Finally… Some Catch Up!

I know, I know, I have been the worlds worst blogger lately, but I do have a good excuse. I have been ill and busy. Is that good enough?

As for the ill part, I am now 19 weeks preggo and this pregnancy has taken EVERYTHING out of me.  The first 16 weeks I was super nauseous and could not hold anything down, but oranges, and then I got a nasty cold that has lasted me a  month and I am finally getting over. Now that I am starting to feel better I am just super tired. Does it ever stop? I honestly don’t remember feeling this way with Logan. Yes, I had horrible migraines and we were dealing with Wes’ chemo treatments so there was not a lot of time for me to feel ill, but the way I have felt for the last 19 weeks is for the birds.

To top it all off, I was super busy with pictures. Now, please don’t take that as complaining, I LOVE taking pictures and I LOVE the business, I had just wished I felt better and I was able to rest and get better faster.  Needless to say, I have felt, I have been neglecting my family and my home (by the looks of it, you can totally tell) since the beginning on November.

We are pretty sure our baby is a GIRL!!!!! I will be able to confirm this on Tues and I cannot wait to see her little body again. Let’s be honest, we totally wanted a little girl and had been praying since the time we found out we were expecting baby #2. I really didn’t think it would happen and prepared myself for another little boy running around destroying everything he came in arms length to. When I was laying on the table and our friend was trying to get the baby to move around so she could get a good look so many things were running through my mind. I couldn’t even grasp the fast that I was laying there with my second child inside me. I would be grateful for whatever the child may be, but yes, I wanted a little girl. When our friend Amy said “ do you want to see HER privates?” I could hardly believe what I was hearing. Tears started to run down my face as I looked at Wes. He then started laughing at me and said he thought I would only cry if it were a boy.  Now that I am pretty sure I am carrying this little girl I have so many fears for her and for us. Man, we are going to be in for it! Pre-warning to any boy that would like to call my house in 15 years… The shot gun is always loaded and ready for use, and you do not only need to worry about her father, but also her crazy mother!

I wish I had some pictures to share with you, but I have also been neglecting my family in that area. It is so true that when you start taking pictures of other families,  you forget to take pictures of your own.

Ahh. Here are a couple. Logan is now out of his crib and in Kohl’s bed. He is in this new faze where we have to lay when him until he falls asleep. At times this is nice, especially for a tired pregnant lady and other times it can be annoying. The only show Logan will watch is Sponge Bob which he pronounces, Ba bop. There are a few occasions where I can prop him up on his bed in front of the t.v. to watch ba bop and normally this is what happens. Boy,  he just melts my heart! ♥
