T-Ball Season

I've really been slacking lately - mostly because of how tired I've been! Addi started T-Ball a few weeks ago and only has 3 games left! I can't believe her season came and went just like that. She has been doing excellent this year and is by far one of the better hitters on her team. She can get the ball all the way into the grass which is pretty impressive for T-Ball and a kid her age! She has also got the conecpt of tagging down and loves to chase the other kids with the ball (of course). Her favorite position to play is catcher becuase in T-Ball she feels it's the only "outfield" position that isn't boring... she has a lot of fun doing it! Hopefully she gets to play coach pitch/machine pitch next year because she is getting a little bored with T-Ball! :)

28 Week Bumpdate

How far along? 28 Weeks

Maternity clothes? Yep

Sleep? Some thanks to the heartburn medication!

Best moment in the past 4 weeks? Getting Baby A's crib set, stroller & carseat - now just have to put everything together!

Movement? Lots of kicks especially in the morning when I first wake up & right before I go to bed.

Food cravings? Vanilla Pudding & Corn Nuts (no not together....)

Aversions? Anything super spicy that will have MAJOR consequences later.

Symptoms? Backaches, Headaches, Fatigue

Gender? Still a Girl as far as we know :) Baby A isn't 100% cooperative in this area... I have another ultrasound scheduled in 2 and 1/2 weeks and we will triple check then!

Labor signs? I have about 5-6 mild contractions everyday and a ton of Braxton Hicks all day long... hopefully this baby stays in there at least another 8 weeks or so. :)

Belly button in/out? In

What I miss: Pretty soon I will miss riding rides... between Lagoon in 2 weeks and Disneyland in 4 I am sad that I will have to take tons of pictures of the kids enjoying the rides and not go on a single one!
What I am looking forward to: Like I said above we are going to Lagoon for Nationals - Dr Appt/Ultrasound - Addi's 7th Birthday and Disneyland!

Milestones: No major milestones since I last posted - got my 30 week ultrasound set up to make sure the baby is doing good. She kicks alot more now and I am 100% positive she is still head down. I don't think she'll ever be anything but ready to come out, silly girl! We have about 11 weeks left and we'll be holding this sweet baby in our arms!

Competition/Recital Season

We're back to the annual competition season post - Addi has been performing her little heart out lately! Over the last couple of weeks she has danced & clogged in the PHS Cheer Review, she has competed in the Rammette Review competition and performed at her Ballet recital. She loves every minute of being on stage so this is not a terrible thing for her! They won Superior for both of their dances at the Rammette Review (bascially 2nd place) Superior Plus is perfect scores from all judges. They competed well and were all really pleased with themselves! Thanks to everyone who helped me with Kam & costume changes and of course everyone who made it to watch her perform! She loves having people there to cheer her on and it makes my life easier as well. :) 

Kam's 1st Soccer Season

Well Kam's first soccer season is well underway - but being the coach I can't exactly run around the field with my camera... so I had to wait until someone came to a game with me to take pictures! Kam has an absolute blast playing for about the first 2 quarters... after that her interest takes a major decline and she basically prances around the field, picks flowers and practices her beauty queen wave. :) I'm not sure we'll play spring soccer again because it has been FAR TOO COLD. We've had at least 1 game cancelled on account of the snow - so I think we may just stick to fall soccer where it usually only snows the last game.

24 Week Bumpdate

How far along? 24 Weeks
Maternity clothes? Yep

Sleep? Non-Existent

Best moment in the past 4 weeks? Getting an ultrasound with better pictures of baby A :)

Movement? Lots of kicks - the whole family has felt them now :)

Food cravings? Costa Vida :)

Aversions? BBQ Sauce... it makes me think my stomach is going to eat right through my body! I am so over the heartburn!

Symptoms? Backaches, Headaches, Fatigue and did I mention Heartburn!??!?!

Gender? Our baby T went from a boy to a GIRL!! :) We are so excited for baby A to come! No one was really surprised when they told us it was a girl we all thought that from the beginning. Addi was sad at first but now I think she's pretty excited about having another sister.
Labor signs? Nope Braxton Hicks have started but no labor signs yet.

Belly button in/out? In

What I miss: Energy... eating the things I love and not having heartburn!
What I am looking forward to: Kam's 1st soccer game, competition season, Nationals, summer, Disneyland :) lots of things!

Milestones: Seeing baby A on the ultrasound twice, feeling her kick all the time now, Jake feeling her kick for the first time as well as Kam. She's measuring ahead which is nice :) and we only have 15 weeks or less left!
