1 Scheller, 2 Scheller, 3 Scheller... 4!

Today, on September 11, 2014, we got the news that we have been aching for for the last 18 months.  After some difficulty, we got a positive (make it 2, I just had to) pregnancy tests!  I knew that I could take a test Monday, and did, but the stupid thing was invalid.  The control line didn't show up.  It said to wait 3 days and take another.  I honestly thought my cycle was about to start, but today I felt just a little sicky throughout the day.  I also noted to Zach last week that I could barely muster the will to do my workouts several days.  I didn't take a test in the morning because it just didn't cross my mind that I would be pregnant.  So I held my pee for about two hours, and figured I was enough days post- ovulation that it wouldn't matter what time of day it was.  Zach knocked on the bathroom door and asked if I was taking a test and I told him I was.  I laid it on the tub and immediately yanked the shower curtain closed so I couldn't peek.  I've seen plenty of negative pregnancy tests, so I pretty much just expected to see more of the same.  I pulled the curtain back slowly and immediately was shocked to see a VERY positive plus sign in the window.  I called Zach in and just kept saying, "Honey.... Honey..." over and over again, dotted with "I can't believe it."  It was like we in a dream looking in on someone else, because surely this couldn't be real life. 

First family picture of 4!
Getting excited! And still in disbelief!
Nellie wanted to try on a onesie!

BS #3- 22 weeks

22 weeks with Reid, Savannah, and BS #3! 😍 How far along: 22 weeks  Weight gain- up 7 lbs overall. I have been eating more sweets this week and need to reign it in! Buttttt.... Exercise- Reid, Zach, Savannah, and I did take a long walk today in our neighborhood and I’m hoping to do it daily.  Most exciting thing this week- baby girl had hiccups for the first time this week and I could feel them all! Zach also got to feel her a couple times for the first time this week! Same timing as he did with Savannah! So cool! Cravings- sweet, Chick- fil- a, Parlor doughnuts  Aversions/ anything making you sick- not this week! Yay!!! Reid’s thoughts- he still likes to kiss my belly and ran in and talk to baby and tell her how precious she is! One day he told her he can’t wait to see her in October! Savannah’s thoughts- I have started asking her when she’s laying on her changing table if Mama has a baby in her belly and one day she patted her own b...

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a.  They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich.  That in and of itself made my day! : )                                                       Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day.  We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't.   We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics.  Can you feel the romance? Haha.                     ...
