Almost half way there!  I still can't believe that I am having another baby. Not to mention a boy! Are they much different from girls?  I still do not have a name for this little guy - well actually I do have a name, I am just waiting on my husband to agree on it. I told him that he has until the baby is born to come up with a better name. I know he won't and I know he likes my name, but he enjoys teasing me! Good thing I love him.  One thing I have noticed for sure is I am a lot bigger with this baby then my last two. At eighteen weeks pregnant with Lilly, you couldn't even tell I was pregnant! This baby has made his presence know a lot sooner. I feel big already! I am trying to make sure I am eating healthier, so I don't put on too much weight. However, sometimes I just can't resist a McChicken sandwich and delicious salty french fries. I am also trying to drinking plenty of water. At every doctors appointment, I have been told to DRINK MORE!  Overa...

I randomly stumbled upon this video a few weeks ago when I was in the thick of a very hard time. I couldn't understand why my family was not being blessed.

It took a couple minutes to wrap my head around a third baby, but the excitement soon took over. I told Aaron who was equally as shocked and excited. We decided to keep it a secret until we had our first scan.  The nausea and vomiting didn't start until mid April. Luckily, I had some medicine left over from my pregnancy with Lilly Belle. I did have to make a quick trip to the Emergency room once I ran out. I am finding out that it is becoming more and more difficult to get medicine for nausea and vomiting because the side effects it could possibly have on the baby. I honestly don't know how I would survive pregnancy without them.  My first scan put my due date around the 20th of November. I switched doctors quickly after that visit so will get a new due date at my next appointment. As of today, I am around 15-17 weeks pregnant.  Leading up to this lates...
