Its a ...........

I just realized that I have yet to blog about the sex of #6!!

Can you read what it says in the upper left corner??
Or how about this, do you see whats missing?? HA HA HA

Its a GIRL!!
We have another Princess coming into our lives!!

Here she is!! Isn't she gorgeous!!
"Lauren Ansley Dillard"
I can not wait to meet her!!
I think she is going to look just like Paityn and Abbi but maybe with brown hair like Katrina!!
All I can tell you is January 31st can not come soon enough! Although this pregnancy seems to be going by the QUICKEST and definitely with the LEAST amount of sickness of ALL the pregnancies!! I wouldnt know I was pregnant most day except for this protruding belly that just keeps getting bigger (at least from my angle of looking). All my girlfriends say I need to walk sideways so you can tell I am pregnant. HA HA

 I would have never guessed the Lord would bless us with another girl. I was so sure it was another boy cause of my lack of sickness. We took Jacob with us to the ultrasound to find out sex. We were going to video his response to finding it out it was a boy. She said no video but was willing to let Jacob read us the results. When that lady started writing GI Jacob threw his hands on his head, his head went back and he yelled "NOOOOOOOO!" then without skipping a beat he said "Guess we will have to have another."
What is wrong with the men in my life????? I looked at Clay and said "NO WAY!!"

Here are her little feet to end this blog

To move or not to move............

I know we out grew this house 3 babies ago BUT
I love this house!
I love all the memories we have made here.
I love looking out front and seeing my trees from my wedding. I can picture Jacobs first steps on our front lawn with Grandma Christine on the front porch cheering him on!
I know we have out grown this house big time!!
Every time I start to put my "wishlist" together for a new house I just get super depressed and end up in tears and short of breath! 
Some of my neighbors have become like family. Like Cindy for instance. I know she is in heaven now but I still look at her house every day and think of all the good times I spent over there with her.
Shoot we had our wedding party with all our friends in our back yard cause friends were not invited to the wedding only immediate family.

My wish is to add on to the back of the house and add another bedroom or 2 or 1 bedroom and an office for Clay and most definitely a BIGGER kitchen and open floor plan change to the first floor. I'm talking like we just won the lottery or some such!!

Jethro (aka #6)

Jethro I am going to get you back big time once you arrive!!!
Who makes their momma eat tacos for breakfast?!?!?!
This morning it is actually cold taco casserole from last night but you are so happy!!
Look I will make a deal with you if you continue to do whatever you are doing so I dont have morning sickness I promise to keep feeding you tacos when ever and how ever you want! Deal??
BUT can we please talk about all the pimples you are giving me?
I have never had this many pimples EVER!!
Not even as a teenager going through puberty!!
What up dude??
Don't you want a pretty mommy??
None of the other kids did this too me BUT with that said they all had me puking all the time. So I guess I can deal with the pimples for a few more months ;)

"Mommy Princess"

I am not sure exactly how this got started 

and in all honesty I couldn't care less ;) 

the only thing one needs to know 

is that Katrina calls Princess Belle from Beauty and the Beast 

"Mommy Princess"

I just put the movie on

as soon as Belle showed up on the screen Katrina screamed & pointed

"Its you mommy!! Its you!!"  

I feel like a million bucks right now!!

My Guardian

Yesterday I read a blog titled "21 things your burglar wont tell you".
Seemed like a good read at the time.
I mean dont you want to know?
BUT Not such a great idea when your husband left that morning for the mountains for 3 days!!
Daaaaa Merideth!!
Last night before I even took the kids up for bath the blog tips started coming to mind and I found myself turning on porch lights and closing blinds so no burglar driving by would see our flat screen tv, computers or gaming systems! Then as soon as I had them all tucked in snug in their beds I set the CPI alarm and found my van keys to put by my pillow.
(These are all tips the blog mentioned)
But I must admit nothing made me feel safer than having Princess Coco Rosebud Dillard sleeping beside me!!
One of the comments at the end of the blog was exactly that. Nothing works better at deterring a burglar then a BIG DOG!!
So since I have 2 big dogs I left one out back as a warning system and one inside right next to me as my GUARDIAN!! She is such a good girl. When I got up in the middle of the night to go potty she walked me to the potty. It was just like having Angel back. When Angel was around and I was pregnant she was by my side constantly while I was home.
There is no stronger love than that of your 4 legged child!! I know she would have given her life for me and my kids if a burglar had tried to get in! I have seen how mad she gets at Frisco and just pictured her attacking a burglar just like that! HA HA
Love you Coco & Frisco!!
MISS YOU ANGEL RIP!!

Big News

"Run RUN!!
Mom is expecting another!!" 

 

When we found out we were expecting I tried to think of the funnest way to share with everyone.
This is what I came up with!!
Whatcha think?

God has truly blessed us!
I thought we were done. WE thought we were done!
I tell ya, we make all these plans and God sits up there on his thrown with a bowl of popcorn slapping his knee maybe even shedding a tear or two laughing hysterically.
"Those Dillard's think they have it all figured out!!!"

We thought we would refinance the house to help save some money so we could build Jacob a room. Then in order to pass the refinance we had to get our Master shower fixed. Bonus!!
Then we pass our appraisal and we start to see some of the $$
and
KAPLUUUEEEEEE
our downstairs toilet erupted!
Plumber comes out BAM $70, Plumber has to put camera down pipe to see what problem is BAM $250, Plumber finds a cracked and shifted pipe! BAM more $$$
BUT on a positive note we are getting all new floors on the first floor!!
The problem outside is now fixed and should not be a problem again!!

Now to try and save $$ and build Jacob his own room!
He sure is gonna need it if its a girl!!
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
Carly keeps telling us its twins!!
God is funny but lets hope he is not THAT funny!!

Psalm 127:3 Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him.

Thank you father for our rewards!!
We will raise them to LOVE you, Honor you and Share your word!!

Secrets

Ever had a secret you wanted to SCREAM from every roof top you could possibly get on???

I DO!!!!

Its killing me to keep it secret.
I made the stupid mistake of telling someone close. And got ripped a totally new butt-hole!!
Now I am scared to share with anyone else.

With each passing day the fact that I feel I cant tell anyone else because of this one negative person is making me resent this person more and more.
I keep asking myself
WHAT DO I DO??
