Quick Baby Update(more to come)

Okay, I know I have been really bad about blogging lately. I just can't get the urge to sit if front of a computer when I get home (I sit in front of one for 8 hours a day). But I am hoping to get better at it again soon!

Anyway, I had my 16 week checkup yesterday and everything still looks good. I am still losing weight, I am at about 22 lbs lost. Doctor isn't too concerned about it since my uterus size is right on track (plus I wasn't a small girl to begin with;) ). The doctor found the heart beat right away and it was nice and steady in the 150s. She just put the doppler on and there it was, nice and strong. I LOVE that sound! I do not believe in the old wives' tale about the heart rate. Braylon's was always in the 150's and we know how that turned out. We'll just have to wait and see in 4 short weeks to find out if it is a boy or girl. I am starting to get really excited about finding out! I still think it is another boy, but everyone seems to think its a girl. We'll see who's right! We took Braylon with us to the doctor this time and he did NOT like the doctor putting the doppler on mommy. He cried and whimpered the whole time. The doctor said most kids his age are like that the first time around and it will get better so not to hesitate to keep bringing him.

I will try and get some pictures up tonight on what has been going on over the last month.

Different Second Time Around

Boy is this pregnancy different than with Braylon. I have not been feeling very well these past few weeks. I do not seem to like ANY type of food. Any thought of food makes me want to throw up. Oh and don't even get me started on the smell of foods. YUCK! Even though I don't physically get sick I feel like I am about to. I can't wait for this next week and half to be over so that I "hopefully" start feeling better. With Braylon, I didn't feel like this at all. I think garlic was the only thing that made me squirm with him. But this time around it is EVERYTHING. I have already lost 15 pounds since I found out I was pregnant. I just can't get myself to eat very much at one time. Oh and the exhaustion, I am tired all the time. Chris has been so amazing. He just lets me come home from work and lay down for the rest of the night. He (or my sister) take care of making dinner and dishes. It has been wonderful.

So, hopefully some of my energy will be returning soon so that I can get some pictures uploaded on here. I am feeling so behind right now.

Happy / Sad

Today I am both Happy and Sad. I am happy for my baby sister, Rosanna, who got married yesterday to a wonderful man, Josh. They both looked amazing. I will have pictures to post soon. Congratulations to the WINKLERS!!!

I am sad because I will be going to the Rosary of a friend and classmate tonight. My heart has been aching since Thursday for the Adams Family. Jason was a wonderful man, husband, father, brother, grandson and friend. He is going to be missed so much. Please keep his friends and family in your prayers during this very difficult time.

A week in Centralia...

Braylon and I have been spending this week in Centralia helping out my little sister Rosie get ready for her wedding on Saturday. Braylon has been enjoying his time on the farm with Papa. I think he has gotten to ride the tractors everyday so far. He LOVES this. I have been enjoying lots of rest. I have been taking 2 hour naps with Braylon everyday. It has been so nice. We have been busy getting ready for the wedding too. We can't wait for Saturday. It is going to be a beautiful wedding. We have been talking with Braylon about walking down the aisle to hopefully get him to do it. We plan on practicing with him on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. We'll see if it happen or not.

I will have pictures to post from the wedding on Sunday! Lots of handsome pictures of the little man.

Where does the time go?

Hard to believe that this little guy will be TWO tomorrow. I have so much to do to get ready for this weekend. We are having a nice BBQ with our families and then Cake and Ice-Cream later on with our extended families. It is going to be a Thomas the Train theme since Braylon is obsessed with it right now. I am attempting to decor his cake myself. Hopefully it will turn out OK. I'm sure he'll like it either way. I am getting his pictures taken tomorrow morning so I will have a new post all for the little Birthday Boy!
