2O weeks... I didn't think I would ever get this far lol. I am becoming accustomed to the fact that I will probably be in this state for the rest of my 19 weeks. The highlight, I can really feel baby now. I can't wait for the rest of the family to be able to do so as well. Babies head always seems to lay to the right of my belly button and feet down into my pelvic. Every once in a while it feels like it does a cart wheel and takes the wind out of me, but it's cute. I bought this fabulous new Prego bobby pillow to help sleep, the thing is Fantastic. I've also picked up a few neutral clothes here and there, and washed all the boy clothes I kept. I'm trying to get everything done, I have a feeling I wont last as long with this one, my body is just tired. I woke up this morning feeling like I have grown outward 2 inches, There is no sucking in now. I want to enjoy this next half as much as possible, but then I want to meet our newest angel and squish its face. I'm so thrilled to be on the closing end. We are truly so blessed.

19 week photo shoot!

19 weeks and half way there!!! I am Csectioned so my babies are taken between 38-39 weeks. Praise the Lord! We  decided to celebrate with a family photo shoot. although I'm not huge, I'm big enough where I don't look like a whale in my face. And the weather is perfect. Here is some I have been given, I'll add more when I get my CD.

18 week Ultrasound

Hey ya'll it's week 18!
Baby is growing great, it is 8 oz., which is a perfect size. The last time I was in there baby measured a week larger, so thank God it decided to slow down. All the kiddos were able to join for this. It was a very blissful experience, the lady took her time and we were all able to enjoy watching our newest addition wiggle around. Baby really enjoys it's hands, they were everywhere. At the time it was head up and feet down. I can say that is the truth, I always feel as though there are feet in my pelvic bone. I also had a Dr. check up, everything perfecto there as well. All and all so far so good! Enjoy the little beans close ups!

Home School mommy away!

So I'm officially a homeschooling mommy! And a pregnant mommy. I do not know how smart that was, but it is a little late now haha. On a serious note I officially have 2 fifth graders, a second grader, and a kindergartner. Let me be the first to say, no amount of planning can prepare you for this. maybe its my hormones but man oh man am I tired at the end of the day. I do not see having the baby and nursing making this any easier so I must push through. We are on our third week. It is getting into a routine now. My second and K are easy as pie, my fifth have A LOT of work. They say Abeka is rigorous, well they were not joking. In the process of this, unschooling is a must. After 5 years in public school, being on a strict schedule, being told when to eat and when to play, it is really hard to break. They are a little lazy on me, makes me wonder if they slept k-4. I just have to stay on them, show them how important it is to be able to self learn. I trust in God that I Am doing the right thing, and he will bless us in this adventure. In the mean time we are all just adjusting, and I'm trying to keep my house clean, I didn't realize having them home all day was going to create a tornado lol. I hope my kids know how much I love them, cause they are going to owe me ;) ... Hope y'alls kids had a blessed and wonderful first day back at school, I pray they all get the education they need!
