We are having......

......only God knows! This cute, adorable, stinker made it impossible to see between his/her legs. The baby had the umbilical cord between his/her legs and kept a foot on top of that. No matter how much the doctor shook my belly and pushed and prodded the most that would happen is the sweet stinker would karate kick me and place his/her foot right back on top of the umbilical between the legs. We are very happy that the baby is healthy and active but disappointed that we left there not knowing. The nurse said maybe God just wants this to be a surprise and my response was,"God gave us a surprise with this child and I can't take anymore!" Mattie even started to tear up in the office when we couldn't find out. The doctor is going to do a quick peek in 4 weeks and try and see what the baby is. I pray that we would know, I really can't take anymore surprises. On the plus side, I did gain weight this month. I am now only down 5 pounds for this pregnancy. Yea!

FINALLY A NEW POST !!!!!



Sorry it's been so long since I have posted. Things were a little hectic for me in October and November and then the craziness of December. Time has most definitely slipped away. January came with the start of a great new year. Things at home were awesome, the kids were healthy and James and I were happy. The end of January brought a huge surprise, we found out that I was pregnant. A miracle has occurred, thank you GOD! After two years and eight months of not using any type of birth control and no fertility medicine I was pregnant. James and I being totally surprised also asked the question, "how did this happen?". Funny now but we were very serious when we asked it. James asked the doctor and the doctor said "I hope you know how this happened!" Needless to say a huge shock and surprise but we are very happy about it. The kids fight almost daily about if its a boy or a girl. We will be able to end this argument on Wednesday at 4pm. This pregnancy has knocked the rug out from under me. I have been very, very sick and just had such a hard time. I am only 18 weeks but very ready for September to come!

A few others things that are going on and a couple of cute stories from my kids. Mattie turned 5 in February. This makes me very sad. She starts kindergarten in September and that is so scary for me. I want her to be little for ever but it has been great to have a big girl in the house. She is a character and very funny. Wyatt turns 3 on the 5th of May. He is doing so good. He is talking so much that we have to ask him to be quite! Which so you know never works. He is loving school and has made so much progress. Even with all the progress he is still a crazy little monkey hyped up on caffeine. Very fun but very tiring. And now for the stories. Mattie fell and had her first big sets of strawberries on her knees and feet. Mattie, being the drama queen, acted like her legs had been ripped off and she was going to die. I, being the excellent mother that I am, told her to get up and walk in the house if she wanted a band-aid. One would think that with that type of response she wouldn't be a drama queen any more but she still is. Inside while doctoring the knees and wrapping them in bandages and gauze she very seriously looks at me and says "Mom, before you had me and Bubba were you a doctor? Your so good at this." I giggled and said "No baby, I wasn't a doctor." She responded "Then how did you get so good at this?" I laughed this time and said "Lots of practice." She looked at me and smiled and said "You should be a doctor, your so good at this." I smiled and hugged her and called Dad to laugh. She was just so sure that I had been a doctor.

Last night James and I had finally relaxed on the couch after a long day. Mattie and Wyatt were not in the relaxing mood. They were jumping and laughing and messing with each other. I gave two warnings and said the next they were going to there room. They of course started back up so Dad sent them to their room. Mattie immediately started pouting and hanging her head saying it's not fair. Jamie said "stand up straight and hold your head up" to Mattie. Behind her Wyatt is walking and stretching his neck up and pushing his shoulders up to his ears. Jamie and I our cracking up laughing and Jamie says it again. Wyatt starts again pushing up his shoulders and says "Daddy me is up". It was so funny and cute.

Again, I promise I will post more often and will announce late Wednesday what I am having. Until then, goodnight!
