26th week!!!

Yay!!! we are now 26 weeks pregnant. We will have our 3D ultrasound next week. Excited to see our babies face. I have been on this roller coaster called hormones.

But I wanted to touch base on friendship.

For me, I find it harder to make friends when your older. Plus if your a stay at home Mom and a home body like myself, that makes it more difficult. I don't pick my friends lightly anymore, due to having a family. It's my job to protect them. I am so grateful for the friends I have. They are the truest friends I will ever have. I love them with all my heart. I just wish they didn't move away!!! But I know who I am as a person. I am a great friend to have. I would do anything for my family/friends if they needed. I have tried over the years to connect with some Mom's at Miranda's school..... but when did it get so hard???? It's like this BIG project to say.... yea, we can hang out for a while. I miss the days when my girl friend Lisa would just drop by. It was easy then.... Now it's like what day works for you??? I always find myself doing all the calling or trying. It makes me feel like they don't have time. I do realize that not everyone is in my shoes. I moved to Orlando and had Lisa and Dawn as my best friends. I have friends that live other places, but they were the only ones in Orlando. Now they've been gone for a while and I'm still struggling. It makes me really sad to know there is someone SO close to me and our kids play great and we had good times at one point, I thought. Now we no longer speak. I feel like that is such a missed opportunity of friendship. It's a loss all the way around, for her, me, ours husbands and the kids. But what can you do?? Sometimes things like that happen.

But if we want to be truthful? How many real friends do you have?? I bet you can count them on one hand. They are hard to come by... I'm just grateful for the ones I do have...... :o)

Now move your butts back to Orlando!!!!!!!

25 weeks!!!!!

We are 25 weeks now. Doing well.... I'm very excited my last day at Stein Mart is Jan 30th, which is next weekend!!!! Here is a video of the baby kicking the remote.

Here is my belly

24 weeks!!!

So yes, we are 24 weeks now. I got to say, it is harder than I thought to go through this without friends and family around. Lot's of times I feel all alone. I get sad, and I know it's mostly hormonal but I do wish things were different in lots of ways. I gave my notice at Stein Mart. So as of Jan 30th, I will have my weekends to spend where ever it my take us. :o) Till next week.

23 weeks!!!!!!

23 weeks now!!!!! Feeling really good, just tired...... We got some items for the baby today from a friend. I have also had some friends ask me if I'm registered yet and I'm happy to say we got that done yesterday, at babiesRus. We are scheduled to have the baby on May 3rd. I am hoping to save lots of money this time around by cloth diapering and I will nurse again. But I will be doing lots of pumping. So we are slowly getting there!!!! :o)
