A letter to my baby girl

Sophia, my baby girl, my little lovebug, my entire world--
I love you more than words could ever describe. You have been the most amazing gift. I have enjoyed watching you grow and learn. You have taught me more in your 2 years of life than I have learned in all of mine. You are going to be an amazing big sister. I can't wait to see you teach your brother all that you have learned and show him right from wrong. Mommy and daddy are so proud of you! Do whatever it is your heart tells you ..we will support you no matter what. I love you with everything in me.
love, mommy

Tomorrow could be the big day!

So I am 40 weeks and 4 days pregnant. Baby boy is just too cozy! Tomorrow morning I go in at 8am to have a balloon induction. I'm hoping that will jump start labor so I don't have to be medically induced. I am sooo excited. Also a little nervous. I'm more nervous about Sophia..how she will react to a new baby and not having mommy's full attention 24//7..I feel like I am kind of abandoning her :( although I know I'm not. I love her more than anything in the world..I can't imagine loving another person just as much. It doesn't seem real that he will be here in just a few short days. I feel like I still have weeks to go.

I'm ready to take this on. I am excited to start a new journey as a mommy of two!
Bring it on mother nature. :)

It has been FOREVER!

I knew I would be horrible at updating this!
As of today I am 36 weeks and 3 days (holy cow!)
I have gained a total of 30 lbs so far...yikes..
the baby is head down and ready to go! he has tons of fluids in there and has a strong heartbeat (and kick!)
i am seeing the doctor every week now. i am registered at the hospital. bag is packed! baby's clothes are all washed and waiting..now it's just a waiting game!..i'm so anxious to meet him. the closer the time gets the more excited i get! i cant wait for sophia to meet her little brother!

We also picked a name! we decided to not tell anyone until he is here because discussing names with certain people has only made me want to cut all ties.
**WARNING RANT AHEAD**
I'm pretty sure this child I am carrying is MINE (and Steven's of course) so why do "people" feel the need to put in their opinion on what his name should be. You are not carrying him, nourishing him, taking care of him and you certainly will not be raising him. so please shut your mouth and go away :)

rant over. I'm just tired of people telling us the names we liked were "gay", "stupid", blah blah blah. f-off please.

anyways. our little boy is gonna be here very soon with a very awesome name that his PARENTS picked especially for him!
we love you little guy <3

It's a...

BOY!!!

Yes! We have a wee wee folks! :)

Very excited to finally get this out to the world! It was extremely hard to hold in! 

Can't wait to meet the little guy!

 

18wks 5 days!

 

I am to the point when I look down I no longer see my toes! :P 

Doctor :)

Saw my doc yesterday again! After a very long vacation with my baby girl, I got to listen to the little one's heartbeat. 144! Very good!
I also gained 3 lbs in 4 weeks! ugh! But I do have a very funny story! So I had to pee very very bad, they weighed me and I asked if I could go pee and come back and reweigh. So I go, and when I weighed in again I lost 3 lbs!!! lol!!!
I'm also measuring right on schedule! :)
We are going to be announcing what the baby is this weekend :) Stay tuned!!

I know something you dont know :P

On May 4, we cheated and went to get a 3d u/s to find out the baby's sex... =D
But we aren't telling anyone til after my doctors appointment on the 27th. until then..
here are a few pics from the U/s

baby was very squished in there so we didnt get any good pictures of his/hers face. maybe next time.

my big ol' belly
16 weeks 5 days

 Nothing new has happened really. I have been feeling some movement. Every once in a while if I'm laying down I will feel kicking. I can't wait to announce what the baby is!!!!! AAHH!!
