Baby Boy #2 Update

Everything is going well with baby #2. 31 weeks as of yesterday. We are going to the doctor every 2 weeks now. I'm measuring normally - but i was measuring normally with Blake and look how huge he was! I did find out recently that I don't have gestational diabetes with this pregnancy which was fantastic news. We are really hoping for a smaller baby this time around - but we will roll with whatever comes our way. I have to say that as smooth as everything is going this pregnancy is slightly different than the last. I definitely have heartburn much more and I am more uncomfortable now that i have entered my 30 weeks. And I'm a lot more tired I feel like. Maybe that is because I'm also chasing around a 2 year old. This baby moves very similar to how Blake moved around - Very slow movements, not a lot of sharp movements which i'm thankful for. For a little fun I put together a couple of belly shot sequences. One of when i was pregnant with Blake and the other is this pregnancy. I'm feeling like I look bigger in this late stage than I did with Blake. Hopefully that just means that I have gained more weight and that this baby isn't bigger. Please cross your fingers for me. ;)

Red Bluff & Walla Walla

September was a great month. We spent the beginning of the month in Walla Walla with Chris' family. It has become a tradition that we head up to the northwest for Labor Day weekend and partake in the traditional Walla Walla activities which include country concerts, labor day parade and the good ol' fair. All activities I grew up doing, so why not expose the darling little boy to them. We always have a wonderful time and this year was no different. I forgot my camera however so not many pictures to share - only those from my phone.

Later in the month we headed up to Red Bluff to spend a few days with my family. Chris went deer hunting with my dad and brother and the girls (+ Blake) stayed behind and had a great time hanging out. My dad bought a motorized john deere tractor for the kids and Blake could not get enough about it. He is still talking about the tractor and the horsies and the Rhino that my mom takes him for rides on to feed the horses. A total boy we have on our hands. I love it!

Well enjoy the pictures from the month. I have been a little lazy about taking picture these days so there aren't too many. I have a feeling once baby #2 gets here we will be snapping away again.
