32 weeks

I am now 32 weeks along/8 months however you want to say it and feeling good. Only gained 1 pound(the pound i lost) and the Doc says i need to eat more. That puts the grand total of weight gain at 8 pounds! I don't know if that is possible considering i have been stuffing my face since finding out i lost a pound at my last appointment. I also mentioned my braxton hicks problem i have been having and he said its too early for me to be having them so i now have medicine i need to take if i have more than 4 in 1 hour. Other than all of that i feel ok! Can't wait to see what happens at my next appointment! That was a little bit of sarcasm but i am thankfull for being healthy and not having any huge problems. Will keep you updated!

30 weeks

30 weeks along and everything is going according to plan! All my tests were good the only thing that bothered me at this last appointment was that i lost 1 pound. I know it is only 1 measly pound but really bothered me! Ever since i have been seeing my doc every 2 weeks i would gain a pound a week. Hearing that i lost a pound made me think OK so i was supposed to gain 2 pounds like normal but instead i lost 1 that i have already gained so that puts me 3 pounds behind! But i know that everything is going to turnout OK. My doctor reassured me that it was fine if i lost a pound and that everything else is normal. So after that appointment/mini-stress out session i stopped and got myself a Slurpee =].

On a different note i planted a garden this year! It consists of green beans, zuchini, spaghetti squash, cantaloupe, and watermelon. These were just leftover seeds i had from last year. But finally 2 weeks later they are growing! I will have to post pictures when they are a little bit bigger. And i want to see if anything else is going to come up. I only have 1 green bean sprout and all of my spaghetti squash is growing. I will update that next week =]

Easter

We had a fun Easter this year. Aiden was old enough to enjoy it =]. The Easter bunny got him an Elmo DVD and Elmo Easter eggs. We spent the day at my Grandma's house with family. And experienced a nice long but not too rough earthquake.

Aiden with his Easter eggs he found on the hunt.
He now knows the word chocolate =]

Egg decorating competition. We do this every year at my grandmas and some of these eggs get pretty imaginative! I made the purple flower as seen above.

My sister made EGG, my mom made the black berry.

My dad made "chicken's first egg." I thought it was pretty cute.
I hope everyone had a fun and eventful Easter this year!

What does he look like to you?

So me and Cody are having the hardest time coming up with another boy's name. Now that we have a face can you help us name him? Just leave what you think we should name him or what he looks like to you in a comment =].

3D ultrasound today =]

When i was pregnant with Aiden i was referred to a place that does 3d ultrasounds. Baby's First Photos did an amazing job with Aidens 3d ultrasound I'm going back today for the 2nd munchkin! I also got a DVD of the ultrasound and pictures =]. Here is one of Aidens. I got this done when i was only 24 weeks along with him. He had no fat on his bones!!! This time i am almost 30 weeks so I'm expecting to see a little chunkier baby this second time around. =]

Quite sad...

There was a car accident early this morning in highland. Both the people in the car i went to school with but i didn't know them that well. The driver is in the ICU at Loma Linda. The passenger wasn't so lucky. I judged at first and now i feel bad about it. I was thinking" there goes more young people for being stupid and drinking and driving!" I don't know if they were or not. But upon more research i found out that the passenger's fiance had died 8 months ago. She had just been to his grave at the beginning of this month. Like the nosey person i am i read all the stuff on her myspace and facebook. She seemed very lost without him but was trying hard to move on. I couldn't imagine what that would feel like to loose somebody you love so much. To have to be on earth without him. It touched me so much and it made me feel horrible for judging. But on a happy note. I know they are both with heavenly father now...together =]

28 Weeks

Went to the doctor today BOTH me and Aiden. My Obgyn's wife is Aiden's pediatrician and they work out of the same office, how nice is that? Anyways i was "seen" first the doc said everything is going good and I'm going to have to go get my glucose test done. This is the only test that i absolutely do not like! I wont say hate because i know that it is necessary, therefore, i don't like it. Bloodwork i dont mind but drinking that awful sugary, syrupy, "soda" is not my cup of tea. Anyways so that is the update on me. I see the doc every 2 weeks now so i will be posting pictures and updates every 2 weeks =]. And yes that is my belly button popping out. Its been sticking out since 18 weeks. I've got an outtie so i "pop"
earlier. =]

Aiden however was behind on shots. The story is when he was about 14 months old he was seeing a different doctor at a place me and Cody didnt like. For some reason they scheduled him to be seen on thanksgiving. I called that week to ask if they were open on turkey day and they said no but that they could see him the wednesday before. We go in that wednesday to find out that they wont take him because his insurance doesnt cover him on that day. It would have to be after thanksgiving. So we told them we wouldnt be back since i was going to be starting to see my doctor and we would just switch him over to the doctor he has now. So now everything is fine and dandy. My poor little guy had to get 5 shots and a finger prick =[. They also gave me a slip that he has to go get bloodwork done for lead poisoning, but we are definetly going to save that for another day. He was happy though after he got his lollipop. We go back in a month for him hopefully no shots this time.
