Brecken Art

Brecken drew this for me today. It's me and her. I'm the one with the circle for a belly :)

So art probably isn't a career for her... But I have to say, sentimental value... very high :)

Oh, and it is supposed to say Love, Brecken :)

It's A....

Well, I was gonna think of some clever way of revealing the news... but... let's face it, lately I've been a little on the lazy side. Then I thought about putting up a picture of the ultra sound and thought... well, that involves scanning, and most people just see "black and white blob" anyway. So then I thought... eh, what the hay. Just say it. So here goes. It's a...

GIRL!

Yep. I guess that's just how we roll. Girl number four. I must say I was a little surprised, but now that a full day has gone by since learning the news... I am very excited! I love my girls!!!

Another Video Debut

For some reason (he's just cute) Russ wants me to post the link rather than the video. It's Brecken doing a little demo at Russ's work... pretty cute... but I'm bias :)

So click on...

Brecken's Video

to watch :)

Made My Day

Shoot... made my weekend! My month!! Best hubby in the world. Thanks babe!

Happy Valentines Day!

Feeling Guilty... Taylor's Latest

Ok, it was a LITTLE lazy of me to not add any pictures (even though I am sick) to the last post. So I pulled out my phone, used the camera function, snapped this video, and I'm putting up here for all of you to see...

Taylor's Latest...

The only things this doesn't quite capture are her two favorite words: "No" and "Eat"

It's Only Fair

Welp, for the first time ever (ok, fourth) I am going to post without pictures (it was either that or don't post at all... which is tempting).

So what happens when trimester one is over, you're still sick off and on, soon things start looking up, then you have a week practically nausea free?

I guess the only fair thing would be for life to throw a cold your way. Complete with sore throat, of course. But to soften the blow, I was spared a cough. For now.

But I really don't want to complain. We are so blessed. Russ is such a hard worker, and has a wonderful job, Brecken is trying to be a good girl, Taylor is growing and learning every day, our needs are always being met, I live in a place where the sun mostly shines, I have the best sister-in-law literally down the street. Heavenly Father has been very, very good to us.

Excuses. Excuses.

Well, I'm sure you've guessed... But I have a few for why I haven't blogged. Or been on email. Or facebook. Ok, been online altogether. And instead of play catch up, I'm gonna list my excuses.

Not in any particular order:

Excuse number one:

We got new carpet. So? You may ask. Well I'll tell you the so. The office chair (yep, the one that sits in front of the computer) got moved to the garage. And, well, it hasn't been moved back. Hopping online isn't quite as appealing without a chair to sit on... and I don't really feel like moving the chair back from the garage. Such a hassle. (but today I had an epiphany... grab Russ's laptop and take it to the couch. ha!)

Excuse number two:

I haven't been taking pictures. (No, I will not provide excuses for excuses). And we all know that I am not going to post without pictures. Where is the fun in that?

Excuse number three (and probably the biggest):

Lately I have been tired. A lot. Nauseous, now and again. And really, really...tired. And, well, since I am shirking in my regular duties... blogging kinda fell to the back burner. Actually it didn't even make the back burner. It got put in the fridge. But now that trimester one is out of the way (yes another baby Harrington is on the way), I'm feeling a wee bit better, and I think (don't hold me to it) I'll be back to my old blogging self.

And here is a LITTLE of the Harrington news...

Remember this guy?...

Welp, he is no more. Well, no more with us. We gave him to Russ's dad. I could say a lot more, but...

Taylor is still into eating. But now she's into doing it all by herself...

And into finding food, carrying off into a corner, and then doing it by herself...

And Brecken, well she is very excited for the baby in mommy's tummy to get here. This is a shot of her and little Lucy (our friend's little baby girl-so precious)...

And this was a clip Breck did a while back (note the christmas tree in the background) for a training Russ did. She was so cute that I thought I'd throw it up here...

And that's it. Til next post I guess.
