belly buttons, a lemon, and hair

 Excuses are like belly buttons, everyone has one.

My excuse for not blogging in a long time is approximately the size of a lemon: 

Yep, we're expecting our 2nd baby the first week in September!!

I've felt much different this pregnancy. I have been sick a lot and the cravings are UNREAL. Basically anything sweet sounds good morning, noon, and night. Valentines candy and Easter candy being spread across the grocery store isn't helping the situation in any way. Did I mention the little girls dressed in green sashes posted outside? mmhmm. 

Does this mean it's a boy?! We'll see :) 

We've been taking it easy around here. Lily has been wonderful! She reads books all by herself and is generally becoming more "independent", which has been a huge help to me. 

I'll post on her birthday in the next few days. We had a party and it was lots of fun, definitely a whirlwind!

Two pictures from Instagram (for those not on Instagram) of Lily:

 We got her hair in a pony-tail!
