Halfway there!!



Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 20 Weeks - 20 weeks to go

Size of baby: About the size of a cantaloupe. About 10.5 oz and 6.5 in long

Total Weight Gain/Loss: I've gained around 8-10 lbs so far. Not to bad for the halfway mark.

Maternity Clothes: Everything I wear is now maternity

Gender:  Another BOY!!! We are in the process of picking a name.

Movement: He is kicking a lot. Bubba got to feel a little kick for the first time yesterday. I also got to feel Speckle's first round of hiccups.

Sleep: Has been very interesting. My dreams are so vivid that I feel like I'm actually there. Because of this I don't feel like I'm getting enough rest and am tired in the mornings.

What I miss: Nothing really at this point

Cravings: I've been craving cakes right now which Bubba isn't too happy about. LOL

Symptoms: Nothing to major - thank goodness

Best Moment this week: Bubba getting to feel him kick for the first time. Makes it a little more real for him.


I can't believe we are already at the halfway mark. Our 2nd little guy will be here before we know it. Bubba and I are going to start on his room soon. We got a lot of Kendall's old clothes and toys out so we can start going through them. This baby is going to have lots of hand-me-downs from his big brother. The next couple of months are going to fly by, and I can't wait!!

We are having....

ANOTHER BOY!!!

 
Sweet little profile
Bubba and I are very excited to be having another boy. We are going to love watching our two boys grow up and become the best of friends. Kendall is going to be a great big brother/protector. Also with all the boy things we already have this little one is set.


Everything looks great with Speckle. He is of course measuring a little big but that is to be expected since Kendall was a good healthy size. My concern was his head size since Kendall's head is a little on the large side. Our doc said Speckle's head is a little big but nothing to be worried about.

We are excited to start getting his room together, start getting his little clothes out and washed, and find him a name. Bubba and I are so blessed that not only did God entrust us with one sweet little boy but now he is blessing us with another.

My cup runneth over!!

First Day of School 2011

Kendall started back to school this morning. He had gone to one of the summer sessions and had a lot of fun, so we decided to sign him up for the school year. He got a new lunch box and backpack and was ready to go. He has the same teacher he had for the summer which helps. The only difference is that they will be learning more then they did over the summer. Today he will be learning the number 1, the color red, and the shape circle. I can't wait to hear how he did and all the fun he had.

Off to school he goes
He looks so big

On our way into to school we got to see Kendall's girlfriend Kagen and her mommy Abby. They are going to the same school just in different classes. They will get to meet up on the playground and share stories of how their day is going. I can't believe how big they are getting. Before we know it we will be walking into their graduations. :'(

Sweet babies
Once we got Kendall settled into class, Bubba and I snuck out. No tears this time which is great. I hope he has a wonderful day and has lots of fun.

Kendall, Mommy and Daddy love you beyond words. We hope you will always love school and to learn new things. We hope you have a great first year of preschool and meet lots of new friends. We are super proud to be your parents. WE LOVE YOU!!!
