Aquarium

The Aquarium was a blast, and Ty loved it. We are lucky we had the whole family there to watch over the kid as he took off at times and couldn't wait to get to the next display. I think his fav was the eels that hide under the sand and poke their heads out, we couldn't peel the kid away from that display. I think he thought they were playing hide and seek or something, it was so cute. He just kept pointing at them popping their heads up and blubbering. Other little kids would walk up and he would just give them dirty looks like "what are you doing, this is MY display, back off" Finally Ricky coaxed him away while I shot some video. It was great.

I must admit, Ricky and I were pretty pissed they didn't have a shark display!

Kids make life so much more fun!!

Well this week has definitely been a doosie. I am feeling 100% pregnant finally, morning sickness (or I like to call it never ending sickness) and all. On top of that I am so tired I found myself falling asleep in a meeting the other day, talk about embarrassing. I get at least 8 hours of sleep a night, and it isn't even close to enough. Then as soon as I wake up I feel like all I want to do is tear my stomach out because I just feel dizzy and like every smell will send me to the bathroom. I am also hungrier then ever before in my life. My mom tells me it was the same way with me last time. I guess it's true that you forget quickly about all the symptoms. All I can say, is I can't wait for week 12-14, because I don't know how much more of this I can take and still function. The only thing keeping me in good spirits is knowing I will have my second beautiful bouncing baby in 231 days (according to babycenter.com)!!

Ricky is doing well, but has sympathy pregnancy written all over him. If I wake up and feel sick, the poor man feels sick. Poor Ricky, though I do admit it is nice not to be alone. He has been really great these initial weeks. He knows I am tired, and doesn't give me crap for sleeping my life away, and asks me every time he talks to me how I am feeling. I feel so loved right now, and it feels really good. I can't get enough of this family right now.

Ty now is a whole other story. That boy is non-stop and is really starting to assert his independence. He runs everywhere he goes, and god knows Ricky and I keep looking for his off switch. He is so damn cute though, so even when he drives us up the wall we can't help but laugh at his wonderful personality. We are heading to the aquarium for the first time this Saturday. CAN'T WAIT!! Kristen sent me some small pics from Halloween, I added them to the post.

Loves!!

Welcome

In this world of blogs, we figured it was about time we caught up with the trends. As you all very well know our family consists of two wonderful men, one wonderful woman ;0), and two wonderful dogs. We are soon to be expecting another addition, and let's just be honest, we need more women in this household (though Ricky may disagree).

We plan to use this blog to keep you up to date on the family, the pregnancy, and all those daily things that we can't keep everyone up to date on since we all know I am horrible at calling and passing on news. (That is why I have a wonderful mother!)

Lately things have truly been amazing. Ricky is doing great, ready for a much needed break around the holidays, but work is going really well, the bronco has taken him out more then ever before, and he all around just seems really happy. Another upside is this pregnancy is much easier for him to deal with since he now knows what to expect. He's been awesome at waking up with Ty to let me sleep, taking care of me when needed, and dealing with the MASSIVE amounts of mood swings that have been delivered his way.

Ty is doing really great too. I can't believe how fast he is going. Last night I was in the kitchen cooking while Ricky traveled home from his latest Bronco trip, and Ty was all over me needing attention. I stopped cooking and as calming as I could, asked the little man to go clean up his toys that were thrown all over the living room. Too my amazement he ran right into the living room, started singing the clean up song, and started picking up his toys. The kid is so damn cute I could cry every time he reaches a new milestone. I'll attach some pics of Halloween as soon as I grab them from Kristen (my camera is dead).

The girls are doing well. They need a lot more love and attention then they have been getting lately, but they coup, and Ricky always does his best to spend time with them every day. Lady is definitely starting to show her age, but that doesn't mean she has slowed down a bit. We all know Ricky won't let that happen.

I am doing good as well. Not feeling to many signs of pregnancy, other then my all around bitchiness. I have been completely sensitive and annoying lately, but I have a sound family that deals with it as well as can be expected. I only hope it passes soon, as I hate being this way. I won't beat myself up for it to much, as if I ever get a free pass on bitchiness, now is that time.

Well... that's it for now. It's that start of the blog, so a long one. Don't expect as much from me in the future ;0).

Love you all, and thanks for reading!
