Halfway to seeing a Rainbow

20 weeks with you Sweet Pea, and you are getting more active by the day. Your kicks are getting stronger and stronger. I still don't feel you all the time. This is the exact time that I felt your big brother move for the first time. I remember the day like it was yesterday. I love to feel you move inside of me, it makes me feel so close to you. I went to a baby shower for my good friend Sommer, she is having a little girl in about a month. It made me SO SO excited to have a baby shower and can't wait until I hit that milestone. We have 2 weeks and 4 days until the BIG milestone. I worry everyday, that this pain or that pain is the start of something bad. I can't help but feel that way. I TRY AND TRY to stay so positive for you and your daddy, BUT sometimes its so so HARD. I am nervous, who wouldn't be if they had the same thing happen to them. I just hope I can go through these next two weeks without freaking myself out and having to going to the Dr before my next appointment. I have recently started to crave sugar. I normally don't eat it. Sugar free is what is in our house. Saturday was the day that I started to want A LOT of it. CANDY CANDY CANDY. Yummy, YUMMY Yum!!! I am just so happy you are going to be here soon. 5 months seems so far away, BUT yet it seems so close. We just want you safe and sound in our arms.

Love you so much
Mommy and Daddy

Just for Kicks

I have been feeling movement from our Sweet Pea all week. More and more everyday. Late last night OR very Early this morning. However you want to look at it. Shortly after midnight, she was just a kicking away. Strong kicks, the strongest yet. I SWEAR I felt her move from the outside. I wanted to wake Kyle up BUT  when I got to bed she stopped kicking me. I hope he can feel her soon. We never got to that point with Kenner. I felt him for 2 and a half short weeks and then he was in my arms. SO another milestone to meet will be feeling movement from the outside. I am just so happy. I love movement its the best. It makes everything that I have been going through real. AND worth is WAY more. SUCH a rewarding thing movement is. I have decided to share her name with you guys.......Drum roll please..........

147 days

19 weeks with our sweet little girl! I have had a cold this past week. Its SO not fun being sick and pregnant. You can't take anything good to help with anything. You are pretty much miserable the whole time. I am the worst sick person ever. All I do is complain and need  24 hour care. I have not had that 24 hour care, whats up with that?? I am still not working, so I am pretty much just at home relaxing. Which by the way is boring. Good thing I am not on bed rest! So cousin Carrie has been painting one of our rooms this week. Trying to get ready for the baby. She is too excited to wait and paint. Which is fine, I don't have to do it. Kyle SO thinks he sucks at it. BEST PART about this post is this last week I have felt movement. Not a lot by any means. Yesterday was the most active day for our little sweet pea. She was just a moving. I am sure hoping I get more and more movement this week. Kenner started Kicking at 20 weeks. Well that is when I started to feel him move. I remember that day like it was yesterday. I miss that the most. I didn't get enough of it. I want that again. I hope it starts soon. Very soon. I know it will I just need to be patient, which I am not :)
We have picked a name for our little sweet pea, but we are not ready to share it just yet. 3 weeks away from my first milestone of 22 weeks 1 day. I started to spot that day, and then contractions on 22 weeks 2 and 3 days. Then him being born on 22 weeks 4 days. I can't wait until I pass that, I probably will rest a bit easier. That means I am 3 weeks away from my next appointment, Which I can't WAIT for.  I just love seeing her on that screen. Anyways, Hope you all have an amazing week and I sure will too

Baby of mine

18 weeks with you Sweet Pea. I can't even put into word how excited I am that SHE is coming. We have bought a few things for her and I am not going to lie, its kind of scary to be doing that. Starting to prepare for her arrival is scary for me. I keep thinking what if something happens. What if we don't get to bring her home. I will be stuck with this stuff that I can't get rid of because it was hers. I am so in love right now. I love to just Keep some pink things out, they make me happy and make me think about when she will be wearing it. It helps me to be positive. Pink makes me VERY happy. Every time I see it I just smile SO big. I am SO excited that we have this amazing opportunity to be her parents. She is so loved by both of us already. We can't wait until November when we get to meet her. Not too much has happened this week. I am growing and have a bunch of growing pains. Other then that nothing new to report. Oh and I am not sure I mentioned that When I went to the dr. I had  lost a pound in the last 4 weeks. Ok nothing new to report now :)

Everything is going GREAT!! I had my cervix measured and it is longer then when it was Measured at 5 weeks. That puts me at some sort of ease for a while. Sweet pea's heartbeat was 146bpm and she was pretty much folded in half. Her feet were above her head. She is measuring with the due date November 13th!!! I didn't want to hear that date, I was worried that it would happen. I know that does not mean she will come that day. We just couldn't be more happy having a girl. We are SO SO very excited about her. We do not have a name picked out. If she was a he, he would have the name Wesley. BUT since he is not a he and she is a she :p we don't have a name.

My next appointment is in 5 weeks. That is for the BIG ultrasound. I never made it to the big Ultrasound last time. That is when I had Kenner. 5 weeks will have me at 22 weeks and 2 days. Scary Scary time. BUT I did make my next appointment also. for 9 Weeks away. On my birthday, for the Glucose test. That puts me at about 26 weeks. I think 25 weeks and 2 days. I think it is really 8 weeks away. ANYWHO.

Sweet Pea has a big thigh bone and that is all that matters :)

imagine

I can't help but think how life would be with a 2 and a half year old.

I miss him

23 more weeks

17 weeks with you Sweet Pea. THE MOST EXCITING THING.....we get to find out if you are a boy or girl this week :) SO SO excited to find out. Nothing Major happened this last week. I have been super lazy. Although my house is not a disaster, I should clean it. You know being home all day and doing nothing gets boring. I sometime think I look pregnant and then sometimes I think I just look fat. Maybe I am still in that stage....you know people are not quite sure if you are pregnant or not. I could show you baby belly but I have not really taken any pictures of that. Which is something I regretted with Kenner, SO I should get on the ball. I sure hope that sweet pea corporates and we get to see what the gender is :) eeeekkk

4 Months

16 weeks with you Sweet Pea!!! Well I think its official. Morning sickness is even less then before!!! YEAH I love that I am feeling good. I still have bouts of nausea but its not as bad as it has been. AND that is GREAT. I still have not felt movement. Which worries me, I just want movement so I can worry less. The 9th  is coming up so soon! I am getting VERY excited to find out what the gender will be.  I know this is not much of an update. BUT nothing has really changed since last week. I can't wait until November!!!
