8 weeks 5 days!

Well it's almost 9 weeks now. I have been feeling super tired and crabby these past few weeks. My morning sickness is still hanging around but I feel ok if I wake up slowly and take my Zofran first thing in the morning. Usually I have to lay down for about 40 minutes after taking it before the urge to toss my cookies passes. I've been luck though, this is much milder than it was when I was pregnant with Mackenzy. Hopefully it will pass soon and food will be more appealing. Tomorrow is my 2nd doctor appointment and hopefully we'll get to hear the heartbeat! I also anticipate another ultrasound so I'll post a picture as soon as I can.

7 weeks and we have a heartbeat!

Here is the first ultrasound of our little bean. Actually he/she looks more like a little blob. But on the ultrasound we could see the heartbeat fluttering away! It was 146 beats/minute. Next time maybe we'll get to hear it. :)

We're Expecting!

It's true! We are expecting our 2nd baby! Mackenzy is convinced it will be a girl. The other day she drew a picture of Me, Daddy, Mackenzy, and a little baby wearing a dress. Mike is convinced it's a boy and I don't really know. I'd be happy with either one, but a boy of course would be great since we already have our little princess. :) Our due date is Oct. 9, 2008 and we have our first ultrasound appointment this Thursday. I'm a little nervous but will feel much better once we see the heartbeat. This week I definately feel pregnant. My nausea is rearing its ugly head! So far I've kept it under control with my Unisom/B6 combo at night and a Zofran every morning. I'll be sure to post a picture from the ultrasound!

Dancing girl

Mackenzy had her very first dance recital on Saturday. She did awesome and danced her little heart out. I wish you all could have been there to see it, it was so cute! She is the one on your far left with her back turned at the beginnning then she waves right before it starts

Get in shape!

We found an elliptical machine on craigs list for $75. Now I guess I have no excuses left. I must exercise. At least I won't have to leave the house and pay $20/month for the gym anymore. Just wanted to share my awesome find.

Pumpkin Patch

We had a great time at the pumpkin patch! We rode a real steam engine choo choo train, had carmel apples, a hay jump, hay maze, old fashioned car rides, said hello to real Turkeys, and tons more rides. It was great! I think we'll make it a family tradition. Here are some pictures from our fun trip to the Pumpkin Patch:
