Of course I have told all family, at least I think I have! Life with a 15 month old is so busy that somethimes I forget to mention important things like…I’m pregnant again! Yep, not a joke, I am really 16 weeks pregnant. I am still sick as a dog and still praying that it will go away each day. Taking care of Brendon when I feel so horrible isn’t very fun, but I just keep thinking it will only be a week or so more of feeling sick…although I’ve been saying that since about 12 weeks and things are not changing.
My doctor has said the same thing…maybe another week or two, just give it time. Give it time???? I love when men say stupid things they don’t understand cause how could he know how miserable it is to feel nauseated all day long being pregnant, he’s a man! I remember I used to think that I wouldn’t be able to handle watching Brendon and being pregnant. Well, I guess when you have no choice you just learn to do it! So, even though some days are much harder then others and I feel like I’m going to lose my mind cause I never feel comfortable, I still manage to get done what I have to, and I still manage to feel grateful for having Brendon and having the opportunity to have another little one.
I always thought I’d want 3 or 4 kids, but I don’t know now. I’m starting to think after this one we’ll give it a few years before I even think about having another one. Not because of the work they are when they are here, but because pregnancy for me just sucks! I hate it when I talk to women who say they never had any problems or only felt sick for a day or two in their pregnancy…oh…boo hoo…try 4 months of misery then tell me your pregnancy was rough! grr….When I start to feel like I’m going to crack I just try to remind myself that I am so blessed to be able to have children, but yea, that doesn’t always work. haha
Well, if I can get past this sickness then at least I’ll be almost another one down! haha So, I have 4 more weeks and then I find out what I’m having. The day after my birthday I get to find out what I’m having which I can hardly wait for. If it’s a boy then I guess the whole purpose of trying to give Brendon a brother will be accomplished and that was kind of the purpose of getting pregnant, I was really really hoping for another boy so Brendon would have a little buddy to play with. But, then I think, if it’s a girl I could be done having kids if I really wanted cause I’ll have a girl and boy. I’m not sure which way to look at it yet, but honestly, I really think it’s going to be a girl. I just kept thinking if I wanted a boy so badly again that it would be a girl. I mean, could I really get what I wanted twice…guess we’ll find out in 4 weeks.
Either way, as long as the baby is healthy, then I’m a happy camper with a boy or a girl! Andrew says he can see us with all boys, and he really thinks this is a boy, so it will be fun to see what it is. First time around I thought it was a boy and Andrew thought it was a girl…so I was right! Hopefully I’m right again just to prove Andrew wrong! haha Well everyone, I hope this helped everyone get a little up to speed on where we are at right now in our lives. By the way…did I mention that Brendon just loves the Wiggles? Has anyone seen that show? It’s really cute, but after watching it every day, all day long..ahhhhh!! I hate the wiggles now! It’s about 4 Australian guys that sing and dance and it’s all tailored to little kids. It’s cute, but I start to lose my mind when all I get to watch is the wiggles. Oh well, it keeps him happy. Hope everyone is doing well and we look forward to hearing from everyone!
