7 Months

Harvey has really grown up this last month, I can't believe how fast time is going. I really wish it would just slow down!

Harvey is sitting up all on his own now, he can army crawl like nobody's business, he's ALWAYS happy and such a good baby,  loves shoes (gross) and cords (dangerous) he loves anything he can make noise with, love water bottles, bath time,  an usually takes 2 naps a day still. Still gets so excited when dad gets home from work.( it's my favorite thing to watch, makes my heart so happy)  eats fruits but doesn't really love any texture so he pretty much gags every time :) no teeth yet, but I'm pretty sure they are coming in. Loves his toys and his blankie and loves his mama ❤

Harvey you are my favorite person to be around. I'm so grateful that I get to be your mom! You make me so happy! The love I have for you is so strong and so unexplainable.  I love you so so much you are the greatest thing that has ever happen to me. You are just a little body of joy!

6 Months

Everyday I thank my Heavenly Father for my sweet Harvey! He has brought me so much joy these past 6 mouths. He  makes us so happy everyday. He is such a happy baby and has the sweetest spirit. He is the best thing that ever happened to us. We love the sweet spirit he brings to our home and all the blessings he has brought us.

I'm so grateful for my healthy, happy baby. He is the greatest thing ever. I'm so thankful to be his mother. I'm so thankful that I have been giving the opportunity to raise this sweet boy. I hope that I can be a good example to him help him become a good man someday. I love him so much 

Harvey's First Halloween!

Today was a blast! Even though Dad is out of town, we still had lost of fun! Doug and Chelsie have an awesome Halloween party every year so thats where we ended up. Lots of good food, friends and family. Harvey was extra happy tonight and extra cute! Happy Halloween from this cute cow! MOOO 

Halle, Harvey, & Oliver

single mom.

Mark has been out of town for about 2 weeks now. It has been the longest two weeks of my life! I always hate when he has to leave out of town but for some reason this time was extra hard. So Harvey and I have been enjoying eachothers compay while Dads away. The days arent too bad, we are usually busy and runngin around, but the nights are so hard. Thankfully we will be reunited tomorrow! I cant wait to see him, and i cant wait for him to see Harvey. For the last two weeks Harvey has been (what Chelsea refers to him as) an angel baby! He's been nothing but smiles and giggles.

Needing to catch up!

So it's been a while since I updated our blog! A lot has happened since my last post, we finally had our little baby boy and he's the greatest thing that has ever happened to us but has made life a little more crazy than usual. SO thats my excuse for not keeping up on the blog! I have lots to post about so the next couple of weeks we will be playing catch up...

It's a BOY!!!!

Yes it's true... I'm pregnant! 22 weeks in fact. And no I couldn't really believe it either! 

When I took that test I really wasn't expecting it to be positive and when it was I didn't know what to think. So many emotions ran through me, I was excited, scared, nervous and unbelievably happy! I couldn't stop smiling and couldn't wait to tell Mark. 

After all the happiness, then came the morning, afternoon and the all night sickness... I was so sick I couldn't do anything. My house was dirty for about 16 weeks, the laundry never got done and dinner wasn't made very often. Now that I am 22 weeks I couldn't be feeling any better, I wish I could be pregnant all the time feeling like this! It really is amazing how Heavenly Father erases your memory of all the bad things that come along with getting these sweet spirits here. 

5 WEEKS

20 WEEKS

 

This whole time I've been pregnant I was so convinced that it was a girl but to my surprise.... It's a boy! I really can't believe that we're having a boy. I am so excited to have a cute little Mark running around my house, playing with his dad and cuddling with his mom. It's so crazy to me how much i LOVE this little babe inside me right now. I can't wait to meet him and can't wait to be his mama. I'm so grateful that I'm able to become a mom and bring this sweet spirit to this earth. 

Definitely a boy :)
