iPhone Pictures (overload)

I have finally gotten around to putting my pictures from my iPhone on to the computer...all 500+ pictures and videos.

So I thought I would share some or a lot of my favorites. Also I just came across an app called Instagram to edit my pictures so some are from that. If you know of any other apps for editing, please share.

(I believe they are in order from most current to oldest)

Me and my new hat....I love!

BIG NEWS!!!!

I...AM...OFFICALLY...A...STAY AT HOME MOM/WIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Life could not get any better. Brad and I have been doing lots of talking, planning, praying and with answered prayers and a little help from our families, this has become possible for us. I could not be more happier with this decision. I pray that it all works out so I can stay home with the baby as long as I can.

I will be putting Kynlie in a Mothers Day Out program at a local church. (unfortunately, not the church we attend, but it's the next best one) It's Mondays and Wednesdays 8 to 2. This will give me time to spend with the baby and hopefully get things done around the house. I think she is going to love it.

[these are also from Polka Fest weekend in May]


I've only been a SAHM/W for 3 days now. I had all these wonderful ideas and plans of what I was going to do and get done around the house my first week. Guess what? I haven't done hardly any of them LOL. I've been spending time with Kyn and relaxing a little bit. (my job I just left really took it out of me) So maybe next week I'll get started on my "to do list": clean bath rooms, get caught up on laundry, put all the baby clothes away, get ready for a garage sale, etc...

Baby News:
I am growing like a weed or my belly is at least.
He is still ALL BOY!!!
No name :(
My due date changed from August 19 to August 15!! so he maybe here a lot sooner than we thought!!
He is always moving, day and night! Hopefully that doesn't mean he's not going to sleep for me?!
I can not wait to share his nursery, once we have it complete. His bedding is being made by a friends mom and I haven't received it yet.

Kynlie News:
She is growing so fast these days (another reason I had to quit my job, I'm missing too much)
She just started swim lessons yesterday!! She loves it!! She's already a fish in the water, so I'm not worried about her doing well
***side note for myself to remember: I dropped her off yesterday at swim and when I got in my car.....I cried like a little baby!! I laugh now, but yesterday I felt as if I was dropping her off for high school. Weird, maybe, but my girl is growing up on me.
She's carrying on more conversations with Brad and I and talking like a little girl and not so much as a toddler.
She is still the funnies girl I know!! Brad and I laugh more at her than anything else. I LOVE her personality. I hope it sticks with her
She is still ALL girl. Love's pink, jewelry, dolls, purses, bows, dresses, high heel shoes, pretending to be a mommy, etc... (I think she will be an awesome big sis)
BUT, she loves the out doors, swimming, riding the horses, loving on animals (she didn't get that from me), riding four wheelers, but does not like getting her hands dirty HA. She will ask me to wipe them off if there is any dirt at all on them. My child through and through HA!

So now I should have "more time" on my hands to sit and blog and keep a better update on our family!! I need to get back into my picture taking as well. I miss it!

Pictures of my girl, BABY UPDATE, & Chit Chat

Yes it's been nearly 2 months since I've made a post. Not sure why, other than I just haven't sat down to do it. My lap top is broke and that's what I'd rather work on than my desk top (what I'm not now)...it's slow!!

Anyways, things are pretty good around here. I have a "new" job. Still working at a doctors office but with a little change. The original office I started working for a year ago split and I was asked to go with the Dr. that started his own practice. BEST DECISION EVER!!!!

As for the pregnancy, I am 21 weeks alreay!! HALFWAY!!! It's going wonderful!!! I wish I was better at doing weekly updates. Maybe when I get my LT fixed I'll get better. We did find out what we are having!

WE............ARE...........HAVING.................A........................................

BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My husband, daddy, and daddy n law are thrilled to death!!! I am too, don't get me wrong, but the men in the family are acting as if they won the lottery. I guess they kinda have, but he will be better than the lottery!! ;)

We do not have a name picked out just yet, but we are leaning toward one. Kolby Gene Kubin. How does that sound? Kynlie and Kolby! Has a nice ring to it. Gene is Bradley's dads name (the man above with Kyn) I like the "K" names but don't necessarily have to use one.

Any suggestions on a name???

Kynlie June is doing just fine!! She's going through a little "terrible 2's" some days and I want to pull my hair out, but then I just remember how blessed I am to have her!!! I look at her sweet face and can't help to love her even more. I know this will pass......I hope HA!

She is by far the funniest little girl I know. I'm told this by lots of people and I see it first hand. She must get it from her daddy!!

I say this every post, but I promise to get better. Not just for my some amount of reads and my mom, but for my self!!

13 Weeks & More

I'm 13 weeks and 3 days today. I skipped 12 weeks, because I was out with the flu and stomach bug all at the same time. It was awful!! I'm better now. Thank you Lord!

(please excuse my face and hair. It had been a long day)

Baby Sister or Brother:

Length 3.1 in
Weight 0.9 oz
About the size of a Peach

I'm still as excited as ever to be pregnant again. I have my next apt tomorrow. I'm so excited to go. I hope the doctor can try very hard to tell us what we are having. If not, then I'm sure the next apt he can.

I'm feeling a lot better. Morning sickness has seem to pretty much pass. I have found though, I still get a little nauseous at night. I defiantly am showing a lot. I look further a long than I am. They say you show really fast with your second. I also show fast because I'm so short and have very little room between my rib cage and hip bone, so it has no choice but to go straight out.

**************************************************************************

This past week we had some cold weather. I forgot I lived in Texas for a minute. We had a few days of ice, but then one beautiful day of snow. I was pretty much under the weather that week, so I didn't have to get out in it. I did manage to step out side with Bradley and Kynlie to get a few pictures of her, then I went back in. Kynlie loved the snow!

Today I made a prayer journal for my mother n law. It turned out great!! I can not take credit for this cute idea. I saw it on a blog I love to read. Love From Texas. She's very crafty and seems like a sweet girl. I'd love to meet her one day. I can not wait to make more for myself and for friends and family. Only thing different about mine is the size. I could not find the small size note books any where, so I use the regular size. I'm still on the look out for the small ones. Seems to be the perfect size.

Last but certainly not least. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my sweet, loving, caring, HANDSOME, & funny husband!! You truly are the love of my life. I thank God for putting you in my life everyday. I do not deserve such an awesome husband, but I will show you and God how appreciative I am to have you. I love you with every bit of my heart!

Oh BABY 11 Weeks

BABY!! Another BABY!!!! We are having another BABY!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so excited!!! I have been wanting to do this post for so long now, I just now found the time (not really, I'm just making myself HA)

I feel like I've been pregnant for so long. We found out December 10 and I was just barely pregnant. Lucky me, I work at a doctors office, so I had a free pregnancy test and it showed up in minutes! We told our family on Christmas. Kynlie wore this cute little dress a friend of mine made. The letters started to come off by the second wear and lots of hugs and playing. It said "Santa....I'm A BIG SIS"

I am 11 weeks today. Yes, I know, I look a lot further along than 11 weeks. I'm going to be big! I purposely cut my face out of this picture because I do not look so hot tonight. (rough day at work, cried my make-up off, and there was no point in re-applying)

Baby Sister or Brother:
Size of a Fig
About 1.6 in 0.2 oz
The eyelids are fuse shut, the iris will begin to develop and finger nails appear!
Due date still remains August 19, 2011

********************************************************************
Funny Story. Bradley wants a boy so bad. Who can blame him? He's a guy and what guy doesn't want a son (to go along with his sweet daughter), but me I'm wanting another girl. I've always wanted a sister. I love my brother, but would loved to had a sister too. I now have two SIN's and that's just fine. I want Kynlie to have that bond sisters have and I LOVE buying girly things. Anyways, Bradley and I joke around with each other about if it's a baby brother or baby sister. Kynlie has caught on and of course she does and says everything her momma says. So anytime Bradley say's something like "tell baby brother good night" Kynlie gets so mad and say "daddy, dat not baby brudder, it seester". She tells everyone she's having a "seester" She always tells me randomly "daddy not say baby brudder". I have my work cut out for me trying to convenes her different, if we have boy.
Now to clear things up. I will be just as blessed and happy with a boy and love him just as much.

My next apt is Valentines Day. A bitter sweet day for me. It's the day both my grandparents passed away, just 7 years apart. My Ma who passed way 2/14/01 her bday is August 24. Not that I would like to go over on my due date (like I did with Kyn), but I wouldn't mind having the baby on her sweet bday.

Speaking of bday's, Kynlie and baby will only be about 3 weeks apart in bdays. OH DEAR!!

I promise to keep a weekly update. Specially for me and for my family who reads!

I'm here...Promise

For those who do not remember me, I'm Christie! I'm the one who created this blog for myself and family, I'm the one who has slacked off on writing :(

I'm doing my best to get back in the swing of things. I love blogging! It used to be a weekly, sometimes daily outlet for me. But don't worry, I still make sure I get my daily blog reading in. I love to check in on my real life friends and blog friends, who I'd love to meet.

I thought I would share just a few pictures of the snow that flew in last week. Sadly it didn't stay long, but it was pretty while it lasted.

[I LOVE our American flag...I LOVE America]

If you are still there and check in our sweet family, I sure hope you'll come back. I have some great things to blog about very soon!!

Much love to everyone!!
