It has been almost 6 months since I've posted?! Seriously, how did that happen? Since the last post a lot has happened, but the biggest news is we found out I'm pregnant again! If you follow me on facebook, that would of course be old news, sorry. I just entered my 3rd trimester, also really hard to believe, and I'm currently 27 weeks along! This pregnancy has been very similar and yet different from my previous two. Different in the fact that I just don't think about being pregnant as much. My plate is full caring for my two other children, and doing life. I guess by the third pregnancy it's old hat, I don't need to worry about all the other things I worried about with the first two! Its the same in the fact that it has gone very well so far, I'd even go as far to say that this has been the best pregnancy! I've started visiting the chiropractor again because of hip issues but that was something I dealt with in the other pregnancies as well. I have yet to share a baby bump picture so I guess its about time!
This picture was taken on our recent vacation to Maine the beginning of August, one of my favorite places!
We decided to find out the gender this time as well, and I wanted to share that with you all! We are having another BOY! We are all very excited! Here is the video we took when telling the kids!
Piper has been sure we were having a girl ever since we first told her we were having another baby, so she was a little disappointed at first but that all quickly changed! We now have fun asking her what we should name the baby, it's always something different and usually humorous! We haven't decided on what we are naming this little guy yet. Any suggestions?!
Well, that's all for now, until next time...

Yup that's right, we're having a boy! We are super excited!! You can read my last post here with our pregnancy announcement. I am currently 24 weeks along with this pregnancy, and so far it has been a great pregnancy. People have been asking me if I've noticed any differences between pregnancy's since most sources will tell you that you feel and carry different when having a boy verses a girl, but to be honest I really haven't felt much difference at all. My first trimester may have been slightly worse than last, with more nausea and tiredness, but that could also be because I'm chasing after a 1year old as well! Occasionally I'd almost forget that I'm pregnant because I really have felt great. Within the last two weeks I've definitely popped, and I'm starting to feel it in my lower back and hips a lot. Guess its time to go back to the chiropractor.
Picture time!
To be honest I can't believe I'm posting this picture because I totally look like I'm half asleep, it's mostly my fault though. I asked my husband to snap a pic while he was on his way out the door for work! haha
At this point I'm ready to start getting things in place and ready for the baby, but since we are moving it means the opposite is happening! I try not to think about it but we still have a lot to get done before baby comes. Lots of transition and change but its all good things, so I'm excited and only slightly overwhelmed! If you think about it, prayers would be appreciated. We have to get a second nursery set up once we move since I don't want to be moving Piper out of her crib so soon, but knowing the gender this time around I'm getting really excited about decorating and picking out fun pieces! I already have one or two little projects in mind that I want to get started on, I'll be sure to share them once they are finished!
That's all for now! I'll be sure to share more as the pregnancy progresses, and of course keep you updated on all the moving adventures!
