Just around the corner...

Well we have seen some signs of Spring here in Jacksonville lately!! No doubt this California girl is becoming much happier as are her little ones. The weather lately has been just B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!! We have had our Rainy/Stormy days however tossed in were also days where it got up to 87 degrees!! So bet your bottom dollar we have been outside as much as possible. We have been to pools, parks, playgrounds, friends houses, its just been so nice that I can not keep my children inside the house all day.

This is the last week in our little apartment. We have enjoyed our little stay and are VERY sad to leave the pool however we can't wait to get into our nice huge 4bedroom on base =) The weather this week is all rain and wind so that in a way is helping me stay inside and get a few things done around here before the move. I guess its time to get to the fun part, PICTURES!!

Jacksonville Zoo/Farm...

A week or two ago we decided we wanted to go out and do something yet we didn't want to go to far. Mommy began looking at things to do and found a little zoo right here in Jville. It was a tiny little zoo and was really more like a farm however,we had a great time and the weather was BEAUTIFUL! We enjoyed our little outing very much!!! Just next time we need to remember to have cash on us, because the kids and I had to hang out while daddy went to find an ATM, lol. The kids favorite part was petting a little baby sheep (which was like 2secs before they took her back in so we didn't get any pics) then feeding the goats. Nick LOVED this!!! He was so beyond happy!!!!

First and most of....

It's a Boy!

Sorry for the late news which most of you know about! We went 3 weeks ago and had a 3d/4d ultrasound done to find out the sex of our newest little edition. We both had our feelings that it was a girl. However we were wrong! So in just a few more months we will be welcoming our little Timothy James Richardet.

Little Timmy as Miss Hailey calls him is due on his big brothers birthday, so he will be able to wear everything we have kept from when Nick was a tiny baby. Not to mention a great friend of mine gave me all her sons clothes so they should fit during the seasons also since our big boys are only month apart! Of course he will have new things though, you all know me too well for that! We already have some hospital outfits picked out and will be getting them shortly!

Well as for the little man himself he is growing just the way he should be! He is Extememly low in mommys belly! I can feel him moving around all the time! Hailey and Daddy have been able to feel like once I believe however I dont think they really did! lol...Mommy has been having slight braxton hick contractions, which are fake labor contractions, they are pretty much just a major pain in the tooshie! They seem to come and go so its not too bad thought. My doctor dosn't believe that I will go full term because of my past pregnacies and from the starting of the contractions already, however you NEVER know!

We love our little guy so much and can't wait to welcome him into our little family!!! Now for the pictures!!!

New look on things...

Sorry I have been MIA for a while (ok more then a while because I still have a Christmas layout, lol), things have been crazy with both kids, the pregnancy and Haileys gymnastics. The weather has been amazing lately so we have been going outside as much as possible and doing things as a family.

I have a lot of cleaning and laundry to do today but look out in the next few days for a few blogs of the last few weeks and some news though you pretty much all know already unless this is the only thing you read! lol...Hope everyone has a good day and I hope to get one or 2 blogs up tonight!!! Im busy tomorrow so I wont be able to but they are coming shortly!!!

Yea, Yea, I know, I know!!

Sorry to everyone that has been waiting for this! Things have been a little out of it here lately and I have just been to tired and not in the mood to update. So I apologize!!

At my 9 week appointment I had my first ultrasound. It was pretty interesting to say the least. To start things out as soon as I got probed and things started showing up on the screen immediately I was shocked! This being my 4th pregnancy seeing two was unexpected! I just kept my mouth shut until we got to the looking at the uterus part. Then within seconds the lady was like "wow are you about to have your hands full, you see this right?" My reply was "umm, yea" lol. I didn't know what else to say so she told me we would go back and look later after she got the pictures she needed of my ovaries and what not.

So we come back to the baby/babies. First off my uterus looks really small and I'm not showing yet, well its sideways so that's why! There were CLEARLY two shadows of babies the same size when she kept going by then when we zoomed in just on them one disappeared?! Yet the other remained on the complete side. It was so weird so she zoomed back out and sure enough there as the other baby again?! The tech was speechless, no other tech had gotten in yet but she took pictures to go over again. When she looked for the heart beat we only got one but the one we did get was EXTREMELY light we couldn't even here it! However it was detected and the one that we did get was 183 =) She tried getting the baby to move to see if the other was hiding however that was not happening. With my uterus being sideways she could only see so much at the time.

So at the end of the ultrasound she said we will consider this a single pregnancy because I can't get enough evidence other then you and me clearly seeing a shadow of another baby. She told me to tell them next time I have an ultrasound to really look! Before this ultrasound I kept telling Andrew and he kept joking we were having twins, it would be hard however we would be thrilled!! I believe there is only one as does he. I'm barely showing for 11 weeks today and well I was showing at 11 weeks with all 3 others!

This week has me on edge, I have felt the baby once at like 7 weeks. But I have yet to feel the baby again. I know all pregnancy's are different but I have had a little bit of cramping =/ so I'm a little on edge! I miscarried with our 2nd child at 11 weeks and 6 days so just a little nervous! However a sign of relief is that there was a heart beat (183 =) ) and the baby was right on 9 weeks when we did the ultrasound! My next apt is February 17 so I probably wont update until then unless something with the munchkin comes up.

Here are a few pictures from the last 2 weeks and of the little munchkin (mommy and daddy think its a girl but only time will tell )
