Amy's 3rd Birthday!

Our sweet niece Amy turned 3 and Valerie had a super cute party!  Ella and Jack both had the flu so they stayed home with Grandma while Guy and I stopped by to celebrate.  We love you Amy!

Pregnancy Update - 25 weeks

how far along: 25 weeks

sleeping: Overall, I am still sleeping pretty good! 

movement: This baby moves constantly, much more than I remember the first two moving. 

food craving: I'm out of town training for work this week, and tacos are no where to be found.  But salad has been my food of choice for lunch and dinner!  YUM! 

what I miss:  Right now, nothing.  I am feeling good and don't have many complaints.  If you had asked me a few months ago I would have said a day with out a headache, not feeling tired, and I could do with out the nausea; fortunately these have passed for now.

what I look forward too: Maternity pictures.  Knowing this will probably be our last baby I am looking forward to taking some pictures of this baby belly. 

milestones: Guy finally felt the baby move for the first time! 

how am I feeling:  Having a little back pain this week; similar to my last pregnancy.  Fortunately the chiropractor was able to get me in before I left for this trip and I am feeling a lot better.  

Aunt Anise

My Great Aunt Anise came to visit all the way from Washington. It is always so nice to see her, and great to hear her stories. We were able to get together twice while she was here and got everyone together for a picture. I hope it's not too long before we see her again!

Pregnancy Update - 23 weeks

Ya, I know.  I am really slacking this pregnancy with the pictures and documenting everything that comes along with being pregnant.  But I am determined to make it up form this point forward.  So here we go...

how far along: 23 weeks

sleeping: I am waking up a few times a night, at least once to go to the bathroom, but I am able to fall back to sleep easily. 

movement: It took what felt like forever to start feeling this baby move, but I am finally feeling movement on a regular basis.

food craving: tacos and chocolate chip shakes...YUM!

what I miss:  Right now, nothing.  I am feeling good and don't have many complaints.  If you had asked me a few months ago I would have said a day with out a headache, not feeling tired, and I could do with out the nausea; fortunately these have passed for now.

what I look forward too: Guy and the kids being able to feel the baby move.

milestones: making it into the second trimester. YA!  Just had the second trimester ultrasound and everything looked good. 

how am I feeling: excited!  Not knowing the sex of the baby adds a new level of excitement to this pregnancy.  Now if only we could come up with some names!
