Row, Row the Boat....


Josey has learned to sing Row your Boat. She sings it pretty well, forgetting some words of course but she sings it! I just think it is adorable. She also sings Twinkle Star, her A,B,C's and Ring around the Rosey. I just love that she sings these songs! The bestest part, yeah I know that bestest is not a word, is that she sings to the babies. Yes folks she sings to her unborn siblings. Too Cute! and it is normally two or three choruses. No single song for her! The best part is that she has to have my tummy totally bare. She will pull up my shirt and down the maternity panel pants I normally wear and then sing to my bare belly. Sometimes into my belly button as though it were a microphone. She also tickles the babies through my belly button....I think she thinks if she sticks her finger in there far enough she may just actually touch them! I have to stop her though, my belly button is quickly disappearing and there is not a whole lot of room to stick her finger!

Her other favorite thing to do with the babies is to tell my tummy, "I am your big sister Josey!" These babies will definitely know who she is when they appear!

Anyway....I just had to post about this adorable little girl and her love for her siblings who she has only seen on an u/s screen. We will see how things go when they are here and able to make noise and take mommy's attention but overall I think she is excited to be a big sister and hoping she will adjust accordingly.

Wait. I have another surprise!

Ok....again it has been a really long time since I posted here. My apologies to anyone who checks this website on any type of regular basis. We have been busy...and tired...and sick. Well I have been.

Josey is going to be a big sister!!!! To two siblings! We found out we were pregnant back in mid-March. More on that on my other blog...this is Josey's World! We had an early u/s at 7 weeks which we took her to. She did not know anything until then. My best friend is pregnant, due in a couple of months, so Josey had seen Aunt Bonnie with "a baby in her belly". She had an idea of the whole thing. We decided to wait until the u/s so we could actually "show" her something and also to make sure all was ok.

We went in that day and they got me all ready. The image comes up on the screen and I see a heartbeat which is exciting. We tell Josey to look, Mommy has a baby in her belly. The tech says, "wait. I have another surprise." and then points out the other baby. We told Josey that we were having two babies! Twins!

She has been so excited! She tells people that she is going to be a big sister all the time. Every night before she goes to bed she says, "Mommy I need to tell you something. I going to be a big sister!" and then she giggles the most adorable little giggle. Too cute! She knows that there are two babies in there and will tell anyone who will listen.

Here is the best part. She says that she has a baby in her tummy too. I think it is adorable. Her baby is a sister and her name is Rosey. This is a name we are considering now because it is just too cute. Here are a couple of pics of Josey with her "I'm the Big Sister." shirt on yesterday.





Also just a quick note....I will be discontinuing my infertility blog and starting a twin pregnancy blog. I will link it up here so watch for that! It is called.....Omigosh! Twins!

She LOVES soup!

It has been a while again and I am sorry for that. We have been busy and there has been lots going on. I looked back at the pictures that I have taken recently to see what she has been up to. There were quite a few!

Well....she is totally into soup these days. Yes you read that right...soup. She LOVES soup. It is actually kind of amusing. she will ask for soup for lunch or dinner. She is not real picky about the flavor. She eats just about anything. The other day she asked for soup so I had a can of beef broth in the cabinet. I heated that up with some corn and she went to town. It is really funny. I bought her a few spoons that are a little bit deeper so she can scoop up more soup and most of it actually makes it to her mouth!







We played with Play-Doh the other day and that was a lot of fun as well. She had a blast making "snakes" and other shapes with cookie cutters. She would then run a little "cutter" over them and look at the design then exclaim with glee, "It worked Mommy! It worked!" It was really cute. I just loved watching her get so excited about it.

So we have also gotten a lot of snow around here lately and she just loves to play in the snow. What we do alot when it is that snow-y is I load her up on the sled and pull her down to the post office to check our mail. Then she gets to hold any packages on the sled and we make our way back home. She thinks this is great! She loves to grab chunks of snow, clean ones of course, and eat those. She loves eating snow about as much as she loves eating soup! Her new thing is to grab a handful of snow and throw it in the air while yelling, "It's snowing!" She just loves that!

For her birthday from her Aunt Cindy she got a Green Bay Packer cheerleader outfit! She just looks adorable. We were going to wear it to a Super Bowl party but our plans changed so she did not get a chance to wear it. I was wondering when we were going to get her in it and then decided to surprise Daddy on Valentines Day at work with her in her outfit. See, her daddy is the Packer fan in the family. I am a Dallas Cowboy fan through and through. Grew up in Texas for most of my life and so my football blood runs silver and blue. Brad on the other hand is a die hard Packer fan and I have no problem obliging him! Anyway, I put her little outfit on and went to surprise Daddy. It was a good surprise he was not expecting us at all and he got to show her off to his co-workers. It is always cute to watch him beam as everyone tells him what a cutie she is. He loves it!

We also went that day to get a heart shaped pizza for dinner that night. Josey was excited to surprise Daddy. The pizza was yummy! And fun too. I will leave you all with a picture of that. More later I am sure...she is constantly entertaining us!
