Make room for 1 more!

So we have been way busy with finishing off half of our basement to make room for our new little addition. Let me tell you it has been sooooooooo much work...well for Max! hee hee We only have 3 bedrooms upstairs and so literally 2 days after finding out we were pregnant, Max started working on this basement. He had to first build a ton of shelves to move all the storage I have down there and then get it all moved. It has been non stop with the electrical, plumbing, framing, heating vents, sheet rock....WHEW~ So we are getting so close and finally painting!

If any of you know my hubby he cant have an unfinished project...I gave him a deadline of 7 months pregnant to be finished so I could start working on the babes room. Here we are at 4 months pregnant and he is almost finished. He is a little crazy!!! But I love him for it.

So Kelt is going to be the big bro that gets his own new "HUNTING ROOM" downstairs and bathroom all to himself. I think it will take some getting used to being down away from all of us upstairs but like Max keeps telling him that Max will take the basement room and Kelt can bunk with me, LOL. That keeps Kelt pretty set on the basement bedroom. Sharing a room with his stepmom is not the coolest thing to do, hee hee.

Gracie started crying and was scared of Max when he was finished spraying, lol.


Kelts new Big Brother room...to get him away from the girls

Bathroom...doesn't look like much but after everything it has taken to get to this point, I was so excited!

Hallway

Ride Em Cowgirl...and some other happenings!

Gracie getting her nightly horsy ride from daddy! This girl NEVER has clothes on her only occasional accesory is her cowgirl boots!G and her favorite Aunt Maymee...her special Amy as she says. Aunt Maymee spoiled G of course and bought the little stinker anything she asked for. Even the $10 cotton candy, $25 princess light up wand, and the $15 snow cone in a tinkerbell cup.

Granna also spoiled G and bought the tickets for us all to go and even got us front row tickets. Our next little princess is going to love having Granna and Aunt Maymee!

To answer Britney's ?

We are due September 5. I most likely will have another C-Section so I might shoot for a few days earlier than that but out of the 26 of us Philpot's we dont have 1 September Birthday. So I am going to try to shoot for Sept.

Names...oh my the name battle! LOL Our boy name battle was much worse so I think we lucked out that way, hee hee. We have a name that I love and am set on and Max likes it but he still likes his name choice so he wont let us be 100% yet. The names are:

Ivy Drew Philpot

or

Faith Drew Philpot

(Drew after my dad...Kevin Drew Perschon, since we didn't get a boy to name Kevin)

We are still open for names so if anyone knows any cute ones send them my way!!! But I am pretty sure I will win the battle. Especially since Grace and I already call her baby Ivy! hee hee

...And so the GIRL TAKEOVER begins! Max & Kelt are out numbered

It's A....

Princess Party

Gracie still wont just look at the camera and give me a smile so this is the best we could do, LOL. I think she had so much fun though and they played games, ate snacks, had cake, and she was spoiled with presents from all her friends and family. Thank you to everyone who came for making this such a fun party for our little princess!

Big Hug for Brother!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY PRINCESS

I am sure I will be doing like 5 posts on G's bday. I just LOVE LOVE LOVE birthdays. I love planning the party, love seeing the smiles on their faces! G's sweet brother thought of the idea to decorate her door last night so she could wake up to it this morning. We all made her birthday cards since we all know how many pictures she draws for us and we thought...hmmm we all need to sit down and return the favor. I think they turned out cute! I think it will now be a Philpot tradition. It was so much fun. She loved it! She opened her presents from us and is so happy. Now to get ready for the big princess bash!!!

11 Weeks Pregnant and feeling HUGE already!

This Babe is having no problems growing...THANK GOODNESS! I have been so nervous that something is going to go wrong...way more than I was with Gracie. But we went to our appt last week and this little fetus measured a week further than we thought! So my doctor moved up my due date! I have gained 10 pounds so far which is right about on with what I did with Grace! I have been way way sick and I am so looking forward to hopefully feeling better in the 2nd trimester. All in all we are just so excited for this little peanut. Max cant even believe how excited he is. He was fine with only having two kids so with this surprise I was nervous on how he would be but he is more excited than me if you could imagine that.

I cant believe on the ultra sound how much they go from looking like a peanut to looking like a baby in only a month. So in our ultra sound out little fetus had legs, arms, head, eye's, ears, nose, and mouth. The whole nine yards!

Names is a whole other battle! LOL We have zero names for boy or girl that we love. With Grace we had a boy and girl name from the get go. So this is weird not to know yet. But, once we find out what we are having we will get serious on the names. Max thinks it is a girl and wants to be surrounded by girls I guess, LOL> I think it is a boy but find it will be easier if it is a girl because we have so much girl stuff. Either way we will be so happy!
