7 weeks...ugh......

Nausea! Vomiting! Exhaustion! That is my life right now.  I am so tired and sick and sick and tired of it all! Thankfully, I am also very blessed.  My mother-in-law (Grammy) is willing and able to take over for me!  She has been over all week helping out with Chance and the house.  I don't know what I would have done without her! My mom (Grandma) also came over and spent the night one night to help out while Jimmy was out of town. They are such blessings! I cannot wait for the 2nd trimester....but I still have a ways to go!

The baby has doubled in size and now is the size of a raspberry and is growing eyelids,  it's nose and upper lip.

We are so excited, but aside from all the sickness...it just doesn't seem real yet! It's hard for me to wrap my head around all of this this time around! I don't know why...but before long I'll be showing and feeling...THAT will certainly make it more real!

We're Pregnant, Again!




It's official.  Chance is going to be a big brother! I'm six weeks along today.  I found out at a little past four weeks...while Jimmy was out of town! I had to keep it a secret for a few days!  Talk about hard! When he got home Chance gave him a gift. It was my positive pregnancy test in a box.  On the inside of the box lid I wrote "Congrats! You're going to be a Daddy again!"  He was SHOCKED and EXCITED! When we told our parents, they were thrilled as well. I'll attach the videos so you can see their reactions.

Right now the baby is the size of a lentil bean and his/her brain, muscles, and bones are forming. It sounds crazy, but I already feel my belly swelling, and my pants are tight! I'm queasy and nauseous already and TIRED. This time around is going to be quite a bit more challenging as I have a toddler to keep up with! But we are so excited to see what this little one turns into. Our last one is pretty awesome! ;)
