Not Too Much to report




Well I am 19 weeks and 2 days today. Only 6 more days till we find out if this precious baby #2 will be a boy or girl. I am so excited and can hardly wait. Then that will put me HALF way through this pregnancy. The names aren't coming to us very easily. I know we still have a while so we will concentrate more on this once we know what we are having. I am very proud of myself because I am only up 2 lbs so far from my start weight. WOOHOO!!! That is amazing compared to the @30 I had already gained while preggo with Branden. I am trying hard not to gain too much. Since I didn't lose the Branden baby weight I don't need lots more to add to my plump body.

I don't feel too much movement and haven't been able to get it to move for Wayne yet. He doesn't seem very interested anyways so I guess it's ok. Branden on the other hand loves to try. I pretend by bouncing the belly and he says "it kicked me" or "it got me" silly boy.

Potty training, WOW!! Lots of work. He really doesn't do too bad. Don't get me wrong we still have accidents. He goes most days in the same outfit and underwear he left the house in, but won't tell us when he needs to go. He holds it a lot longer though. So that is good he trained himself to do that. EXCEPT when he has to POOP! OH MY!!! He will go then tell us and there is nothing worse than POOPY UNDERWEAR while being preggo. What a nasty mess. Diapers only at bedtime. Which is saving LOTS of money. Now if he could be fully trained by Dec would be great.

The basement projects. Well they are coming along. We have a mess of papers cause we sold the desk from down there. But toy room walls are finally all sheet rocked. Wayne finished that last night and I painted the one outside wall with primer. Now it is ready to be painted the chalk board wall paint. Branden will love it. He can draw all over it. As long as he doesn't try it upstairs too. :) You never know. Mudding comes next. I've never done it but Wayne says it is no fun. So soon we will start there and then painting next. Then the nursery will be reclaimed.

Saturday I had my Tastefully Simple meeting in KC. So Wayne had heard of this place, Deanna Rose Farm and really wanted to take Branden. So they went and were gonna come back and get me but Branden was worn out and asleep. So I didn't get to go but they had fun. He loved feeding the goats. Wayne said they were very aggressive.

Sunday we did tons of Spring cleaning. moved furniture, dusted.... We organized toys and boxed up some and threw away some. Branden was a big help with this. Then we put a shelf of toys in his room that will stay there and put the changing table dresser back in the soon to be nursery. It is little steps, but every little bit gets us closer to being ready.
Tonight we are headed to the Mexican Fiesta. I hope it will be fun and won't get too hot. AND that Branden listens. He has been having a hard time with that lately. I know he is 2 but he has sure been testing me.
That is a run down of our fast paced boring lives.
