Baby #3

It's been 2 weeks since I went to the doctors to check on my little baby and I am just now posting about it. I had to get an ultrasound because we didn't know what my due date was and I was so excited to go and see a healthy baby with a nice strong heartbeat. I have been so paranoid ever since I miscarried between Kallie and Preston. With Preston I got an ultrasound at 8 weeks because my Doctor knew I was nervous about miscarrying again. I had a good feeling about this pregnancy but it was still comforting to see a nice strong heartbeat. We are so excited to add to our family. It's been a good pregnancy so far I've only thrown up 5 times which is the same as with Kallie, with Preston it was twice a day. It's been really nice not being as sick but this time around I am just so tired. I have no energy to anything.

Here is our little Peanut at 8 weeks

The plan was to wait to tell the family on Mothers Day, Amy was the only one who I told right away. I should have known I couldn't keep it from my mom and I shouldn't have told Kallie that I was going to the doctors when Amy came over to babysit. We were with my mom and it came up that Amy was over at my house the other day and my mom said "oh Amy came over to Play?" and Kallie tells here No she watched us while my mom went to the doctors for a check up. My mom knew as soon as Kallie mentioned the Doctors. Oh well.
I couldn't wait to tell Kallie I knew she would be so excited. She has been asking when I'm going to have a baby for a long time now. When we finally told her she couldn't stop giggling and every time I would look at her she would start giggling again. When I told Preston he would just say "NO" but now I ask were is the baby and he will point to my tummy.
So I am due Nov. 30th and I keep on saying that I will be in the hospital for Thanksgiving. I seriously would not be surprised if that happens. Hospital food would not be good for Thanksgiving. We will see what happens.

Congrats! That is so exciting. I will start praying for you that you will not be in the hospital for Thanksgiving. I hate the hospital food. Good luck and I hope that you stay feeling good.

Yeah!! So excited for you and your family. Glad to see that you are not as sick, but hope that part ends soon. Hopefully the baby comes a little early, so you can spend Thanksgiving at home.

Whoohoo! I think it can still count as a "mother's day" news to share...it's almost here. : ) My family is the same way, acutally--if one person tells, it's around so fast.
