OUR LIVES TOGETHER

PATIENTLY WAITING.......

Everything is going great here in the Hill House - not too much to report these days other than wondering when our second daughter is going to bless us with her arrival! We are now 4 days away from my due date of September 25th! Taylor came 4 days early so we can't help but wonder if today is the day! We are so excited and can't wait to meet little Bentley! My wonderful mother gets into town today and will be here for an entire week! Taylor & Trigger are both so excited to see their Grandma Susie! I just hope that Bentley does come sometime during this week that she is here - NO pressure! The past two weeks have been kind of rough with getting the stomach flu twice (how does that happen?) , chasing an almost two year old all over the place and feeling like you have a giant beach ball in your tummy all the time - so it will be so nice to have my mom here to help! I know I say this all the time, but I am SO lucky to have such amazing friends & family! Thank you to all of you that have helped me out so much these past couple of weeks! I don't know what I would do without you!

Me in the nursery - 5 days before Bentley is "supposed" to be here

We can't wait to meet our little girl!

Taylor loves to play with all of my bags - she's already quite the shopper!

Taylor just playing & relaxing in her room

Taylor is going to be such a great BIG SISTER!

Trigger is also going to be a great Big Brother - I'm not sure if he really knows what is about to happen to his quiet little life. It used to be just him that got all of the attention & then Taylor joined our family! Now he will have 2 little princesses that look at him like he's a big jungle gym! What a good dog - we LOVE him!

Taylor & Mandy Abbott - Mandy has been SO good to me lately! I received a call from her basically telling me that she was coming to get Taylor and take her over to their house to play with her girls - 2 days in a row! What a blessing to have a little "ME" time before Bentley gets here! Besides I think Taylor enjoyed it more over there anyway! She loves her girls! And look at the fun things that she gets to do - ride in the car with NO carseat! What a cool mom Mandy is! Even if it was just around the corner :)

Taylor playing in the backyard in her Princess Castle. It's finally starting to cool off down here in the desert - it's been in the 80's & 90's! We finally can stand going outside during the day!

This is how a romantic dinner works in our house! Jordan has been taking such good care of me lately that I wanted to do something special for him, so I cooked him dinner & a special dessert! Taylor was right there to share the yummy meal with us - we had spaghetti pie!

I just got done doing Taylor's hair when she walked up to me to show that she finished Baby Cinderella's hair - How beautiful!

What a cutie! She LOVES fishy crackers!

Taylor will soon be the big sister and I can't believe it! She has grown so quickly! We can't imagine our lives without her!
