23 week update

Wyatt is a very active little boy! Maybe he has restless leg like his dad or maybe he will be a soccer player. I could be sitting in my car, studying for an exam (he really hated that), laying in bed or on my side trying to get some sleep and he is going to be doing something. I'm not sure if he is flipping or turning, kicking or poking but he is doing something! A couple of nights ago was a first for Todd. He actually felt Wyatt move! 

I think God has a way of preparing a soon to be mother for all the sleepless nights to come. I haven't slept through the night since about 15 weeks, well I take that back there was one night I made it from 11:30 until 5:30 and I was amazed! Not only am I kept up by having to go to the bathroom but Coby and Kenzie also feel that at around 1 or 2 maybe even 3 they also need to get up and go out. I love sleep and already miss sleeping through the night. I miss being able to sleep on my stomach, my back and without two body pillows but at least I am not getting up at every 3 hours.... not yet anyway. 

As of Tuesday Wyatt weighed 1.06 lbs! Thanks Laurie!! It was such a treat to see him and hear his little heartbeat, 147bmp. His room is now painted, furniture has been ordered, his bathroom is put together and he even has a rocking chair in the living room (well it just has to be delivered). Now we just need our baby boy and I know we have a ways to go.

    Nicole, it's totally true about God preparing you for sleepless nights. I have never slept the same since my first pregnancy. I would kill for an amazing night's sleep...no worrying about another being. :) Just kidding, but know that I understand!!!

All night long

As I sit here pumping in bed at 3:30 in the morning, I wonder how I got my little one to sleep all night long in his crib! I'm watching wiggle and move on the baby monitor and thank God that he can now sleep all night with no help! Me on the other hand, well I'm trying to keep that milk supply up and create a supply for when we go out of town. When will my days of All Night Long come? - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

We all need friends

I remember almost a year ago when a good friend of mine invited me to a lunch group, Friday's at noon. At that time in my life I needed it! I needed to get out and meet new friends, other ladies with children about the same age, going through the same thing. This was a life saver for me. I am not a very outgoing person and it's hard to make friends when you don't have a full time job. Long story made short.... I made some GREAT friends in that group. As all good things to do though, things changed, people moved on and life became a little crazy for all of us. So the lunch group is starting up again and even though some people have left, we have some new faces to get to know! Wednesday a couple of us went out for a ladies night out and it was great! Two new people for me to get to know and I feel like I have made two new life long friends. It's so refreshing to just have a night out with the ladies and yes, we may spend the whole night talking about our babies and what t...

First trip to the ER

Image
Yesterday was a day of firsts! First time to try to potty training and first trip to the ER. Here is how we ended up there..... He woke up feeling good and we had a nice start to potty training! He didn't eat a lot of breakfast but some days he does and others he doesn't so I didn't think much about it. When lunch time rolled around he still didn't eat. He then became very cranky and uninterested in the potty thing so I let my dad take him up for his nap. He normally goes down pretty easy but today he didn't. He said that his tummy hurt and couldn't get comfortable. He finally fell asleep but didn't stay asleep long. He moved all around and cried out a couple times then finally woke up. He was NOT himself. He cried and wanted to be held. Then all of a sudden he would be fine. Then minutes later he would say his tummy hurt, then drop to his knees and cry and move around trying to get comfortable. It was so sad. My parents wanted him to spend the night si...
