New Baby update...

Happy 4th of July!
Sorry for the delay in updates, we don't have our scanner hooked up yet so I don't have new ultrasound pics. But I do have pics of Liza and news of the new baby.

Things are going well in the Nash household. We bought a home in St. Peters MO and have gotten almost all the way settled. We still have a few house projects to go before the house is "finished", but we are working hard and getting closer every day. This new house has everything we need, 3 bedrooms and a bath upstairs for kids and a guest, and a main level master suite that is more space than we need. There is also a large basement where I will host a day care for the next couple of years. It is nice to know that I will be home with the kids.

In New baby news....Allen is going to be out numbered 3 to 1 - we are having another girl! We are so excited! It is going to be great fun to have two girls so close together. I have already gotten out Liza's 0-3 month clothes and started to put together the new nursery. We think the name Abigail Win Nash is going to stick, and she will be called Abby. Before we knew the gender of this baby, Allen came up with a tribute name for his Grandfather, Walter Ivan Netson, his initials spell WIN and that makes a nice middle name.
As for me, I am getting bigger every day and those aches and pains I so quickly forgot after Liza's birth are returning with great familiarity. I am a little slower on the get go and if I am still too long my hips forget how to work. Our new house had a bunch of Poison Ivy in the back yard and unfortunately I got a bunch of it (via the dogs) all over. So for the past 6 weeks I have been battling one itch-fest after another. My Doc and OB-GYN say it is not uncommon for PI to go on for several rounds...as soon as one round is about to clear up another is popping up. I can't seam to get a break.

Liza had her first visit to Michigan two weeks ago and we had a blast. She had just started to really walk - so when she stood ont he sand and it moved beneth her feet...she was a bit afraid of it. But after a few tries she walked all the way from the ladies beach to the big assembly beach! what a treck! It also took her some time to get used to the water. But again after a few introductions, she was ready for "Calling all beginners - Hurry Hurry Hurry". Liza and Oma had a great time playing together.

This weekend we went to the O'Fallon 4th of July parade with some friends and everyone seemed to have a great time. At the start of the parade were some emergency vehicles with sirens and horns blowing - Liza wasn't too thrilled with all the noise, but tolerated it Liza wasn't too interested in the floats but she had a great time walking around the park and watching the other children.
