11 weeks

*Well tomorrow I'll have completed 11 weeks! yay!
*My morning sickness has gotten a little better. It's not every morning now. And I've learned if I eat something "heavy" before bed that I don't get sick in the a.m.
*So far I fluctuate between up or down 1 lb!
*With Will at 11 weeks I was about in maternity clothes and I believe up 15ish lbs!
*I still fit in my jeans :)
*My next midwife appointment is On September 8th!
*My energy comes and goes. But mostly goes.
*I think I can feel my uterus just about my pelvic bone :)
*No strong cravings, I attempt to watch what I eat.
*My stomach sticks out...I know it's not baby, it's bloat and my body getting ready. But I wouldn't say I'm showing yet.

March 18th

Our long awaited baby #2 is here!
Due around March 18th.
Dayzy and Chayse are excited and hoping for a girl.
William loves pointing to my belly...or anybody else's and saying 'Babeeee!"
I feel miserable and throw up almost every morning. (Hoping that's a good sign)
Today, Monday, I'm 9 weeks 1 day.
I feel like I'm already showing. My stomach has been sticking out since the end of week 7. It may be baby or it may just be bloating.
I gained 4lbs, but have since lost 2lbs.
My midwife put me on a strict diet because I'm "fluffy"
I walk 2 miles almost every day.
I eat 6 small meals a day and I'm constantly STARVING!
I refuse to gain 75 lbs with this baby like I did with Will.
Scott and I don't care what gender baby is at all. Some days I want a girl more and some days I want a boy because I already have everything.
William will be 2 1/2, Dayzy will be almost 9 and Chayse will be 7 when baby arrives.
As of now front runner name for baby if it's a girl is Charlotte Kay, no clue for a boy. We're open to any suggestions you folks have.
I can't help but still check how far along I would have been with last baby, but am so excited for this baby that the obsession doesn't make me sad.

Days gone by...

Here I am once again. Waaaaaay behind on blogging. I promise one of these days I'll get back into it.
Well from my previous post you all know that I'm now the General Manager of the Pizza Ranch. I love it so far! I actually thought it was going to be this huge headache and a lot of work, and in fact its not. But ask me in a few months when things start to break, etc. haha.

School starts soon for Dayzy and Chayse. Dayzy is going into 3rd grade already, and Chayse is in first. It's nice at the kids' school that Chayse will always have the same teacher that Dayzy had. That way the teacher already knows the family. So if Will would go to their school some day he would have the same teachers as them. They claim to not want to go back, but I think they'll be excited when they do. They are getting bored at home and with each other fast these days.

Will is as cute as ever and every day his personality gets bigger. He's latest love is Angry Birds. He cries for my phone and even has a specific sound he makes when he sees any poster/game/icon. He loves Barney and his Nani's (Bananas) He's still a little guy weight and height size, but I'm to too worried and we go back to the doctor sometime in September.

We haven't been doing much this summer. On sunny days we swim at Lake MacBride. Other days we shop or stay home. We wanted to go on vacation but Scott and I both are working lots of hours, and never decided on a place to go. Oh well. There's always next year right?

I'll update new pictures sometime again soon. I realized my banner has pictures from 6+ months ago!
