Welcome!

I'm an Auntie again! It was amazing. I was in the room when he entered the world. I watched him make his way here. And his mom did AMAZING! She pushed for 41 minutes. It was definately different watching a baby born than having one. Very exciting! Welcome to the world Owen Timothy!

Getting ready

Dan's mom and cousin are on their way over right now. They will be here for about a week. Dan's cousin is a senior in highschool and is coming over for Dan to do the body work and paint his pickup. Its kind of cool because it is a truck their Grandpa got him before he died.

I've been cleaning out the spare room and also cleaning our bedroom to make room for the baby stuff that was in the spare room. So now there is a cradle and play pen in our room. I can't be nesting already!

I always get really stressed out when Dan's mom comes for a visit. She just really wears me out. I'm hoping that since Dan's sister in law is scheduled to be induced on Wed. my MIL will be spending much time over there with the new baby. Dan asked her if she wanted to stay with us or with his brother and she said us. Even though they are having a new baby. I guess at least for my SIL that is good.

Anyway, they will be here sometime tonight. I have to prepare dinner for everyone all week! AHHHH...

This could ONLY happen to me!

This morning Koleton had school. So I took him to school and then McClain, Zoey and I went to a girlfriends house to hang out for an hour until it was time to take McClain to gymnastics. When it was time to leave I put Zoey in her car seat and then flung my purse over the front seat. I shut the back door and then was going to pick McClain up to put him in his seat. As SOON as I shut the door I hear CLICK! AH SHIT! See on my car we have the buttons on the door handle that you can program with a code to unlock your car without the keys. Well, we don't know the code at all and never use it. BUT when you push the last two buttons at the same time it LOCKS the whole car. THAT is exactly what McClain did.

So, my purse, phone, keys AND Zoey are locked in the car. So I call Dan from my girlfriends phone but he didn't answer. He went to work today for a few hours but was working in Lewiston so I was hoping he could run me down his key. I didn't know if he wasn't answering because he was at work or if he just didn't recognize the number. So I called my stepdad, also known as my constant rescuer, and asked him to try to call him. Still no answer. So I call Rachaell and ask her if she can get ahold of their boss and to have Dan call me. Luckily, my stepdad was about 3 blocks from where Dan was working so he stopped by and got his keys and brought them to me.

I stayed by the car the whole time and Zoey was totally cool. She didn't freak out or anything. Thank God! I felt SOOO bad! I did call her mom to let her know what happened because I didn't want her to find out from someone else before I could explain what happened. She was cool about it. She said she would be a little upset if it were 100 degrees out but thank goodness it wasn't. IF that had been the case we would have had a broken window to replace.

So, needless to say, the car will be going to the dealership to reprogram the code AND I'm getting 2 extra keys made TODAY so I can hide one on the car somewhere and do something with the other one.

What a DAY!

Apparently I'm disabled

So yesterday Koleton and I both had the pukes. I had it worse than him. He was watching TV and a commercial came on about a motorized chair. You know the ones that old people tool around on. Koleton told me I needed one when I was sick. Jeez! Didn't think I was that bad!

Wow!

I can't beleive that I'm already 5 months along! We have our ultrasound this Friday. Gosh! I still can't believe it. Our friends are due just a couple weeks before us and had their ultrasound this last Friday. They are having a boy. They already have a little girl so that is really cool for them. We will not be finding out what we are having. I just can't help but think that I'll be a mom to 3 BOYS! YIKES!

Anyway, the baby is moving more and more. I finally look pregnant. Well, I will let you all know how it goes at the ultrasound! Hope you all have a GREAT week!

I am here

I've been absent for awhile. I've really been debating about continuing with my Blog. After talking with a close friend I have decided to go ahead with it. It is for ME, my family and my friends.

As I'm writing this I am blessed with the laughter coming from the living room. The boys are playing and are making the little girl I watch giggle. I love baby giggles. When you feel down, it is amazing how great one of those little giggles can make you feel.

Well, I knew it was too good to last. McClain is crying now. Sometimes these moments are short lived but that are wonderful while they last.

So far, this pregnancy is great. It almost makes me sad to know it is my last one. I am feeling the baby wiggle inside me and soon Dan will be able to feel the little movements too. I am finally forming a pretty little baby bump. I am mostly in maternity clothes now. Which is kind of nice because it lets everyone know of the little miracle inside me.

The baby doesn't seem to like to be jostled or squished. I had a chiropractor adjustment last week and the bean sprout went crazy moving around after I was adjusted. I am still working out but stretching is getting a little more difficult. I really can't bend over and even come close to touching my toes. It is very apparent there is a baby there now when I bend over. I still stretch the best that I can though. However, the baby seems to not like that very much. It was very wiggly last night after my workout and stretching. Its fun to feel it in there going crazy though.

I really did cherish each of my pregnancy's but this one seems a little different. I guess its because I know it will be my last. I don't want to miss a thing with this one. The boys like to give the baby kisses and say "Hi baby." It is so cute. I hope this lasts once the baby is here.
Next week we have our ultrasound and I will be 5 months along. We are thinking about taking Koleton to the ultrasound with us. But we are still deciding. It seems like the time is flying by. It almost makes me sad. Before too long we will be a family of 5.
