My husband and I have been married three years on the 23rd of November 2009, but we were childhood sweethearts this is our second go at a marriage we were just eighteen the first time we were married and it lasted only a year. This time is much better althought every relationship has it's good times and bad, but everything we work through has made us stronger.

My husband travels all the time leaving me as a stay at home mom, it works best for our family that way. We are also in the middle of getting approved for foster care. Life sometimes is hard for me because I always worked and it is quite an adjustment spending time with kids instead of adults but the more time goes by the more I enjoy it. I found out I was pregnant with number 3 toward the end of our three week vacation in early August leaving me wishing I hadn't gained those 5 extra pounds.

The second pregnancy we found out we were pregnant two months after we were married(the second time) and that turned out to be a rough prenancy at 16 weeks I had a really bad bleed from my placenta tearing and that landed me on bed rest for about two months. We had hoped for a boy but we are so glad that we got a girl she is however a tomboy, she loves her dresses though. I never would have thought that I would have a little one climbing the walls and everything else in a dress. My first daughter who is five years older was the complete opposite wtih the exception of loving dresses. Valerie was the most mellow easy going child she has no temper whereas Kristine is not afriad to show hers.

I must admit whether this one is a boy or girl it brings me great comfort and excitement knowing that this baby will be different in it's own way. I can't wait for this adventure.

Well we found out that it's a boy on November 25th 2009. Caleb Ryan! Anyway I wieghted today and I am a pound and a half heavier than yesterday, what in the world?So I have decided to log everday my wieght gain for two different reasons, first if I do have another child then I can remember exactly what my weight gain was like and number two I thought it might help me be more aware and maybe not gain as much. So today I weighed 152.4

12-2-09

Ok this is getting to be a bad trend today I weighed 152.8 with nineteen weeks left I am really scared at how big I am going to be, my goal was to only reach 160(yeah right) !

12-3-09

This is insane today I weigh 153.4 one pound in two days is an alarming rate. I been using the treadmill everyday but have to be careful not to over do it.I think that I need to cut down on my milk consumption that is the only thing that I can think of that would cause me to gain weight so quickly.

Alright 152.8:) thats a little better think that I am having water retention really bad water retention wonder if I should be concerned, also I feel Caleb move everyday but it is not as strong as Kristine was at this point in my pregnancy. Kinda of a let down I love feeling strong kicks I am hoping as he get bigger that they will get alot stronger.
