We have a new nephew!

My sister had her baby today! He was born around 10 this morning and he was just a little over 8 pounds, her biggest baby ever. He is doing well and so is his mommy. His brothers and sister were thrilled to meet him. Little Brooklyn wanted to bring him home from the hospital today. We can't wait to meet the little guy.

Climbing fun











Today we took some time out to go climbing with family. It was fun to have our adorable niece Kennady with us too. I think she had a good time.

Aaron got some good climbing time in. I am looking forward to being able to climb next season.




19 weeks

Here is my giant belly at 19 weeks. I promise there is only one baby in there. We have our "official" ultrasound this week and we are excited to see the baby again. I am also excited to reach the halfway point next week.

Nachos!



I haven't had many pregnancy cravings. For the most part nothing sounds good, ever. There is one thing that I crave every now and then and it is pretty powerful. I crave gas station nachos. They give me heart burn but when I want them I have to have them. It is pretty disgusting if you think about it.

Another Hospital Visit....Yuck


I hate the hospital. I don't know how people ever recover in there. I went to the ER the other night because I had been getting dizzy and feeling my heart skip a few beats here and there and then race a bit. I called my OB's office and they suggested I go to the ER. I spent 4 hours in the ER most of them just sitting around waiting while they monitored my heart. They recorded something funky and decided to admit me. I was ready to panic at that point because I really needed to be at work the next day. They poked me all night and monitored my heart. They woke me up a million times. Thankfully my sweet husband was right there with me the entire time. He even slept on the floor of the hospital room, although I don't think he really got any sleep. I wouldn't have survived without him. The next afternoon they finally did an echocardiogram and pronounced me healthy and able to go home. My heart is still flipping around a bit but I don't plan on going back to the ER any time soon! They think my heart is just reacting to all the extra hormones in my body. Hopefully everything will go back to normal when she gets here.

My girlfriends are the best

I came home from work the other day to find this adorable basket of cookies on my front porch. I have the most thoughtful girlfriends in the world. Thanks girls! I love them.

IT'S A GIRL!

We are having a little girl. We couldn't be more excited. I will post pictures of the ultrasound as soon as I get our scanner up and running.
