Belly then and now!(29.5 weeks preggy with #2!)

28 weeks preggy with Sophia Lillian!

29.5 weeks preggy with baby boy Tees!

15 month Stats

We had our 15month doctor visit today and the Tees clan all received the H1N1 shot and Miss Sophia got 3 other shots. She's weighing in at 23lbs and 30"tall. She's in the 50th percentile for height and weight. Doctor said she's developing perfectly and that since she's telling us when she goes "potty" we can start potty training her!! We think we might wait on that...one thing at a time ha!

Sophia's 14month old Fall school picture(a month late)

Brian and I lucked out and showed up to school together to drop Sophia off and figured out it was picture day!! Mommy was very happy because Sophia was wearing a brand new dress for Fall. The picture company said it's usually harder to take pictures with the parents there but they got this perfect picture of our princess! She's getting so big and we're enjoying watching her grow and learn something new everyday. She's so polite and says "please" and "thank you"...she learned very quickly that she'll get food if she's polite! We just love her so much and feel so blessed. Oh and she has a total of 6 teeth now...wohooo!

Happy 2 year Anniversary to us!

We spent the weekend up North celebrating our 2 year anniversary. BT planned the entire weekend full of surprises but the BEST surprise is that he arranged for Nana and Grandpa to bring Sophia to visit us at our hotel! I was so shocked when she showed up in her new pink dress. It's always nice to get away but we always miss Sophia so much so it was a treat to have her celebrate with us. We started off the day at the Ojai Valley Inn and Spa where we enjoyed a delicious lunch, followed by massages and some much needed relaxation. Brian knew how much I've always wanted to visit this spa and it did not disappoint. We then drove to Ventura and stayed in a cottage at the Pierpont Inn. We feel so blessed to have spent these past two years planning for and raising Sophia and can't wait to meet our newest arrival. And as if to say "hey don't forget about me" we felt pumpkin #2 hiccup for the first time in Ojai! Let the hiccups begin!

Sooo excited about the beautiful roses waiting for me in the cottage...this was before I saw Miss Sophia walk through the door

Mama was sooooooo happy to see her princess!!

Sophia was just as excited to see us...Nana bought her the cutest new pink dress!

Happy Family:)

Thank you Nana and Grandpa Paola for taking such good care of our princess and driving her up to visit us on our Anniversary!

Punkin Pie here I come!

We are so happy to announce that Mama does not have Gestational Diabetes and will be enjoying pumpkin pie on Turkey Day. I failed the 1 hour test and took the 3 hour test on Friday(Daddy was kind enough to sit in the doctors office with me for 3 hours). I had my blood drawn 4x in 3 hours after fasting and drinking a sugar drink and doctor says ALL my readings came back perfectly normal! I must say I'm in totaly shock(IN A GOOD WAY)!! Many thanks to our baby boy for allowing mommy to eat treats during the holidays

27 week eggplant! Hello 3rd trimester:)

I haven't posted a belly picture in a while(such a bad mommy). Peanut #2 has been very good to me so far. Sleeping is getting a little tricky but that's to be expected. Doctor says everything looks great and mommy will start her GD regime next week. Baby is moving around like crazy and daddy and mommy are getting VERY excited for his arrival. We just love the idea of Sophia having a little brother and Sophia is now kissing mommy's tummy on a regular basis and saying "baby" to her little brother. Speaking of Sophia(one of our most favorite topics), she started repeating "I love you" which just melts mommy and daddy's heart!!

Birthdays!!

We spent this past weekend celebrating Brian and Nana's birthdays! We had a belated birthday celebration with the Tees family for Brian's birthday and celebrated Nana's birthday at King's Fish House.

Sophia loved her ducky toy that Grandma Tees shared with her.
