And the nausea is back??????

The people who named the term "morning" sickness are lame and totally off base. And those who said morning sickness is only the first 3 months are insane!

This past week has been interesting dealing with morning sickness again. Believe me, its nothing like how I felt at the beginning of this pregnancy or the entire pregnancy with Riley, but its back...BLAH!

Wah wah wah, right!

Haha. So, we're coming into the final count down to when Aidan gets here. Just about 8 more weeks. I cant believe it!

I am getting HUGE!! A few people have seriously asked me "Are you sure its not twins?" Normally I would want to punch them in the face for saying that, but when you compare me to the other preggo girls at my work, my stomach is WAY pooched out. There is one girl whose due date is 2 weeks away from mine and Im twice the size of her. Of course, she is tall, skinny and this is her first....but I can see why people might ask if its twins.

Im just going on the fact that Ive heard people say you show faster and are bigger with the 2nd. Yes, thats it! Not the donuts I eat twice a week or the caramels, ice cream and candy corn I have been stuffing in my face all week. No, Im just bigger cause its my 2nd baby :)

So while the boys are at the gym today, Im looking around the house and thinking...the house is SOOOOOO NOT ready, but at least we know we have Riley's hand me down clothes for him to wear. Im assuming the rest will just play itself out :)

Riley is getting real excited to be a big brother! The other day he hugged my stomach and said "mom, I just love him!!!" So cute.

A lot of his questions have stopped for now, but every once in awhile he asks when Aidan is coming out.

Im currently still at work but my last day will be April 22nd :) YiiiiIIIIIppppPPPPPeeeeEEEE!!
Im so excited! Work has been tough cause Ive had to make so many accommodations, ie: no driving, no typing. For those of you who dont know my job, driving and typing are probably about 65 % of what I do. Hahaha. I see clients too, but didnt realize how much no driving or typing would affect my productivity etc.

Luckily I have an extremely supportive work environment this time around. My last job when I was preggo with Riley was horrendously unsupportive and mean, so I feel fortunate this time :)

So our new favorite movie is "How To Train Your Dragon!" Love it! Riley said the other day..."Mom, when I get home from preschool tonight, maybe we can watch my dragon movie again. I will be Hiccup, you can be my dad and Daddy will be Toothless. I will carry my sword, you will wear your helmet and we can fix Daddy's tail." I am in love with Toothless :) He's so cute and reminds us of Doozer :)

Well, I guess more to come as the baby progresses. We have another appt on Monday and then I think we meet with the midwife every week or every other week until my due date.

Probably too much info, but we have decided to allow for a natural labor. No scheduled C-section. I was pretty torn for awhile, but Nick made a good point...why limit our options :)

So...we will see how it goes...

Hope everyone is well. Happy Saturday!!!!!
