Because the last week or so of being prego is really hard....

By -
So, I am going to do a little gratitude post every day until this baby comes. When things get hard, Dan and I have found that gratitude is ALWAYS the key to getting spirits up. We have so so so many things to be grateful for that it is actually ridiculous. So, here are my 5 things for the day.
1. I have a healthy baby growing inside of me and we are so blessed that he has made it full term.
2. I get another week or so to spend with my sweet little best buddy Mason.
3. My chesties (as my niece calls them) are mine for a little longer.
4. I can sleep through the night for 12 hours if I want to.
5. I feel completely ready for this whole thing to happen.

I can't wait to meet this baby, but I can enjoy this next week or two with a relaxed, happy attitude because I have no reason not to and my baby is just getting stronger inside me.

FINE!!! I will try to be positive too!!

Is your doctor already talking about inducing you?? My midwife sure is. Makes me want to flee the country. I am not even "overdue" until tomorrow! I am fine cooking a little longer...just get upset when "medical world" acts like I need some intervention.
Good Luck with everything. Can't wait for some pics and to hear your amazing story!

Baby time!

By -
So, I had my first appointment today to confirm that baby #2 is on its way. Sure enough, a quick little heartbeat was going strong. We can't wait, well, actually, I think we can. It will be much easier to wait for this one seeing that we have an 18 month old that keeps us very busy, but we are really excited for it to come around December 2nd ish. We are really excited for Mason to be a big brother because he is so sweet with babies these days and seems to actually enjoy them. I am 12 weeks and feeling pretty rotten. I guess that just helps me know that things are going okay with baby. Poor Mason has been watching alot of TV in the mornings and has not had as much play time with mom. It makes me sad, but you do what you gotta do to get by. Deep down i kind of want another boy, so I am pretty confident that it is a girl. Dan doesn't care at all, and I really don't either, but for some reason girls scare me. We are excited to see what we are going to get this time ...

Only Blue for us!

Yes, it's true, we are having another boy. I always imagined having two little boys running around and we are so excited for Mason to have a little bro. There are so many fun things to look forward to with having little boys so close. Can't wait for all of the baseball games, basketball games, guitar and drum lessons.....or ballet lessons if they so choose. Whatever the case, we can't wait to have two little boys.

Presents for Mason

By -
I am just wondering if anyone has suggestions for best gifts for a 2 year old boy. We don't buy toys very often so I always want them to be really good. What are the best toys out there. I am thinking a play kitchen? Play food? I just want to know if there is anything that Mason should not be going without. K- please help.
