It's September!

I can not believe how fast this year is going. On one hand it's good because our little guy will be here soon, but on the other it's sad because Eric leaves again in January and I am not ready to go through that again. Especially because Conner is older and can really say, and express how he feels and him telling me how much he misses and wants Daddy is going to be completely heart breaking!


Conner is doing great. He just started soccer yesterday and loves it. He's pretty good too, I mean for a 3 year old. :) He's all mouth these days, and that's not in a good way. He's so mouthy! We've been trying really hard to nip that in the butt before the baby comes. I am sure things will get worse once the baby comes and he realizes how different it's going to be. Right now he is excited to have his baby Brother though. He's doing great though and we love him to pieces!


As for me, I am doing good. I am 34 weeks pregnant today. I started having high blood pressure at my last appointment so I've been being monitored twice a week. We do non stress tests every Tuesday, and Friday. On Tuesday's they do an ultra sound to measure the fluid around him. Yesterday we finally got a doctor that let us look at that baby and showed us that it is indeed a boy! :) It was so cute! I really wish we could get a 3D ultra sound but it's so much money, and such a long trip to get one so we won't be getting one this time around. Other then that the baby looks great, and he's doing awesome. I get pretty tired these days and have already reached the "I'm done feeling". This pregnancy has been a lot harder on me then Conner's was. I also have "stretched out muscles" at the top of my stomach that causes me pain really easily if I over do it in the slightest. It wears me out! But I am doing good and am thankful to be able to go through all of this to have another miracle to call our own. :)

Eric is also doing good. Working a lot. I think he's enjoying it though because he doesn't complain. He's an awesome Daddy and has really taken over taking care of Conner when he gets home. Which I am so thankful for. He's always been an awesome Daddy anyways though! He takes good care of his Family and I couldn't ask for a better Husband! <3

So all in all we are all doing fabulous, and thankful for all we have. Just trying to get by, and enjoy our last few months together before deployment.
