Christmas Cookie Time!

It's that time again: my annual trip to OC's main office in Toledo to spread some sugary love and thanks to all of the people who support me and my customers. They work hard to keep me in line :) Wish I made it there more often! Merry Cookie Christmas!

They're taking over the kitchen!

Not Much of a Belly Yet

Yay! We're 15 weeks now and rolling right along. I'm finally starting to feel a little more normal, but the mornings are still a little tricky. I never thought morning sickness would linger so long...it was definitely over with both Grant and Lilly by now. Must be a girl is what everyone tells us. Grant would agree. Every time we ask him what he wants he says "girl like Lilly." Too sweet!

I've never been one to really show enough for people to figure out anything until closer to 18 or 20 weeks, but my clothes are not the most comfortable anymore. I'm not rushing it...I'll have a huge belly long enough :) Even with this being my third, it's still just as exciting as the first!

You Know You're a Mom...

...when you get SUPER excited to find this on your porch after a long day of work! I had this on my Christmas list...I know - lame, right, but my laundry days just got a lot easier. I don't even know who sent it yet, but it is GREAT! I've never seen anything like it!

We only dry sock, underwear, and clothes we really don't care about. All of the kids clothes and our nicer things go straight to the drying rack. If you've never tried it I would highly recommend it...our clothes last SO much longer! I've used the same Wal-Mart drying rack since I was a freshman in college so you can imagine how many loads of laundry it's been through. But, it's been a faithful follower of this gal all over the Midwest - I kind of hate to retire it. Funny how you get attached to the strangest things.

Wow, I just re-read this post before publishing it...I'm such a dork. But, admit it: you're jealous, and you know you want want too.

Happy Belated Fall!

We've made it an annual tradition to have professional family photos taken every fall with our wedding photographer who is incredibly talented. He never disappoints us and seems to come up with something new every year. Although our babies aren't the most fond of the camera we were so happy with the results! Check out his work: Chad Franz.

We Have Cloned

Tim's been putting together a project for school that involves his entire life story in pictures. He's been digging through the hundreds (maybe even thousands!) of pictures between his parents and our growing library. There's a lot of classics that are just adorable of my sweet husband, but this one completely took my breath away. I am officially announcing that Tim and I have successfully cloned a Kegley in the form of a short, 22 lb., 18 month old little lady. I need to call NBC and get this on the news. Is this not crazy????? I am in awe every time I look at it...maybe it's just me...or it might be the pregnancy brain...that really does exist. I swear! Love these cutie pies!

Workin' on a Full House

` Baby Kegley #3 at 7 weeks!

We are beyond excited to announce that another little Kegley will join our family in June! Blessed...we just feel so blessed and grateful for the miracle of new life that God has given us. We are officially 13 weeks today and our due date is set for June 8th. Another June baby!! If this one is anything like Grant or Lilly, I will NOT deliver early. Fingers crossed because I need to be at Tim's graduation in May!

I am SO grateful for this pregnancy, but wow this has been toughest of the three! Hormones are NO joke. I'm extremely nauseous literally 24/7 and the heartburn is out of control...I like to picture a herd of angry trolls running up and down my esophagus twirling fire batons. We switched OB's this time around and will deliver at Community North. We had to cut down on the drive time in case Baby #3 wants to come as fast as Lilly did!! Pretty sure I'll be packing an emergency kit in case we deliver in the car...I'm seriously worried about that!

I just cant' describe to you how excited we are!!! Babies are such blessings. The best times of my recent life have been when I'm pregnant. I feel so fulfilled -I think because I know God is using me for such a tremendous purpose. Thank you God for this child! I can't wait to see Grant and Lilly with a new baby in the house! We'll keep you updated with the progress and some belly shots soon. Feels good that the secret is now out!
