34 Weeks and Puppies!

Here is my 34 week belly shot! I am starting to feel REALLY preggo! Not much longer now! Also, another shot of the nursery. Mom bought these cute letters for Andrew. You can also see the "pillow" style bumper that I bought. We decided not to keep it in the crib until he's old enough to roll over, but it's so cute I had to set it up for now :)

Poor Molly! She developed a condition called "cherry eye." It's not harmful or painful for her, but her 3rd eyelid pops out every now and then. It usually stays like this for about a day and then goes back to normal! The vet said it's no big deal??? Looks AWFUL though! Poor pup!

Well, it's that time of year again where Matt busts out his plastic nativity set! Our agreement is that I get to decorate the inside and he gets the outside! Carnivale!! Hahaha. This year we have 2 new additions to the nativity (which happen to be blocking your view of Baby Jesus)! Here's our new pup, Minnie (her Santa hat is falling off) and sweet Molly!


Prepping the pups for their nativity photo shoot. You all know that Molly is my princess pup and stays in the house/has full reign of the house. Minnie is our latest addition. I haven't blogged about her yet because I wasn't sure she was going to last at our house, but it looks like she's a keeper! Minnie was the pup of a friend of ours. We dog sat her for a week about 6 months ago and then gave her back to her owners. Well, our friends' landlord made them get rid of her so they took her to the humane society, which is about a mile from our house. Apparently, Minnie escaped the humane society, recognized the area, and found our house! One morning at about 6am she was literally knocking on our front door! We figured any dog who is that smart and who was begging for a new home deserved a chance so we kept her on a trial basis. She is VERY smart and a good dog! HOWEVER, she is an OUTSIDE dog only! We have a doggie door and she is smart enough to not come inside (even though Molly comes and goes as she pleases)! So...now we have Molly and Minnie (even her name was a perfect fit for our little fam)! Minnie rides in the truck with Matt to go out in the field and go on adventures, while Molly stays home with me snuggled up! Perfection!

YAY!! I've been waiting for an updated post of your belly & nursery! You are such a cute mama & love the bumper! And--Molly's outfit is cracking me up. What a trooper to let you dress her up! I'm glad she has a new friend. :)

You look so good, Thia!!! Cute, cute, cute! Give that sweet belly a rub for me. :)

I love the nursery letters and bumper, too. Can you believe that you will have a sweet little babe to lay in that crib very, very soon?!?!

The dogs look precious and the plastic nativity story is hysterical! My sister-in-law and brother-in-law have that same set in front of their house. They both LOVE that nativity. Well, one year some of their best friends stole baby Jesus. They took pictures of him (Him?) and even sent a ransom note. Ha! ;)

LOVE the belly!! Less than 5 weeks until baby Drew is here! Katelyn is dying to meet her cousin! I just keep thinking about next Christmas and how much fun it's going to be! Minnie is a cutie too...glad she is a keeper! I am sure Molly likes the company (every now and then at least)!
