No pics this week(for now), just thought I would throw a post in here!
We are all doing well, Tom and Addison are getting over colds. I'm still constantly wiping Addy's nose! Luckily she is pretty good about it and I don't have to tackle her to do it! I do have to tackle her to change her diaper though! I'll be potty training this summer while I am home on maternity leave!
Tom has been working on getting Addison's new room ready, he had started painting last week. With all the rain we had over the weekend, we discovered a leak in our roof, which is leaking into Addy's new room. So...we have to get that checked out and fixed before moving on. Hopefully it doesn't take too long!
I am doing well, just over 34 weeks now. I went to the OB today and everything looks/sounds really good. We're in the home stretch! Tom and I are starting to work on a plan for what we are going to do with Addison when I go into labor. It probably would be easier to schedule another c-section, but I REALLY don't want to do that again if I don't have to. So keep your fingers crossed that I can VBAC!!
We had a ton of rain this weekend, and its amazing how fast everything has greened up! My tulips are starting to bloom and everything else just seems to be popping out of the ground. I love this time of year! :)

Sunday, April 5, 2009
Well, here it is April already! Although it doesn't really feel like it. Its so cold and windy outside, and they are predicting snow this evening. The day is turning out better than I expected though, I think it was supposed to be rainy/sleety/snowy all day long. Instead its just cold and gray! I guess that is spring in the Midwest though! You never know what you'll get right?
So two months have gone past since I blogged last. I'm not quite sure where the time has gone! Addison has grown and so have I! My belly is nice and round now, only 9 more weeks to go! The baby is healthy and so am I. I am anemic this time, just like I was with Addison, and have to take iron supplements. Other than that, the pregnancy is going well. Its a lot tougher this time with an almost two year old running around the house! I can't sit and put my feet up when I get tired! Addison would have the house in shambles if I let her get away with everything!
I am still working my usual schedule, 12 hour days MWF. I think at this point with Addy I was able to switch over to 8 hr days 5 days a week. We can't really do that this time with daycare and all. So I just keep plugging along. I am definitely wiped out by the end of the day, and could probably go right to bed when I get home at 7:30!
Addison is a handful these days. She is very smart and a lot of fun! She talks so much and likes to be independent. It takes us about 30 minutes to get out of the house these days because she doesn't want to put her coat on and wants to put her shoes on herself! It can be very frustrating for Tom and I at times, but she has to learn how to do things for herself!
Addy loves to talk, she points out everything she sees when we go somewhere in the car. She is very good with her colors. Counting is coming along...she likes to skip 5 and 6 when counting to ten! Its amazing how many new words she learns every day and how she remembers things she learned days before! The toddler mind is just a sponge for information!
Addy loves to take care of her babies! She changes their diapers (wipes and all), sings them to sleep, feeds them and takes them for walks around the house! I'm hoping she'll be this willing to help with the new sibling! I think it will be an interesting transition!
I guess that is the (somewhat)short and sweet summary of the last two months. I'm going to try to be better at posting more often again! I picked out a few pics from Feb and March, wish I could post more!
