Our First Garden

Brett surprised me on Tuesday with planting our first garden! I love it and he did a great job, now it will be the true test to make sure we keep it going!!!!!! I don't have a green thumb but Brett is pretty good with that stuff, so I have faith in him that he will do a great job!!!!

Here are pictures from Carly's Graduation a couple of weeks ago!!! We had a great time!!!! It was a rainy cold day but we made the best of it!!!! I can't believe that Carly Barly is a graduate!!! Where does the time go!!!! Congrats Carly!!! We are so proud of you!! Looking forward to the party in June!!!!

Our Little Pumpkin!

I know its been awhile since the last time I posted. I have a few post with different pictures from the last couple of weeks! Looking forward to the next couple of weeks coming up! We have a lot going. Mitchell's Prom is tomorrow night and we are helping with his after prom party.

Time to get ready for work! Here is two pictures of an ultrasound we had yesterday. I can't believe all of the pictures we will have after this little pumpkin is born. This was taken at 16 weeks and 5 days. Everything went well yesterday and the little pumpkin was moving like crazy. Next appointment will be our big ultrasound. Hoping we will be able to find out what this little baby is!!!

Have a great day!!!!

(The first picture the baby is sucking it's thumb!)

Suprise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK so we have a little secret and I'm excited but scared at the same time to announce it! I'm 13 weeks pregnant. Still early, but I figure I should tell my blog so that it will explain why I have been so MIA lately!

Everything is going well. The first two months were hard. We found out so early that I was pregnant that it was very scary, not knowing what was going to happen. I don't have that innocence anymore that I had with Connor. So I know that anything could happen and that I'm a strong person and we will get through whatever god has given us! At about 8 weeks I came down with the shingles! I couldn't believe what was happening. Who gets shingles? I guess when you are pregnant you have a lower immune system and especially since I was stressed out more than usually I got them. Oh well, that was just one hurdle that we had to get over and we did. Everything is good with the baby.

Our doctor is the best and he is keeping a close eye on me. I have gone every two weeks since we found out and have had three ultrasounds since then and he is very happy at were the baby is. The baby is meaursing a couple days ahead of my due date. Which is November 5th, but most likely I will go around 36 to 37 weeks.

I still can't believe that I'm pregnant. I don't think it totally has hit me yet, but at the same I have become more calm as the weeks go by. I'm looking forward to when I will start to feel the baby and but not the anxiety that I'm sure will come with it. We will just have to take it one moment at a time.

I will post a picture of the little pumpkin once I get my camera cord back...wonder where it could be?

Have a good weekend! It is suppose to be a beautiful one here!

Love,

Erika
