18 week Dr Appointment and the Best husband ever

I had my 18 week appointment yesterday
and I have my 20 week Ultrasound next week
(I'll be almost 20 weeks by then)

Everything looked good and good news,
my heartburn has lessened quite a bit within the last month!!
It was pretty bad,
but now it's pretty bearable.

Kali was hiding from the Dr when he tried to find her heartbeat.
It took a bit to find it and I'm not gonna lie,
I panicked just a bit when that happened.

But that's pretty normal. Especially for me.
I seriously worry about EVERYTHING.
It really is such a miracle that my little girl is growing in my belly...
it doesn't feel possible so I constantly worry that something is going to happen to her!
(It's apparant that it doesn't get better with each pregnancy. haha)

So,
things went well with that.

Then,
when I got home, I began feeling incredibely sick.
My little brother just tested positive for strep throat...
so I'm thinking it could be that.

I have a sore throat and everything,
but I also have a headache,
nausea
and extreme congestion.

I'm sure the Nausea is pregnancy related,
and I've had headaches before,
 but NOT like this!!

Anyway,
the point is I was feeling sick
(and it's only gotten worse today)

I got home around 4:30,
and Tyson got home at about 5:30.

When he got home,
he seriously waited on me more than ever.
Not only had he been working hard at work all day,
but then he comes home,

makes me a grilled cheese sandwich and soup
tickles my back,
gives my Tylenol,
prepares a bath for me
and makes sure I have everything I need.

Then,
when I remember that I made plans with Keara to play games with her and some other friends,
he drops what he's doing to relax,
and says we should go.

So,
he tells me I look beautiful,
(When I have wet hair flailing everywhere, no make up on and I'm in ugly pj's
It's obvious that's not the case! haha)
He tells me not to change,
and we go play games until we decide we need to go home to go to bed so we won't be tired for work.

THAT was only yesterday.

Today,
he worked way late,
in the freezing cold, on the roof of a store, in a blizzard.

He calls me when he's driving home and knows i'm sick so he picks up some dinner,
brings it to me in bed
and
makes sure I have everything.
Just like he did yesterday.

I absolutely LOVE him.
I definitely don't deserve someone so incredible.

He's gonna be an incredible Dad.
I love you Tyson!

I'll post another pregnancy picture next time :)

Just in time

I'm back!

Turns out,
the WiFi on my computer decided to break.

Fixing it was cheaper than we thought though.
It just took a bit to figure that out!

and we did.
Just in time for Christmas :)

Not much has been going on with the pregnancy.
Everything it pretty much the same.
Our next Dr Appointment is next week.

For now,
we are going to enjoy the Holidays this weekend!
I'll update more afterwards.
Merry Christmas!

Broken

So my goal has been to get better at blogging.
I've been HORRIBLE at posting since I got married.

Unfortunately,
my computer decided it didn't want to connect to the internet as of two days ago.

SO,
I am going to have to postpone blogging at least two or three times a week even MORE 
until we miraculously figure out how get a new computer. 

as a word of advice,
don't EVER get HP,
or even more don't ever get a Windows Vista.

THEY ARE HORRIBLE!!!
I called them yesterday to see if they could help me figure out the problem.
They said in order to help,
they were going to charge me $170.

That's customer service!?!? 
SHEESH!! 

haha. So yeah.
Enjoy the Holidays everyone! 
Hope I can update sooner than later!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
This will be our only Christmas with just the two of us in the family :)

It's a...


15 weeks.
I really don't look forward to what I'm going to look like at 40 weeks!!

SOO,
We found out what we are having today!

According to the poll on this blog,
the # of votes for a boy won with flying colors!


72% voted BOY!
and
27% voted GIRL!


I myself predicted boy as well.

We got to Fetal Foto's a 6:30
and when they brought us into the room,
I felt like I was going to throw up.

I was SO nervous and SO excited all at once.
Tyson and I had gone out to get Mexican food right before.
I hoped that eating spicy food would make sure the baby wasn't shy enough to hide their Gender!

haha.
Not sure if that was the reason or not,
but once she put the Ultrasound recorder on my Belly,
the first thing the baby showed us was its cute little booty.

Something about seeing our baby for the first time,
on the screen,
caused me to want to cry of amazement.

The Ultrasound tech moved the camera around just a bit and there it was.
The result of our babys Gender.

We are having a.....

GIRL!!!!!!

When this result was made known to me,
I immediately started bawling.
I couldn't BELIEVE IT!
I still am having a hard time coming to terms with it.

We are having a girl!!
I was SO convinced that it was a boy.

She was up on that screen posing for a few minutes,
but kept turning her body so we could only see the back of her.
She started getting a little shy :)

We already had her name picked out.
Our little girl is going to be

Kalista Jean.
We'll call her Kali for short.

So,
 Kali Jean

I can't even begin to express my excitement.
Tyson can't stop smiling and we are just the happiest people on the planet right now.

After seeing our sweet baby,
we are actually realizing that we are
HAVING A BABY!!
I'm already so in love with her and can't wait to cuddle her!

When the time is right...

I have a really good friend.
We met through blogging.
I feel like we've become pretty good friends
especially since we both got married about a month apart.

I'm sure most of you know her or at least her blog.
I've mentioned it before.

Yesterday she made a post that really affected me.
Please read it before continuing to read this.

I can honestly say I never experienced this desire so strongly.
Granted,
after Avery was born,
I couldn't wait for the day that I could get married and have Children.

But I think after I got my job at the hospital,
that feeling was greatly 'watered down'.
It was still there, just not as strongly.

I think mostly because when I felt like I wanted a baby,
I would just go cuddle one of the babies in the nursery and get my fix for the day.
(I hope that doesn't sound wrong or offensive. I don't know how to explain it any other way. I pretty much just needed to at least cuddle a tiny body in my arms, feed them or change their diaper. After that the intense urge/pain simmered) 

This wasn't because I remembered how hard it would be, but because I was able to do just a small amount of what a mother does. Which is what I so badly wanted/want to be.

So,
I did feel this pain to a degree, but I never experienced being married and wanting a baby SO BADLY, but knowing it wasn't the right time.

I haven't told very many people what I'm about to say.
I have told very very few,
but after Stefanie's post, I've decided that I want to share it.

This is why I KNOW that even though it has happened very quickly,
I know that this baby is supposed to come right now.
I KNOW that this pregnancy was no "accident".

A couple of weeks after getting married,
Tyson and I went to the temple.

We went because we wanted to specifically pray about a concern of ours.
We weren't sure what to do as far as housing and most importantly,
his job. I'll leave it at that. It was just something we were stressing about immensely.

While sitting in Celestial room,
we both started praying, pondering and asking about this issue we had.

About five minutes later,
I just couldn't figure out why, no matter what,
I could only think about one thing.

Starting a family.

I thought that maybe, it was just because it's me
(and everyone knows how I feel about wanting to be a mother.)

SO,
I leaned over to Tyson and whispered
"What do you think?"

After sitting there for a few seconds,
her turned to me and whispered
"I don't think we should wait until we're 'ready' to have kids."

keep in mind,
that this was the FARTHEST thing from our minds when we entered the Temple.

I was suprised by his answer because it was EXACTLY what was going through my mind.

On the drive home,
our conversation consisted of one thing
Starting a family.

My concern kept turning to what other people would think.
Yes, I know. That shouldn't matter.
But I worried that we would be seen as irresponsible,
or that people would think I talked Tyson into it because I wanted to "replace" Avery.

It sounds ridiculous,
but sure enough, some have already said this to me.

When I would say this to Tyson, he would say what is so obvious
"who cares?"

He was right.
It's our decision. WE are the only two people that can receive an answer for our family.

When we were almost home,
we decided that yes,
we shouldn't stress so much about birth control or anything.

Two weeks later,
I found out I was pregnant.

I STRONGLY believe that the Lord was preparing us for this moment.
He was telling us that our family needed to start.
This child needs to come now.

I know that because of that experience in the Temple,
I was prepared to see the positive pregnancy test.

That experience helped me to know that we will be able to provide for this baby now.
It helped calm my nerves.

That doesn't mean that I never stress, it just means that I know the Lord will provide a way for us to have what we need to raise this baby.

So,
Stefanie,
although I know that you're aching so immensely to have a baby,
just know that the Lord will tell you when the time is right.

and when the time finally IS,
you will be so happy you waited until you were an eternal family.
I just know it.
and I cannot wait for that day to come for you.

14 Weeks

I'm hoping it's just my computer because it has a wide screen...but I AM aware that my belly looks way to big for only being 14 weeks.
or maybe it's the shirt.

I'll keep making excuses to feel better.
haha


I had my Dr Appointment today.
I gained 1 pound!!
(haha yeah I was suprised it was only that much as well)

My feeling that this baby is incredibly active
was most likely presumed correct.

When the Dr was getting ready to listen to the heartbeat,
I told him that I've already been feeling the baby kick.
Just little flutters every now and then.

The Dr seemed suprised,
and I could tell he was thinking "that's just gas"
(ha)

But after setting the doppler on my belly,
the baby started kicking the thing like crazy.
I think he believed me after that.

Since I work there,
I listen to the heartbeat when I'm working.
and the last few times I've tried to hear it,
the baby would kick the doppler and move.

So I wouldn't be able to listen to it for very long cause the baby would move out of the way.

I've decided,
whatever the gender
(even though I'm pretty set on what I think it's going ot be)
This baby is going to have Tysons characteristics as far as energy goes.
If any of you know him,
you'd know exactly what I'm talking about!!


Anyway,
Things are going well.
I love seeing Tysons face when he hears the heartbeat.

8 more days until we find out...

BLUE OR PINK!?!

Baby Update

I received a question on Formspring asking me why I don't update about my pregnancy on my blog.

I wasn't going to for several reasons,
but after a lot of thought,
I've decided that this is my blog.
It's like my journal.

I know I will want to tell my baby about the experience.
So I'm going to start doing so.

and I have a bit to catch up on!!

I know it's still November,
but as of now, I don't have any other "Hoping to Adopt" requests so I figured I should probably start keeping this pregnancy up to date! :)

Since a couple of days before finding out I was pregnant,
I've been sick.

It's gotten worse as time goes on which is completely normal.
I'm told that being REALLY sick like this, means the baby is healthy!
So that's helping me a bit. 

It wasn't like this with Avery.
Granted I was sick, but nothing like this.

I have been so sick, that I've lost weight.
I lost 5 pounds at my 10 week appointment.
The Dr. Said that if I lose anymore, he's going to put me on an IV.

I would really prefer to NOT be on an IV, so I've been desperately trying to gain weight
(first time in my life I've had to do that! ha)
Not sure if it's working.
I throw up a lot.

I threw up blood a couple of days ago
because my Esophagus is SOOO raw.

I just started taking medicine for that so I'm hoping that gets better.

We find out on December 10th what the baby is!

As you may or may not have noticed,
There is a poll on the right side of my blog.

VOTE!
I want to see what the results are.
The poll ends the day we find out.

We're so excited!!

I'm now 13 weeks and counting.
I've already starting feeling the baby kick.

Just little flutters every once in a while.
I can't WAIT until it's hard enough to nudge the skin!!
I can't wait until Tyson can feel it!

My next Dr appointment is December 2nd,
so pray that I have at least not LOST more weight!!

2??

Little Avery Leigh is 2 years old today.
(this is probably one of my most scatterbrained posts yet...bear with me. It's exactly how I feel today!)

I've been thinking about what to do for a post all day long,
but couldn't think of anything.

It's hard to explain how I feel about it this year!


Avery two years ago..


Avery Now...
wow.


I had work today.

Since I work at the hospital she was born in,
all I could think about was the events leading to her birth.

It doesn't seem like all of that was two years ago.  at all.

This year is also a lot different than last year.
Last year was a lot more difficult.
It was hard for many reasons. I cried of not only remembering her birth,
but also of saddness.  I missed her. It was hard.

But this year,
the emotions are different.
I've never once even been sad because I miss her, or because I'm not her mother,
I've only shed tears when thinking about her birth.

It was such an incredibely spiritual time for me.
The Spirit comes back so strongly whenever I think about it.
and this year,
I'm pregnant again.

Tyson and I are Celebrating with her and her family tonight.
words don't describe how grateful I am to Dustin and Andrea for allowing me this.
It's been such an incredible blessing to watch her grow up,
and I don't think I would feel as peaceful and confident about all of this if it wasn't for them allowing me this open adoption. I love them!

I decided that for her 2nd birthday post,
I'm going to post this when she is EXACTLY two years old.

By the minute.
She was born at 5:17.
1717 in military time.

(WHICH,
by the way,
the numbers 7 and 17 have been my lucky numbers since I was 13 years old.

Avery was born at 1717 and our hospital bands,
which had to have matching numbers,
were 7777. :))

Avery is a miracle.
She saved my life.
She's a blessing to so many.
I love her so much.

HAPPY 2ND BIRTHDAY SWEET ANGEL!!
I love you!!

Being a grown up

So I guess,
Since I'm [supposed to be] a grown up now,

I have apparantly,
subconsciously of course,
placed blogging in the 'non-grown up' category.

I'm totally SLACKING in this area.
I love blogging,
but sometimes,
it's a huge pain!!

One reason,
because whenever I read someone else's blog I think to myself,
"how do they make their blog so cute? I want that."
and then I become discouraged.

haha, but lusting is bad.
So I will work on that :S

Here is an update on married life:

We are still trying to qualify for a house we found.
It's taking a while because,
since Tyson pretty much changed his entire identity,
he has absolutely no credit.

Which means,
we have to find a lender that is willing to just go off of my credit.
Which is kinda difficult if you've ever bought a house before.

BUT,
since we could no longer tolerate the HORRIBLE management at farmgate/timbergate apartments in Herriman Utah (i'm telling you the name of the apartment complex as a warning. do NOT consider living there. They are horrible),
hahaha..but seriously.

My wonderful parents,
have agreed to let us stay in the mother-in-law apartment in their basement until we can qualify for that house/find another apartment if we cannot qualify.

So,
this weekend we moved in.
We're hoping to get in to a house quickly, but you never know!
Which is another reason we moved in with my parents instead of getting another apartment.
We don't know how long it will take and we don't want to sign any contracts.

We also got our pictures back from our wedding.
If you're friends with me on facebook,
they're all there.

If not,
I posted a few here.






LOVE this picture. He is one years old and going to be an uncle just a month after turning two!!





Need a flower lady? Mine was completely AMAZING!

My beautiful Flower Girl




LOVEDDD our cake!!! I've got her number too!


Yes we did jump in the pool!!


 Sorry such a short random post!
I have to work tomorrow and it's late :)

October.



This time of month brings back so many memories and emotions.

Everytime I go outside,
I am reminded of two years ago...

When Avery was almost born.

I am overcome with such a peaceful, quiet, sacred feeling everytime I feel the cool air hit my face.
I want to cry when I smell the crisp fall weather settling in.

The way I felt at this time two years ago,
is unexplainable. 

I will not ever be able to find the right words for it.

The Spirit was with me so strongly.
The things that happened during the month of October two years ago were the most sacred, spiritual, hardest things in my life.

It proved to me how strong I can be when I have to be.
It proved to me how much the Lord loves me.
It proved to me that with the Lords help, I can honestly do anything.

When the weather starts to change from summer to fall,
I feel it almost immediately.
The peaceful feeling I had with me during October of 2008,
 is brought back whenever I walk outside and I just want to sit outside, close my eyes and remember it all. 

Last year,
this feeling was hard for me.
Even though it was a peaceful feeling,
all I could think about was what a difficult time it was.
My heart still ached tremendously.

Now,
it's a different feeling.

I want to, and sometimes do, cry when I feel the cool fall air on my face, 
but it's not of pain.

It's of peace.
It's of amazement.
It's of LOVE.
COMPLETE UNCONDITIONAL LOVE.

This year,
I am pregnant again.

BUT,

Instead of the end of my pregnancy this month,
I'm at the beginning,

and

Instead of carrying someone else's child,
I am carrying MINE.

MY CHILD.

Although I believe that hormones have a lot to do with crying so easily this month,
I don't think it's JUST hormones.
This month will always be the most life changing month of my life.

October is always a month I look at with such peace.
My best friend passed away this month,
and I placed the one person I loved more than anything,
with another family.

It's something I will always always remember this way.
whenever the weather changes to fall,
I don't think I will ever look at again as I did before 2008.

Sick Night

Last night at about one in the morning,
I woke myself up because I was crying in my sleep.

As I sat up to recognize my surroundings,
a wave of nausea came over me and I quickly laid back down.

Tyson was up, sitting next to me in a split second.
He asked me if I was okay.
I could hardly speak because I knew that if I did, I would throw up.

After taking a couple of minutes to breath,
I told him that I was feeling really sick.

"What can I get you?"
He asked me in the sweetest voice ever.

I just looked at him again, trying to catch my breath again...
and explained that I had heartburn.

He was up in a second
and came back almost immediately with Ginger ale and tums.

After taking a few sips of the ginger ale and popping a couple tums in my mouth,
the nausea began to subside.
While I laid down trying to fall back asleep, trying to ignore the want to puke,
Tyson laid down besided me,
and tickled my back until I fell asleep.

This wasn't the first time I've been sick.
I was sick before I even found out I was pregnant.
But it was probably the worst it's been.

I'm not complaining.
In fact,
I'm SO GRATEFUL.

Being sick is proving to me that I'm pregnant.
if I wasn't sick,
I think I'd be worried.

I'm SO GRATEFUL for this experience
and
I'm SO GRATEFUL for my husband.

I have an incredible husband.
Someone that is there for me when I need him.

When I was carrying Avery,
I didn't have someone to tickle my back as I tried to fall asleep after waking up sick.
I didn't have someone there for me to grab me tums, or something to help my nausea.

I did have Dustin and Andrea.
They were there for me as much as they could be,
and were SOO AMAZING with helping me with anything they could during the pregnancy.

but having a husband,
that can be there when I need something in the middle of the night,
That can help me when I'm sick,
that's how it should be.

I'm so so grateful for him.
I'm so grateful for this child.
I'm so grateful to the Lord for giving me them both.

I'm so grateful for Adoption.
For it tought me to be grateful.
I know for a fact that if I didn't experience Adoption,
I wouldn't appreciate these experiences,
the small things,
and being sick...

Like I should.

I blame Nuva Ring!! :)

This post is officially life changing.
This post may also be a little TMI for some,
but I have to include it all so that it's understandable.

So,
let's go back to about June of this year.

I had been to my Doctor appointment and we had decided on the Nuva Ring for birth control,
and
I started it just a couple of weeks later.

At the beginning of August,
I took it out for my period,
and
a week later,
I replaced it with another one.

That week I began spotting.
That spotting turned in to bleeding.
That bleeding turned into..bleeding harder than even a normal period.

So,
I began freaking out and called the Doctor on Call.

He told me to take out the nuva ring and he would call in something to stop the bleeding.

Well,
I went to take out the Nuva ring...and it wasn't there.

SO,
I called the Doctor back and he told me to make an appointment with my doctor as soon as I could.

When I went to the Doctor,
he told me that it probably fell out with the bleeding.

HOW WOULD I NOT NOTICE THAT!?!?

Anyway,
at this point,
it's a week before the wedding...
I discussed my options with the Doctor and he said that because it was so close, nothing would be very effective.

SO,
we decided that we would just use Condoms until I started my period again.
THEN,
I would try the Nuva Ring again.

SO,
for the first month of our marriage,
we were going to use Condoms.

YEAH RIGHT!!
a whole month?
who were we kidding?
haha.

So,
we pretty much decided to risk it for a month.

Well,
Yesterday morning,
before I went to work,
I took a pregnancy test.

Here was the result:


My reaction was not how I expected it to be.
I started smiling and I couldn't stop!
(I was expecting more of a HOLY CRAP THAT WAS FAST reaction ;))

It was 5:30 in the morning,
but I didn't care.
I ran in to Tyson and and woke him up and made him see it for himself.

After that,
I couldn't stay with him.
I had to go to work!!

The whole day at work was crazy!
I couldn't concentrate and all I could think of was how we were going to tell our parents!


After much help from my co-workers,
we decided to give them a bouquet of flowers, with a card with baby footprints on them,
saying congratulations Grandma and Grandpa!
and then the pregnancy test.

It worked out pretty well!!

We recorded it,
but for some reason, my computer won't accept the memory card it's on.
Hopefully I'll figure it out eventually.

So,
The point of the story,

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A BABY!!!!
Can you believe it??
We hardly can!!

According to the 'due date finder' or whatever it's called,
(I got it as a gift when I was pregnant with Avery,)
We are due May 30th!

I honestly don't think it's hit me yet.
We found out we were pregnant on our one month anniversary....!!!
