The 10 Week Countdown is ON....

and Baby Weite #3 is having a blast kicking and punching me as I lay in bed trying to fall asleep! I'm exhausted and ready to snooze away, but can't complain. What a miracle in the making. I seriously can't believe that the 10 week countdown is on...in a matter of hours, it will be 9 weeks and 6 days!! Woo-Hoo!

We are so excited to welcome this baby into the world and are even more excited about the fact that we are waiting to find out what we are having. BOY or GIRL??? That is the question on everyone's mind...Trey thinks BOY, Tylee thinks GIRL, and Jason has yet to make a guess. I REALLY have no clue one way or the other...my first two pregnancies were IDENTICAL and I had absolutely NO morning sickness. This one, on the other hand, had me feeling nauseous up until the second I hit the 13 week mark. So, even though everyone seems to think I should just have that "Mommy" intuition, I really can't even begin to guess. So, guess we'll just have to wait and see!!!

I am enjoying being pregnant, but have done a fabulous job, yet again, of putting on the pounds. For some reason, it just comes so easy for me. Just that much more work for me after we meet the little one....no biggie, I'm up for the challenge. So, in the meantime, I just going to keep reminding myself that feeling fat only last for NINE months (okay, maybe quite a bit more after the fact), but the joy of being a Mommy last a LIFETIME!!!

Here's the latest pregnancy shot of me...and, will probably be the only one you'll see posted. I'm just NOT fond of the camera when I pregnant! But, I did vow to take at least one pic for the record.....

Looking forward to welcoming you into this big old world....but, goodnight for now!

And Let Twenty-Eleven BEGIN!!!

Happy New Year, All! Hope the first 10 hours of 2011 have been great for all of you....here's to 364 1/2 more days of fun, laughter, and hapiness! We enjoyed a fun family night here at home last night...playing Wii, snacking, and being silly with each other. The kiddos didn't quite make it to midnight, but still had a blast celebrating New Year's Eve (even though Tylee Jean had absolutely no clue what exactly we were celebrating)...she doesn't need a reason to have a great time!!

Trey is absolutely hooked on the Wii and actually bowled a 124, wiping out my 1st score!! He even kicked our behinds in Mouse Trap and the Game of Life! (I think those were more about luck, but Jason and I both felt a little lacking in skills after the contests....)

We're working on our New Year's resolutions lists, but overall are super excited to see what adventures 2011 brings and can't wait to welcome baby #3 into this world in 10 weeks. We are definitely looking forward to enjoying each and every day and living in the moment. Sometimes we tend to worry about tomorrow before we stop and enjoy today......

Here are a few shots from last night......

Us all being GOOF-BALLS! Having a blast....

Daddy & His Munchkins....

Me & My two favorites....

HAPPY 2011 from The Weites

Trey LOVING the Wii....This thing ROCKS!!

Now....BRING ON 2011!!



Here goes nothing....

Okay, I know what you are thinking!! I said I'd never blog....that I didn't have the patience, that I didn't have the time, that no one really cared what I had to say, blah, blah, blah!! Well, TODAY, December 31, 2010, officially marks the start of my attempt at blogging....

I have a few friends who are in the blogging "business" and I'm absolutely hooked on following them. I LOVE how it keeps me in touch with what's going on in their busy lives when we just don't have the time to talk the old fashioned way like we'd like to. I LOVE how they use their blogs to document the ups and downs of their busy, crazy lives and how they'll have a collection of posts to share with their kids as they get older. I LOVE how I can steal awesome ideas, recipes, and parenting tips from them. I just LOVE them period....

So, I've come to the conclusion that I want a blog of my own....solely for the purpose of documenting events in the lives of The Weites and keeping those I absolutely love up to date...distance may separate us, but it won't keep us apart!!

I'm no writer and I am horrible at spelling (just ask the hubs...) so feel free to laugh along with me...what's fun about life if we can't learn to laugh at ourselves and learn from our mistakes?!?!

Below is a little glimpse into our current state of Weite House craziness....what you see is what you get!!!

These are my two...Trey Jacob, who's 4 1/2, and Tylee Jean, who's 2! Christmas was a blast (I'll flashback to that a little later) and we are excited for New Year's Eve!! Needless to say, Iowa winters keep us pretty cooped up.....

So, before I bore any of you with a long-winded 1st blogging entry, I'm gonna end this one by wishing you all a Happy New Year! Be safe and have fun!! Here's to a fantastic Twenty-Eleven.....
