week 17

we have so much to be thankful for and you are at the top of our list!

{daddy was keeping me smiling in the ER, he is good at that}

wow, where do i begin. i am behind on updating this blog and for a good reason. we have been running into some complications with this pregnancy. crazy how i had 3 EASY pregnancies and thought i would have another.

this weekend i starting cramping and bleeding a lot. our doctor told me to take it easy. i took it easy and it was getting worse. on sunday morning we entered the ER. the reason for all of this was unknown, the baby looked ok so they sent me home. monday it continued to get worse so we have been being watched very carefully little one. i see at least 1 doctor a week.

your littlest brother goes into surgery this week. the stress level in our house is a bit high so stay strong little one... we love you!

week 16

we had thanksgiving this week. it was just our cute little family. your daddy and i cooked for a small army, we are definitely beginners in the thanksgiving dinner department. sorry babes i personally do not like thanksgiving dinner, other then the rolls. you will have to find out for yourself when you are born if you like it.

i went shopping and got some amazing deals on toys for your brothers. i think they will be happy Christmas morning!

week 15

i know its blurry but... thats ok we are jumping for joy!

the beginning of this week was a rough one babes. i am grateful for a loving husband, you are one lucky kid to have him as a dad. he spoiled us with flowers, chocolates and even bought us some clothes {good bye waist line and you have nothing} to help cheer me up. i am also grateful for family and good friends. thanks for helping me this week, i needed you guys! pregnancy hormones are terrible, i know my husband agrees!

later in the week {saturday} we decided to take you up to big sur, a place i have never been. it is beautiful! i want to go back and spend a few days there hiking, etc. i think you would love it, your brothers did. we went with some good friends, the taylors, they are awesome and you are going to love them!!!

week 14

at your doctors appointment this week {daddy came} i let the nurse know i was having some sharp pains last week. she quickly said "well, do you want an ultrasound to see your baby." i love our nurse, she is so good to us. so we are 2 for 2, 2 doctor visits and 2 ultrasounds:)

{profile, body, ribs and arm}

you look perfect little one. you had your arms up near your head and you even waved at me a few times. i got to see all of your tiny bones in your hand... it was so cute!

i {daddy could not come, because it was early release and i had a play date scheduled with your oldest brother. so daddy took his lunch break and took the 4 boys to a park. this was the only time they could get us in to see you and i was not going to miss it!} was able to watch you for just over an hour.

i love you babes!!!!

week 13

congrats little one, we are in our second trimester!!!! that is a big celebration! i always had so much energy with our other pregnancies at this time, i am still waiting and hoping it kicks in soon. my bedtime used to be around 8pm, now with the time change it is closer to 7pm.

this week, we took you to a college soccer game. it was loads of fun, although it is taking me awhile to recover from such a late night... 10:30pm.

you had a baby boy cousin born this week. he is adorable and it made me so excited for us to go through this again... with you.

we also learned you will have a little girl cousin, she is due just 1 month before you.

your brothers all think you are a girl. at night they all say "good night baby girl". i have to remind them we do not know yet what you are and you could be a little boy but they say "no its a girl". have you told them something you are not telling me?

you have an appointment next week. i hope we get to see you again.

we love you so so much little one!
