Shutterfly Fun!

I love to send out personalized cards each year at Christmastime and this year there is no exception! This year, Shutterfly has given me 50 free cards because I am a blogger, and all I have to do is to tell you about all the great deals you can find on this awesome website, so here goes!

I started using Shutterfly right after Ava was born. The pictures we had taken at the hospital gave us a gift card to use with Shutterfly, and when we ordered a second batch we got another gift card as well! On top of all that, we got a third gift card from registering at Target. Add it all up and that made $30 in gift cards! I used the gift cards to create and send out Ava’s birth announcements! You can do the same by clicking on this link: http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/announcements/birth-announcements?c=60401! There are so many unique styles to choose from!

Another purchase I have made from Shutterfly in the past year was a really BIG purchase. And when I say BIG, I don’t mean pricey….I mean LARGE! I had Shutterfly enlarge some of our first family portraits so that I could make a beautiful photo collage on our living room wall! See the picture below?


Shutterfly had the best prices around when it came to enlargements. They also shipped everything so carefully that it made it to our house in tip top shape! If you need to get any prints enlarged for a gift or for yourself click here: http://www.shutterfly.com/prints/large-format-prints!

My sister has made Ava two really special books with Shutterfly. One of the photobooks was a present to her when she was first born! It has pictures of all her family members and pictures of where she lives and everything! It was the perfect gift! The other book she made for Ava is an alphabet book that has pictures of Ava holding everyday items that begin with different letters of the alphabet. These photobooks are the best gifts because they really come from the heart! If you’d like to make one, you can get all the details by clicking this link: http://www.shutterfly.com/photo-books

Finally, my most favorite thing Shutterfly has to offer! Christmas Cards! You have got to take a look at the hundreds of different types of Christmas cards! You can personalize the sayings and edit pictures and decide how many photos you want on the card and even where they are placed! It’s like you own your own card making studio, and of course it’s all at a terrific price! Click the link below to see all of the magnificent cards you can choose from! I’ll reveal my own personal cards in the mail of course! Unless, we run out, and if that’s the case I’ll post it on here so that everyone can see how great Shutterfly does! http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/christmas-cards

Well, that’s it for now! I am so happy I had a chance to tell you about all the great deals on Shutterfly! Check it out for yourself and make something special for someone you love! Merry Christmas!

Ultrasound #2

Yesterday Kyle and I went for our second ultrasound. Our doctor was not 100% sure of Ava's position so she ordered us another one. We were both excited and anxious to see Ava again. Boy, is it different from 19 weeks to 37. She looks so smooshed in there! We got a picture of her beautiful profile and another that ensured us she is still a girl! We got to see her spine, her brain, her heart beating rapidly, and even her full little bladder. (Mine was about to pop since I had to wait 2 hours without using the bathroom. That was no fun at all!) The ultrasound showed us three main things. 1. Ava's definitely in the heads down position, 2. it looks like I am 37 1/2 weeks pregnant instead of just 37, and 3. She looks like she weighs about 7 lbs 9 oz. as of right now. The ultrasound tech kept telling us that her weight is an approximate. He said sometimes they are so close it's scary or so far off it's embarrassing ! Anyway, she sounds like she's at a heal...

Adley's Birth Story

I have been a little overloaded in life and let our blog go to the back burner!  But, I must write about sweet Adley's birth story just like I did with Ava and Anniston :) On June 8, after a sleepless night, Kyle and I got up and got ready to head to the hospital to meet our third precious girl.  To say I was nervous would be the biggest understatement ever.  Even though I had gone through 2 csections before, it didn't mean I wasn't scared and nervous....it's a big, scary surgery!  Mostly I was just afraid of the needle.... We arrived at the hospital, checked in, and started getting prepped for surgery.  First came the beautiful gown (I was so happy it wasn't the paper/plastic gown like I had with Anniston...I sweat to death in that gown), then came blood work and the IV, which I was not excited about....I hate needles.  And then the VERY worst part started.  Waiting.  Waiting for the magical hour of 7:30 am.  It took forever.  I was...

January's Over.....What?!?

Where has the time gone? I can not believe January is just about over. Things have been crazy busy in our home, but still great nonetheless. Ava's getting so big! She's rolling over from back to belly and belly to back, she's playing with toys (her favorite is a monkey we named Milo), she's laughing and "talking" all the time; her personality is really starting to shine through. I can't believe our baby is going to be 4 months old in about a week. CRAZY! Other updates on our girl.....she's sleeping through the night, we were blessed that she started doing that at 6 weeks ( Babywise really helped with this!) She's getting rice cereal in two bottles a day during the week and she's also taking Prevacid . Both of these are because of her horrible reflux. They seem to be helping quite a bit. She spends the weekdays with our wonderful babysitter here at home and they love each other! In March she'll start going to daycare. I am a little nervous ...
