4 Years Already!

I can't believe that Tom & I have been married 4 years! Seems like longer...LOL No, but really it doesn't seem like it has been 4 years already. How fast time files!



So I went to my 32 wk check up last Wednesday, the 9th and lil Christian is doing great! Heart rate was 146 and boy was he moving. He doesn't kick as much, because it is getting so cramped in there, but I do feel elbows, knees and probably other things. I can't believe that in 7 wks or so we will have another lil one in the house. I am so excited!

I have been doing a little shopping here and there. Tom and I went to K Mart looking for a glider and for a $100 highchair clearenced to $10!!! A nice wood one too! The I bought a onesie at Walmart on clearence for $2 that says "I'm safe in his hands" and I couldn't pass it up! Too cute! Then I went to Babies R Us and got the blanket to bring Christian home in, even though when arrives it will probably be like 80+! I also got the bedding dor the pack and play. So I think we are set now, other than me packing my bag. I also found the glider that I want at walmart, so I should get that in the mail in like 2 wks or less. Now, just to rest!
JT and I put it together today! What a big help he is!!

Updates

So I know it has been awhile, but between Easter, going to the petting zoo with out Mommy & Me group, Contractions/ stretching pains, trying to get everything prepared for Christian, almost passing out and then our computer freaking out, it has been a little hard to update. So here is the scoop...

We had a great Easter. We did an Easter Egg Hung the day before Easter and the parents we not even allowed to go in with the kids. Well they did it on a playground and all JT wanted to do was slide, so he found no eggs. Silly kid. But he still got a gift bag. Then On Easter we went to the Virginia Air and Space Museum. We had a lot of fun! Then we went to church. We had an altogether great day!

Yes, you read right about the contractions/ stretching pains. I am not sure yet just which they were, but I have a doc. appt on the 9th and I am going to have her check and see if I have dilated at all. I have had 3 days where I have had theses really bad pains that last for an hour. They are 2-3- min. apart and a min long and are so painful that I have to clutch the pillow really tight. Then on Wed morning I was at Bible Study and got really light headed and dizzy and had to lay down, for fear that I might pass out. This happened 2 times in like 30 min. so I called the doc. and they said I might be getting dehydrated or I might just be too hot! So I have to drink lots of water and have Tom keep the heat down and put clothes on when he gets cold, as I can only take off so much...LOL But the doc wasn't sure what to say about the pains. They may just be stretching pains, because I am as big as I was when I delivered JT right now. So I think this baby will definitely be bigger than JT! So we will see on the 9th!

And since it has been awile, here is my 30 week picture.

Pregnancy

There must be something going around or something in the water, because I know a ton of people (including myself) that are prego or just had a baby. My bestfriend just found out that she is preg.!!!!! I am so excited for you Jess! You are great with kids and so is Cris. Justus was so excited when I told him that his Auntie Jess was having a baby too! So now I have 2 babies to shop for............. :)

Friends Go through Pregnancy together!!!

JT & his Auntie Jess-

He sure misses you!

28 weeks!!!!

So I am now 28 wks! Only 12 more to go, unless Christian decides to come early, which I am thinking will happen. I am thinking the 29th or 30th of May, but we will just have to see.

Anyway, I had to get my blood drawn yesturday, to see if I am diabetic, which I am not. Thank God! And then today I had my 28 wk check up and they said I am measuring right at 28 wks, everything from my ultrasound looked good and Christian's heart rate was 158! He was moving like crazy while the Dr. was trying to hear his heartbeat. He was doing summer salts or something. Than I had to have my blood drawn again today, because I am RH- and have to get a shot for that too! Yuck! So all is good with our little Christian!

We are going to a baby class tonight, kinda just a refresher on what to expect, I think. Should be fun to meet other women in the area that are having babies too! Last time we went to the calss (when I was preg. with Justus) we got some free goodies. We will see.

My poor man-man!

What a day it has been and it is only 11am! Justus can down with a cough and fever on wed. evening and it got all the was up to 102.2. He was so tired that I couldn't get him to take any Motrin, so he didn't sleep very good and neither did I. Then on Thurs. he took the Motrin and the fever went down, but went right back up after the Motrin wore off. And then before bed he had more Motrin and the fever was gone again, and then it came back, so frustrating!! So now, today the fever hasn't come back so far, but since he can't blow his nose he has post nasil drip and ended up getting sick and now the poor guy is sitting up on the couch watching TV. I hate to let him watch so much TV, but what can you do when they are sick and just wnat to rest??

Sunny and fun in the Sun!!!!

It was 70 here yesterday, JT and I were out side almost all day. We went and did our errons and then came home and he played outside with his doggie bubble blower while I made luch and then we had a picnic on the back porch. After that he played some more blowing bubbles and then we read some stories and he took a nap.

.

After his nap, we went outside and played with the neighbor kids! Three hours outside on my feet was too long!!! After that we came in and rested and then had dinner. What a fun day in the sun!! Oh ya and my good friend Amy should be having her little girl anytime now...... making me even more excited for my lil guy to come. But he needs to cook a little longer! Good luck Amy!!!
