Baby #3 Update

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas! I do have Christmas morning photos to upload but I'm trying to enjoy our last couple of days with Jason before he leaves on Saturday. We are having a New Year's Eve party tomorrow with a lot of Jack's friends, so I'll have those photos to add as well. But to keep you going, here are a few.

As you can see, the boys visited Santa. Jack LOVED it, Ethan not so much. But we didn't even bother to take Jack his second year, as we knew he wouldn't enjoy it. I think this is a pretty good picture with Ethan, considering how unhappy he was!


On Monday we went to have our 20 (+) week ultrasound. We went to see a perinatologist since we opted not to do any genetic testing. I swear, they really want "older" parents to go through the ringer. But they do a more in-depth look at the baby, which is always a good thing. They did spend a lot of time looking at the heart, which concerned us at first, but it was only because they couldn't get a good view as he was laying face down. And, yes, it's going to be another BOY!!! We are beyond excited to have another brother for these two.

The doctor said everything looked good and was measuring just right for how far along I am. He currently weighs just under 2 pounds. Of course, everything looked good at this stage for Ethan too, it wasn't until the end of the pregnancy when the bones measured short. But our only concern was that he was healthy, which he appears to be.

We are now working on picking out names and taking suggestions. Right now the front runner seems to be Wyatt but who knows....

Wishing you all a Happy New Year's. Be safe and we'll chat in the new year.

All our love from the Cornwell's.

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was...

My Week

 Jason left last Saturday (the 4th) for his two week Army Annual Training and we sent him off with a nighttime treat before he left.  I love this photo of my boys, as they all look so happy and the small ones look so grown up - especially Ethan.  We couldn't pry that cup of frozen yogurt away from him!!  And, as usual, when Jason leaves all hell breaks loose.  Tuesday night we were all getting ready for bed and I was getting Ethan and Wyatt out of the bathtub when Wyatt slipped and banged his chin on the edge.  Normally Wyatt gets out first but this time I got Ethan and that just drove him crazy.  He was jumping up and down and as soon as I told him to stop he slipped.  I thought he had just cut his lip or his gums as I only saw blood but then he titled his head up and I saw his chin - too much of the inside of the chin.  I got him dried off, and kept a washcloth to his chin but knew I needed to get him to the ER.  But the last th...

Master Closet Overhaul

 We have this ridiculously large walk-in closet in our master bedroom and over time it has been overtaken with STUFF. So I decided I was tired of looking at the mess and it was time to clean it out and up.  Take a look...  I can't believe it went from this... To this!  I love walking in here now and actually find myself looking for reasons to go into my closet.  Along with just weeding out old clothes and items I no longer wore or needed (you should see the pile of stuff that was donated!) I made some changes to the room too.   One of them was my shoe racks. I've long wanted a tall shoe rack to go alongside the built in shelves but I knew it would never get off my husband's to-do list so I took matters into my own hands!!  It's not exactly what I had envisioned but it works and I'm happy with it. Thanks Target for the shelves.  Over the past few years I have developed a deep love for scarves and now own several....
