Had yet another doc visit

Yes I had another doc visit.
I thought we were having another ultrasound to measure the baby "head-toe"
Come to find out, it was my "head-toe" visit. Not fun at all.
The baby is great. Heartbeat this time was 174.
I found out I've gained 1 pound since sometime in Aug.
They congratulated me on that. LOL

So I went to schedule my next appt--Oct 19th.
It turns out it's just a doc appt and Nov 16th is my next ultrasound.
Now I'm dying b/c I can't believe they are making me wait that long to see my baby again.
Not to mention my pregnancy will be half way over with, and I wanted to know what I was having (which is totally possible) b4 I went to NY on Oct 22-25th. That way if I found something awesome for the baby I would know whether to buy boyish or girlish. I put a call into the doc, but days later, no call back yet.

Today is Thurs, for those of you who seem to loose track of time.
Church tonight. We have a visiting minister and his wife. (Singing ministry) Cant remember their names.
Anyhow, we have opened the kitchen up again at the church and tonight instead of everyone going out to eat, we eat there. It's sort of a pot luck tonight everyone bringing something.
I've been asked to bring my spaghetti casserole thing that I created. Sounds scary I know, but it's really good and everyone loves it. It has fresh mozzerella cheese in little chunks, oh man it's awesome. I'm going to make it a little more spicy than what I normally do though. So I need to head to the store here soon and get my supplies.

Yes Sis Liz, I'm excited we are due the same time too. :)

I'm almost 12 weeks....

Can you say Hip Hip Hurray!?
WE are almost past the "danger" zone of when I have lost all 3 babies.
I'm super excited about this.
Now here's the thing...I think, and it may be wishful thinking, but it could be a girl.
I'm wider then I was with logan. Sad to say, I just look so much wider in the mirror. maybe my hubby put up a trick mirror in the bathroom or something. I don't know. (another wishful thought)
I have a belly already, and I can no longer fit my size 10 skirts. The one thing that gives me relief is that I've been told you show faster with each pregnancy you have. So hey this is my fifth, who cares if I showed starting at two months! lol I should be 3 months Sat if my calculations are correct.
I'm at that stage where I can't find anything to eat that even remotely tastes just wonderful.
This morning I got up and ate two scrambled egg sandwiches, and an hour and half later, I'm feeling like I haven't ate anything at all yet. I'm STARVED. I did this with logan much through my entire pregnancy, though everything seemed to taste good then. And I only gained 30 pounds. My goal this time is 20.....lol yea we shall see huh?!

On other news, I bought logan his first ''big boy'' bed! It's adorable and you should have seen me trying to assemble....well I got half way through and gave up. My hubby and I finished it last night in about 10 mins. Thank goodness for him. I took pics and will post later when I have time to upload them. He loved his bed and kept kissing me and just smiling so big. Let's hope he will sleep in it.

I'm also thinking about, not real hard mind you, about taking logan's nu nu (passy) away. The doc said it's time, and he also said that you have to wean the parents more then you do the kid. I believe this is true.

Well I'm off to go shopping...not sure what for yet. I have to pic up my pre-natal vit from the pharmacy and I'm going to stop somewhere to eat I'm sure....
Have a great one!

I'm "positive" ly pregnant

Here is a pic to prove it! So yes I took a picture of the screen with my cam phone. Couldn't help it. lol See my baby everyone! The legs and arms are little stubs right now, but give "it" a few more weeks and wallllaaahhh we will have full on legs and arms.






Currently I am nine weeks and one day. (or there abouts) Meaning my due date......April 10th. Yes Sis Liz and I are only four days apart in our due dates. Now in case you were wondering...Yes I did just loose a baby. July 5th was the last day of my miscarring process. July 7th was the big day. I tried telling the doctor I was further along, but he said I couldn't be. WEll the proof is in the baby itself! lol I'm super excited and passed the point of when I've lost the other babies. But so far all is well. By the end of Oct we should know what we are having. (girl girl girl...please be a girl)




We decided on a boy and girl name though to be sure we had our bases covered. The girl name has changed some though. It was going to be Sophia.

Now it's Brooklynn Lauren (lynn is my middle name. Loren is Ray's)

For the boy I wanted a biblical name and the only one my hubby liked was Joshua.

So to follow the tradition we've started with the L middle names. His name will be Joshua Luke.

As for my son now, Logan (that being his middle name), Raymond his first. He has just been given his first visor. (daddy wears them everyday)




I'm partial to him, but I think he looks absolutely adorable.



Here he is in his life jacket driving the boat with daddy. I'm amazed at how well he does in his jacket. He doesn't even complain. Whenever we hit a wake (i'm normally holding him for dear life) He screams and yells and smiles so big. I believe he is defintily a little boater.

For now I think that is all.
