7 Months and counting down!

I guess you can say I beat my goal but i guess i didnt really cuz from what the doctor said Summer was born at 31 weeks but so i guess i still have about three weeks lefted. Well atleast i gotten this far. But what worries me is...that when i post something about the little bit of pain that comes every now and then....one said braxton hicks contractions. And for one ive never really heard of it. So of course i researched it and kinda got what it meant. But it just cuz that im feeling them and if i do work myself to hard again and again....it could lead up to the real thing. Im doing alot less then i have been at work but i dont know. I got the support band thing....i cant really tell if the darn thing works. Im guess it did cuz when i took it off the first time i use it...i was having some pains in my back. But im going to wear it to work and see how it does. but besides all that.... Alexis is really causing so pain with all the movement and pushing. Last night i was sooooo uncomfortable in bed that i decided to get my other pillow and put it kinda in between my legs and it helped suppose my belly and that worked. I fell asleep after that. But then i woke up a few times during the night and then Summer had to wake up like 6:30 in the morning. Im not sure whats going on with her sleeping habits. But ill talk about that in a minute. But beside the sleeping...I pretty much finally got everything that i needed to go done. Mine and Alexis bag is packed. I was thinking maybe i should pack a small bag for Summer But she'll be at my mom's so i dont really need much beside diapers and wipes. Who knows. Ill figure that out later. I got all the bassinet stuff all washed and set up. So we are good! Now just waiting on my new arrival!




About Summer....Well her daddy had gotten her a few sets of Little people stuff and it kind driving my crazy cuz it all over the floor. I dont mind it being there but with the space we have already...we just added more stuff we probably could have gotten after we moved into a house. But i feel bad cuz we havent really gotten anything for Summer for while...and she seems to love them. So im not trying to make a big thing of it. I just want or hurt Bryon for my listening...to pick up the toys so i dont trip over them. With Summer's sleeping...Im not sure why she keeps waking up so early. Sometimes she'll have her good night and sleep all the ways threw and then she'll have her other nights that she'll wake up at between 4 and 7am. Maybe she know something is up...i dont know. We try to talk about her baby sister when we can but im sure she still doesnt get it. And thats ok.


We just have some worries that most parents having with having a second kid. How we going to make time for both kids or mainly Summer for the first 6 months since my time will be for the baby and feeding her and all that. Im sure we'll make a schedule some how. And my worse thoughts are when i go into labor and having Summer at my parents. Thats going to be the hardest. Ive never been with out her over night and it upsets me when i think about it. But i have to think about it and plan what stuff to bring and all that. Maybe i should make a list. I know she'll be fine...but shes my baby and i dont want to have to leave her some where. But thats just me being a mom.

On tuesday, i went and had my Glucose shot done and still waiting on the results. Probably will find out on tuesday when i go in for my appointment. Im really look forward to this appointment cuz im just get worried about the pains im kinda having. Im sure its nothing to worry about and its normal...they did say that i would have some pains but i didnt really know what that meant. So hopefully we'll see where im at and the thing that keeps going across my mind is "bed rest". Since ive been off for the pasted three days ive been trying to say off my feet and kinda act like i was on bed rest but still got up when i had needed to for Summer. Yes thats another worry on mine is going on bed rest. When i had my review at work...i had a talk with my mananger and told her about how i worried about bending over to much and all that. Luckily i was surprised to see that she took it better then i thought. (long story with that) So we'll find out everything on tuesday and im trying to get all my questions down...so i wont forget. And I will for sure let everyone know!

Well im sure i did alot of typing....so i will end here and let everyone what happens on Tuesday. But until then......

Almost 7 months!

Today I'm 27 weeks prego. It just gets more and more interesting with Alexis. A few days ago....She was moving alot and while me and Bryon was in bed just watching tv before bed....she was moving and i pushed on my belly button and she pushed back on it and it was so weird and alittle creepy but funny at the same time. It looked like an alien in my belly.

Alexis Moving in my belly!

Alexis moving in my belly and Summer playing!



Well im getting closer and closer of having everything set for the baby to come. Finally got the bassinet and washed the fabric thats on it but still have to find this thing she will lay on that arches her up when she sleeps. Its suppose to help with something... I think helps them breath better or something like that! And i washed her swing cover. All i really need to wash is the thing i was talking about that she sleeps on and her bouncy chair cover. Today we are going to walmart so i will be able to buy the few things i need lefted. So im excited cuz one of the things is her going home outfit!!!

With Summer....she's still the same as before. Still drives Bryon and I crazy but a joy to watch. The only thing she's started that im not liking is....throwing. She throws things at us. Most of the time it hurts. Some she throwing at my belly or she'll kinda hit it...which im trying to teach her no and not to do that but of course she doesnt listen. Hopefully she'll learn soon!

Well Summer needs to take a nap and i need to rest and take a shower....so until next time!

26 Weeks and 98 days to go!

Today I was trying to make a list of things I need at walmart and then i started thinking about the party that i wanted to have for Alexis...but im just not sure anymore. People from my mommy group...says they think i should have one cuz why would i have one for Summer and not Alexis. I dont want it to be a baby shower...i just want it to be a celebration that she's coming and it would be optional if they wanted to bring a gift or not. But then when i talk to people i know like a few family members...they are just saying it would be a waste of time. I dont know what to do. Bryon just says dont listen to them and just have it. But i dont want to plan for it if no one will come. And for some reason...it would make sense to not have one too cuz we are trying to get out bills in order and trying to save. I dont know. Maybe i just wont have one. And if people want to buy something for Alexis....ill just let them know that we are registered at babies r us. Its just stuff we really could use...now that we've learn with the first!

It just seems more and more unreal that we'll have two girls soon. I feel mostly ready for her to come. Besides the few things i still need to get. But mentally, i feel ready. I just dont know about the lack of sleep. Im sure it will be ok. I just would what she's going to look like. I hope she looks like Summer. That would be great! And i hope she'll have red hair like bryon's hair has on his chin or bryon color eyes. That would be so cool. But if not....we will for sure love her just the same. Im just worried when 7 months comes. Thats when Summer came...so im being extra careful. I think i might ask my doctor in a few weeks when i see him if theres anyway i can get a not saying that i shouldnt pick up things as much when im at work. Cuz our racks get so messy and i try not to do alot of bending cuz for one it sometimes hurts my back and two sometimes my stomach hurts. Yes yes i know i shouldnt be doing it in the first place....but you know retail (if you were done it) its alot of work and some of the time i dont get help and im usually by myself in my department. But im doing my best to stay off my feet more and just relax. Last night i was surprised that Alexis let someone else besides me and bryon feel her move in my belly. It was even better cuz it was her soon to be god mom. (as far as i know) It was great.

As for Summer...She is still a growing and more active girl. Still havent tried potty training yet but hope to soon. She's learning so much! She's smart like her daddy for sure. I just wondering how she will react when her sister comes into the world. Im sure she'll do great.

Im still waiting and hoping to get into a house soon! Just really hoping something will happen and then we can afford to move. I just keep thinking how wonderful it would be to have a yard and more space to move for the girls and i wouldnt have to worry about the cats as much withe the small of the liter box and all that. And it would just be easier to get out the door if we had to go some where. I just hate the stairs we have at our place now. Im just always worried one of us is going to fall down them. oh and a garage! That would be so great. All the unwanted stuff in the house...would be put in there! Some day my dream will come true!

Well thats my thoughts for today! Until next time....

Well for an little update.... so not so good things happened to me. Well on Sunday night..like around 11 or so...i was getting alittle hungry and when i opened the frig....down comes the candle thing and glass gets ever where and next thing i knew blood was everywhere and i looked at my hand and there was this big cut and its kinda deep. So im balling my eyes out for bryon and summer was about to go to bed and she starts crying harder. oh it was the drama. So my hand is still wrapped up and its hard using one hand for everything. But i was proud today when i wrapped my hand by myself and no blood came out this time!! So its getting better. And then....on monday...some how i hit my leg really hard and now i cant really walk on it.





Besides that...Summer learned the word no. She says it every now and then and she's getting better at climbing on things. She is for sure getting taller cuz the stuff she couldnt reach before....well she can now! As for Alexis....she's still kickin and hard. Sometimes when im at work she'll push or kick really hard and it actually hurts. But its ok.


well thats my weekend! =)

Could the days get any hotter? We've been roasting in our apartment and trying not to use the air conditioner but it hard not too when we're on the top floor and all the heat comes up. And it kinda sucks being prego will in this heat but im sure i can do it. I mostly did it will Summer but it was really in the middle...it was more at the end but still. Alexis is really active now. (well not at the moment lol) But it kinda cool but kinda annoying sometimes. Like when i try to sleep!!! Its ok tho. We had another baby appointment and it kinda made me mad just cuz we were suppose to be there at 1:45 and they finally called us at like 2:30. So we waited 45 mins and it only took 5 mins to do everything they do in the room. And i didnt even get to see my doctor. Well besides all that...everything sounded fine. The only thing i have to do before the next appointment is to take that one hour test (shot). I just hope they dont call me after and say i have to take the three or four hour one. I hated doing that. So when i have my next appointment I will be in my last trimester! So im excited.

Summer has been more active lately. Meaning, that we've caught her on the chair and on the dinner table and just last night on her dresser. I dont know how she does it cuz she cant get on the couch yet unless there pillows on the ground to staid on. Its kinda funny when you think about it. This dvd she watches every now and then called "My baby can read" or something like that, that you see on tv but mostly at night. Well some of the things on there, she's learned. They say to put arms up and arms down and she can do both now. She knows mouth and we are trying to get her to know her eyes and ears and mostly her stomach. I think she knows tummy cuz every now and then she'll point to mine but we're trying to show her that she has one too. She kinda getting it. And i noticed she knows a few more words that she says. It mostly words we say to the cats which is kinda funny. Ive heard her say no but its not very much and i cant really think of the other words but its a few more then last time. So im happy about that. But other then that... She's just been a pain lol keeping us on our feet (well mostly bryon since i cant really get up that fast)


Its getting more and more harder to move around and even get up. Im getting bigger and bigger. Hoping to make an appointment to get pictures done and maybe get the 4D sonogram. I really just want to get updated pictures of Summer now that she's 18 months. But we'll see. Im still having my good days and bad days. Some worse then others. But im trying to work with them. Just getting more worried about the bills. Well now that the check went threw for the pre-paid legal thing...hopely we care get the rest of our money that we got for signing people up. We already got one...which was cool. Im just hoping the meeting we are having on friday will go ok...and hoping someone will sign up. In some ways i have a feeling that the person that im bring will maybe sign up. But you never know. Just keeping my hopes up high!

We are just taking it day by day and seeing what happens! Until next time....

All most there!

Well tomorrow I will be 6 months prego and It still unreal that I will have TWO girl in 3 months! I so cant wait. It will for sure fill out my day when i have nothing to do. I cant wait to get my enery back and do stuff i couldnt do when i was pregnant. Like have my pepsi back even tho i kind been drinking it alittle more then i should but ive been so good with it. All i drink is water mostly. The only real thing(s) Im worried about when the baby comes is handling both when bryons at work. Or if i need to go somewhere...i dont know how im going to get both down the stair in one piece lol. Summer is learning the stairs but im just still worried that she might fall or whatever else. Well hopefully something will happen with the business and it will take off and we can afford a house to rent. Just trying to still keep our hopes high. But besides that. I got my hospital bags mostly packed. Just need to few more things for me and the baby and ill be set. And I want to put the carseat in the car to just have it ready but i know its still early but in our case from last time who knows what will happen lol. I guess im kinda nesting from what people call it. cuz im wanting to washing the blankets that i havent even used and still have to bow on them when Summer was born. We got so many...we just couldnt use them all so i just put some away. But Summer seems to like one of the blankets so i ended up washing that one for her and maybe sooner or later she'll use it at night or something. And theres the boucey chair and swing and the baby's bed that i need to get from my mom's and wash all of that. And trying to fingure out what we are going to do about beds when the baby actually goes to the crib. Still looking on craigslist.com for a starter bed. Its just hard also cuz when we have the money...there's nothing and when we dont...there's a few for some good prices. Its sucks. And im also trying to find a little house that Summer can play in cuz she loved the one her cousin's had but they price those so high. I dont know. Im sure we'll find out! Well I think Summer is getting better on behaving but the newest thing she has done but hasnt done it again thank god...is climb our dining room chair. Me and Bryon were both surprise to see her up there. Im surprised she hasnt tried the couches. The only thing we really need to teach her is to get off a bed and if and when she does...we can for sure get her a starter bed. But for right now im kind worried about that cuz lately she's been whining when we put her to bed at night and she hasnt done that for a while but i think she's getting use to it again. We are trying to put her to bed earlier cuz this 11 o'clock bedtime is getting old...so i think she needs to get to bed at like atleast 10pm. I know we cant for 9 really unless i quit my job. cuz when we both work we get off around 10pm and she's just to much when we get home. We need that quiet time lol. It will be hard sometimes when i come home and not she her cuz she'll be in bed but its for the best for at least right now until she get older.

Another thing that might be happening is.....potty training! Now that she's 18 months...she's kind showing more signs that she might be ready. It might take longer from what i read if i start earlier then i should but i think it will be a start. I'm just not all sure how to start it. I know some just put them on the potty when the mother or father goes. But i guess i cant look it up too. But her signs are....she takes her diaper off when shes wet or dirty (or atleast from what i seen) and when i ask her if she needs to be changed...she'll grab her diaper and sometimes go in her room and kinda one more thing is....yesterday morning her diaper was dry....which could mean that she tries to hold it in. I know if give her enough to drink so i know thats not the problem. I guess we'll just see what happens. Not going to rush stuff.

Well beside Summer.... Alexis is still moving like crazy. I cant wait to see her and what she looks like! Ive been thinking about getting the 4D sonogram since i really didnt get the chance to do it last time. There's this place i heard about that holds up to 10 people...so i wanted to bring some of the family to come and watch whenever we end up doing it. This is reall a must for me this time. So much i didnt get to do before Summer was born but my goal is to do that and take studio picture of me being pregnant but that best thing about the pictures is that it will be even more cuter with Summer in then. Cant wait!

So much to look forward too. Well for Bryon and I...we are just working out stuff just as a couple. Just trying to bring back all the love. Its just been alittle hard with having Summer and then get pregnant and our jobs and then starting the new business and being in this small place. We are just try to manage it all. I know i havent been the greatest people in the world but I always say it the baby and it will get better when the baby is born or maybe a month after the baby is born so i can get use to waking up when the baby does since im not a morning person. I LOVE being a Wife and Mother but it doesn get hard and sometimes i maybe not act like it but i do. I do my best in everything i do.

Just hoping everything will work out sooner or later with money and our job (mainly mine) and just handling the girls when they are both together. Wow that weird to say. Its always been just Summer now it "Girls"...Summer and Alexis! Crazy! I love it!




The day before i turned 6 months!


Summer's messy face and she turned 18 months!
