Life Update

I have been told that I need to update this blog (wonder who that could be?).

Baby Jacker's officially has his first tooth!  It finally broke through on September 2nd.  He was working so hard on that stinkin' tooth, I am not looking forward to the others.  Jack now pulls himself up on EVERYTHING, and is starting to let go and stand on his own for a few seconds.  He is definitely a big boy, and will be walking before we know it (and probably before we would like him to).  Haha.  He is such a good little boy, we got lucky. 

Right now, Jackson and I are working on getting over our colds.  Gotta tell ya that it is no fun!  We have runny noses, coughs, and I am starting to lose my voice.  We have also had a slight fever, but a couple doses of Tylenol seemed to clear that up.

Yesterday I had an appointment for Baby #2 with Pam.  I have gained 25 lbs so far, yuck :(.....but, the baby is looking great.  Measuring about 30 cm, with a heart beat of 156 bpm.

So, that's all that is really new in our lives!  What about yours?

Baby #2 Ultrasound Pictures

I apologize for taking so long to put these up....but, we just got our new scanner last night. Haha, so you can cut me a little bit of slack right? Anyway, here is our beautiful baby! Oh, and don't bother analyzing the pictures....I didn't include any photographs that would allow you to know the sex. ;o)

Healthy Baby #2

This afternoon we had our ultrasound for Baby #2! We are so grateful that everything looked good, and we have a healthy little one. Luckily, the ultrasound tech was able to complete her "check-list".

We also did find out the sex, but for those of you who don't know....we are not telling anyone. Don't you like surprises??? ;o)

Ultrasound pictures to be posted soon. We first have to scan them into the computer (and we don't have a scanner), so it might take a few days.

Baby #2 Pre-Natal Visit

Today we went for another pre-natal visit for Baby #2. We have really taken to calling him or her Baby #2...maybe that will just be their name. Haha. Anyway everything looked good. His/Her heartbeat was about 160 bpm, and the size looked good for about 13 weeks along. Jackson went a long with me, and he was the talk of the office. He loves getting a lot of attention ;o) I lost 3 lbs in the last month, which is fine because I didn't start off at the best weight....pregnancy is my personal weight-loss plan. I don't know how long my husband will allow me to keep this up ;o). Anyway, another appointment in four weeks, and an ultrasound in 7 weeks. Zach and I have talked about it, and I think that we are going to find out the sex....but, keep it a surprise from all of you. Haha, I am a planner and I just love to torture all my friends and family. Just kidding. Hope all is well!

Initial Interview #2

So, today I had my initial interview for baby #2. It was a lot of the same stuff that I just experiences with Jackson, so really nothing new. I did find out that we may be able to hear the heartbeat at my next appointment (Apr. 22), but she didn't want to promise anything because it is still pretty early in the pregnancy. Timmy went with me, to help with the lug, Jackson....but, he was bored to tears. I took him out to lunch, it was the least I could do. We (Tim, Jack, Lauren, and I).....(oh, we picked up Lauren from Jessica's house just before lunch because she spent the night there) went back to the apartment and Jackson and I took a nap while Tim and Lauren did god knows what. Hopefully they behaved themselves. ;o) Oh well, it was a very nice day....and I am glad that I have such a great family around to help me out when I need it.
