In Sept our little family will be growing to three kids! I'm still a getting over the shock of having three kids by the end of the year.
My whole life I've always wanted 4 kids, hubby didn't really want so many he always said maybe 3. After M he still wasn't sure about having at lest one more like I wanted, but we figured we'd wait a few years and talk about it again. After M turned 2 it seemed like 3 was out of the question. As we found out a few months ago God had other plans lol!
Right now I'm 16 weeks, I'm feeling pretty good, as long as I have lots of little snacks during the day. My biggest "issue" right now is my blood pressure, cuz of being pregnant I can't be on my blood pressure meds so that means I have a higher risk of my pressure dropping and fainting. I've seen my heart dr already and I just have to keep doing what I'm doing, but I also can't stand still for long periods of time(my limit is about 15mins before I feel faint). Right now that's my biggest challenge, I try and do the dishes when there is only a few, and dinners I try and keep simple things that I don't have to stand there and watch very much.
The kids seem pretty excited about the baby. I don't think M full understands yet. I got the baby a "dresser"(it's a three drawer plastic storage thing) and put some of her old toys in one of the drawers, and we talk about how everything in that is for the baby and now she'll say "That's for the baby". N is super cute about it. He always says "your baby", I think cuz his teacher is pregnant too and that's way. We've been talking about where the baby is going to sit in the car the last few days. Yesterday he told me "Mommy I want to sit in the middle so I can watch M and the baby and make sure she doesn't open the door". Then today he told me "Mommy I changed my mind. I think the baby should sit in the middle. I don't want her to open the door and fall out and get hurt." How sweet is that!?
Next friday we find out what we are having I'm so excited I can't wait! We are bring both the kids so that will be fun. N got to come when we found out about M so I wanted to make sure they could come this time too.

Then There Was Three
Thursday, March 4, 2010
Been awhile!
Wow it has been awhile since I blogged! I always think about it when I'm at the store, driving to play dates, but by the time I get to the computer I just get on facebook play my games and get lost, or end up playing wow and getting lost in that lol! I've also been working on some baby blankets to sell on my etsy store one boy and one girl. I think they are really cute!
So lets see this year so far....we are 3months in and it's been a good year crazy lots of surprises, but good.
In January N turned 5, I still can't believe he's 5! He had a nice little party at home with some of his friends, it was Transformer theme again. This year I tried some games let me tell you that was hard, trying to get 3-5 year olds to listen cramped in the house(cuz it had rained that night and the ground was still wet) was ruff. This is way I'm not a teacher lol!
In February, M had her test for school, she did awesome! You may not be able to understand the girl half the time(though shes getting better and has words now) the girl is smart! Her test lasted 2.5hrs cuz she just kept answering the questions right, so they had to keep going. Needless to say she's not in N's class. N was sad about that, but he's better now. So M now goes to "school" two days a week for 30mins-it's just speech and it's with N's speech teacher which is pretty cool.
That brings us to March, which is when M started "school" on Tuesday. And yes I turned the big 3 0 on Monday. Didn't do anything just hung out at home with the kids and hubby, I got to lay around in PJ's all day, and Hubby dropped N off and picked him up from school even went and got Panara soup for dinner-which is what I wanted :)! It was a great day. I still don't feel 30, but I guess that's a good thing right!
