Half Way Baby!!

Today I am half way through this pregnancy. I hear the heavens singing! Or maybe that is just the voices in my head singing praise because of how I feel. The last two weeks have been better. I'm not saying I'm all the way normal, and back to my old self..BUT I feel like I can function at some points during the day. I don't have my head in a toilet all day and all night. I can eat more than just white toast with butter. I even got dressed two times last week! I'm only at the docs once a week now, and I even got my hair done. I know!
It may seem silly to some to make such a big deal of these improvements, but they really feel like answered prayers. We got to stay home all last week, and do normal family things. Jared is still caretaker, but I was able to help out. I never got to feel better with Graham, and I think I will forever say that those nine months were the hardest of my life. I realize this feeling might not last, and probably wont. BUT I am relishing it now, and am so happy to be on the downhill slope!!

Alas, we ARE alive!

A new baby?! This was the day many months ago when we told Graham that he would be getting a new brother or sister. I was about 4 or 5 weeks prego(before my life stopped) and thought he needed a little cupcake for the surprise. This little boy is going to be a great big brother. I feel very blessed to be intrusted with the wonderful responsibility of taking care of 3 boys. This is my first post back, so I better not over due it..more to come, hopefully:)






I love this boy so much!!! I hope he remembers this "happy mama" and not "sick mama on the couch."







The best dad a kid could have:) Could not do ANY of this without this man right here. Thank you Sweet for being so good to us. I promise I'll take care of you the rest of your life:) I'm not even going to try to catch up on all of the things I've missed posting the last few months. Yes, months. If you know me, you know I've been basically dead, barely hanging on. BUT I am determined to get some posts up for our blog book so we can have some memories logged during these 9 months of h!@#, I mean bliss:)
