My name is Kelli, I'm 19 years old. I live in a teeny tiny town in Michigan. I have one beautiful little girl, Adelyn Avery (8-8-06) and my baby boy is due 9-2-08. I am engaged to the man of my dreams, Jason. We have been together for almost 3 years. We found out I was pregnant with my daughter when we were 17. She was a BIG surprise for us both, a very pleasant surprise though. This time around, we were both aching for another baby, but we decided that we weren't going to "try".. we were just going to go with it and see what happend. New Years Eve I took the magical pregnancy test, and viola! It was positive! We are very excited, as are our families. I can't wait to meet my little boy and hold him for the first time. I'm just hoping that labor is as easy this time as it was with Adelyn. :o)

{May 15th}

Today is shopping day! Me and Adelyn are going to buy a pack n play for baby brother. She really likes to help me get ready for the new baby, even though she doesn't fully understand that there is going to be another baby around. She says "brother" and kisses my belly and says 'baby' when she points at it, but I know she doesn't understand the changes that are going to take place for her. That is my biggest worry... how is she going to adjust? She has been the center of mine and Jason's world since she was born, and now the light is going to have to be shared. I'm sure every mom has the same worry. It's scary having to think about dividing my time equally between both kiddos. I just hope that Adelyn understands that I will always love her the same as I always have.
Anyways, baby boy is kicking me like crazy today. I have an appointment tomorrow for him. I can't wait to hear his little heartbeat again! I'll let you guys know how it goes tomorrow!

{UPDATE OF MY DAY}

Well, Me and Adelyn went shopping and found the perfect pack and play, and her and baby boy got new clothes. It was so nice to take her out and have a day with just the two of us. I stay at home and take of her everyday, but to go out with her is very nice {especially shopping without daddy :o)} I'm feeling so great about everything right now. Earlier we stopped and picked Jason up from work and headed home. We walked in the door, and our puppy somehow got out of his crate, I will never understand how he did it though. He chewed up one of my plants and he pooped on Adelyn's blanket {Note: Adelyn carries her blanket EVERYWHERE and refuses to nap without it}. So I had to throw her blanket in the washer and she had not had a nap yet and it was going on 2:30. So I had a cranky daughter, a mess all over my kitchen and living room floors, and one pissed off fiance. It wasn't pretty in my house. So Adelyn's blanket got washed and dryied and she finally got her nap. So I sat down on the computer, getting on here and everything, and Jason went and turned off the breaker to shut off the computer. I was also talking to my best friend Jen on the phone, and he unplugged that! I was so mad! I went in the kitchen to ask what the hell he was doing, and he starting yelling at me to get off my ass and do something around the house. I clean this house EVERYDAY. I think he under estimates how much work it is to keep the house looking emaculate EVERYDAY! Since I dont work I asked him if Adelyn and I could have some money for shopping today, well he threw that back in my face! He told me not ask him for any money until I can get off my a** and actually do something. I went off. I am a very good house wife I think, I do everything in this house so that he doesn't have to, and I do that while tending to Adelyns every need. I know most of you know what I'm talking about, but he's never had to do it, so he doesn't understand. So I took my puppy outside and I cried for a little bit... He really hurt my feelings. Then we had dinner and I didn't really talk to him until after we put Adelyn to bed, just an hour ago. then I jumped in the bath tub. He knocked on the door and asked me if I needed anything while I was in there. I told him no thank you, but he came upstairs with ice water anyways. He tries to do little things to make me feel better when he knows he hurts my feelings. So he apologized. Now that my little break down is over and I explained to Jason that he needs to lay off and acknowlege the things that I do around here instead of complaining about sandwich crumbs on the counter, everything just seems better. Damn mood swings and over sensitivity and hormones! I wouldn't change them for the world!
I hope you ladies are all feeling great and the men on your side aren't on their periods!!!!

{May 16th}

I have my appointment today. I'm not sure what they're going to do to me yet. I am 24 weeks right now, and I am still seeing my Family doctor instead of of my OB. My family Doctor is a much shorter drive than my OB. But I am suppose to go see him (my OB) at 26 weeks. I'm wondering if they are still going to have me see him even though I am going to an appointment today. I don't know, I guess they'll tell me. I'm nervous, I've NEVER gone to an appointment for either pregnancy without Jason. We got in quite the arguement this morning, So I know that he is going to probably stay at work late. Tonight he is having all of his buddies over, So I'm going to be here getting super annoyed with them supper quick. I like them, but I have no tolerance for men right now. I'm sick of Jason calling "crazy" and "psycho" everytime I get upset. I wish he was more sensitve and supportive, but I'm assuming that is too much to ask out of a guy.
I'll let you guys know how my appointment goes later!!!

APPOINTMENT!
Jason got out of work early so that he could go to the appointment with me! I was pretty stoked! It went well, his heartbeat is high 140's-low 150's. I am measuring perfectly, and I go see my OB on the 27th. Adelyn went to the appointment with us, it was her first time going for the new baby. She heard the heartbeat and she was absolutely amazed! She got up on the Doctor bed with me and hugged and kissed my belly a million times. She was such a good girl. And hearing my little guys heartbeat makes me feel so much closer to him. It makes him seem so much more real. I'm so stoked right now. <3

{May 18th}

Well, I just added a couple new pictures of me with my best friend, Jen. I'm going to get some pictures of my big old belly up on here VERY soon. So definitly go check out my new pictures that I put up! Anyways, today... It was a pretty day for me... my little guy on the other hand, he's going nuts! He won't sit still! I'm loving it! haha! Jason is sick today... :o( My poor baby! I can't wait to go see my OB on the 27th. I love going to appointments, it makes me feel so much involved with my baby, so much closer to him. I just want to hold him. I'm going through my nesting stage WAY early. I'm constantly doing to my townhome. I can't sit still! I have to make EVERYTHING perfect for when he finally gets here... which I know is not so soon. Gosh ladies, I'm going crazy waiting for him. Oh, the temptation to just reach in grab him! Well, time to rearrange more furniture!

{June 3rd}

Hey ladies! I had my doctors appointment last Tuesday and I completely forgot to get on here and tell you all about it. It was my first visit to my OB since my last pregnancy. I was reminded all over again why I am so in love with Dr. Zimmerman! He's such an amazing doctor. One of my friends and my sister-in-law met with him, and my friend actually had him deliver her baby, but neither of them liked him. I don't understand it. They both said that he was very short with them, and wasn't ver personable. I'm wondering if they're talking about the same guy :o), because he is absolutely amazing! When we got there we went over all the questions that we had about the baby... there weren't many... jst a few circumsicion questions. Then we heard the heartbeat... 151-153.. perfet little heart. He felt around my belly, and said that I was measuring PERFECTLY 26 weeks. It was really nice to see him again!

But, since then... I have been feeling great. Seems like I've been doing a lot of running around lately though. Man am I tired! I'm upset because it's so gloomy and windy outside today, so me and Jason and Adelyn won't be able to take our nightly walk. :o( I always look forward to it. On, Another note... Me and Jason have come to a baby name decision I think... We both like Caden a lot. We would call him Cade.... and that just sounds precious to my ears right now. It's just so freakin cute!!!

13 weeks to go. I hope they go quick, because summer is going to be WAY hot... and uncomfortable... and promisingly miserable!! Sigh.... We should all protest 40 week pregnancies... they should be shorter. I'm fa too impatient to wait again!!!!

{August 12}

Hey Everyone! I have a doctors appointment today. I go ever week now. I went last Tuesday and my cervix was VERY mushy and .5cm dialated. I hope I am dialated more when I go in today. I really REALLY need to get this guy out. He hurts me so much! haha. He loves to kick me as hard as he can, and it's painful. Not to mention when I stand up, it feels like he is hanging out! It's insane.
I have gained 30 pounds so far. That's still 20 less than I gained with my daughter. I am so very thankful for that, I was a tank when I was pregnant last time!
So... 37 weeks... It's a beautiful thing to be almost done! I'm huge, and I haven't been able to reach my legs to shave them in about 2 weeks now. Put that on my to do list before I go into labor. :o)
