How did that happen...

I have a two month old. It's seems crazy that he is already two whole months old! Then it also seems like we have had him forever. I already can not imagine life without him. He consumes me. I love him more than I could ever imagine. I thought I would make a list of some of Keegan's favorite things right now: his paci which we affectionally call "puppy", his skip hot mirror, his changing pad (oddly enough he could lay there for hours talking and playing), his little giraffe blanket and the story "I Love You Through and Through".




These are some photos from our little photo session. It's hard to take photos of a two month old by yourself. He is so cute anything would be cute, but I may be a little biased.












We are headed to the doctor tomorrow for the dreaded two month apoitment where he will be getting shots. Hopefully it will not be as bad as what I am imagining.

Should I?

I am thinking of coming back to the blogging world. My life has totally changed since the last time I was here. I am now a mommy to the most beautiful baby boy that you have ever seen, as well as a stay at home mommy. I am loving every minute of it. Yes, it is hard at times but I would not trade it for a minute. It does not get better than him sleeping on my chest as I write this. If someone would have told me that being a stay at home mom was going to be harder than being a special needs preschool teacher to 15 children I would have laughed. Oh how I was wrong this is more than a full time job, you put in more than 40 hours a week you have to be on 24 hours a day. It is long days but the most rewarding thing I could ever imagine. Being a mommy is my calling from God. I want to be the best mommy I can be for him. So I am going to start the chronicles of his life. There will be lots of pictures of my beautiful baby boy as well as my path to trying to get back in shape and juggling life as a new mom. I am having fun and laughing at myself as I try to manage to do it all. I want to be super mom but sometimes even super mom has a messy house, because when all Keegan wants to do is cuddle and sleep in my arms that okay with me because the dirty house will wait but these are the moments I live for. So here goes, I am entering the world of a mom who blogs things should be interesting. I will leave you with a picture of my baby burrito from last night. Enjoy

Happy Anniversary Weekend

Friday morning we set out on our first real vacation just the two of us in a long time. We go places all the time but they are usually tacked on the the end of business trip or with friends and family. It was fun to set off just the two of us well three actually Keegan was kicking like crazy all weekend. It was great to spend so much time with my hubs just the two of us. Life gets so crazy and he travels all the time and I work and come home exhausted that sometimes quality time just does not happen. So that's what we had, a long weekend of quality time.
On our way to Savannah we decided to stop by ikea in Atlanta because we do not often find our way over and there was a light I knew I wanted for the nursery. We ended up getting all of the lighting, floor lamp, table lamp and the original pendant lamp. It was all a great price and just what I was looking for. Since I found out that I was pregnant had a boys room planned out. Guess it was my subconscious knowing it was a boy because I was clueless on a girl! After our detour we were back on the road. We got to savannah around 5:30 got checked in and hit River Street.






There was so much to take in and it was all so very old. The rivers edge was so pretty and all the people were enjoying themselves. It was odd because they do not have an open container law so everyone walks around with a drink. There are only a million places to eat. We choose The Cotton Exchange the first night by recommendation of an old friend. It was very yummy with shrimp and grits :) this southern girl loves shrimp and grits





After dinner we made a pit stop at a yummy candy store and I got a caramel apple one of my only craving while I have been pregnant.


We did a little shopping mostly just looking at all the people an taking it all in. We ended up turning in early after a long day of driving. It was a great first day. Day two coming once we are home and I have all the pictures!

Introducing Mr. Keegan Keeley

Yesterday morning we had an ultrasound. I was so excited but also nervous. I could not wait to see my little one but was also nervous to see him after such a long time. I wanted him to be perfect and healthy. After having to wait for a while we were finally called back. Then the ultrasound lady started but had the screen turned towards her so she could do all the official business first taking measurements and what not. Then she turned the screen and there was our sweet angle. I was already so in love then I saw his face and he is beautiful. I started crying while laying there hold Seans hand seeing our sweet angles face for the first time. Oh I have never felt such joy. Then came hearing his heart beat and to me that is just so magical. God is truly amazing. After seeing his face it was time to find out gender. After a little shaking to get him moving he let us know that he was all boy and we were just thrilled we honestly did not care one way or another. A boy is great and I thought oh I will have a mamas boy :). I have to say this was one the most exciting days of my life this far. After we left the doctor we grabbed some breakfast to kill time before the shops opened. I was dying to buy some sweet blue things :). We did buy some super cute things but with our big trip to Savannah I did not go too crazy just two outfits and a burp cloth with his initial on it. I am so in love with this little angel growing inside of me.

Heaven on earth

Hello from the beach! Actually laying on the beach now soaking in the last little bit of sun before time to go home. It has been a great trip full of good fun friends and relaxation. Just what the doctor ordered! Sean completed his ride yesterday of 75 miles and I was beyond proud of him for this accomplishment. It was so fun to stand at the finish line cheering him in!
My mom and I spent the day on the beach with my Aunt Cindy we went to eat at the yummy Shrimp Basket. I love the beach so much just wish I could bring my own bed down because I did not sleep but I thankfully could just spend my day relaxing away.






I will post race pictures once I get home and put them on my computer.
Tomorrow we have a doctors appointment and we are going to beg to see if we could do an ultrasound. Hopefully he will say yes and we will get to find out the sex of our little bundle of joy!!! So excited I can't wait!

16 weeks

We have made it to 16 weeks!!! Things are going pretty smoothly now most of the sickness is going away and I almost feel human again! I am looking forward to a little vacation this weekend. The hubs is doing a bike ride for MS this weekend so I will be heading down Friday after work to spend some time at my favorite place in the world. I hope to soak up so good sun and eat some yummy seafood. I took my first "baby bump" picture last night I will try to post it sometime this week. There is not too much there and my dad lovingly referred as a beer gut. Sweet I know. Now to watch my 90210 and glee!!

Big News :)



So, I am a terrible blogger but at least I have a good excuse. WE ARE HAVING A BABY!!!! We are so excited we are almost 16 weeks along now. The first trimester was a doozy and the so far the second is better but I am still not out of the clear yet. Hopefully soon I will turn that corner. They say that morning sickness or as mine is all day or evening sickness means healthy baby so I will take it! I have started showing a little and it is both very exciting and a very strange thing. It is still not all the way a bump but more bump the fat looking so that is very exciting. That is where I have been and hopefully I can start blogging more to keep up with how things are going and I want to start back being active again. I am already not sleeping so I have been up since 5 am this morning and about to go get ready for a massage so I can't really complain :) Chloe is a bit upset that mommy is up so early cleaning and blogging. She keeps looking at me like you have to be kidding me it is Saturday and you are up why. Oh well baby Keeley is already calling all the shoots. Have a great weekend.
