This summer has seriously just flown by! We have been so stinkin busy! I have started working more, and I feel like Kasey has, too! If that's even possible! He works during the day and I've been working 3 or 4 nights a week, so we miss seeing each other a few days a week. It's nice to have Sundays off and enjoy the day together as a family.
We found out we're having another baby due Feb 6, 2015! Although, I think he will be here sooner! It's a BOY and we are thrilled!!!!!!! This pregnancy has been different than when I was pregnant with Emma, so I was thinking it was a boy. I've been SUPER sick. It has been a hard few months chasing Emma and trying to survive. I swear some days I thought I might die. I was exhausted, and nauseous, and hot. Not the best combo. But I survived, and I just started feeling better last week! (Hence why I am blogging, and catching up on deep cleaning/organizing my house.)
We went to Lake Powell for a few days in June with my family! It was great to be together, and have the little cousins playing together! Life is so good!!!
We headed to Utah for the 4th of July! We love seeing Kasey's family! They do a huge BBQ every year and everyone swims, eats, and just enjoys time together! It's like Christmas in July! So perfect! We love the 4th of July tradition!
Crystal got married the following week in Colorado! It was seriously such a beautifully, perfect day! I am just thrilled for Crystal and Tito, and all the adventures ahead of them!
Kasey has been busy working on building me a desk for my new office at home. He's so handy, I love it! I am planning on working from home more, and need a lot of space! He comes home from work and plays with Emma and does bath time, then once she goes to bed he heads to the shop to work on different projects! Love this man of mine!!!
Life is so good, and we are so happy!
Lately I have been feeling overwhelmed with joy. Like, to the point of tears. (Thanks, hormones.) My heart is just so full. I love being a mom, and I love being married to Kasey. I love this life we have created together--it has been such a fun journey, and I am so looking forward to our future! We are excited to welcome a baby boy into our family, and watch Emma be a big sister! She is seriously hilarious.
She is a talking machine. What 19-month old says things like pterodactyl and guacamole? She hears something once and remembers it! She understands things and can distinguish opposites. She amazes me!! This week we've heard a lot of: GO BRONCOS, surgery, yeeee-haw, lasso, I love you's, etc. I could go on forever! I love being this little girl's mom! She loves to read and explore and learn. She keeps me on my toes, and I am so grateful for her sharp little mind! She's healthy and strong. We are so blessed to be her parents! She has us laughing daily. She has a fun sense of humor and is so outgoing. She loves everyone and everything. She says hi and waves to the unfriendliest looking people, and makes them smile! I love her sweet and innocent heart. I am learning a lot from her! She also loves accessories like belts, necklaces, and shoes. She's currently obsessed with motorcycles, airplanes, trains, hot wheels, and boats. She is perfect.
How far along? 18 weeks
Total weight gain/loss? 3 pounds gained. I've been SO sick.
Maternity clothes? Yes. Mainly because they're just so comfy! I can still wear my normal clothes, too.
Stretch marks? No new ones.
Sleep? Like a freakin baby. I'm exhausted every night. I'm starting to put a pillow under my belly though. We're getting to that point where it's going to get uncomfortable!
Best moment this week? Emma kissing my stomach and saying, "Hi Baby!" I also love feeling him wiggle around! It's like he's saying "Hi, Mom! I'm still here!" :)
Miss Anything? Sushi.Movement? Yes! Food cravings? Sushi. Steak. Cotton Candy. Anything making you queasy or sick? Different things on different days. I've been super sensitive this pregnancy.Have you started to show yet? Oh yes! This little guy popped out early! And is sitting low!
Gender? Boy!Labor Signs? No! Hopefully not for a loooooong time!Belly Button in or out? InWedding rings on or off? OnHappy or Moody most of the time? Happy most of the time. I usually cry for no reason, then I'm fine. (How is that different from when I'm not pregnant, Caitlin??)Looking forward to? My next appointment and hearing his heartbeat! We have an ultrasound in 3 weeks! I can't wait to see our little fella!
