Like I said, I have been trying to catch up on posting lately. I just found the pictures from when I went home for Christmas for a week and spent the first evening hanging out with my girls at Jill's house. We missed the ones that were not able to make it, but we had a great time. Jill took all of these pictures so that's why she's not in any of them. Thanks Jill.
Look at those bellies!! Lee is looking great and I am just huge...and she is 2 weeks ahead of me!

Connor's 4th Birthday (October 29th, 2008)
Yes, this is also late. I went home for Connor's 4th birthday party back in October. He had such a good time and had a great turnout. It was at Lawton Park and he had a firetruck cake. My cousin Brandy came (who is the preggo girl in the pics) with her little boy who just turned 1!! And her second baby is due around mid to end February!!
Catching up...Furbaby Birthdays
I am a little behind on some things. My "twins", Chloe and Sampson, turned 1 on November 5th and they got the usual of organic chocolate cupcakes and goat milk which is their favorite. Then Brutus turned 2 the other day on January 14th. My middle child, George, will be 2 on February 9th and I will update then.

Miss Finley Update
Yes, I am still here and I haven't gone anywhere. I promise I will get better at updating my blog in the New Year!!
I went to the doctor on Friday, January 9th. It was just a regular appointment where they check the weight, blood pressure, etc. This was the first appointment that Adam has not been able to attend. I was a little sad, but I was okay.
Anyhow, my blood pressure was fine and I am up 21 pounds!! I feel more like 121 pounds, but they say 21, so I guess I believe them. Finley's heartbeat was 146 and she started moving like crazy after the nurse put the doppler on my belly. I think she was trying to kick it off! And I definitely have a "baby bump" as everyone is calling it. It is more than a "bump" to me, it's the whole stomach. My heartburn is all day long and I think it's so bad it has "eroded my esophagus" as the commercials say. I lose my voice at times and I have an irritated throat that makes me have these horrendous coughing spells that make me pee my pants!!! It's so great when that happens. Another new symptom is swelling in my ankles and feet. The left foot is more than the right. It is very minor swelling, but I think it looks awful(because my ankles look like a muffin top on top of my shoes) and makes me feel even less attractive. I read an Old Wives Tale that says that baby boys give their mothers glow and beauty and that baby girls take their mother's beauty. I completely believe that!!!
I have been feeling Miss Finley move since about 17 weeks. And then at about 19 weeks, she was moving around all day long. I think that is the sweetest feeling ever. Sometimes she is moving around so much, it makes me giggle. I love it!! She likes when I am on my left side the best and she is up more at night and in the early morning and likes to sleep during the day. Boy, I hope this changes. I talk to her during the day so she will wake up and rarely she does. Then when she is awake at night, I try to tell her to go to sleep, but she doesn't listen. She's already got a mind of her own and is hard-headed, just like her mommy!! I am in for a long road ahead of this keeps going!
I go back to the doctor on February 2nd for a regular appointment and my blood sugar test. YUCK!!! I am not looking forward to this. I have an extreme gag reflex and just hope I can drink this stuff and not throw up everywhere.
