out we are scheduled right now for our c-section three weeks from tomorrow! I'm measuring a bit small for the baby's weight right now (you surely couldn't tell it...I feel huge!) so we're also scheduled for an ultrasound next week to double check things. And, no....we still won't find out the sex of the baby! : ) We'll also start what the dr. calls "non-stress" tests on the baby 2x a week as of next week for the next 3 weeks....guess it's routine once mama has reached a certain age....yep, I feel old! : ) Everyone is very excited, especially the girls...they cannot wait for the big day! We'll keep you posted, just wanted to send the latest news!

Christmas 2007!

We had a great Christmas and wanted to share a few pics with everyone from it. We spent the Sat. night before Christmas w/ Shell's extended family, enjoying pizza and goodies at our house. Then, on Christmas Eve, we took our annual trip to the Childrens' Museum during the day w/ some friends to visit with Santa and have a few trips down the giant slide! That night, we headed to Shell's parents' house for a celebration w/ her immediate family. Then, Christmas morning, we enjoyed just our own family's fun of opening presents and eating Christmas breakfast together before heading down to Louisville to celebrate the day w/ Jason's side of the family. We stayed at Nana & Papa's until last night, when we finally headed back home to unload the many many presents that the girls enjoyed digging thru most of today! We all received so many neat new things...Allie's favorites would be her giant doll house (hand built by Papa Don!) and her Barbie MP3 player, Lauren's favorites would be her new baby with own little blanket and baby stroller! Whew....so much fun packed into just a few short days! But we wouldn't trade all of the excitement (aka..."chaos"!) for anything!

Winter Fun!

We spent the weekend doing all kinds of winter fun activities. With the nice snow that we recently got, we were able to play out in it as well as come in when we got cold to make our annual Massey Gingerbread house. Allison is getting really good at making these now! Of course, all Lauren wanted to do was eat all of the candy going on it and then eat the actual house once it got put together! : ) The girls put together their wish list and letters to Santa -- Allison had to stop after toy #19! We are all getting ready for the holidays and hope you are all enjoying this special time of the year as well!

Massey Thanksgiving 2007!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We survived another wonderful time of hosting Shelly's family at Thanksgiving this year. A fun time was had by all w/ eating lots of turkey, pigging out on pumpkin pie and of course, appeasing Allie w/ everyone participating in her annual "craft"! This year, she (w/ Mommy's help!) made a "thankful tree" which every family member had to create a "blessing" leaf for to show what they were thankful for and then hang it on a branch of the tree. By the end of the day, her tree was full! Very nice! : ) Here's the family pic from our day.....notice that Lauren is her "typical" self in this one! Hope everyone enjoyed their family time together as much as we did!

Girls having fun!

Just a couple of pics to pass on from recently. Of course, the girls love to dress up and "model" for us so here's their latest fashion designs! Have a great week and Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Halloween 2007!

Here are a few pics from our Halloween this year. We had alot of fun trick-or-treating and then taking part in our Harvest Party at church. Allie was dressed up like one of the characters in High School Musical (Sharpay..the singer!) and Lauren was playing the part of Dora the Explorer! Of course, the girls were exhausted this morning, not only from their late night out but from the sugar high that they were coming down from after all of their yummy goodies last night! Lauren woke up asking for her pumpkin full of candy and Allie asked how long a year would take to get here so she could do it all over again! : ) Hope everyone enjoyed a fun night w/ their families!
