We have a winner?

Adam is the worst person in the world to discuss names with he thinks we have for ever to decide. I want a name now. We are a little different in that regard. I was dreading the trip to see his parents for the holidays. I figured his dad would insist all weekend that we name our child some form of Thomas. I am completely opposed and although this might have been funny the first time he mentioned it way back when I was pregnant with Eve it gets increasingly annoying with each one of their grandchildren that are born. I told Adam that he better be prepared to discuss names on the trip there because I wanted to have a name picked out in case he wouldn't let up. A 2 hour car ride is the perfect way to trap your husband into deciding names. 5 minutes into the trip I started going over our potential name list. 30 minutes later we finally made a decision. Our son has a name for now at least...Milo Finn. I am really good at changing my mind 1000 times so we will see if it sticks. My FIL in true fashion within 10 seconds said so are you going to name him Tommy Lee. Adam snapped back at him. No, not going to happen in a nice firm voice. His dad didn't mention it again. I am so proud of Adam. The rest of the kids bow down to him at all times and just let him go on with his egotistical ways but Adam put his foot down for me knowing I would be a crazy lady all weekend if he continued with his Thomas naming fiasco.

I have changed my mind.

I think since taking my link off of my siggy I have weeded out some of the crazies so therefore I will keep my blog public. It seems only normal people read my blog. For those of you that sent me an e-mail I will keep your e-mail in case I ever change my mind so you will be automatically set up.

Gymboree.

Gymboree and I have this love hate relationship. I love some of the clothes there for Eve and I hate what it does to my pocketbook. Adam made me promise not to buy anything else for Eve for Christmas since I have already spent way to much on her. I seriously can't help it. I went online to look at little boy clothes and found the most adorable train clothes ever. Adam is the worlds biggest train junky. He told me to wait until after Christmas to buy anything for the baby because he wanted to be greedy and spend more money on us. I figured fine they will have them on sale by the time that I am allowed to buy them and then I can buy the whole line. (yes I am that bad for a while I couldn't buy anything for DD because she already had one of everything.) Well as I was looking I was on the phone with my mom who said to lay off the toys for Christmas because my niece is in dire need of winter clothing that fits. Her parents are notorious for not getting her clothes that properly fit. 6 year olds should not be wearing midriff shirts in the middle of winter or ever for that matter. So I switch to the big girl section to look at clothes figuring I won't find anything I really like because it has been pretty unimpressive lately forcing to go to my other favorite clothing line of pumpkin patch. Well I get to the page and find this adorable pair of pants with snowflakes on them. I put together a whole outfit and then decide I need one for Eve too. Now when the girls get their picture taken with Santa they will match. They did last year and it was too cute. Seriously my niece and daughter are like sisters who barely see each other. The call each other sister cousin. It is too cute. So I paid enough to get $75 worth of gymbucks which means I can spend $150 and only have to pay $75 during gymbuck time so I will be able to buy the whole boys line I want. Seriously this was the reasoning I used when I went crazy today and spent way more than I should. So if you want to see the super cute outfit my beautiful niece and Eve will be wearing check out the photos.

The baby boys first gift!

All good.

So we went to the Dr. today and got an internal exam where everything looked good. Then we heard the heartbeat and I was much relieved. The Dr. had us go in for an ultrasound just to make sure that the placenta and fluid was ok. It was fine at first they thought I had a low lying placenta but it turns out I was having a contraction that made the placenta cover the cervix and when the contraction stopped the placenta went back to not covering. As an added bonus we found out we are having a boy. I am so happy he looks healthy. He was being a total bugger and didn't want to show his goods and kept putting his hand there so we couldn't see but then she got 2 good pictures of his boy parts. It was really obvious he was a boy the u/s tech froze the picture and I said "It's a boy!" and she confirmed. I am so excited I get to buy all the argyle I could ever dream of but sad that I won't get to dress another munchkin in all of DDs pretty clothes. We go back in 3 weeks to have another u/s so she can measure the heart and do the rest of the measurements. I am so over the moon happy that our little boy is still safe and I hope he stays that way until at least late April. He was measuring 5 days ahead and I am down 2 pounds from my starting weight even though I honestly have been living off of fast food for 2 weeks. (Bad I know.) Apparently this baby takes after my DHs side and has given me the gift of metabolism.

Bed Rest

Well I have been ordered to be on bed rest until I see the Dr. tomorrow. I have had some more tinged discharge today and am thankful that she wants to see me. I am on strict orders of no walking. Continued prayers would be aappreciated.

Spotting.

I really thought I was in the clear but on Saturday after climbing a ridiculously steep hill while pushing the stroller with Eve in it I went to the restroom and I had a spot. I decided to let it be and took it easy for the rest of the day. Twice I on Saturday I had some tinged discharge and twice today as well. I swear I still feel the baby moving so I am letting it be for tonight because I really have no desire to spend 12 hours waiting to get checked out at the hospital for them to tell me one of 2 things a. there is nothing wrong or b. there is nothing they can do. I am going to call the Dr. tomorrow and see what she says. DH is trying to stay really positive but it has been harder for me. Please pray that everything is ok with our little munchkin.

I think it is time.

I have always been very trusting of those around me but honestly there has been some people that haven't been making me feel so comfortable as of late. I know there are like 1 or 2 people that actually read this so if you still want to you can e-mail me at pokeyswife8803@yahoo.com. My blog is going private on Thanksgiving so please let me know if you would like to still read. I am very open on this blog and it isn't like I want to exclude people but I do need to keep my daughter safe. When you e-mail me if you could just tell me briefly who you are or where I might know you from I would appreciate it.
