Go Fish!

Emma got her first pet today! This morning we headed out to Petland where Emma loved looking at the dogs, cats, birds, turtles, frogs and fish! In the entrance of Emma's school is a large fish tank and each day when she arrives and leaves, she says hi and bye to the fish. So we got a Betta fish - which is apparently a very low maintenance fish! We'll see!


We went to Cincinnati this weekend for our cousin Lindsay's baby shower and then enjoyed a cookout at Grandma and Grandpa Z's. Grandpa Z bought a new mustang convertible - so after dinner we pulled a "Britney Spears" and everyone got to go on a ride. Papa was in heaven!

Mom's last getaway!

Before Baby Weatherwax #2 comes, I headed out to visit Andrea in Washington DC. It was a great weekend full of fun! We ate lots of delicious food, saw the sights and just enjoyed spending time together. Above we are standing on the Georgetown waterfront (Kennedy Center is in the background). One unique thing we did was to get fish pedicures! The fish apparently nip at your dead skin on your feet (as seen on Good Morning America, The View, and the Today Show). It was very ticklish and our feet were pretty smooth. Check out our initial response below. We weren't so sure it was the most sanitary thing we've ever done! :)
Emma and John headed to Dayton for the weekend. John enjoyed some golf, and Emma and Grandma took some time to stop and admire the pretty flowers!

Easter 2009

It was a beautiful weekend in Columbus to celebrate Easter with both of our families. Emma looked darling! We had lunch and for the first time ever, Emma fell asleep in her high chair!

Emma also received a lot of fun treats in her basket- a bubble lawn mower, new clothes and shoes, a lawn chair and even golf clubs! Check out Emma's new shorts and her first putter - If her Dad's dreams come true - she'll be on tour in 2027! John will make a cute "daddy caddy" :)

Birthday's and Bunny!

Last weekend we traveled to Indy to visit Aunt Rebecca and celebrate "Ma's" /Grandma W's birthday. We enjoyed our time together and even got to do a little shopping. GG came with us
too and made a delicious homemade chocolate cake for the birthday girl! Mmmmmm... Hailey turned One yesterday! Her first year has flown by! She's on the verge of walking and enjoyed her chocolate cake - a very dainty eater!

You remember how Emma was with Santa Claus? For some reason, I thought the Easter might be different...WRONG! Again, we were able to stand 5+ feet away and wave and say "hi bunny" but as soon as we crossed the line - total fear came over her face and she was shaking. We quickly snapped a picture with Aunt Kim, and Cousins James and Hailey and got the heck out of there!


Here is Emma rocking her baby and doing one of her new tricks "winking." Too cute and I had to share! Have a great week!

St. Patty's Day!

Hello O'friends! Here's a picture of Emma and her darling shamrock dress. We hope you got outside to enjoy some of this beautiful weather! Emma also got to take a spin in her new wheels tonight! And I honestly believe Emma may have some "OCD" deep inside of her - as she is quite the cleaner. Watch as Emma vacuums with Daddy with her ball popper! Don't mind her ponytail on the top of her head...she was kickin it 80's style! haha

Ice cream, Donuts, and Candy....Oh MY!!


If you tilt your head to the left, you'll be looking eye to eye with baby Weatherwax! He/She weighs 1lb 4oz at this point, and heart rates have been in the 150s.

Yes, this has been one "sweet" pregnancy so far to say the least! I am due June 24th which puts me in my 23rd week. This pregnancy has flown by - and sometimes I forget I'm pregnant, oh that is until I look down! I'm notorious for not knowing which week I'm in, and for the longest time had the wrong due date! My docs call it placenta brain...

I'm not sure Emma understands what is going on at this point. She loves to look at my belly, and occasionally will say "baby." She loves other children and has a few doll babies here at the house. This being said, I'm sure she'll be a wonderful big sister (I'm just not sure how long the adjustment period will be).

We again are waiting to find out the sex, as life has very few "good" surprises. The wives tales and Chinese calendars have been fifty fifty. As requested from some of my friends -Here's a pic of me from last night's Reflections event (a charity/honorarium dinner hosted by my employers). I have not yet transformed into "cankle-saurus" which my husband named me last time...but I still have over 16 weeks!

Giddy Up!





On Saturday Emma had Carson's 2nd birthday party which was a cowboy and cowgirls party. Emma had received the perfect outfit from my colleague Jeanette for her first birthday - I just had to share the pic!
