I'm back!

We haven't had internet, well I guess like all month almost! Here is a few fast details!! :)

At 34 weeks I weighed 133lbs, appointment went good. She gave me a two week break.

Next appointment was at almost 36 weeks, I think? Anyway, I weighed 134lbs. I saw the doctor that will deliver the baby, Dr. Marzbani, same doctor that delivered both Carson and Jackson. He looked at my belly and was concerned about the size of the baby, thinking he might be too small. So he ordered for me to have an ultrasound the next time I came back for my 36 week appointment.

36 week appointment .. we did an ultrasound on baby, apparently weighing in at 6lbs 6oz!!!! Didn't get to see any boy parts, yet again! Baby is just too crammed in there and had his legs closed tight. So we're going off that one time shot we got .. but I'm sure he's a he! :) He's head down and looking just so precious in there! I weighed 136lbs. Saw the doctor after my ultrasound (hubby went with me) and we set an induction date for January 20th if baby doesn't come on his own before then. Which I am hoping he does. But whichever, I'm alright with both since both boys were induced, not anything new for me. Baby will be here in less than 3 weeks for sure now! How exciting?!

We took down another wall in our house and took out the cabinets in our hall before you enter the kitchen. So it's way more open in there. And we put hardwood floors down. We're forever remodeling! We have so many ideas for this house, just can't really spend the money on fixing everything right away. But it's getting done little by little! We also got new furniture in the living room, on Jackson's birthday to be exact, ha. New couch, recliner, coffee table, kitchen table, and computer desk. I love love love our living room now. And we hung the big screen on the wall finally. Our house is so much more cozy and live-able now!

Jackson and Carson our sharing a room now. Jackson finally moved into Carson's room. Carson is sleeping on the top bunk and Jackson on the bottom. It's precious.

Christmas was pretty awesome. I got a really expensive camera I have no freaking idea how to work. I seriously need some help with that thing, it's nice! I wanted a new pocket book and hubby didn't know how to pick one out so he bought me a hideous drug store pocket book (which I almost fell out opening) with a $100 visa card inside to get whatever one I wanted! :) I cried on Christmas morning .. damn hormones. I love my hubby for understanding. The boys had a great Christmas and loved all the presents (of course!) I just love my family.

Prozac is amazing. I feel so me still, and so much more at ease with everything. I love it. Yet, I don't plan on taking them the rest of my life. I probably sound like some pill head, but really it's only 20mg (not much) just enough to calm my anxiety and all.

I feel pretty good, as far as being pregnant and all. I don't feel huge yet. Although, most of my maternity clothes are too small .. the shirts anyway. I wear a lot of Brandon's shirts! Thank goodness he is somewhat of a little guy, ha! :) I still wear my regular jeans, just with a bella band to cover where I can't zip and button them. I love wearing Brandon's long sleeve t-shirts and my comfy pants.

Tomorrow starts a new year, and I'm so excited! I'm hoping and thinking it will be great :) We'll be welcoming our new little man soon and probably completing our little (or big?) family! One downer .. I dread the 2 day hospital stay! I'm ready to get that over, and I'm thinking I might need some second wife/nanny woman for Brandon over while I'm gone. I'm worried I'll come back to a house turned upside down!

Oh yeah and it snowed! Gosh it snowed so much it was a mess. We never see snow. Not used to it around here. We had no power for a full day, but luckily we have a generator so we had heat from our wood burner, the TV and we hooked up a spotlight in the living room! Glad that's over! :)

I'll come back and add pictures as soon as I get them put on the computer off my camera and phone! Haven't had a second to do it yet.

It's Alive!!!

After literally weeks of waiting (well two!) it felt like forever, I finally had my doctor appt. Apparently, they want you to be just so far along before they see you. Did the medical history, boob smash, pap, and then headed for the ultrasound room. Probably one of the few I'll have since we're paying out of pocket. (I'll fuss about insurance later in another post) You don't feel pregnant until you see the proof and finally mine was coming. They've updated in that place so much. I remember I use to break my neck trying to look at the small computer screen the tech uses, but now they have this huge flat screen TV in front of you. Awesome. Luckily I'm small and as soon as she stuck the wand thing on me there it was, our little baby and the little sack thing it's in. I was so amazed, it was so tiny, and it's heart was beating!!!!! That has to be one of the greatest feelings ever to see that little tiny heart beating for the first time. It makes it all real. Too bad Brandon had to work, but I will get him to the 16 week big ultrasound I'm sure. Which is only 10 weeks away already! Our due date is January 27, 2011. The baby was measuring a day earlier but I think they would rather go by period date. It will be here when it's ready I guess! Carson is so excited about his new baby sister, for some reason he is so set that this is his sister, if it turns out to be a boy, the child will probably be confused .. but I'm trying to explain it to him the best way I can. He loves to look at the ultrasound picture and is constantly taking it off the fridge. Jackson on the other hand has absolutely no idea whats going on and will probably be jealous when the time comes, but I'm so glad he has Carson. My boys will be so close. I love it. I'll start posting belly pics soon, I haven't took any yet but I swear my belly has already changed. It pokes out a little already. Oh I weighed 109 lbs, just so I can keep up with my weight. She wants me to gain at least 35-40 lbs. Which, secretly (or not) I don't want to do!! But I am definitely hungrier. And I've been craving foods like crazy. I swear this baby has to be a girl. God help it if it's not. But I promise I will love my three boys like crazy if so!
