Why?

Why is it that now that I am into the second trimester when I am supposed to be feeling better, I seem to be feeling worse?

Why is it that I am now throwing up every day? Even tho I didn't throw up once in the first 12 weeks?

Why is it that I look like I am about 20 weeks pregnant even if I'm not quite at 14?

Why? Why? Why? That's what I want to know.

Big Announcement

So our big Announcement is that we are expecting Baby #2. We are due December 21st, so we will be having a Christmas baby. I had my first ultra sound today. The baby looks good. Its heart was beating strongly, at 169 beats per minute. Our baby is about 3 inches long from its butt to its head. The baby was moving quite a bit, and wasn't cooperating so the tech could get the proper measurements. I told Kris those must be his genes, since I would never be difficult like that. ;) Our only hopes is this baby will be strong and healthy. And maybe be a bit smaller at birth than Kyle was (9.8 lbs).

Update

My SSIL came thru her surgery with flying colors. Her vein is now 100% open, as opposed to 60%, after the emergency fix. They were also able to completely stop all her bleeding. And remove a large blood clot in her leg. They also put in a filter to stop any other clots that may occur from reaching her lungs, which if that happened could be deadly. She is getting moved out of the ICU today, and all things are looking up. Thank you very much for all your thoughts and prayers.

Finally

I finally got Kyles 3 year old pictures taken today. Only a month late. I don't know what took me so long to get around to it, but better late than never. Right? So here are a couple of my favs. The girls at the portrait studio did a real good job, considering Kyle hates to have his picture taken. Usually when you break out the camera he immediately turns around so you can only get pictures of the back of his head. Getting him to sit sill is even more of a chore. He doesn't want to do anything that you want him to.

Prayers Please

I am asking you to send out your prayers for my step sister in law (ssil) today. On Monday she had a routine surgery, and the doctor nicked a vein. She lost a lot of blood, and has been in the ICU every since. Today they are going to go back in and try to repair the damage properly. They did what they could at the time, but it was not a long term solution. So I am asking that you please send out some prayers todayfor my ssil, that this operation goes smoothly, and all this drama can be over with.

Gossip

So yes I have no life, but I thought this was hilarious. http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2009/06/world-exclusive-octo-mom-slams-kate-gosselin

So it is the Octo-mom slamming Kate from Jon and Kate plus 8. It also turns out that Octo-mom has signed a reality television deal. All I can imagine is that show is going to be such a train wreck. I guess I'll stop gossiping now, but I just couldn't hold it in.
