Growing up to fast!!

Parker Dean Mroz is 4 months old!!  How has 4 months gone by so fast???  I am in shock at how much he grows and learns every day.

 We went to his 4 month appointment this week and he is up to 19 pounds and 27 inches long!!  that is about the size of a 9 month old, which is probably why he is about to grow out of his 9 month clothing.

 He is such a happy baby.  I love him more that words can express.  He makes me tired most of the time, but I love hanging out with him all day every day.

 Some things that he can do:  He now can roll from his back to his front.  He can't quite figure out how to go the other way around, but he will get there.  He can reach out and grab things.  He even scootches himself over to things that he wants.  Everything inevitably goes into his mouth if he can get ahold of it.  He is getting really close to sitting up by himself.  He just needs to not be so easily distracted cause it throws off his balance.  He loves to have his mom read him books, he loves to be naked, he loves chewing on things, he loves his mommy.

What a blessing this little guy is.  I love him so much and I am so excited to continue watching him grow.  I just wish he would maybe slow down a little bit!  The baby stage is going by too fast!

A New Addition

Tim and I added a new addition to our family this last week.  September 20, 2012 Parker Dean Mroz was born.  We are so in love with this little guy.  He is the best thing either of us have ever done.  

 Thursday morning we went in to induce labor, 13 hours later it became very clear that the little guy wasn't going to come naturally,  about 30 minutes later we would realize why.

 He was 11 pounds!!! 23 inches long!!  He was off the charts in every way.  Perfectly healthy.  I have no idea how such a big baby fit into my belly! No wonder I had to pee ever 5 seconds, there was 11 pounds on top of my bladder!

 It's been a week and I grow more in love with every second.  He has been a pretty good baby.

I love my little family so much.  We are at the beginning of a big adventure and I am so glad I get to experience it with the two best boys ever!

A growing belly

As you can see by these recent pictures I am getting huge.  I swear that little parker doubles in size every single day.  He is getting so strong.  My whole belly moves when he is awake.  I love his big kicks so much.  It's when we bond the most.  I love him more and more every day, and can't wait tell I get to meet the little guy.  I'm in my third trimester now.  He will be here before we know it.  I can't wait to be a mommy!!!! but I am most excited to see Timothy be a daddy.  With every kick he gets to feel he gets more and more excited.  I love my boys!

Parker Dean Mroz

yesterday we found out the sex of our baby.  It's a boy :)  I am so in love and can't wait tell I can meet our cutie.  Throughout the whole ultrasound he was playing with his fingers and toes and I almost died it was so cute to watch.  It's the strangest feeling knowing there is a little person growing inside of me.  Tim and I are overjoyed and I can't wait to start getting the nursery ready for Parker's arrival!!!

Little Baby Mroz

there is a new addition to the Mroz family coming.  It's about the size of a plum right now and growing inside of me.

WE ARE HAVING A BABY!!!!!!!!!!!

The little munchkin is a lot bigger than in this picture.  That was taken at my 8 week ultrasound.  Even at this small I can tell that I am going to have the cutest baby in the whole world.

I am at about 12 weeks right now.  Goodbye 1st trimester!
I had a pretty mild first tri.  no throwing up.  just a constant queasy feeling.  That hasn't been all that bad compared to the constant need to pee.  I hate this.

but all in all being pregnant is great :)  I'm excited for the next stage of it.  I should be feeling the baby move in a few weeks! plus in two months we find out the sex :)

We could not be more excited about this next chapter in our lives!!!

hair cut

There is something about a brand new haircut that is so therapeutic.  Makes you feel like a new person.  It is a great way to break out a funk without spending tons of money.  

Thank you Amber for giving me my cute new hair do.  I'm excited.  It's bubbly and really easy to do, which is exactly what someone like me needs.

Family

We took pictures today because it's been a few years since we had pictures taken

plus there is a new addition!  

 the kittens are an important part of our family

 representing the divided by!

Biffy's Wedding!

Tim and I went to my little sister's wedding this weekend.  It was a beautiful atmosphere, and she was stunning. I'm 

glad that we got to be a part of it!

 Her wedding dress was so pretty

 It is so much nicer to be a guest instead of the bride

Last time we were all together we were a lot younger.  It's been about 8 years

July 4th

 4th of July was so much fun this year!  One because I actually got to spend it with my husband, and two because we got to spend it with great friends and the two cutest boys ever.

 While roasting Marshmallows Oliver got a little messy

 Last year Tim had to work on the 4th so I was extra excited this year

 Melissa and I rocked the sparklers

instead of enjoying his sparklers in the air, oliver used them to set the firework that looked like a house on fire.  He burnt it until there was nothing left but ashes.

All in all it was a great success!  

Our House. In the Middle of Our Street.

After going from house to house, spending $1,500 to get them appraised and inspected, and after months and months of searching we finally have a house!!!!  I love it so much.  We are having so much fun making it our own.  The only drawback we have had has been our fridge breaking after not even a day of being in.  Other than that it has been smooth sailing and we love having a place to call our own.  

 The kitchen is awesome.  I can't wait tell we can actually use it haha

 this is the living room.  Nothing is in it yet except for some bookshelves and tons of boxes

 My favorite part.  The walk in closet.  I almost have my side filled though....I really need to get rid of some more clothes.

 My second favorite part.   I can't wait for it to be cold again so I can soak in it!

 This is Tim's favorite part....He didn't like sharing a sink with me in the other house...

It's perfect.  The Mroz's live here!!! 

Shooting and getting my slurpee shirt

I shot a rifle for the first time in my life.

I don't know if I am in love with it, but it was nice to learn how.

 Have I mentioned lately that I love this boy?

 This was my favorite gun to shoot because it hurt the least haha

A slurpee is part of any great adventure, but this slurpee was special because it landed me a free slurpee shirt!!!!  Can't get much more legit than that.

Our Kitten

 He is a rapscallion.  He is also the cutest little kitten I have ever laid eyes on.  He doesn't really have a name besides psycho cat and cutie.  We thought he was a girl at first and named him miss mew....not really a gender neutral name.  

 he is the cutest when he is sleeping

 kitten in a box

 I had brought him home for the first time, 

and not even an hour later he fell asleep on me like this.

He took no time at all to warm up to me.

He has always liked to sleep right up next to my face. 

It's the weirdest thing.  I've never had a cat so snuggly before.

He was Tim and my first purchase as a married couple,

 and even though he can drive us crazy sometimes we love him dearly.
