Updates

Updates on pregnancy
I decided that I need to blog about something because my last post was from when I was pregnant in the first trimester and I was a little sour towards it back then. I am nearly 18 weeks along this Sunday and should be finding out the sex of the baby within a week, or two hopefully. I am feeling much better and happier towards my pregnancy now and have a lot more energy, so I try not to gripe about things as much. I am starting to show a little bit, but my stomach looks more like I have a pooch and not a pregnancy belly yet..... It still does not feel quite real to me that another baby is coming yet, but I think it will once I get a little bigger and I start to feel the baby. =) I don't have any pictures, but I will post some later when I get big which will not be long, because I usually pop out in the 5th month.

Update o Audrey
She is doing really good and is learning and growing more and more each day. Just recently Audrey discovered her shadow and in the mornings she will go and jump on our bed when the light is out and the curtains are still closed and play with her shadow. Usually there is just a little bit of light flowing in, so that makes it perfect for her. She will jump and giggle and touch her shadow on the wall and it is the sweetest, funniest thing. Just the other day she went up to her shadow and said "Hi shadow, It's Audrey! ha ha just to cute. Other things that Audrey has learned out to do so well lately is pedaling on her little tricycle, but she has been doing really well with that since January. She is starting to tell Sean and I when she is ready for bed and she goes down without a fuss, but she has to have a gazillion toys with her..
We are getting ready to put her in a toddler bed, but I am a little nervous for how that will work out. Because she will be free to get out of bed whenever she wants, but she seems ready to move to a big girl bed. Any advice please give, because I don't think this is going to be an easy transition. I think she will like a big girl bed, but I' m wondering if it will be hard to keep her in the new bed at night.
Update on Sean
Sean is doing good these days and seems like he is ready for the semester to end. I think he gets kind of burnt out from all the pointless paperwork his professor's assign him, because he does not feel like he is learning much of anything from it. It will be better when he is in his Master's program and he can have more of a focus point towards what he is going to become in the future. Right now Sean is keeping his eyes open for different job opportunities in the nursing field and we are hoping he gets a job he applied to a week in a half ago. Because it would be really nice because it is salary based, no nights, no weekends, or holidays. We will just keep our fingers crossed and hopefully he will get it. =) He really is such a good husband/Dad and takes such good care of Audrey and I. He is always there to help me when he is at home and does not complain when I ask him for help with something. He helps me clean quite often and does chores, like the laundry, dishes, garbage duty and other things. I can't complain about that at all, but I do appreciate it so much!! Thanks babe! You are such a good husband and Dad. Oh one thing I forgot to mention about Audrey and her Daddy is she is becoming more of a daddy's girl lately, it is really sweet. She loves her daddy so much and asks for him repeatably when he leaves for work, or school and loves hanging out with him when he is home.
Anyways, I guess that almost wraps up everything I have to say. If you are still reading this far and I have not bored you, then I just want to say thanks for reading our blog.

That so exciting, I cant wait till you find out what you are having. What do you guys think it is? Audrey is such a cutie, she is getting so big and sounds like she is learning lots. ANd I feel the same way about this semester I cant believe its almost over, I want it to be over but at the same time I which I had a little more time in clinic to get all of my requirements. Good luck with the job, hopefully it works out.

It's always nice to hear updates :). I'm glad your pregnancy is going well. You'll have to let us know what you're having when you find out! I have a doctors apt a week from today and am hoping to find out what I'm having but I will only be 14 1/2 weeks along so we'll see. Audrey is so cute. Kids are just so much fun aren't they! Sean sounds like such a good husband and Dad. We are so lucky to have such wonderful husbands!

Congrats again on the new baby, and hopefully he does get the job! That sounds nice! And I completely understand about school! Wish him luck for the last month!

So fun reading about you guys! As for the toddler bed suggestions and keeping her in bed at night (if you still need suggestions that is) we had about two months of no problems and then McKayla started to get up 2 or 3 times each night. So we just started closing her door at night and that works. She sleeps great and I just open her door when I hear her in the morning. If you have any other ideas, I'd love to hear them since she is the only one I have experience with! :D
