Well we have eleven days left until my due date for baby #2. There have been some crazy things going on this week with me so my doctor was considering inducing me on Tuesday. Luckily for me that ended up not happening, we weren't ready for the baby to come on Tuesday. So after that little scare or shocker we have been buckling down and getting more of his stuff prepared.
As of know I think we are going to stick with the name Mason but it kind of looks like his middle name might change. So we are thinking of Mason Gage Nelson. We just couldn't settle between the two and or give one of them up so he gets both Mason and Gage. But we could change our minds still when he arrives. So lets we are hoping he arrives in a timely manner and not 10 days late like his sister. Just a quick little post for you all.

She is trying
Sydney is trying to walk so a friend gave us a toy to borrow since their next kid is only three months they don't need it for a while. Sydney will hold on and go walking around, she is such a ham and so fun to watch hope you enjoy.

Our Beaver
So as I was mentioning to my mom a few nights ago, we have a little wood eating beaver on our hands. For like three nights in a row Sydney would not go to sleep and would just scream from her crib and when we would go into her room we would find her standing up with her mouth on the crib. These are the results. 
Just a few random pics of Sydney, she is quit the character.

Well folks this is what the house in Washington looks like, if any of you have seen base housing in Lemoore, CA it is very similar. Sorry this pictures are so bland, there isn't much you can do with military housing but as promised here are the pictures minus some rooms. We upgraded from a two bedroom one bath; to three bedrooms and 2 1/2 bath (thanks to baby Mason or Gage).
The new car from a bad angle in our tiny garage.
The Kids bathroom.
Sydney's room; I still need to find dots for her walls again.
The baby's room, not much in it yet. We have 5 1/2 more weeks about till my due date.
The Living room and entry hallway

New, New and New
So in a weeks time period we have managed to moved from Central California to an hour from Seattle, WA. We made the journey in two days with the help of my brothers driving and that is when the adventure began. So as if a 15 hour jounery isn't enough, while driving down steep mountain hills Paul's beloved Taruas decided to try and brake down. By that I mean its engine cut out on us and we had no power, luckily there was no cars or trucks around and an exit nearby. We pulled off and let the car rest for a while, we were just hoping that we could make it to Oregon for the night before any big decisions were made. Fortunately we made it all the way to Washington without any more problems.
So Thursday we checked in and got our new house and Friday all of our furniture was delivered and the unpacking began. But back to Taruas, we dropped her off at the mechanics to see if it was an easy fix or not. Well it turns out the fuel pump was on its last leg and would cost at least $800. So then we found out more was wrong with the car and we decided it wouldn't be worth trying to fix, so on top of unpacking we had to look for a new car. We ended up purchasing a new 2009 Dodge Journey. We got a sweet deal and love the vechicle. Tuesday we spent the day getting the run around at the hospital and apparently being seven months pregnant gets you better service than what you would regularly get but it is still crazy all you have to do, and Wednesday we flew out to Utah for vacation. Needless to say the house is about 80% put together and I can walk in the front door and feel somewhat home because the family room and kitchen are the most put together.
It has been a crazy week and so much more has happened but I won't bore you all, I will post pics of the new house and car when I find the camera. I put it somewhere and I don't know where it went, things got moved back and forth between cars too much. But all in all Washington is great so far, we love the trees, the green, and supposed rain (I am still waiting for it.) So pictures to come.
Oh and congrats to all of our friends who have recently had their babies. There were way too many of you to keep up with. We love you all.

Countdown begins
Well for all those who don't know what is going on around are neck of the woods lately. Here is and update, I guess it was inspired by our good friend Jason who is over in Afghanistan currently. So I should be better at updating thing.
We just got back from a surprise visit to Utah it was great. We drove through the night on arrived early Friday morning leaving my dad with quit the shock, he probably thought someone was breaking into the house. We had a wonderful weekend celebrating Mother's day and some birthday's. It was also fun to see Sydney interact with Grandparents, cousins, Aunts and Uncles. We arrived back in good ole Lemoore Monday night. Needless to say we are now going to fly to Utah when we go back during transfer. I don't know who the drive was more brutal on Sydney or Me.
Now that we are back in Lemoore the fun begins, we move in two weeks. I can't believe it!! Between doctors appointment for me and Sydney it feels like we are at the hospital almost every other day I swear, even though we aren't. And days we don't have doctors appointments its the movers inspecting the household good, or calling housing to make sure we have a house in WA, then there is figuring out travel arrangements, and the list goes on. I never knew moving was so much work. But with all the work, we are excited to move to WA. We will miss everyone here in Lemoore but are definitely looking forward to new adventures as if having a second child isn't enough!! haha So if you don't see us we aren't ignoring you, we are just busy. Love ya all!

Finally Mom
Well in the midst of Sydney crawling a few paces and getting her third tooth, I finally figured out how to get her hair in a ponytail. She has these long little blonde hairs and in the wind you can just see them flowing. I have been trying and trying like crazy over the past few weeks to get it in a ponytail. My cousin finally gave me some tips that really helped, thanks Lisa!!
