week 18... whoops!

Soooo, I haven't updated in a few weeks..... whoopsie! Life has been very busy lately and I am exhausted by the end of most days.

Baby this week is about 10 inches long!! Crazy to think about that 10 weeks ago he/she was not even an inch long yet... creating a baby is something so awesome and remarkable :) I just love every minute!

I am HAPPY to announce as well that my morning sickness IS GONE!!!!! HOOOO-RAH!! Well, not completely... I still have a bad day here and there... but I am SO thrilled to not be barfing every day (or 2-3 times a day like I did with Landon!) My keen sense of smell is still in full bloom and I don't much care for it... it makes Alex revolting at times (LOL poor guy!)

Tuesdays my mom is coming out for a visit and will be here for 9 days :) Hopefully in that time I can get an ultrasound and find out what we are having! I feel SO STRONGLY that it's another little boy, yet I have this doubt lurking in the back on my mind.... time will tell!

Our stash of baby items is slowly growing almost everyday now! I've ordered so much stuff... currently I am waiting on our final (hopefully) stash of cloth diapers to come in. They are being shipped from China so it will take a while.. but I have 22 weeks (approx) left so I think we are good ^_~ Yesterday I got a huge shipment of wipes, bottles and formula. While we ARE going to breastfeed for as long as possible (well, up to 6ish months if he/she/my body is willing to cooperate) I wanted something in reserve just in case it doesn't go as planned, again. It doesn't expire until this little guy/gal potentially turns one, so after I am done breastfeeding we won't have to worry immediately about buying formula. I was planning on making one more formula purchase before he/she is born. Some people think it might be too much formula, but if that's the case I can always sell it before it expires.

Who knows what will happen..... but I am SOOOOO EXCITED regardless! I can't wait to have another addition to my wonderful little family :)

week 14

.... ya, so Im late posting this again. Sorry! Im fairly certain nobody reads this anyway so I dont feel too bad... lol!

This week, Sprout is a good four inches long and around 2.5 ounces (about the size of an orange). Hopefully only a few more weeks until we found out the gender! We are hoping to know before May, as my mom is coming to visit and it would be soooo exciting to tell everyone at once :-)
