Who.. Who...





Yes... It is true, our family of three is expanding to a family of 4! We are all so excited. I've had to stay away from the blog so I didn't accidentaly on purpose share the big news. We wanted to wait until after our first Dr. appointment before we shared with others outside of the family.

I'll try to answer some of the questions I know you guys will want to know:

Due date is: July 27th, 2010 (horray! I'll be HUGE and sweaty!)

Boy or girl: Healthy, that's all that we ask.
(Byron says Healthy and a Boy. I'm thinking that a girl would be WAY easier because we already have the set up, but which ever is fine with me. I will love him or her either way!)

Have you been sick: YES, YES, YES, YES and YES!
Were you sick with B? No, not like this. I remember being tired with B, but not sick like I am with this one. It is for a REALLY good cause and that is what I tell myself when I feel like death has consumed my body.

I do have a really funny story about my sickness... (well, only funny in retrospect)
The other morning I went and got B out of her bed and carreid her into the living room for our morning snuggle and sippy cup of milk. (shhhh, don't tell Dad, but this is why we are normally 10 minutes late every morning!) Well, I got all seated in the rocker and then suddenly I didn't feel to good. So I tucked her in with her blanket and flicked on Nick Jr. to keep her occupied while I ran to the bathroom. Well, I didn't realize I had been in there for about 30 minutes and suddenly she appeared in my bathroom door, sippy cup in one hand and blanket in the other. She looked at me and said: "oh, Momma not feel good." After she said that I had another bout and had to up-chuck in the potty. Her next comment was" EEEEEWWWWWWWWWW Momma." She then very quickly vacated the premisis.



My next Doctor's appointment is on December 23rd, we will have our first sonogram then.

I'll be using my same Doctor in Decatur, Texas. For those of you doing the math.... it is about 95 miles from Throckmorton. Since we live out in the sticks this is one thing I'm not really looking forward to. BUT I have all the faith in the world in my Doc. Since my labor with B was EXTREAMLY short, we aren't going to take any chances with an hour and a half drive. I will have a scheduled enducement date. (Not something I would prefer,but since I almost had B at home... I'd rather not push my luck!)



Here is a picture of the baby belly at 6 weeks:


Byron says there isn't much there, but I on the other hand beg to differ. I am VERY well aware of the changes my body is making. I'm still in all my regular pants, but THANK GOODNESS for bella bands and those little button thingies that give you and extra inch! I've been told that you pop out a whole lot faster with your second one than you did with the first and boy howdy...that is VERY true!

When I do actually feel like eating, all I want is mexican food. Rice, chips, hot sauce, really anything mexican. I also am a big cereal eater again. I don't know how many boxes of total I went thru with B, but I'm pretty sure I kept Post afloat for those 9 months. This go around it is corn flakes with dab of sugar.

Looking forward to the second tri-mester, hopefully with no sickness,

Congratulations! I am only a few weeks ahead of you and can confirm the bump makes a much earlier appearance! Hope you start to feel better!

Congrats! You have one beautiful little girl, I can only imagine that you would have another just as blessed. I see that your doctor is in Decatur, will you be delivering there as well? I only ask because my mother-in-law is a labor and delivery nurse at the Decatur hospital.
