17 weeks

I'm now 17 weeks along and feeling really good. Besides a few headaches that are in my neck area I've been doing good. My husband tells me I have a nose of a dog because I can smell anything and most things stink to me. I'm getting excited as time goes by. Before we know it James and I will be parents. yeah I've been down this road before but he never has. It's going to be neat seeing him with the baby. He's great with Austin but I've never seen him with a baby...it should be interesting. I know he's going to be a great dad that already says our kid is going to eat every vegetable around..(I don't really like veggies). We plan on moving from this little duplex before the baby is born but we may have to wait til after...we have to save up some money first.

We already started our Christmas shopping. I'd rather get it done early so it's out of the way. We have just a few people left and of course Austin. I'm hoping to have it all done by Nov. We will see.

Austin is doing great in school so far. He took his school pics and I think it's the best pic he has ever taken. He doesn't have that fake smile like he always dose.

Just a little update....

I thought I would update everyone on what's going on around here. We have been busy these days. Austin started back to school in the middle of Aug. He's now in the 7th grade and really like all his classes. He's taking a leadership class this year which I think he'll do great in. He's also taking Algebra which he kinda likes but he scored so high on his test that he should be in that class. We think he's worried about not getting a A in the class. So far he's doing great in the class. James and I have been busy with work and enjoying our weekends together. We seem to always have something going on each weekend. I love the weekends when we just stay home and do nothing. We are also getting things ready little by little for the baby. I've been feeling great other then having some headaches and some tension in my neck which gives me the worse headache ever. I'm working on trying not to let that happen. I've been feeling great and the baby is grown well. We are hoping to find out the sex at the end of Oct. I'm 15 weeks along. And I have many more to go. James turns 30 tomorrow..I'm not to sure he's happy about that..lol. But then again we all get old sometime in life. Well that about it...I guess I should have said a long upate instead of a little.

The many faces of our 4 legged kids

We have 2 dogs which we love like crazy. They sometimes don't listen and sometimes get in everything but we still love them. Here are some pics of them. The smaller thinner one is Roxy she's our female and she 2 yrs old. The bigger and thicker one it Titan he's our male. He will be 1 this month...yeah he's way bigger then Roxy. Titan is our bad child..lol. He gets into everything and enjoys ever min of it. Roxy is our angel..she never gets into anything..it's funny how they are just like real kids.

186 days to go

I'm now 13 and half weeks. Wow I have a lone time to go. But to be honest time has been flying way for me. I had another OB appoint today and everything is going good. We got to hear a strong,healthy heartbeat. I've been having really bad headaches which would be cause from my Dr. taking me off one of my B/P pills. So he now wants me to take the one I'm taking now 3 times instead of 2 times a day. I sure hope it works because they headaches suck. We are hoping to find out the sex of the baby at the end of Oct. We can't wait. I know that March is a long time away but it will be here before we know it.

Hoping to feel better soon

On Sat. evening I started feeling a little under the weather. I knew it wasn't a cold but it had to be allergies. Well being pregnant you really can't take many meds. So I've had to suffer for the past few days. I missed work on Monday but went on Tues which was a mistake because I was like a zombie. I also missed work Wed just so I could get better by resting. I still have a bit of the allergies but I feel way better. Austin is also dealing with the same thing. I can't wait to feel 100% better.

Oh what a day

So yesterday when I got home from work our AC went out. Talk about wanting to go crazy. Our landlord came over right away. He worked on it for a few hours and thought he had fixed it...but we were wrong. It was 87 degrees all night in the house. We had to sleep with all the windows open something we don't do often. It was not a good night for any of us. I could sleep and my stomach was hurting all night. We called him this morning and told him that he had to be fixed today that we didn't want another sleepless hot night. Well let's just say it works great now. I guess he had to call a AC guy to come and fixed it. We didn't stick around to deal with the heat..we went to Sunsplash to keep cool. We had tons of fun. Although I couldn't go on any of the slides which I love to do I just settled for the lazy river and people watching all day. It was a nice cool day. We are all very tired and ready to sleep all night long.

~1st OB Appt

So today was my first OB appt. Everything went well and things are looking great. I was really excited about it all. We go back in 4 weeks and then we get to hear the heartbeat. I can't wait. I'm due March 8th. That seems soooo far away.
