Update

A little over 6 weeks until Alexis is due. =D How crazy is that?! I've got to get motivated to clean and finish getting the place ready for her! We got Brandon's baby swing out a few days ago. He was so cute! He got excited and went and grabbed his elmo to put in the swing and then he sat there swinging him for a good 10 minutes or so! I can't wait to see what a good big brother he's going to be. We went to target after his therapy Wednesday and he managed to hurt himself twice. Once he walked right into a metal pole. The 2nd time I guess he still had therapy on the brain. He was working on walking on different textures and climbing and stuff like that...with mats under him to catch him if he fell. So, He climbed on a very low, empty shelf. I thought he was going to sit down because I do that sometimes when I'm with other people and Lexi's giving me a hard time. But, nope. My lovely son decided to dive off the shelf head 1st. Thankfully, all it left was a bruise! He was not very happy when he found out target's floors weren't padded like Mr. Jim's are. >.< Crazy kid.

I found out about a huge baby and me consignment sale going on tomorrow at my local fairgrounds I'm going to go check out. I'm super excited! My mom and sister in law are going with me. I'm going to try out my kids' double stroller since my niece is going, too. =D It should be a fun day!

So...that's a very basic update on everything and everyone! =)

Introducing Motherhood and Beyond!

My name is Krystal Ingalls. I am happily married to my best friend and partner in crime (Kidding!) R. Alan Ingalls. We have a wonderful 2 year old son named Brandon. He is definitely a unique, fun loving little boy. He has PDD-NOS...which is on the autism spectrum. It makes his life a little more challenging than most, but luckily for him, he was born into a family who is ready and willing to help him succeed in anything he wishes to do. His life is full of people who love him and want him to succeed. His family goes beyond the typical extended family. He also has his team of therapists and teachers that we pretty much consider family as well. I'm so glad we got lucky enough to get a great team together to help him along the way! He has come a long way since he started seeing his therapists and I couldn't be prouder.

Brandon is going to be a big brother in about 8 weeks! Little Alexis Ann is due on April 1st. He loves being mommy's little helper, so I don't think he is going to get too jealous of her as long as we keep him involved.

I am hoping that by making this blog I will be able to update family and friends about things that are happening in my life. Please check back often to see the latest on the Ingalls Family! =) Have a great day!
