16 weeks

Baby number 2

There is absolutely nothing in this world like hearing your unborn child's heartbeat for the very first time. I got to see baby 4 weeks ago, and saw the heartbeat, but I didn't get to HEAR it until today. Derek and Wesley were both with me and I'm sure it was a moment I won't forget! I was so glad the midwife let me video it. (Sidenote, I REALLY liked the midwife I saw today. She was AWESOME!)

Alright, so here you go...baby number 2!

Wesley counting...well, sort of.

Sorry Cassie, this is not an update that you haven't seen, but hey, I'm updating my blog! Happy? :)

Sorry it's been a while, but I finally got a new phone that takes better pictures and actually takes video! Yessss! So, without further adieu here's what you're here for!





Also, just a little maternity update. I'll be 16 weeks on Wednesday, and tomorrow I have a checkup. Hopefully we'll get to hear little Goebey's heartbeat. I'm hoping to be able to record it so that I can post it, but we'll see!

Alright, that's all for now! :)

The Toddler Bed

Wesley is officially a toddler bed sleeper...well, at night anyhow. He's still not doing so well for nap time so we're keeping him in the crib for now. His naps are way too important to really mess with at this point so, we thought we'd just start off slowly. Is it the right way to do it? I don't know, but I guess really it's the way we think works best so that makes it right for us...and it's working, so that helps. :) He's been in that bed 2 nights in a row and we haven't had a single problem. No having to go back in and put him back in bed or anything. So we'll go with that for now and see what happens.

My kid may be a little weird

But he loves beets! Which is okay by me. (He also loves juice and grilled cheese sandwiches as you'll see too!)
