He's Got Spunk!

This little man is really coming out of his shell.  Not that Liam has ever been shy, but he is truly showing his character--trust me, there's a lot of spunk & personality in this little body! Kevin and I are really enjoying this time, Liam is changing and becoming more active everyday.

Making it through an entire story (unheard of a few months ago)

Playing independently (who knew feet could be so entertaining?)

My dogs really interest me now (Bruiser is my favorite)

Porky scares me a bit (can ya tell?).   
Excuse the end of this video, Porky got the camera strap stuck on his foot & kicked the camera across the room!

I even try to take Bruiser's toys away now

Haha Mom, did ya see that?!

Is it me?

This past weekend I put up my first Christmas tree and stocking (with mom and dad's help of course).  They snapped photos of that, but those photos are on the other camera and I still nap on mommy--I know, I know, we're not supposed to and I usually can sleep on my own, but mama likes to cuddle and I get a longer and less interrupted nap.  Anyways, so mommy cannot get up right now to get those photos off the other camera, so those photos will follow tomorrow. My naps are becoming consistent at an hour, three times a day.  

Speaking of sleep, for the past two weeks or so I have slept through the night w/ the exception of a couple of nights (not my fault--there was an awfully loud storm one night, I was having teething pain another night, filled my diaper with poopy another night, etc). When I do wake early I am usually easy to put back to sleep (and I NEVER nurse after my 8pm feeding).  I have been consistently sleeping 10-12 hrs a  night (mommy and daddy feel safe saying that now--hopefully I don't change because mama put it into writing, lol).  I go to bed around 8pm and wake between 6am (rare) 7am (more common) or 8am (occasionally).  

I am really changing and growing up.  Mommy and Daddy are having so much fun with me.  What a beautiful life!  Check back tomorrow for my Christmas tree photos, you won't regret it!

Therapy...

Not being silent about our loss is looking to be the best therapy for me during this difficult time. Through Facebook I've had countless friends reach out to me and share their stories of loss. Although it doesn't make me feel better, as we're talking about too many babies in heaven, it does make me feel less alone. So I was diagnosed w/ blighted ovum. Meaning the gestational sac and placenta was growing inside of me (the ultrasound showed it was indeed around 7 weeks along) but the baby stopped developing and was reabsorbed into my uterus. Problem is, the placenta is responsible for pregnancy symptoms, so my body still thinks it is pregnant, but there is no longer a baby or embryo. So, until I actually miscarry the tissue, I will feel pregnant. I don't know how to explain how I've been feeling the past few weeks. At first I thought it was just my uneasy feelings of this pregnancy being "unplanned" and so close to my previous pregnancy. It took me a wh...

25 Weeks & Doctor's Appt.

We hit the 25 week mark today!  Hard to believe!  Time is flying so fast... We had our doctor's appointment today (Kevin is out of town Thursday, so we moved it up).  I weighed in at a whopping 109.8!  My nurse and my doctor's response was they are so so proud of me (I felt so special!  Who would have thought GAINING weight would be so exciting?!).  Kevin's response "WHOA!"  And my response to his "WATCH IT Buddy!"  Ha!  So that's almost 14lbs of weight gain!  I really am quite proud of myself... never thought I could do it (although, I spend most of my time eating these days, so it makes sense). The nurse said I "look cute, am starting to show and have that pregnancy waddle."  Considering I did not feel like I was waddling (sometimes I have to because my tailbone hurts so bad) I was not exactly thrilled about this comment, lol!  I asked Kevin if there is something he is forgetting to tell me... ha! The doctor measured my...
