I'm thankful we heard the heart beat!

That's right I'm almost 13 weeks pregnant! Baby Brough #2 is due June 5, 2010. I don't like to post the exact day because if and when that day comes and goes I will be sad. I remember it all too well when Lily came a week later than anticipated.
I visited Midwife Jeanne yesterday and was so excited when she pulled out her music maker(ultrasound machine to listen to the heart). It sure was music to my ears. I've been worried that I was crazy and just had the stomach flu for a few weeks. Or I'd show up and they'd say you're not pregnant just early menopause. But its not. I'm creating another perfect baby to join to my eternal family. I've never been so happy to be a woman in all my life as I've been as a mother. My angel Lilia is better than I could have imagined.
I was honestly worried I wouldn't feel the same way about this little one. And sadly up until now it has seemed unreal and I haven't felt very connected. I'm thankful for the technology that has given me the opportunity to connect with my baby. I'm crying as I type all of this and I know now with certainty that this baby will have every bit of my love as Lilia has. I didn't understand as other mothers said "you're love isn't divided, its multiplied." I understand.
I know I'm not a talented writer, but this post was written for me to draw even closer to my new child. But if you've taken the time to read it, I hope you enjoyed it.

We ran away to Utah back in October.

We went to Utah to visit and help out my sister in October. We had a fabulous time minus the week of sickness that we all shared. Mom and I walked around temple square one morning. Lily mostly wanted to get in the water.
Having so much fun with Joshua! They made me want twins some day. Too CUTE!

Cute bums!

He would stop at the bottom of the slide each time so she could slide down and hug him.

Being silly with Grandpa!

We had so much fun with cousins and family! Grandma and Grandpa drove up to visit us for the day! We went to the Mayan for lunch and saw cliff divers and a firework in our dessert. We sure miss them!

Lilia Lately,

It has been awhile since I dedicated a post to my little sweet heart. Here are photos from the last 2 months. She's so big now! She talks and does silly things to make us laugh. She can say her animal sounds, label the face with words, she eats well with a fork and spoon and has many opinions. She has gone potty several times and loves to be outside. And she loved Trick or treating, she said "reet reet" and wanted candy!

Quack Quack (means Trick or treat in duck)

Lily insists on sitting in the bouncey seat while we have Nina over.

Fall Fun!

I asked her "Where's Daddy?" This is her "I don't know" expression.

playing in the leaves is not something I had to teach her how to do.

this flower is tasty

water!!

I love to see the temple!

She loves playing with my old troll dolls. She was very concerned about their hair and was trying to fix it.

playing in the kitchen drawers, "now how do I get out of here?"

She has a new fascination with stickers.

her "house" is where the portable dishwasher sits unless its being run. She loves to play inside!
