I am still here

It has been a crazy and very busy past few weeks so I apologize for neglecting my blog...

I went and saw the Dr. yesterday (yes I said doctor) and I am so glad that I have only one more appointment with them and that is my Ultra Sound. This Drs. office is NOT personable at all. I was treated like just another number and I had to sit in the waiting room for 45 minutes just to be called back to "the room" where I continued to sit for another 15 - 20 minutes waiting for the nurse practitioner....... Needless to say I was more than upset.
I did however find out that all of my blood work came back good and my red blood cell count was good and there was no sign of being anemic which is great considering I have been anemic for 15 years. I also found out that I lost 2 pounds??? Which I dont understand because I thought I ate just a ton over Christmas.

We have our ultra sound on Jan 12 and will be finding out the sex so I am excited.... I am wanting to start a poll right now because it is funny to hear everyones opinions..........

Midwife appointment last night

So last night was another appointment with the midwife. First, I have to say that I love my midwife dearly. She gets my humor, her and Christa make such an awesome team, she is so stinking cool and down to earth and she is so knowledgeable and such a great listener. I am so excited to have her.

So last evening we heard only one heartbeat and it was a good strong heartbeat. My blood pressure was normal (and has been for awhile now) I am measuring at 22 weeks and I have only gained 2 pounds in the last 5 weeks. Sugar level was good and so was everything else.. The baby even kicked Wendy when she went to measure me so that was cute. Speaking of kicking this little bean has been moving around so much it is crazy. When I lay down to go to sleep it seems to move the most so maybe we will have another very active "night owl" baby on our hands......

I did want to show what a difference a couple months can make:

ok this was me at 9 1/2 weeks. I just looked like one fat girl....

And this is me at 20 weeks.... Thank God for a Gazelle so I can get in shape for this pregnancy.

A few pic of family

Riley took this picture and I love it.

This is one Kennedy took and you should have seen her with a camera.
I think I know what may be her hobby.

This girl means the world to me, we have been having so much fun
together lately.. LOVE YOU KDY

One I did myself, Kdy says this is her favorite pic so I had to post it for her.

Both of these 2 are getting so big, it is so hard to grasp that too.

We were suppose to do BIG eyes together but she didnt think it was cool.

Half way there

I am 20 weeks today which means I am half way there. Time is really flying by too so I am excited about that. I know it has been so long since you all have heard from me but really life has been pretty busy and crazy here so I haven't thought about posting. I am sorry but now that I have energy i would rather clean and do other things instead of sitting and typing on my computer. Please don't take offense.................... So I thought I would share a pic of the belly:



We will be having our Dr. appointment soon which means we will be doing an ultra sound. We are only interested in finding out how many we are having not the sex..... This will be the first time we will be surprised so this all will be different.

sorry

I am sorry for neglecting my blog right now. All is well with the baby and I. I just keep having dreams I am having twins...... It has been a pretty emotional week and I really am at a loss for words right now. Me talking about this baby really is the last thing I want to do right now. Hopefully I will have some good stuff to post next week

Sad day

This morning I woke up and checked my email like I normally do. Today it was taking a lot longer though cuz we were having some problems........ So when I finally was able to check it, I received some of the worst news.... A friend of mine back home was heading home with her two children after being at her moms that day and as she was driving she was hit by a drunk driver. Her and her two children (ages 11 months and 3) were killed.. I really don't even know what to think right now to be honest with you. I have sat in complete shock almost the whole day. I have also prayed for this family and for her husband but I am just still in such shock and disbelief. I mean Mandy was an beautiful mom and wife that loved God with all her heart and her family was just such an awesome family that loved each other so much. I don't understand why she is gone of all people... My heart goes out to Josh and his family and also her family, they were such a tight knit family and i just still can not believe it happened to her. There is a story of them on the news so if you want to watch it you can click here...

I really don't know what else to say I am such at a loss for words. Please keep this family in your prayers.
