Home Expansion Project 2017

We are adding on!

Our three bedroom- two bath house is expanding.... ok, maybe just my belly is expanding.

Little did we know, when we purchased a three bedroom/ two bath house that would we out grow it in the first 2 years of marriage.
We were married May 30 2015, moved into our home in June 1 2015 and brought Jamyson home in mid-October. This maxed out our three bedrooms leaving no room for an office or guest room. Brianna went from being an only child to having to share a bathroom and her "life" with her little sister.

Beginning in July, we will be adding a new addition to our household. God has blessed us with another bundle of joy! Although we do not have enough rooms in our house, we will figure out a way to make it work :)

We don't know the sex of the baby yet but are hoping to find out soon enough!
I would love to bring a little boy into the mix of our two girls. When I first met Rob in 2009, he worked for his dads lawn care business and mowed lawns all summer long. Since then, I've always pictured Rob with a son dressed head to toe in John Deere and cowboy boots.

However, if we were meant to have a family of all girls, I don't think Rob would complain one bit. He falls hook line and sinker for the ladies of our household and he does a good job of keeping up with all of us.

I've always pictured myself as a "boy mom" but I apparently God thinks of me as "girl mom".

Baby #3 is due July 11th. Rob's birthday is July 10. Hopefully, this one doesn't act like his sisters and try to stay in past the due date.

That's all for now

27 Weeks Pregnancy Update

27 weeks today. Is this the third trimester or not?!? Some websites say it is, some says 28 is. So, I'm not too sure. Weight Gain: 33.3 lbs total. Only half a pound of away from what I gained with Jamyson and I still have 13 weeks left (waaaahhhh.....) I feel huge. I am huge! It's harder to walk and my feet hurt now, lol. Exercise: I'm still walking but I cut back last week and only did 14.7 miles. I broke the 200 miles for the year for the "run the year 2017"! However, the more I walk, the more I eat and the more weight I gain (eek)! Cravings/Diet: I've been craving lemon lime gatorade. Weird right?! It's delicious. I've also been getting reece's blasts from Sonic. They are so good! I threw in a cooke dough blizzard from dairy queen. That was delicious and not helping with my weight gain. Morning Sickness: Still no morning sickness but I'm still taking 2 diclegis every night. Sleep: Didn't nap as much last week. Just didn...

Our Experience with Covid 19

I'm writing to share our experience with Covid-19. With the reopening of the lockdown, many new cases are flooding the world. My husband is the Regional Sales Manager at Century 21 Judge Fite in Rockwall. He has been in real estate for the past seven years. He is an amazing realtor and even better manager. I am very proud of him and I stand behind him no matter what. Saturday July 5th is started feeling ill after a work out. He had recently joined Legends Fit in Rockwall and started a program where he had to lose 25lbs or 6.9% body fat in 6 weeks and he would get a free membership for the year. After 3 weeks and a very strict diet and workout, he had lost close to 20 lbs and 5.3% body fat. He started running a fever Saturday afternoon and felt very fatigued. No real respiratory symptoms and his pulse ox never dropped below 98 percent. His heart rate was double his resting heart rate. He tested on Monday morning and received word Tuesday around 5:30pm that he was pos...

Ashton's Birth Story-VBAC

I started this last pregnancy journey with the goal of finishing my second VBAC. Here's the story (So that I never forget any of my children's birth, I have documented each one's stories)... Around 4pm on Thursday August 1, 2019, I went into the hospital. I was having irregular contractions, dilated to 2 cm and 50% effaced. I was 39 weeks and 3 days pregnant. Here is a photo: I am almost 6 feet tall and had gained nearly 50 lbs. Most of which I gained in the first and second trimester. I continued to workout this whole pregnancy in hopes that my body would bounce back quicker. Time will tell. So, my doctor came in around 5:30pm and said he was going to do the foley cervical dilation balloon again since that worked with Elizabeth. So, they inserted the foley balloon which is extremely painful because I have a tilted cervix which apparently hides behind my spine. He tried to do it with a tool and ended up having to do it manually with his hands. Then, I ...
