An exciting month coming up!

Hello everyone! Just wanted to say hello to you all/ :-) This week is starting a very exciting next month for me! Today I am 7 weeks pregnant. So far things have been going great. I have gotten sick a couple of times, having some pretty bad headaches, and I am super sleepy... But it is nothing too major! Evelynn is 7.5 months old. :-) I am leaving Friday night to go back to Springfield and be with my family for about 9 days! I will be staying with my best friend, Haley. Her wedding shower is Saturday, and then her actual wedding is a week later! I am so proud of her. During this time we are going to be hanging out, finishing up some final preparations, and pampering ourselves! On May 29th I am getting an ultrasound! :-) I am really hoping to hear a heartbeat and that everything is okay. In my heart I feel like it is. =] Part of me thinks I might be having twins, but that is probably just me being crazy! I am so excited about this baby! I have been looking at double strollers, and trying to plan what Evelynn will be doing while we are in the hospital. Things are much more complicated when you already have one baby to worry about. Then when we get back home we will have a week to re-coop. Evelynn will turn 8 month old, And Josh and April will be in KC area for 3 weeks! Granted, I don't know when they plan to see us during this time but we will for sure see them at one point or another! On June 25th is my first appointment with my OB/GYN.. so that is exciting! My niece, Elizabeth is going to have an early 2nd birthday party on June 30th and we will definitely make a trip for that. <3 Then I will be 12.5 weeks pregnant at the end of June. :-) Life is just so exciting and I am very blessed to have my family and friends, and to have time to spend with them.

Here comes Baby #2.

YAY!!! I am so happy to announce that we are expecting again. YES, it was planned. It happened our first month trying! I was charting so we should be due around January 9th or 10th 2013. :) We showed up at my grandma's unexpectedly on Friday and let them know. It was awesome! They had no idea we were coming, let alone that we had that kind of news. =] Everyone is a little shocked and of course some people will just never understand why you would want your children close in age, but they can get over it! I am SO excited. Prayers, positive thoughts and anything else is always appreciated. I am not quite 6 weeks along yet. =]

Excitement and Surprises!

Evelynn will be 7 months old tomorrow! I cannot hardly believe it. :-) She is growing so fast. Now she rolls around the place ALL the time and is trying to get her scoot down! My little sister, Shyann is going to be 15 tomorrow! This is also hard to believe. She is growing up WAY too fast. I love her so much and I only want her to be a strong, independent good person. I think she will be. Sometimes she gets a little wild but I guess that is all part of being a teenager right? Anyway- Our lives are going by really fast and changing by the day. So many wonderful things are happening in relation to our family, jobs, buying a house, etc. Life is a little crazy but totally beautiful in these moments. Mother's day is coming up. Next weekend. This will be my first mother's day! (I was pregnant last year but it didn't really count.) We are planning a big surprise for mother's day, and I can't wait. Seriously, this week can hurry up already! I can't wait for Friday!!! (The start of mother's day weekend. <3 ) Anyway, I will have lots more updates coming soon. I haven't forgotten about my blog...but due to several surprises and uncertainties in our lives right now there isn't much I can tell! I promise I will soon.:)
