September

OK, Fall is here! Annabelle and I broke out the boots :) I love Fall for so many reasons. Both Brad and I celebrate our birthdays, Brad and I met in September had our second date in October. I found out with both babies that I was pregnant in the fall. Both of my girls were blessed in the Fall. The leaves change colors, decorations come out, I love getting ready for Halloween, and what can I say... FOOTBALL SEASON BEGINS! Yes, we are big Ravens and BYU Fans. OK, and who doesn't enjoy pulling out some of your favorite jeans and boots! :) Brad my handsome man turned 31 this September. Annabelle says it best about Brad... Anytime I say "Annabelle you're the best!" She quickly, without any hesitation says, "NO! Daddy Best!" We do think Brad is the best around here. We are so lucky to have him.

Annabelle is Two.. way past due.


Things you do and say...

Well, a while back you would call us "mommydaddy" like we were one person. Now you call us mommy and daddy. Sometimes you will even say "come here Brad" it is so funny!

You come up to your sister and shake her hand, "nice to meet you" you say.

When I put you in your car seat you tell me it's hot and put on the air conditioner.

When you see you blanket lying on the ground you run to it and say "it's clean, not stinky" then you try and smell it by blowing on it with your nose instead of sniffing it.

During dinner you always point to daddy's cup and say "I want daddy water" After drinking mommy water you always say, "spicy" (diet coke) you call it spicy drink.

You love eating just plain ham and turkey. yep that's pretty much it these days. Oh, and chocolate!!

In sacrament meetings whenever you see your nursury leader you blurt out "teacher, Hi teacher" It's too cute.

You say amen to dinner prayers and at night will start to repeat some of the words in our prayers. You squint your eyes when you close them...love it.

When I say listen you point to your ear and say, "TING" I think its from some cartoon you watch. Everytime you listen to something I say you say "TING" You love putting stickers on you listening chart.

When you go down the stairs by yourself now you say, "I big girl" all the way down. You count each step on your way up and down.

You ask Daddy and I to dance with you all the time. You sing "I know you I walked with you once upon a dream" It's your favortie princess song.

You tell us stories saying, "Once upon a time.. a princess lived in castle.. a wicked witch. The end" You say to daddy, "you a prince, I'm a princess. You play the sleeping beauty game where you have everyone lay down and you kiss them and they wake up.

You love to cuddle, you help Julia when she is crying, Daddy is your best buddy, every morning I open the door to your room and you say "I Wake Up" it's so darling.

Change for the better



OK, so after about two weeks of calling her Lillian and Lilly... It just wasn't fitting her at all. Brad and I both agreed that she needed a name change. We both loved June, it's Brad's Grandma Scotts name. She was absolutely such an amazing lady.. and she was born in June, How perfect! It's funny because I had a name I loved during the whole pregnancy and then a couple days before she was born I came up with the name Lillian.

Well, We went back to our "name list" and bounced our favorites around for a few days. One name didn't leave my mind. It was the name I loved the whole pregnancy. I feel so sure about it, and now couldn't picture any other name for my sweet girl. Sooooo without further a due, now presenting.....
JULIA JUNE FISHER!

Baby June!

BABY JUNE arrived June 11th. She weighed 7 pds (just like her sister) She came a week early and boy was I ready!



After having intense contractions coming and going for a week, and many many, many long walks in the early morning hours to try to keep my contractions going.... I decided I wanted to be induced. It was just too emotionally draining to prepare for the hospital and then all of a sudden the labor pains would stop. Annoying! Luckily, my mom was a trooper and my walking buddy during all of this.

The morning I got to the hospital they gave me this magic little pill that helps thin out your cervix. Soon after that, my body kicked into full gear and labor pains were coming on strong! Luckily, I didn't need the potosin. I do wish I had asked for the epidural sooner.. because boy did the contractions start coming hard and fast. I used the exercise ball this time and it was kinda different (still painful) but after about an hour of contractions I got the magic epidural... awwww yes :) And just like with Annabelle it was a few pushes and she was out!!! I was in shock to see all the dark Hair!

It was so fun to have Annabelle come to the hospital. She was saying "baby sister, baby sister" When we asked her to hold Baby June we put her on Annabelle's lap and she was just giggling and laughing... it was so cute! So presenting BABY JUNE FISHER!!!!!

It's not over till the fat lady sings...

"lalalalala" Ok, I know it's way over and the pregnant lady has sung.. but here are some last pregnancy photos before baby June came. It was kinda the last few shots with just me andand my buddy Annabelle. I knew things would be different with two little girls but I will always remeber when it was just "us" :)

Road Trippin Red Necks...



A few weeks ago Brad had some business stuff to do in Pennsylvania. Annabelle and I tagged along with him in our big truck! Which made the trip even more exciting... driving in our rental truck we had for that week. We stopped by the gas station for some munchies and of course a big diet coke :) After taking care of business stuff we drove a little bit further to "Cabellas" It's this HUGE hunting, outdoor, redneck dream store. I actually was quite impressed by some of their animals on display. It was like going to a museum... a "man museum" ha ha but it was fun. Brad and I purchased a sweet lounge chair and signed up for the VIP club.. so we got hats and aCabella's bag. It was fun being a redneck :)

Park Days

I love that the cold weather is gone. Annabelle and I have had a lot of fun going park hopping and enjoying this beautiful weather! We were so lucky that Catherine came with us to Baker Park the other day and got some really cute shots of Annabelle. (sometimes I feel like she is our personal photographer following us around) I love it!!! Annabelle was a little chicken going to parks at first she even had a phobia walking in the grass... after many park days she is doing much better :)

Please welcome my sister to the blogging world and feel free to check out her awesome blog! She loves taking pictures and is so talented..... http://catherineaegan.blogspot.com

Da Prego Bump

Ok, sorry for the ghetto camera pics of my starchy white belly bump... what can I say it's been a nasty winter. This is my attempt to capture my lovely expanding belly. This pregnancy has been about the same as last time so I can't complain to much... I didn't throw up once, just felt VERY TIRED the first 3 months. My heartburn is still bad like last time.. which means Tums are my BFF. I did start showing a lot sooner, which I heard is normal your second pregnancy. It's like my body was yearning to wear the elastic waist band pants. Well here are the pics. :)
