So contractions started today, yikes. Our family of 3 might be a family of 4 in the next couple of days, we'll see.
This week we've done a lot of last minute stuff that I wanted to get on my blog before my life disappears! lol
First Hair Cut
We'll start from today. So I gave Alyssa a bath this morning, got her dressed and we were brushing her teeth when I decided to trim up her bangs a little. She migrated into the sink so I decided to cut the back too. So then I had to give her another bath! But she really needed to get those long bangs out of her face. Here's some pictures of her new hair cut...aw what a cute little boy. :) hehe

Family Studio Picture
I've been wanting to take a family studio picture for a LONG time now and well let's just say I was finally able to convince my family members to be in the picture. hehe I had a coupon for a free maternity picture at Babies R Us and so Sunday we made the trek into the studio and got our free pictures. Good thing it was free because the lady taking our picture was in training and although she cropped the pictures she printed for us, the original pictures have terrible centering to say the least! Especially since they are supposed to be "Maternity" pictures and there is barely any of my belly. lol But I really just wanted a nice picture of the three of us and the prints turned out great. We printed the first picture and the one of Alyssa and me.
Last Family (of 3) Outing
Matt and Melissa are in town visiting Melissa's parents so on Saturday we went to the Locks to hang out, watch the boats come in and see the salmon swim up the ladders. It was fun, but it totally wore me out...maybe that's why this baby is coming sooner than later. But I guess I am due on Saturday, so it's not that early.
Alyssa wasn't in this picture because she was being a brat. hehe Brats don't get to take pictures with Mommy & Daddy. Hopefully she'll learn that soon.
She finally shaped up, so then we decided to let her be in some pictures.
They have this really cool art display above the fish ladder viewing room so we took lots of pictures in front of it.
Here is Alyssa, Me, Rebeccah and Elliott
There was also a really large grass area outside of the botanical gardens where we let the babies play on the grass. So cute - the boys had matching pacifiers and Alyssa couldn't get enough of touching Elliott's head...it's really soft. :) hehe
The grass was pretty uneven and so Alyssa had a hard time walking in it without falling down. I love this picture of her where she looks like she's about to do a cartwheel...but she's just trying to keep her balance! :)
