Our sweet little baby #2 is due on January 29th! Our goal is to not find out the sex of the baby until delivery, so hopefully we can hold out until then. We've also picked out a boy and a girl name, but will be keeping that to ourselves until the big day. We'll keep everyone posted on how things are going over the next 7 months and will post more ultrasound pics as we get them. Thanks in advance to everyone for all their prayers and support during this very exciting time! 
Ya-Ya came up last weekend, so we thought it would be fun to go down to the duck pond to feed all the ducks and turtles. We did it a few weeks ago and Pres loved it! If you ask her what a duck say she will say "Quack Quack". It's so cute!
Listening while Daddy shows her where to throw the bread.
Pretty smile!
She has a pretty strong arm and can throw the bread all by herself to the ducks and turtles.
Taking a break to give Daddy a big kiss!
The theme for her birthday this year is going to be "Lemonade & Sunshine". I got the idea from a lemonade and sunshine party I saw on another blog. It seemed so sweet and just perfect for an August birthday party!
I'm playing with the idea of putting all the ingredients in mason jars to give away as party favors. Not sure yet if that's what I want to do, but it's kind of cute.
Presley got a super cute apron from Aunt Kiki for Easter. Doesn't she look so cute??? Mama's little assistant ready to help.
Stirring the cookie dough.
My sweet little baby cakes!
Time to enjoy the fruits of our labor...the best lemon cookies you have ever tasted.
Presley thoroughly enjoyed eating her cookie!
These cookies were definitely a hit and will be made again very soon!Recipe:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Empty contents of jar into large mixing bowl. Add 1/2 C. melted butter. Add one egg and one teaspoon vanilla. Mix thoroughly with hands. Drop one-inch balls, slightly flattened, onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Cool slightly on cookie sheet then transfer to cooling rack. Makes approximately four dozen cookies.
Presley had her first gymnastics evaluation and we got a report card telling us how well she's doing. I can't believe everything she has learned in the last 2 months. She is doing so well and I'm continually impressed with how quickly she learns new things.
All the checks in the middle column means that she's close to mastering that skill, all the checks on the far right mean she can do that skill on her own. So far, on her own, she can: roll, hold her back and bottom off the floor using only her palms and feet, walk forward, backward, and sideways on the balance beam, bear crawl on the high beam, hang on the bars for at least 5 counts, do a tuck and hold it, jump off the trap and land on both feet, and hop 3 times in a row.
This is what Presley wore on Monday, May 2nd. We had been wearing shorts and t-shirts everyday for the last month, but we got a late cold front in and the temperatures were in the 40s!!! I think someone forgot to tell weather that it's supposed to be warm in May. Thank goodness we hadn't put our winter clothes away just yet.
We had so much fun celebrating Presley's second Easter this year! The Easter Bunny brought her a basket filled with chocolates, coloring books, a new yellow dress, 3 pairs of personalized embroidered big girl panties (we are hoping to be able to wear them without a diaper by the end of the summer...more on that later), and two fun new books.

Here's a group shot of our family and friends who joined us on Easter Sunday. It was such a great day!
