Thanks, I'm excited to be back. I have been doing pretty good. Baby is growing well and just like Annabelle looks exactly like Stephen from what we could tell on the 3D ultrasound. My hips are starting to hurt though. I had the same issue with Annabelle but it wasnt until I was about 30 weeks along. I just got the Leachco Back 'N Belly Contoured Body Pillow to hopefully help and last night was my first night with it. Its HUGE and I keep telling Stephen he may have to sleep on the couch as I get bigger.
MIL is here. She came here Christmas eve and is kind of doing her own thing. Were surprised to see that she doesn't get up until 3pm every day which is nice because I dont have to deal with her all that much but I was hoping to get some help around the house. She stays up all night playing computer games and the internet so we started monitoring her computer use and turning off the internet at midnight every night. Were hoping to get her back on the normal schedule of not being a bum. She was supposed to leave beginning of Jan but I heard no news of her leaving her.
How are you doing? 'm going to have to catch up on your blog some time, I totally let mine go. I'm so excited you are having a boy! I just got a bunch of baby boy stuff at Once Upon A Child because they were having a 50% off sale on fall clothes. Granted they are for next fall but any sale helps since we have no boy clothing!
Me too, I dont remember last time I bought clothes for Annabelle retail price. I wish they had a Once Upon A Pregnancy for maternity clothes! Thats stuff isnt cheap and you never use them again (even though I would be happy to wear elastic jeans all my life)
that sucks about your MIL, but I guess its not suprising. and i'm sorry about the back pain. that doesn't sound awesome. how far along are you now? I was thinking you were 2 or 3 weeks ahead of me.
and we're very lucky with clothes because my older sister has soooo much boy stuff and her newest baby is a girl so she's looking to unload boy stuff so i'm sure we'll pick up a card load of boy goodies next time we're in Ohio

Now that is an amazing idea!!!! The cost of maternity clothes is part of the reason I'd like to get pregnant with #2 around the same time....that and the fact that our gender neutral clothing would fit either way! Have you ever gone to their brown bag sale? They should be having one soon they told me...15$ for all you can fit of the clearance items in the bag. I got 42 pieces when I was pregnant..half boy half girl....not bad for $15!

This is us but with Annabelle. I barely had to get anything since we got everything from an old neighbor. I guess I cant complain since I didnt have to shop before.
