~Week 16~

So today we went to our doctor appointment, oh yeah and waited another hour. Why do doctors pack so many appointments into one day when they struggle to get to everyone and only spend five minutes with each client. I do not love the system nor do I get it but I really hope that the next visit we get in faster than we have been.



The doctor did his thing and he said that he is NINTY PERCENT sure we are having a GIRL. Her name will be Sophie Lee Pyles and we are starting to look into bedding, thinking of ideas for her room. It is going to be great to get everything all ready for her arrival. Life is going to change greatly in so many ways but we couldn't be happier for it!!!!!



I will try to add the video of the ultrasound if not thenI will add my belly pic that I had Derrick take of me that week. Thanks for readingour story~

A step forw@rd

Oh where do I start with all our changes. Our new little addition is growing and getting a little bigger each day. Heather has been so sweet to give me items from when the twins were little and are grown out of!!! Thanks SiS~ I feel like all I ever want to do is sleep and to tell you the true if life would allow me to I would be the first to sign up at this point. A few weeks ago I was walking around all hunched over because I had some major back pains ~OUCH~ it hurt. I finally got a doctor appointment to be adjusted (recommend that to everyone AMAZING) and now I am doing so much better. Dr Elmore is so wonderful. I did find out that when us girls get pregnant we will release a hormone that allows your joints to be able to move so that we can have babies. Well when you are about to pop and your getting close to the end.Well it really starts to bother women and they have major back pains...... well I will be 15 weeks tomorrow and I am already having issues. Please somebody explain WHY ME?????


On a happier note I am still in the works of planning the baby shower for Bevy! I think that we are getting really close to having everything ready to be a GREAT day. Well I don't know how to make anything without having step by step instructions in front of me.... seriously I am not kidding =} so my friend Carla has been taking time to find some great recipes for me!!! Thank you so much for your help~ I am really excited to do this for you Beverly..... hope everything turns out to any expectations that you may have planned.

Derrick will hopefully be able to switch up his work schedule. This not ever seeing him thing has been making me sad and I feel lonely all the time. I really love having you around babe!!!! School is going well for D, I am crossing my fingers that he will be able to get through these next few months. We are hoping that he will GRADUATE this October, right after the baby is born, and be ready to start the next chapter in our lives!!! Please someone tell me that being freaked out a little about being a parent in normal?!?!?!?! I hope that I can handle all the stress this little bean is going to cause me for the rest of our live is totally normal. I feel like this will be the most incredible thing that I will have gone through in my years.

Little Bean I am so happy to find out what we may be calling you in the near future!! You really bring so much happiness to myself and your father. Life is going to change dramatically for us all. We will do our best to give you the best life that we have to offer.
~XOXO your loving mother~
