~Our growing Lexi and talking Caleb~

~Little mover Lexi~

So I had my appointment yesterday, and we are still having a girl!! YAY!! Lexi is doing GREAT looks and sounds AWESOME!!! She's a mover, the Ultrasound Tech was having a hard time getting good pics cause Lexi was moving all over, she was also facing my back so it was a difficult position to try and get good face shots, but she still got great shots. I think!!

Anyways she is weighing in at 1 pound, I have gained 12 pounds total. The blood results came back, Lexi is Spina Bifida, Down Syndrome free.

My cysts have not been hurting as bad.. Although I still get some pain it's nothing like it was when the one burst.. My belly is growing, she's an active little girl she is moving all the time I love it!! Enjoy her pics and her Ultrasound!!

~Crazy Caleb~

Wow he's a little handful!! He's so loving and talkative, he's so independent.. His most favorite words are Mine, NO, Whose that, What's that, Mouse(Mickey), and Mo(Elmo). He's so much fun!! He has gotten 2 more teeth so now his is up to 8 teeth. He's a shoe boy, if his shoe falls off he freaks out, he tries to put his own shoes own I love it!! Enjoy this little video it's Caleb dancing to Santa singing!! Caleb LOVES dancing.. Here are a few pics of Caleb, I was driving in a couple of them, I heard Caleb laughing and when I turned and looked he had put his own Beanie on, which he tries and tries to do once he takes it off. Caleb Feeding his puppy Tank ( the only time Tank likes him) and Caleb and Santa yeah he was not enjoying that!!

Well I will end here I could go on and on about both Caleb and Lexi but I don't want to bore anyone. Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!! I will post again after my next apt. January 11th.

21 weeks to go!! Our sweet boy but with an attitude Caleb!!

~Growing Lexi~

So I had a follow up apt yesterday 11/23/09. Lexi sounded really good heart just a beating away, that is the most relaxing sound.. Not only does it reassure you that she's there but that she will soon be here!! Can you believe it, 1 weeks to half way through pregnancy already!! It's hard to believe she will be here in less than 20 weeks!! I didn't get any ultrasounds yesterday they were all backed up, so I have to wait till the 14Th of Dec. and I am scheduled into ultrasound that day. I have my blood drawn yesterday for some testing it's routine stuff.. I hate getting my blood drawn.. Any how all in all everything is going pretty good.. Still have cramps from those darn cysts but I get through them I have to I have a 1 year old to chase after.. I am going to be posting a few belly shots.. Don't mind the stretch marks those are from my sweet Caleb.. I tell myself that they are a sign of very beautiful life!! And they are look at Caleb!! Anyways the pictures are taken at 16 weeks laying down and 18 weeks standing up.. WOW talk about getting big fast, but they say being that it's my second and that it's within a year of the first it was bound to happen.. But I'm not worried it all for the BEST!! How can you not love the gift of life!!

Well I will write again after my next apt. and I will have ultrasounds as well!!

~Now about our sweet Caleb~

It's always so hard to actually describe Caleb's little attitude, but wow talk about Father like Son.. My 2 boys are so so so much alike it scares me!!

Lately Caleb has been in the biting habit.. Pretty sure he picked that up from Day Care!! He's funny though cause he will bite you then hug you right after he bites.. Oh and the hitting WOW it's out of control.. I wish I could pull him out of Day Care but we really don't have a choice.. But all in all he is a very good kid he gets in trouble for his bad behavior and he gets lots of love for good behavior.. He has 6 teeth now and his favorite thing of all is brushing them.. We have a routine for bed it's get milk in a sippy while we read anywhere between 2-6 books, then we brush our teeth and wash our face, he's funny though he think when I say rinse it mean swallow the water.. But then he smiles in the mirror to show me that his 6 teeth are clean.. Then it back to the bedroom gives daddy a kiss and a hug, then snuggles with mommy while the lights and TV are out, if they are on he will not go to bed he will stay up and watch or talk to us till we turn them off.. Once he is completely asleep he gets moved to his bed where he sleeps peacefully through the night(sometimes), I'm a sucker for letting him lay in our bed.. I will here Josh in the middle of the night say are you kidding me?? I will wake up and say what and Josh will say does he really need to be right in the middle.. And I say do you want to sleep peacefully?? And Josh always says yes pushes Caleb closer to me and falls back to sleep, Caleb has to make sure he is touching one of us though with a foot or a hand.. I will wake up to a foot in the rib and a hand on Josh's back, shoulder or face.. Whatever Caleb can touch to know we are there.. But nothing is more Satisfying than getting woke up by Caleb touching my face while talking to me in the morning.. And it's funny he's so gentle with me but so rough with Josh I'll get a gentle wake up and Caleb will hit Josh to wake him up.. Anyways I could go on and on about Caleb but I think I will end here, for now!!

Till next time!! Thanks for visiting!!

Shrinking Cyst!! YAY!! And meet our baby........?

~Check up & the shrinking Cyst~

So I had my checkup yesterday, I had been having cramping and some very uncomfortable pain so the doc wanted me to do an ultrasound to look at my cyst. I have good news about that one of the cyst burst, and that is why I was in so much pain which in turn has shrunk the cyst from being my entire ovary to just less than half my ovary. So now I only have 1 cyst and it's less than half of what it originally was. So while doing the ultrasound Josh asked the Tech how soon do can you tell what the gender is, she said well usually we don't do it till 16 weeks, but I can check today and let ya know what I can see.. So she checks baby, listens to babies heart measures baby... Of course this whole time I'm thinking okay can you check yet... So she says are you ready for this?? So she gets the wand in position and I start laughing and look at Josh, he says what? She says It's a GIRL!!!! I almost cried I was so excited, Josh tells Caleb, Caleb our lives are over as we know it!! The Tech just Laughs and tells Caleb your going to be a big brother to your little sister. Then I said good thing she's a girl cause we don't have a boy name but we do have a girl name, the Tech asked what will it be I said Lexi Marie.. Josh looks at me and says my dad is going to have a hay day with this, Josh tells the Tech that his dad told him he needs a taste of both worlds, cause girls are a handful.

So all in all I am doing Great!! Miss Lexi is doing great, she looks good and sounds good!! I will update you all in 4 more weeks about Miss Lexi and her progress.

~Our Sweet Boy Caleb~

So day care is going good he seems to like it, they do lots of activities so Caleb stays pretty occupied. He is going to be Frankenstein for Halloween. Caleb is still working on cutting 4 top teeth, 2 have cut the other 2 are not cutting as fast so he is one cranky little man. He's so funny he's got a little attitude that makes you laugh but mad at the same time. He has been sick for the past couple weeks, we took him in yesterday and he has a viral infection, so he's on antibiotics. He never really shows that he's sick, being sick doesn't slow him down any..

Well that's all for now I hope you enjoy these little updates. Until next post!!

~My Birthday Boy~

So Caleb turned 1 and he's a little handful.. Wow he has got a mind of his own.. His birthday party was a blast.. When we got home from the party I don't think he knew what to do with all his new toys.. Between him and Josh I don't know who was more excited to play with what.. Josh is jealous of all the cool new shoes... Of course Josh wants new one now..

Caleb is teething he has 4 teeth coming in on the top and wow it sucks!! Between the crankyness and the boogers I'm not sure what's worse..

So Josh has decided that Caleb needs a big boy bed.. He said he's not a baby anymore and that Caleb shouldn't be sleeping in a crib.. To tell ya the truth I agree.. Oh and he needs a toy box Badly!!! So Josh said we are going hunting for those this weekend.. KSL here we come!!

I will end here for now till next time!! Thanks for reading our blog!!

~Baby #2 and my growing belly~

Wow it's so crazy how fast I am showing with baby #2.. Josh was looking at my belly one day and said "your showing already"... I was like you mean the belly I can't suck in anymore.. I need to take pics... Anyhow I have an apt on the 26th.. Hopefully my doc will say your next apt will be the day you find out what your having!! I hope so I so want to know, so I can start the planning and shopping!!

k till then!!

My walking baby boy, starting Day Care & turning 1 wow a lot is going on!!

Caleb is officially walking. He started about a week ago and now will not stop, which I am totally okay with. He has always gotten into things to begin with so walking of course has helped even more. He starts Day Care on Tuesday the 6th I'm so excited!!! I can't wait he will get to play with kids his age, he will learn how to share be independent (as if he's not already) and start to learn more than what I can teach him. I hope he does well I hope I don't get the dreaded phone call of come pick him up he's to crazy... No really he's a people watcher like me, he can sit there for hours and watch other kids. It's kinda funny how he just observes everything. It will be a new and exciting start for all of us. His aunt who watches him now will miss him that's for sure and I'm sure he will miss her.

Can you believe it, Caleb will be 1 on Monday the 5th. I can't it really honestly doesn't feel like a year has gone by. Well in some aspects it does but as for others not so much, so much has gone on so much has slipped by.. So many memories already so many more to come. At times I look at Caleb and think wow he's mine and other time I think wow Josh mini... He's the best baby, I mean toddler I could not have asked for any better, I'm also excited to see what his reactions will be when #2 arrives. Caleb adores babies now he wants to touch them he wants to hold them kiss them and poke their eye's out.. You know the usual toddler stuff. He can be a handful but for the most part he's amazing.

I will post a few pictures of Caleb that we had done for his Birthday. In courtesy of Isaac Wu Photography.. He did a wonderful job and put up with my little family..


Baby #2

I had my monthy check up on Monday the 28th, Baby looks good doc said I look good, although I have a bladder infection. But he said we are on track to a good start, I have another apt. in 4 weeks. Pray all is well then. Morning sickness (allday more like it) cought up to me on Sunday the 27th. It sucked I was on the motorcycle with Josh when all of the sudden I felt sick, I told Josh pull over or I'm going to throw up down your back. So he rushed to pull over and before he was over, I threw up down the side of me and down the side of his bike.. Jumped off before he complete;y stopped and finished throwing up.. I have felt pretty good since then. I haven't felt very nausuas lately, have been sleeping a little better especially now that the weather is cooling off. Had to upgrade to a size bigger in pants.. It was sad but I hope when I have this baby I will be back to my normal self like I was after Caleb.. Well I can't say normal.. Your never normal after a child.. But I feel pretty good. I am 10 weeks as of yesterday. Not exactly sure when I will find out what we are having but I will for sure keep you posted on when we do or when we are close. All of Josh's family and a lot of mine are voting for a girl. Josh's dad was funny he said he hopes it's a girl, he said Josh needs a taste of both sides..

Well I will end here for now.. I will update in a couple weeks..

~Baby #2~

So yesterday I had cramping and the night before I had cramping. And yesterday 9/17/09 morning I had some bloody show. So I called the doc. and doc said come in, I want to do an ultrasound. So I went in yesterday for the ultrasound and the power at the hospital was out the whole hospital had no power so the Nurse sent me home, she said "take a warm bath drink lots of water and lay down and relax." Pretty sure that was impossible with Caleb. So anyways they called me back this morning. I went in for the ultrasound and everything looks good, I am measuring at 8 weeks 2 days. Baby's heart sounds wonderful, baby looks wonderful, growing, growing. Still small about the size of a Gummy Bear. Anyways the bleeding was part of the blood pocket that collected before I was prego. The cramping is the cyst. And the bleeding has stopped the cramping has stopped. Everything feels fine today. So baby #2 looks healthy I look healthy I was sent home with a clean bill of health.

~Almost walking Caleb~

So Caleb is so so so very close to walking. He gets gutsy and will walk and try and turn around and go the opposite direction. Thing is he's getting pretty good at it. I will post a video. His burn has almost healed. Still a little scabby. But healing.

Well I will end here for now!!

Sweet Caleb..

So we went to the dunes over Labor Day weekend. Had fun as we always do with family and good friends The Sauro's. No one got hurt (thank goodness) no problems happened at all, it was nice to get away.

So my little Caleb turned 11 months on Saturday, and wow is he a cruiser. Of course me being mom doesn't like him to get dirty, eat sand or play in dirt and Josh being dad yelled at me every 5 min. telling me to let him play, your not going to keep him clean. Yeah hated it but what can you do right, he's gonna get dirty one way or another. So we get home from the Dunes and start to unpack everything, Josh pulls his wheeler out and pulls it next to Caleb. I was in the trailer getting the other wheeler ready for Josh to pull out, when I hear the worst scream ever come out of Caleb! So I run out of the Trailer can't see Caleb anywhere then I hear Josh say my pipe, he touched the pipe. So I run to the wheeler where Caleb is standing with his hand in front of his mouth, pick him up run into the house and put it under cold water, while he's still screaming, he at this point won't let me touch it look at it or ask to see it. I try to calm him down, Josh comes inside tries to calm him down and nothing will work. Till we go back outside and Josh puts him on the back of one of the wheelers where he finally stops crying. So of course I feel horrible!!! So Josh and him shower and I get him ready for bed when I look at his hand and he has a few blisters, now I feel even worse. But at this point he acts like it doesn't even hurt. I will try and take a pic but he's kinda stubborn just like his father.

So we have family pics tomorrow, so excited!!

Well til I post! Have an awesome Day!!

WOW.. Talk about a roller coaster!!!

Hello all I apologize I said I was going to update on Monday and I should have but a few things stopped me.

Where to start, K so my first appointment was Monday the 31st. Lets say I have had better ones. So I went in thinking I was 8 maybe 9 weeks along with baby #2 well when my doc did the ultrasound he had a look of oh crap.. Yeah not a look I wanted to see. SO I was a little freaked out even more so when he said, "Come back in 4 weeks I don't see a heart beat. Oh and I want you to come back on Wed I want blood work done." Okay you don't say those to me without me FREAKING out.. At that point he said your 5 maybe and this is pushing it maybe 6 weeks along. So I left thinking, heart beats don't show till 8/9 and if I'm only 5/6 then there wouldn't be one yet.. But why would he want to check my HCG levels.... HMMMMMMM. That was Monday.


Wednesday I go in get my blood drawn and the lab lady says "Is there something wrong, are you bleeding? Are you worried?" so of course when she says that I start to worry AGAIN. I said not that I know of, he didn't see a hear beat so he wants to check my HCG levels, she says oh well a girl her had the same issue and 2 weeks later they found a heart beat and all is well. I said let hope that happens..

Today (9/3/09) I get the call I have been waiting for from the nurse, well I thought I was ready and prepared to hear this phone call. Well..... The Nurse says we got your blood results back and we are concerned about them can you come in right now to get an ultrasound? I said yeah, so I leave work balling of course thinking the worst. Call Josh and Josh can't leave work so I call Danni and she can always make me feel better she says you don't know what's wrong or if anything is wrong calm down and call me when you leave the Doctor. So I get to the hospital get my file and head to Ultrasound, wait impatiently while the ladies take their sweet time chatting, finally she says 2 door on the left. So I sit and wait again. She comes in and says.... "Are you bleeding?" I said "No", "Are you cramping?" I said "no" so she say "well then are you having any problems?" I said "nope" so she says "hmm wonder why they sent you here then, lets check it out, I'm going to do a pelvic first and if I don't see what I want the I'll do a Vaginal." I said okay. So she starts the pelvic and says "K not what I want to see or can't see" "lets do a vaginal" so she starts that.... And then she say "Awe what I was looking for! a Heart Beat!!"... HUGE sigh of relief came over me!!! I get to hear baby#2 for the first time today SO EXCITING!!!! However she did find 2 cyst on my right ovary. Which my doc said he is going to look at, at my next apt in 4 weeks.

So baby and I are doing GREAT!!! I was measured at 6 weeks 1 day, with a due date of April 28th 2010... YAY!!!

Well I will end here for now. Lets see if I can post the Ultrasound pics..

Positive tests & Caleb updates

~Our growing Caleb~

Hmm where to begin..... He will be 11 months on the 5th of Sept. (wow how time flies). He started crawling on July 5th the day he turned 9 months that was way exciting I don't have to carry him from one room to another anymore. He now follows me everywhere I go. He got his first 2 teeth a few days before he started crawling, wow was that fun.. A very long night of crying and crankiness, and Josh ready to sleep in another room. Caleb only wanted me and only wanted to sleep next to me. Of course I gave in and let him sleep next to me (my little sweaty baby) Josh was not only unhappy but didn't sleep very well.

Caleb is on his way to walking he will walk along furniture and let go of the furniture and stand there for a while before he realizes that he has let go. I caught him the other day climbing the entertainment center, I could have died, he just looked back at me and smiled. He came to see me at work today and was trying to climb on my desk, I set him down on the floor and no sooner was he up and holding my desk walking then trying to climb my desk to see all the pictures of himself. He got mad though cause he could climb my desk. He has Josh's attitude to a -T- wow to think that I have to put up with Josh's attitude times 2. WOW I'm in for it.

~Now about baby #2~

So I am still in awe that Josh and I are expecting our second child that (crazy as this sounds) I have taken my 4th, yeah 4th pregnancy test. Again it has the 2 pink lines that read Pregnant!! I am excited and I know Josh is too (even though he hasn't said it) I'm just a little nervous. How, what, when, where and why. I mean I know how to answer all of those, I still just ask myself everyday. I am guessing I am about 9 weeks, we will for sure know how far I am on Monday the 31st. At that point I will let you all know when we are due and I will post our very first picture of baby #2.

K I will update on Monday after my First Apt. to follow up on baby #2
