On Thanksgiving We ended up doing a mini photo-shoot on our own instead of hiring a professional, and I am pretty happy with the results. Thanks Tonita for taking the pictures!!!

Only 4 weeks left! It is amazing how fast time is going by. I have been feeling pretty good, but am having more contractions with this little guy than I did with Van. It is also harder than I remember to move around and get up and down. Probably because last time I was just working in an office and not chasing around a 3 year old all day! We went to Disneyland for 3 days and then came back and got a pretty nasty cold. I was coughing so much I was worried I might go into labor! LOL! Well, even after all of the walking around and the…

These pictures were taken last week when I was 31 weeks… today I am 32 weeks. I can’t believe it is getting so close.. only about a month and a half away! Last week my parents came down and helped move Van into his new big boy room and set up the baby’s room. We spent a week organizing a decorating and I feel so good knowing that the house is ready for baby’s arrival. I have been feeling mostly good, but am getting the third trimester hit of constant heartburn, exhaustion and Braxton Hicks contractions. Sitting down or taking a nap isn’t always an option with Van around, but…

26 Weeks… almost 27 weeks! I am feeling great and am so happy to be back home (although India was such a fun experience!) The baby is looking good and everything is going perfectly so far. I saw the doctor this week and found out I passed my glucose test! Whoo hoo! To celebrate, Van and I went to Krispy Kreme and ordered a dozen doughnuts 😉 The baby is about 2 lbs. right now and I can definitely feel him squirming around all day long. He loves to move right before bedtime, but isn’t keeping me up at night yet. Van is getting more and more excited about the…

Over half way done with the pregnancy… I can hardly believe it! Our little boy is growing and is already a mover and a shaker. It is is so much fun to feel him move around and especially fun now that Kenny and Van have been able to feel him. Still not 100% sure on a name for our little guy, although Van wants to name him Thomas after the train (not going to happen!) I switched insurances this week and found a new doctor. We are very excited that we get to have this little kiddo at the same hospital Van was born and are so thankful that everything…

19 weeks! We are all doing great and sometimes I even forget that I am pregnant 🙂 We should be finding out on Friday is baby #2 is a boy or a girl! I feel like this pregnancy has flown by and I can’t believe that it is already time for the big ultrasound. Nothing too big has happened in the pregnancy. A few weeks ago I thought I was having a bad round of morning sickness and laughed at the fact that it waited until my 2nd trimester. That night I discovered it wasn’t morning sickness, but either food poisoning or the flu. Yuck! The doctor wanted me to…

12 weeks! Still feeling pretty good. I can’t believe that the first trimester is almost over. It has gone by so much faster this time around! Van has been sick this week (note the red rash around his mouth), but it isn’t supposed to be contagious to anyone over 5 years old so Kenny and I are still feeling fine 🙂 In baby news… he/she is about the size of a lime and reflexes have developed. I still get a tiny bit queasy in the morning and evening, but I feel just fine once I eat. Pop Tarts are my favorite right now for settling my stomach! I also think…
