thanksgiving & a family pic

so we finally had a chance to have my mom snap a few photos of us as a family..only took 7 months..my goodness! it was spur of the moment after eating a huge thanksgiving meal..but we just ran outside and took a few really quick.










Also, here is a pic of the boys at our thanksgiving..Jeremiah had a great time eating the food and teething on a turkey leg ( the original teether toy i call it lol) and Zechariah, our picky little guy who i swearnever eats had 2 olives..and orobably only because i put them on his fingers and he thought that was fun :) I enjoyed being on bedrest, which meant i didnt have to cook or clean!! haha..but my dr. said i could start doing a little more out of bed now, like eating at the table and moving around the house a little bit to sit up ect. so i got to enjoy the turkey and everything else with the family at the table and not feel guilty about it! woohoo. And Devin did a really good job making the pie..yummy! Im thankful for sooo many things this year!!





P.S.
Just as i was about to finish thispost..Jeremiah projectile vomited all over the living room floor :( maybe too much thanksgiving food?! poor guy..and poor dad..who witnessed his first baby throwing up incident and has to clean it up :( lol!

2 boys in a tub

so excited now that the boys can take baths together thanks to jeremiah's bath seat!! Zechariah loves playing with little brother and helping wash him..so sweet! and jeremiah just loves anything that invloves his big brother..plus baths get done so much quicker...a plus for everyone! J looks a little confused as to why his crazy mom would be taking pictures during a time like this..ecspecially since i took about 30 pics during one bath time! Can't wait until next year when we have rub a dub dub 3 babies in a tub ;)

pregnancy pic!

So on our way to my doctor's appointment last week, Devin reminded me that we dont have any pictures of me pregnant with Abigial yet, so since i was finally dressed up in something other than sweatpants ( i mean, bedrest isnt really any fun in jeans, hehe) we snapped a quick pic of me and my little darling :) not sure if its because im having a girl, or because ive lost alot of weight since my last baby, but i definetly feel "small" for 20+ weeks..but this week ive starting showing more and am excited :) and she is kicking like crazy this week!!

new pics

Here are a few new pictures i snapped in between all the craziness these days :( Praying Zechariah is feeling better soon (going on 3 weeks of feeling yucky) and that Jeremiah's episodes of aspiration/reflux pain go away soon too!
We have an Appt. at Doernbecher's next week, so im excited to get all this stuff with Jeremiah figured out once and for all! Hopefully :)



Love how these boys love each other hehe :)



Jeremiah LOVES the banana brush..my new favorite item to buy for baby showers!




Devin and I went on a date night for my friend Lindsay's 25th Birthday! it was so much fun and i cant even remember the last time we went to dinner and a movie. We saw the movie courageous. and it was sooo good! then for a late dinner at Turtles..and we had great company..thanks to Hoshi, Lindsay, Traci and Frank :)

introducing Jeremiah James

Our little boy Jeremiah James Donahue was born the night before my birthday April 14th. 11lbs. 2 ounces and 22 inches long! We were all surprised how big this little bundle turned out to be! (especially my doctor!) She said she had never delivered a baby over 10 lbs. before and was still in shock that they miscalculated the baby's weights by so much. I will attempt to post a birth story some time soon. here are some pics of our beautiful little miracle!

we are still alive ;)

don't worry everyone, we are still alive, and doing great! i know i haven't made a new post in about 6 months, but.....Were back! ta da! Here a few pics to get me started

a few random pics..and an update

So..i am officially 40 weeks and 1 day pregnant..and im starting to feel like this mystery baby is never going to come out, haha! The doctor was wanting to induce me this weekend due to my high blood pressure and that they think the baby is big, but my bp went significantly down last week and so they are going to let me wait a little longer to see if little Jeremiah/Athalia will come on its own...so Ive got 4 or 5 more days and im really hoping that i will just go into labor..the sooner the better, lol!

I have been so bad about updating the blog and taking pictures lately, mostly due to the fact that my 1 year old now screams and throws tantrums whenever i even sit in the computer chair..and by the time he goes to sleep im ready for bed too :) But i have a few random photos to share...and then hopefully the next post will be announcing the arrival of the newest Donahue boy or girl!!!


Zechariah's new shades that his auntie bone bought him :)

Christmas pictures..only a month late, lol!

I can't believe it's already 2011! where does the time go?? Well, i meant to post these pictures right after the holidays, but with being pregnant and chasing after the little guy i lost track of time, lol! here are some random pics from Christmas morning and when we went to my parents house in Corvallis later that day :)
Enjoy!
