Life, Pregnancy and other fun stuff!

I'm using my blog as a pregnancy journal…your free to read it if you want but it's mainly for me to look back on. :)

I'm finally in the second trimester! yay!! the first trimester was brutal. Not being able to keep down any food is the worst! I'm still feeling the morning sickness but i'm hoping it goes away really soon and I'm SO ready to bring out my body pillow for sleeping. There is so much I am doing differently this time around…like yoga, exercising, and prenatal massage. I did none of those during my first pregnancy. I was so sick the first time I couldn't do anything but lay down. I'm hoping the yoga, massage, etc will help me throughout the rest of pregnancy and with labour. I'm also planning to go as natural as I can this time. I was induced with Kaden and I don't want that again but sometimes you can't plan for what's going to happen.

14 weeks, 2 days preggers.

Cravings: Peaches, Pears, any kind of juicy fruit.

I just want to sleep all day.

If you've been there you know what I mean!

Pregnancy story: I went grocery shopping the other night by myself like usual, and as usual I was standing in the line up for SO long I was starting to get dizzy. I had a drink with me so I had something to drink but that wasn't helping so I sat down beside my cart for a few minutes. I felt better so I stood up and waiting longer…I started feeling dizzy again and I could feel the fainting coming on so I sat down on the floor and blacked out. I can't remember what happened but I remember a worker right beside me asking me if I was OK and sent someone to get me cold water. I was so embarrassed as there were so many people in the store but whatever! It was so hot in there! The kind worker ladies at Superstore were amazing and they packed all my groceries and loaded my car with everything! They were angels! Worst night ever but I will look back at it and laugh someday. 

As for my Makeup Career…well lets say i'm takin' a break for now. It kinda helps that I can work whenever I want. :)

The big NEWS!

We are expecting Baby #2!!! I'm so happy that the news is finally out because it was getting SO hard to keep it to ourselves! I'm 13 weeks and 2 days pregnant right now. Due August 23rd!! yes, another August baby! Wahoo! Baby and Kaden will be 2 years and 11 days apart. I found out I was expecting pretty early on this time…around 6 weeks. I missed my period and I knew, but of course took a test to be sure! I found out a few days before Christmas ( Dec.21st) and I didn't tell Ryan! I went to the doctor and everything in secret because I wanted to surprise him and tell him Christmas morning.  It was so hard to keep quiet as you can imagine. But don't worry I only kept it secret from my own husband for 3 days! ;)  I wrapped my pregnancy test in this cute onesie and put it inside a little christmas box. He was shocked! but really happy of course!!

How perfect of a find? and it was $0! no joke. Even the cashier was confused and I left with her in tears because I told her my plan to surprise Ryan. Thank you Target! 

The morning sickness kicked in pretty quick the day after Christmas and I've been pretty sick up until this past week. I have pretty much been house/couch bound for the past 2 months. and Ryan went away on business for two weeks so I was alone with a crazy busy toddler which was a lot of fun. :) I am grateful though because this pregnancy isn't nearly as bad as Kaden's pregnancy.

I had my first Ultrasound this past Friday on Valentine's Day!! Ryan got me beautiful flowers but of course seeing our baby was the best gift ever! and we find out the gender on March 23rd! I can't wait!!!

 so here is baby <3

Coming August 2014.

Kaden - 18 months.

Don't ask where this face came from. it's one of his many new faces! 

I can't believe our baby is 18 months today! He is off the charts for height/weight (as always), his favourite words are "what", "oops" "ouch", "Oh."and "mom" of course. His favourite movie is Despicable Me..he could watch it over and over all day if he wanted. He loves all his CAT toy trucks, books, pulling moms hair, and jumping on the couch. Those are just some things. He is also in nursery now at church. We sure love this kid…he keeps us on our toes and I only know this is the beginning. We love him and all his energy! if you know him you also know he has a charming side. he is a HUGE flirt! like where does that come from?

We love you Kaden.
