Weekend Recap

We had a pretty busy weekend here is Graham.

 

Saturday morning, Cody was off to work bright and early. Reagan was off to Little Gym with Nana to do some summersalts, and I got some yard work done.

 

Later that day Reagan and I jetted off to Grants 1st birthday party. We had So much fun playing and catching up with friends.

 

 

Sunday was my birthday, and my brain was clearly excited to start the day being as I woke up wide awake at 6a. Cody made me breakfast, and I set off to Fred Meyer to spend some birthday money I had been sent.

 

Nana came over at 12:30 to babysit so Cody and I could sneak out for lunch and a movie. It was so nice to get out just the two of us. We came home and celebrated with a family dinner and game of Mexican train, my favorite!

 

It was a great weekend and fabulous birthday!

 

Until next year.

They're Baaack!

After some encouraging from my Mom, I dug out Reagan's cloth diapers and am giving them another shot.

I threw in the towel when I realized the bulkyness of them was impeding her ability to roll over, now that she is up and walking I figured she wouldn't have a problem with the bulk.

So far so good, granted I just made the switch yesterday. We'll see how it goes, but I've already saved 4 disposables from sitting in a landfill for years to come.

10 Weeks

How far along:10 Weeks {July 16th}

Total weight gain: 5 lbs

Maternity clothes: I guess if you consider yoga pants a maternity item.  My "way to big" shorts are now only a little too big.

Bump Size: My tummy has "popped" this week. I went from nothing to baby bump...maybe it's just bloat from my top-a-ramen feasting... 

Sleep: Better, Reagan seems to be on a better sleep schedule, so she has been sleeping through the night. Thank goodness!! So now only up once to pee.

Best moment this week: Another doctors appointment marked off the books, it was pretty uneventful.

Miss Anything: Yes, still missing booze. What good is beautiful weather when you can't enjoy a cold one.

Movement: Nothing yet, although I had a dream I could feel (her??) moving.

Food Cravings: top-a-ramen, Subway sammiches, margaritas

Anything making you queasy or sick: No, the mornings are bad- but I think it's just because I'm so dehydrated when I wake up

Gender: I feel like it's a girl? Maybe it's just wishful thinking on getting to reuse all these adorable clothes I've been hanging on to...

Labor Signs: No

Symptoms: Yes

Belly Button in or out: In

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy

Looking forward to: Finding out if Cody's transfer goes through....tick tock...

 

 

Dear Baby #2

Baby number two,

A couple months ago I told you we are ready for you. Well apparently you are ready for us too!! Just this morning I found out I am pregnant!!!

Both Daddy and I are so excited, thrilled to have the next 9 months to plan for your arrival and then get to bring you home into our beautiful little family. I'm certain that you will fit right in to our craziness!

I want you to grow big and strong over the next couple months, seeing you in our first ultrasound will be amazing. I cant wait to hear your heartbeat and watch you wiggle and jiggle.

A million hugs and kisses will be waiting for you on the outside.

Love You baby.

Xoxo,

Mommy


{I found out I was pregnant on National Doughnut day, obviously we had to celebrate with a few!!}

Uncle Riley's Visit & Fourth of July

My very favorite brother came to visit from Texas!! Riley actually surprised me with a trip up for Reagan's birthday party, he was able to stick around for a week or two so Reagan and I got to see him a bunch! We are such lucky girls!! 

We had a low key fourth.  Fireworks, being sober and having a one year old really dont mix. We went to my Mom's and had a BBQ, we were home for Reagan's bedtime at 7:30 and Cody and I watched a movie and were asleep by 9. Lame. I know, but thats just how we roll these days. 

I am so glad we got to spend some time with Uncle Riley.

Until next time Riley, until next time.
