This is out of order because I forgot to post due to not having any pictures to go with it!!! Oh well!
We had my first doctor's appointment on Monday, September 15th. Ah the fun begins, peeing in a cup and weighing in! I was only 9 weeks along so they don't even try to listen to the heartbeat but they did bring an ultrasound machine in the room and we got to see Little Fetus #2 on film again. Lucas was with us and he was really taken with the ultrasound. It's an older machine so I really thought it looked like a lump in there but Lucas kept saying, "see da baby in da water in mommy's belly?" My doctor said everything looked good and the baby had grown since the last ultrasound. We got to see it's little heartbeat again. I had to be put on some medicine to stop my puking and it works well. I keep trying not to take it thinking maybe I am past that stage but when I don't, I puke, a lot!! I am hoping it will stop soon. With Lucas it went on until I was about 14 weeks but it wasn't this bad.
Lucas likes to talk about the baby in my belly and has recently started pulling my shirt up and saying hi to the baby and giving my belly a kiss. Of course right now, by belly, I mean the one I already had! No baby belly yet, I look forward to that firming up my existing one!! ;-)
Check back for updates! Although she gave us the ultrasound pictures, you can't tell much so I won't post it. We will find out the sex (hopefully), in November!

WAHOO!!! Can't wait to get all the updates and watch your bump get bigger and bigger! And Lucas is so sweet. :)
Thanks for checking in on me. I have def. been MIA! I have a good reason though...actually the same reason you might have...baby #4 (or quatro as we like to call it) is on the way. Isn't God good? I think I'm a little bit ahead of you at 10 1/2 weeks. :) Is that a good message response or what!!! We're very excited but that is mixed with some anxiety about this pregnancy. So far everything is good and NORMAL (thank you Jesus!). We've had 3 ultrasounds and will have another one in 2 weeks at a high risk doctor. Then another look 2 weeks after that, and then the big one about 2 or 3 weeks after that. They are taking good care of me here in Florida! I look forward to having babies so close together! Since this will be my 4th c-section, I'll prob. deliver no earlier than April 10th but no later than the 17th. Thank you so much for checking on me. This has been a roller coaster of emotions for me with finding out our news (a little earlier than we had planned :))and celebrating Olivia's birthday. Happy, sad, happy, sad!!!!!Looking forward to updates on how you're feeling. I'm just green 24/7. I was the same with the other 3 so hopefully this will pass in the next couple weeks. Tell your mom thank you for her sweet comment on my blog. People like that are a big reason that we've been able to keep going after losing Olivia. Enough rambling! Talk to you soon!
