Goat Fun!

Well the fun didn't stop this Sunday! Grandma had a field trip planned and it involved KIDS! A local goat farmer (is that what you call them?) had a fresh litter (again, right word?) of kids. Four baby girl goats were waiting for us to come and ooooo all over them. They were just five days old!

I'm pretty sure that all Sidney Kate said was, "Aw, they are so cute!" You can see her opened mouth expression here.

 and here...

The goat plan, I'll distract her and you eat her skirt! Sidney Kate didn't mind the tugging of her skirt being devoured...and she walked away still wearing it. All was well.

Awwww...I think this goat was going in for the sniff too.
About the 3:50 mark you'll hear Sidney Kate not wanting to hold the goat...after holding a few already.

Happy 95

After the baby shower we headed off to Grandpa's for his 95th Birthday Celebration!! 95 years deserves a big "whooah" and he got it! We had food for an army and a tractor cake, along with other yummy desserts, to top it off. Nevermind that mass amount of body heat up in his house...just like Christmas! The tractor was the wrong color, as he noted, but I'm guessing the cake decorators haven't heard of Case tractors...it's a John Deere world these days. This isn't Grandpa's but a picture of one like it...no green here! HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDPA!!

Baby Shower Bliss

I believe this is our 36 week belly shot. Sidney Kate and I (daddy too) were dressed for church and our baby shower for "Jetta." Sidney Kate was impersonating that guy on Star Trek. :)

She wasn't much into the opening of presents or the acknowledging that she knew me or Kevin. She preferred the food and grandparents.

Again, she wasn't into us this day. I figured she'd be all about opening gifts, but I'm pretty sure she ignored whatever she thought we were doing.

Welcome Baby Jackson!

Today Jackson Craig Freeman entered the world and today SKV got to hold him!!! She was just about as happy as any little kid at Christmas! She sat with Uncle Chad and the boppy and Daddy brought Jackson over. (I have video too!)

Welcome to the world Jackson!!

New Favorite Centerpiece!

I got my new favorite centerpiece this morning! Our latest, and last (unless God has other plans), set of maternity pictures!! We did a few shots but this series made it on the table. FUN!

I asked SKV if she liked it and she said, "It's perfect!". I agree!

Thanks Forever Children's Photography!!

Playtime

I've decided that SKV has certain games she does with each grandma-so it's true confusion when she tries to tell the other how to do something. This evolved...who knows how. But it's fun for her-she gets to sit in the basket and spin around in the air.

Oh Baby!

Mommy and Sidney Kate getting dolled up for maternity pictures. Love that the little baby carriage charm happens to show too-awww.

Getting Ready for Easter

Nothing like shopping for that perfect Easter outfit! Pretty sure I have a good one of Kevin wearing an Easter hat from last year too-might have to dig that out.

Daddy's Golfing

Daddy went on a little golfing trip with his friends, so we rallied Aunt Jill and went for a movie and ice cream. We saw Gnomeo and Juliet=adorable and now I want a gnome or two in my yard. This was Sidney Kate's second 3D movie-she wasn't up for the glasses BUT she didn't take one bathroom trip! Woot!

So after realizing there was NOTHING in the house to even fake a meal off of, I told Sidney Kate we'd have to hit the drive thru. Cute huh?! Mommy looked equally mis-matched. However, in the grand scheme of things-who cares? You make way more fun memories like this anyway-in her "cowboy hat" as she called it. (chuckle)

Another example, or two. When Aunt Linda was in the hospital, Sidney Kate wanted to wear her princess dress...so we let her. Everyone in the hallways of the hospital got a good smile out of it.
Here is Sidney Kate before we left to go see Aunt Linda after hearing that her brain tumors were GONE!!! That's news worth celebrating and you always celebrate better in your fairy dress right?!

Posing Once Again

I don't even remember where we were going or what we were doing...blame the baby brain!
Either way-another cute mix and match...minus that red hair bow-oh well.

It takes a few shots...she usually looks away on the first one. I look forward to the day I get to squeeze two little girls in this shot-won't be long!

Week 34

Six weeks to go...(as I post this I have 4 weeks and 5 days) But who's counting?
Me! and SKV, she's ready to hold that baby!

Let's Go Play!

In February we had those crazy, random warm days. Daylight was ending too early for Daddy to ever play with us, so one day we went and got him from work and headed to the park for a "yittle" bit of fun!

I love this swing, however my lap room is limited so Sidney Kate got to swing alone. Kevin made me a little nervous with his high swinging pushes...sometimes I think he's trying to send me into early labor.

She's grown so much since her first park trip! And since her first sliding runs on her own!
