I know, I know. I am so super lazy. But I honestly havent' felt like updating. Til today. I ordered a quilt to xstitch for lil man. It's going to take FOREVER. But I will finish it. I won't give up because it's frustrating the living crap out of me. It's super cute. I lurve it.
Not a whole lot is going on thats new. I al 31.5 weeks now. Holy shit only 8 weeks to go. Maybe. I can't wait til he's born. I am ready to meet him and take on the adventure of being a mom of 2. I admit I might be bald for the first few months with both of my boys. But you know what? It's hair. It grows back! Amazing I know. Who would have thought?
I am really contemplating asking my doctor to give me an excuse to get out of work at about 36-37 weeks. I am so overly exhausted. Working 10 hour days really sucksass when you're pregnant. Even though I know ppl do it everyday. I just can't. I don't have the drive. lol. If I didn't need to work. I wouldn't. I probably wouldn't have to work if we'd learn to budget a little better. We do good for a little while. Then screw it up all over again. We've finally cut up our cc's and stopped using them. They are finally going down. Thank goodness. That is where we were the dumbest. In my honest opinion. But it will go away with time. We're on a good track. Digging ourselves out of the whole of debt we've dug for ourselves. Which feels nice. We have decided anything we want to buy. We save for a couple months and pay cash for. No more using credit lines. The only feasible one I will keep is our bestbuy account. Because they always have no interest for 18 months. Which I know we can pay off well before that hits.
Well I am done for today. I will update and finish my most interestingly boring update at another time lol

Oh fun!
So I had my 28 week appointment this morning. Where it was confirmed that I do in fact have gestational diabetes. Which sucks ass. But I'll deal accordingly. I have an appointment with a GD nurse tomorrow morning at 9am. She's going to teach me how to use my glucoma monitor and how to "take care" of myself. We'll see how this goes.
This is going to be a huge transition for me. I am happily taking on the life style change. Because I need to for my own health. Even after baby boy comes. Because of the PCOS it will be better for me even after he's born to keep my diet and exercise regimen. Well the excercise isn't so much rihgt now but after he's born. When I get the clear to start working out again. I am so going to. I know I need to lose weight. I know I would feel 10 mil times better if I did. But that's the update for today. I will update again tomorrow after my appointment. Or after work. I don't know yet.

Welcome to the 3rd Trimester
Oh boy. Here we go. I hit the 3rd trimester of pregnancy this week. I am expecting aches pains and things I don't want. But I know there is an end in sight. Only 12-13 weeks left of pregnancy. I am trying to get out of work at 36 weeks. So that I have time to think and rest. Make sure that I have as much energy saved up as possible for when baby boy is born. Its going to be a major transition going from one to two kids. I don't know how Wyatt is going to react to his little brother. I am assuming everything will go as planned but you never know. We shall see. Not too long to go.!!

Double Digits
Holy shit, I just realized that I only have 98 days left til baby boy comes. In all honesty it will be less days than this. But still. I have a little over 3 months left. WOW! Where has time gone. I can't believe I am going to be a mom for the second time. I just can't fathom it still. I don't think it will be completely real until I have him in my arms.
We are having another ultrasound done tomorrow. My OB wants them done once a month til he's born. For the only reasons I can think of is growth patterns. But its really to make sure that my fluids stay up. I'm excited to see how big he's getting. He should be well over a pound by now. I will attempt to post pics on here. But can't guaruntee it.

23 weeks
Only 16wks 6 days left til he's here. Well I assume it will be sooner because of the c/s. But anyways. It still gives me a timeline to count down. I am looking forward to maternity leave because I need a break from the craziness at work. I am planning on taking as much time as possible off. I want to have a week or so with wyatt before this one's born, so that we have some quality time together and I have time to rest before my life becomes extremely insane lol. Well that is all the mental energy i have for the night. TTYL

Happy Valentines Day
So here we are, Valentines day 2009. This will be our 6th one spent together. I cant believe that Josh and I have been together for almost 7 years. We'll be married for 5 this coming august. Which is also amazing to me. But anyways. We did our dinner yesterday, so that we didn't have to deal with the crowds tonight. We slept in this morning which was great. Wyatt even let us sleep in til 9am this morning. Woot! I am glad he sleeps so well. I am hoping that Baby Who will do the same. I am curious to see if he'll have as much hair as his big brother at birth or if he'll be completely bald. I guess we'll jsut have to wait and see. I am 21.5 weeks pregnant. So this means that I only have 18.5 weeks left. I plan on scheduling my c section with my next dr's appointment. So we'll know when Baby Who is going to be born.
Now some may think this elective c section is a stupid idea. But there is a truth behind it. I cannot give birth to a child larger than 8lbs. I have a deformed pelvis and it is super small. So I don't want to put myself through the pain of labor again just have it fail, again. Wyatts head was too big to come down and therefore got stuck. That would be why I didn't progress from 5cm for almost 19 hours.

Oh baby, you have a name
Those of us who need to know what it is do. But that only includes the hub and I. I will not post it here in fear of ruining the surprise with family. But it's exciting. I love his name and am glad that we came across it. It's nice to have something so soon. Well we had Wyatt's name picked out before we knew he was a boy. I just like to be prepared. this time around we are using one of my family names. Which is awesome. I am thrilled to have a secret from our families. This is going to be torture, on both ends lol. Because I know they will not respect that we chose to keep his name a secret. We will get drilled everytime we see them. But I will stand my ground and not tell a soul what his name is because I would like something to be a surprise. I almost thought about keeping the sex a secret. But decided to share that with everyone. I have a doctors appointment on Friday. Which is exciting. I will update again after then.
