Pumpkin Patchin' 2012

Trying to get in a couple of last "hoorahs" of mommy/Liam time before Miss Lorelei makes her appearance in 6-10 weeks! I'm going to start taking it easy here in a few weeks in hopes of cooking her until daddy comes home... so, Liam and mommy are trying to fit in some fun! And fun was had at the pumpkin patch!
*Please excuse the photos! It was ALL I could do to manage my toddler, my camera, my iPhone & my big belly!*

He posed immediately for me & wanted to sit on pumpkins for photos "I sit on pum kin mama!"

And then the train came around the bend tootin' and Liam was after it! His outfit fit in here (he is sooo proud of his pumpkin shirt, but REFUSED to wear it. He said "I wear ductor (conductor) shirt & ductor hat Mama!"

He slept on the way to the patch, so I think he's still sort of out of it!

Kid only ride. I was nervous, I told him to stay on his bottom or he could get a boo boo. Here was his reaction.

Such an animal lover, like mama!

Digging!

He was all about mama tuggin' him along in this wagon!

Posing in the patch!

Relaxed honey?

Picking his pumpkins

He saw the tractor and said "I ride tractor mama!"

Mama & Liam on the tractor ride

He held my hand... I was LOVING it!

LOVED the "horseys"

Had to have an ice cream after the ride!

Showing off the pumpkins he chose "daddy pumpkin & his baby!"

Couple last shots!

He was VERY proud of himself!

And what kind of mama would I be if I didn't bribe my son to eat his lunch with a promise for yogurt after?
(My craving more so than his... Shhh! don't tell!).

Love this lil' ham!

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...
