32 Weeks!

I'm 32 weeks today. I can't believe Cason is now probably somewhere between 4 and 4 1/2 lbs and 15-17 inches long. I only have about 6 to 8 weeks left. I'm hoping it's closer to 6, although we still have have some stuff we need to do before he's here and Josh has some big work jobs he's doing and he's working really hard to get them finished over the next couple of weekends so he can devote his weekends to us once the baby is here. It stinks now though because he's working every weekend all weekend. But hopefully these next weeks will go by fast. I'm going to the doctor every 2 weeks now, which makes time go by a little more quickly. I have an appointment tomorrow, although if it's anything like the last couple it won't be exciting at all. We are also going on the hospital tour on Thursday, so that should be fun!! Here are my most recent pictures!




31 weeks!

This one was taken last night so 31 weeks 6 days.

Potty Time!!

We bought Hayden a potty probably 5 or 6 months ago with the hopes that we could have him potty trained before Cason gets here. We would really prefer to not have to buy diapers for 2. Anyways, we haven't been pushing it that much..just trying to get him used to it and having him sit on it. Well, the other day I bought him some lollipops to bribe him with. I've let him run around without a diaper in the morning to see if I could get him to go that way..well this morning it worked!!! I noticed him acting funny and he then went to grab a diaper and I told him to go sit on his potty. He ran to it and peed!! He has gone twice today on his potty so I think we may be on to something! I'm so proud of him! We cheered and clapped, his potty sang to him (yes, we have a singing potty), and had lollipops!! Hopefully we can have him pretty much completely potty trained by the time Cason is here, so that gives us about 8 weeks! I hope this wasn't a fluke, but Hayden is really pretty consistent. Once he gets the hang of something he sticks to it so we'll see!

Happy 2 Year Anniversary!

Our anniversary was actually the 26th, but I didn't have a chance to post. I can't believe we've been married for 2 years, but they've been the best 2 years! I love my hubby and our life together. I've got one of the best husbands!!! Here are some pictures of us on our wedding day. Sorry they're out of order. I'm too lazy to fix them!

30 weeks!


This may be the last picture you see. I'm getting more and more self conscious of taking pictures the bigger I get. Hopefully we only have about 8 weeks left. I know he'll come when he's ready, but I've been letting him know for months now that his mommy would really appreciate him coming at about 38 weeks. I'm already really uncomfortable and despite the exhaustion, I'm having a really hard time sleeping. Well, I get to sleep fine, but if I wake up which is inevitable due to Cason sitting on my bladder, I can not get back to sleep. This is why I am up at 5:30 Monday morning writing this post. Anyways, I go to the dr this week and then I see them every 2 weeks from here on out so hopefully that will make the next 8-10 weeks go by pretty quickly!
