Due Date

I’m full term as of yesterday and I’m so excited to see what our little boy will look like. We have been all smiles ever since yesterday. I had an ultrasound done. We seen our little man he is head down and ready to say hi to the world.  We seen his spine his feet and butt. His little foot is what keeps kicking me in the side. It’s painful at times but worth it. It made me think how amazing being able to give life really is. I have a human growing inside of me that my husband I adore and love. We did that you know anyone can have kids but to be real parents its take a special gift. My labor with jay was hard because my honey was overseas at the time. He was able to see me before I left the hospital  he was delayed for a short time. It was nice to see him the two years we were apart was tough. He is here now  I just can’t wait. My little man just can’t wait to see his brother. Jay and Daddy are rubbing my belly so much telling him to come on out! I have to confess I’m a little scared to go into labor it has been eight years since I did this last. My honey tells me I’ll be fine just like last time no sweat Right! He makes me laugh so much. The baby’s room is all done clothes are wash and put away. My bag is pack and I’m ready well sort of. The one thing I won’t miss is peeing every ten minutes. I’m picking up big brother’s gift today so he won’t feel left out. We all took our last trip till next year and we had a blast. A little colder then what I wanted I’m not ready for snow yet. Jay and I pulled out the Halloween decorations and did the small stuff around the house. I have been cleaning like crazy but I guess that is normal it’s called nesting getting ready for the new baby. I swear I have cleaned the house from top to bottom like a dozen times not like it’s dirty but it makes me feel better. Updates will come soon on how far I am so stay tune for the good news!

5 weeks to go!

I’m getting so anxious to see my little boy. I have to say this experience has been the best. I was able to have my hubby with me this time. Thank God he didn’t get called back to the marines like with our first born. I think it has been great for jay because it’s something he has wanted since he was little. Besides all the sickness, bloated feet, er visits and weight gain which has all been in my belly. I’m great full that god has let me carry this pregnancy to full term. Even though my doctors where not so sure but everything happens for a reason. Steve has been so great rubbing my feet and back. Picking up the house work he has completely  taking over these nine months. Treating me like his queen has really given us the time to reconnect with each other. He is always kissing on me mainly my belly. He calls like crazy when he is not home. He always knows how to make me smile. I love my family! We are planning one last trip before the baby is born. Hopefully he doesn’t decide to come out early. I’m sitting watching my belly just go crazy he is like working out or something. Sometimes he will move for an hour straight it’s so neat. When he rolls it feels so weird. I pack my hospital bag today. Went to the store to get a gift for jay from his baby brother which I know he will love. This weekend we are finishing up the house. For the next few weeks I’m going to write another chapter in my book. Then I will pamper myself. Spend time with my two favorite men cook a lot and have fun.

34 weeks

Well what can I say I’m 34 weeks pregnant and loving it! What I do not like is the weather change it’s to soon. I still have a garden and would like it to grow some more but hey it has done really good this year. It double in size I have so many green peppers I have been giving then away. I have gotten over four pounds of habaneros peppers for hot sauce. I also grew basil this year which grew out of control so I dry it out and of course gave some to my mom and friends. I have pumpkins growing to that the squirrel planted for me. That is doing well also I already have good size ones to bake homemade pie this year. I’m trying to get everything ready for the baby so far so good. Steve is so over protected of me and the kids. He is forever telling me to take it easy because after the baby shower last weekend I thought it was time to have the baby. I was wrong thank god it’s too early he needs to cook some more. Jay is so ready for his baby brother to get here he is already asking to take a few days off of school to stay home with us. He is so cute! Wow only 34 weeks not to much longer I can’t wait. His kicks are so strong. I love sitting with my family watching my belly move like crazy. It’s funny because as soon as he hears daddy’s voice he just starts moving all over the place. Steve is a great dad and family man. We have already talked about maybe trying for a little girl in a year or two. We will see where we are first. My baby shower went great. Thanks to my mom and hubby and all the women who help get the food ready. I love all the baby stuff it’s so cute and little. I get to start putting everything in his room this week. Of course my loving husband will set the crib up and dresser. I think we may have a name picked out but not sure on it. We all like a different names but it doesn’t click when you say it out loud. Jay just started back to school and he loves it. Everything is just perfect can’t wait for the rest!
